Download or read book Iconography of Tibetan Lamaism written by Antoinette K. Gordon and published by Tuttle Publishing. This book was released on 2016-09-13 with total page 426 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Iconography of Tibetan Lamaism is an authoritative text on the specifically Tibetan branch of Buddhism--one which possesses a rich visual history of Buddhist art and Iconagraphy. This book gives a descriptive outline of the principal gods in the Tibetan pantheon, tracing the main features and symbols that are used to denote each one. A Comprehensive illustrated list of the various ritual objects, talismans, symbols, mudras (symbolic hand poses), and asanas and vahanas (position of the lower limbs) that are used in the images of the gods is accompanied with a word list of the Sanskrit terms most commonly encountered in a study of Lamaism. A set of thirty-one thang-kas from the famous collection of Baron A. von Stael-Holstein, formerly of Peking, China, which came to America after the publication of the original edition of the book, has been included in this new and revised edition.
Download or read book Religions Of Tibet written by Tucci, and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2012-11-12 with total page 358 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Very little is known in the West about Tibetan Buddhism in comparison with other eastern religions. This is partly because the vast literature which it has produced, and which illuminates its history, is still far from accessible. In addition there exists a deep division between monastic Lamaism and religion as it is lived by the people: the former is fragmented into many schools, while the latter shows numerous regional variations. The first comprehensive account of Tibetan Buddhism to be published in English since Waddell's "Buddhism of Tibet" appeared in 1894, this translation is certain to become the standard reference work on the subject.

Download or read book Enthralled written by Christine A. Chandler C.A.G.S. and published by Bookbaby. This book was released on 2018-12-19 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Interest in Tibet and Tibetan Buddhism has grown among many demographics in the United States and the West, today. The Dalai Lama and his 'Buddhism' has been promoted as bringing more 'peace, harmony, and compassion' to the world. Now the Dalai Lama and his inner circle of western devotees and fans are promoting his MIndfulness as the key to physical, mental and spiritual health. By explaining the true nature of Tibetan Lamaism and its Tantric roots, as well as the cult methods of recruitment and entrapment that the Tibetan Lamas use, the author opens the eyes of westerners to the dangers Tibetan Tantric Buddhism and its influences continue to present to our open, democratic and free societies.
