Yantra: The Tantric Symbol of Cosmic Unity

Thông tin sách: Yantra: The Tantric Symbol of Cosmic Unity (Hardcover, 176 trang) – Thames & Hudson, 1997. Ngôn ngữ: Tiếng Anh.

The yantra is the Tantric tool of ritual and meditation, the power diagram that allows man to make the spiritual journey of return to the primordial center, and ultimately to perceive the unity of self and cosmos. This pioneering study illuminates the correspondence between geometrical forms and concepts, and explores every aspect of the yantra: its associated mantras, rituals, and meditation techniques; its application to temple architecture and sculpture; its traditional use in magic and as a talisman.
