Beskrivning
Today’s foremost yoga researcher offers a clear and lively introduction to the history, philosophy, and practice of the Tantric spiritual tradition
Tantra—often associated with Kundalini Yoga—is a fundamental dimension of Hinduism, emphasizing the cultivation of “divine power” (shakti) as a path to infinite bliss. Tantra has been widely misunderstood in the West, however, where its practices are often confused with eroticism and licentious morality. Tantra: The Path of Ecstasy dispels many common misconceptions, providing an accessible introduction to the history, philosophy, and practice of this extraordinary spiritual tradition.
The Tantric teachings are geared toward the attainment of enlightenment as well as spiritual power and are present not only in Hinduism but also Jainism and Vajrayana Buddhism. In this book, Georg Feuerstein offers readers a clear understanding of authentic Tantra, as well as appropriate guidance for spiritual practice and the attainment of higher consciousness.

En uppenbart väldigt kunnig och seriös författare som samlat mycket matnyttig fakta om tantra i denna bok. För min del var det svårt att ta något i texten till mig innan jag hade läst på om hinduismens, budhismens och yogans historia, och lagt ut grunden, riktlinjerna. Sedan blev detta ett bra komplement som gav tydligare förståelse för uppbyggnaden av tantra. Den fungerar mer som en atlas över tantrans grunder än som en handbok i hur du praktiserar den.
