Description
Tantric Art and Meditation: The Tendai Tradition explores the core practices of Tendai Tantric Buddhism, a unique form of meditation rooted in Japanese tradition. The book delves into the four fundamental meditations of Tantric Buddhism, including the Eighteen-path Mandala, the Lotus-womb Mandala, the Vajra-thunder Mandala, and the Goma Rite of Fire. Profuse woodblock and line art accompany the text, illustrating the intricate mudra, mantra, and mandala of Tantric practice. This comprehensive guide provides insight into the teachings of Tendai Tantric Buddhism, as practiced on Mt. Hiei, Kyoto. The author presents a detailed summary of the Homan devotional (Bakhti) school, one of the major kinds of Tantric Meditation practiced in Japan. Through its unique blend of text and image, Tantric Art and Meditation: The Tendai Tradition offers a profound exploration of the principles and practices of Tantric Buddhism.
