Product Description
(Trade Paper, 5.5 x 8.5, 1999, Religion)
"Like the Tibetan Book of the Dead, this key text for the understanding of Tibetan Buddhism dates back to the time of Padma Sambhava, who may himself have been its author. It sets forth the essence of Mahayana Buddhism, and in this edition is accompanied by the biography of Padma Sambhava. The lengthy and scholarly introduction by Evans-Wentz is again an important commentary on the text itself and the doctrine it contains." - John Pinfold, Tibet (Clio Press)
