Description
The book Psychology of Buddhist Tantra clarifies the essence of tantric practice in a very accessible way, without simplifying it into a set of rational opinions, practical exercises, and techniques. Rob Preece does not attempt to defend the undeniably evocative and darkly impressive language and imagery of tantra, but shows that it consists of transformative symbols of our rich and diverse inner life. Unlike conventional religions, tantra does not seek to calm the tumult of existence with comforting promises of paradise and salvation. The tantrik is determined to confront the confusing and chaotic forces of fear, aggression, desire, and pride, and to work with them so that they lead to creativity, loving relationships, and a wise understanding of life.
