A new edition of this perennial classic. "The best introductory work on Tibetan Buddhist tantra available today." - Janet Gyatso, Harvard University.

What is tantra? Who is qualified to practice it? How should it be practiced? What are the results? According to Buddhism, every human being has the potential to achieve profound and lasting happiness. And according to the tantric teachings of Buddhism, this remarkable transformation can be realized very quickly if we utilize all aspects of our human energy - especially the energy of our desires. Introduction to Tantra is the best available clarification of a subject that is often misunderstood. Tantra recognizes that the powerful energy aroused by our desire is an indispensable resource for the spiritual path. It is precisely because our lives are so inseparably linked with desire that we must make use of desire's tremendous energy not just for pleasure, but to transform our lives. Lama Yeshe presents tantra as a practice leading to joy and self-discovery, with a vision of reality that is simple, clear, and relevant to 21st-century life.

I felt my yoga practice expanding with each listen, Re listening periodically to layer on more depth of blissful energy. Clear narration made each listen a beautiful experience. Building the foundation, dispelling myths and making strong arguments against incorrect practice serves the listener for quality instruction in a practice that is difficult to describe. Tantra is best taught via experiential action, and thus I further commend this work as well presented.

Immediately enlightening

I found this book very helpful. I am a beginner in meditation so others more advanced may not agree. It’s easy to listen to and follow as well as full of wisdom for a beginning student.

Very helpful!

It would have helped if specific tantra practices were described in detail (posture, mantra, etc)
