The Hevajra Tantra

Mehr zum Buch

The author offers a comprehensive translation and commentary on the Hevajra tantra, emphasizing its significance as a vital tantric Buddhist text. Rather than viewing it as a decline of faith, the work argues for its legitimacy as an evolved expression of esoteric practice within the madhyamika tradition. Drawing from Nepalese manuscripts and Tibetan translations, the book is structured with an introductory analysis and annotated translation in the first half, followed by the original Sanskrit and Tibetan texts and an extensive glossary in the second half.
