With Buddhist Tantra, Naropa University’s Reginald Ray offers a landmark recording to address this need. In 12 in-depth sessions distilled from his years as a practitioner, meditation teacher, and scholar, Ray takes us into the secret heart of the Vajra World to explore: the tantric view of human nature and reality, detailed teachings on the major dimensions of Vajrayana practice, preparation for initiates, the role of the “tantric mentor,” and much more. Includes descriptions of specific visualizations, liturgies, inner yogas of the tantric way, as well as the “essence teachings” of Mahamudra Dzogchen.Book DescriptionThe popular or “exoteric” teachings of Tibetan Buddhism are known to millions, yet, the universe of its esoteric or “tantric” teachings remains hidden to all but a few.
