  • TANTRA AND POPULAR RELIGION IN TIBET TANTRA AND POPULAR RELIGION IN TIBET
    by Geoffrey Samuel, Hamish Gregor, Elisabeth Stutchbury

    The papers in this collection, with one exception, originated in a session on Tibet and Himalayan Societies held at the Australian Anthropological Society conference at the University of Newcastle, Australia, in August 1988. The conveners of the session wanted as wide a representation as possible of Tibetan and Himalayan specialists from Australia and New Zealand. They suggested that participants might choose to address a common theme, "Tantra and Everyday Religion". The term "everyday" or "popular" religion was meant to include both the formal religious traditions of Tibetan Buddhism and Bon as part of everyday Tibetan life and the so called "folk religion" (Tucci 1980: 163-212). The theme intended to suggest that Tantra formed an integral part of this whole area of 'everyday religion'.

  • TANTRIC BUDDHISM TANTRIC BUDDHISM
    by N.N. Bhattacharyya

    This volume contains informative and analytical papers by eminent scholars on different aspects of Tantric buddhism and Tantras in general. The essaays throw significant light on the so-called puzzling obscurity of Tantric ideas and practices especially pertaining to the Buddhist Tantras. They demonstrate the richness and variety of Buddhist Tantric literature. They also show that fragments of Mahayanic philosophical ideas lie scattered in the Buddhist Tantras, sometimes as speculations on the nature of the truth and mainly in the context of the ceremonies and secret yogic practices.

  • DAWN OF TANTRA DAWN OF TANTRA
    by Guenther / Chogyam Trungpa Rinpoche

    Westerners wanting to know about tantra - particularly the Buddhist tantra of Tibet - have often had to work with speculation and fancy. In The Dawn of Tantra the reader meets a Tibetan meditation mastre and a Western scholar whose grasp of Buddhist tantra is real and unquestionable. In their collaboration - based on a seminar given in Berkeley, California - Herbert V. Guenther and Chogyam Trungpa offer a balanced view of their subject that avoids the extremes of arid scholarship and facile psychology. In the words of Trungpa Rinpoche, "Professor Guenther and I decided that the best way for us to approach the subject of tantra together is for him to deal with the prajna, or knowledge aspect of it, and for me to deal with the upaya, the skillful means or actual application aspect of it." The resulting discussion is both true to the intent of the ancient Tibetan teachings and relevant to the everyday world of contemporary Westerners.

  • BUDDHIST TANTRA AND BUDDHIST ART BUDDHIST TANTRA AND BUDDHIST ART
    by T.N. Mishra

    In (perhaps) secret defiance of the rigid prescriptive codes of the Buddhist monastic order cropped up a new, esoteric cultic phenomenon. Which, later known as Buddhist tantra, not just compromised Sakyamuni's ethical legacy, but came to be administered by a whole host of Mudras, Mandalas, kriyas, caryas and mysteriously ritualistic elements, even hedonistic practices. Dr. Mishra's book attempts afresh to investigate when, why and how emerged this secrecy-ridden cult: now a spiritual tradition in its own right.
    The author, who has had long, personal interactions with some of the living tantriks, here enters the dark alleys of Buddhist tantra to look for its nucleus, its evolution, its culmination, and the causes of its disintegration. Focussing, further, on the shifting philosophical tenets of Buddhism: from Hinayana to Mahayana, Vajrayana, Kalacakrayana and, finally, Sahajayana, Dr. Mishra spells out quintessentially the worldview of Buddhist tantra and its path to nirvana or sukhavati: the abode of bliss, together with a wide range of tantric concepts that remain guhya (secret) to the uninitiated.
