About This Item
Berkeley, CA: Shambhala, 1985. Translated & Annotated by Alex Wayman 4to size horizontal orange clothbound hardcover with dust jacket; 123 pages From dust jacket: "This is the first English translation of one of the most revered and often-used tantric texts in Tibetan Buddhism. While consisting of only 160 verses and some mantra sentences, the work condenses an enormous tantric lore, so much that it garnered exalted mention in the Vimalaprabha - the great commentary on the Kalackra - and is cited a number times in the celebrated tantrist Naropa's Hevajratantra commentary... The English translation (is set) alongside the complete original Sanskrit, with its Tibetan translation." The book has a slightly cocked spine which will likely correct under the weight of a heavy book. There is a slight curl to the bottom corner of the last five or so pages. Jacket has light wear and a deep scratch on front. . Cloth. Good/Good. 4to - over 9¾" - 12" tall.
