Introduction to Tantra

The Transformation of Desire

De: Lama Thubten Yeshe, Jonathan Landaw - editor

Narrado por: Fajer Al-Kaisi

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.

Informative and easy to absorb.

Informative and easy to absorb. The succinct manner of delivery permitted the content to be easily understood.

Immediately enlightening

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.

Clear book about true tantric tradition

This book is like death, a precious opportunity. Marvellous subject, perfect the voice and tone of the narrator.

Great book but needs different narrator

Great content. Narrator has good voice but he is prouncing sanskrit and tibetan words badly.

Good introduction, need to read other books

I think that there was much emphasis in the point that is possible to attain enlightenment but not enough instruction on how to pursuit this path, as an introductory book is acceptable.
