Summary
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.

Great Wisdom
I have learned a lot for my personal journey ahead. Especially for my inner life and the way I really want to be. Highly recommended if you believe you have an spiritual opening that calls for wisdom and knowledge that can’t really be transmitted with words.

The fact that this was read by an American opens it up to the world.

Not at all what I had expected
I suppose I had many preconceptions about tantra. The book does not describe a sexual practice but a philosophical framework. I might disagree with this framework in some points but I am nonetheless wiser and might adapt some of these practices.

A Great Introduction
Not over cluttered with jargon and technical words. I really liked this book. It gets straught to the point, metaphors used to describe difficult ideas are well chosen and easy to grasp.

Great introduction to Tantra
It’s a good introduction to Tantra. Written by the great Tibetan yogi Lama Yeshe, it gives an insight into the practice and science behind Tantric Buddhism.
The performer has a clear, calm and enjoyable voice.
