Abstract

The article analyzes the main stages of interrelations development between the Soviet state and the Buddhist healthcare system (Tibetan medicine) in the 1920-1930s: reforming, confrontation, repressions and elimination. As a result of these interrelations development the authorities preferred not to integrate the Tibetan medicine into the state healthcare system, but to sacrifice it for the sake of the total eradication of the Buddhist confession.
