Description:
Anticipating the many questions Westerners have upon first encountering tantra s colourful imagery and veiled language, Geshe Tsering gives straight talk about deities, initiations, mandalas, and the various stages of tantric development. He even goes through a simple tantric compassion practice written by the Dalai Lama, using it to unpack the building blocks common to all such visualization techniques. Tantra is a fitting conclusion to the accessible and practical wisdom in the Foundation of Buddhist Thought.
