The Wisdom of Tantra, Paperback

How did the universe begin? What is the purpose of human existence? How does the mind work? What happens to us when we die? These are just some of the questions addressed in The Wisdom of Tantra. Based on the teachings of Shrii Shrii Anandamurti, a guru and philosopher who is considered one of the greatest thinkers of the twentieth century, The Wisdom of Tantra begins with the origins of Tantra and yoga and proceeds to unravel the mysteries of cosmology, the nature of the mind, the eight limbs of yoga, chakras, dharma, and reincarnation, as well as explaining how spirituality can provide solutions to the most pressing social, economic, and political challenges of our times. "The Wisdom of Tantra is a clear and concise summary of the key concepts of Tantra yoga. Many of my students have used this book as their introduction to the philosophical foundations of their yoga practice." -- Bruce Viveka McEwen, PhD.
