W. Y. Evans-Wentz
Lo yoga tibetano e le dottrine segrete. I sette libri di saggezza del grande sentiero
Il presente volume contiene l’unica edizione in lingua occidentale di sette trattati, tradotti dal tibetano, quattro in manoscritto e tre in tavole xilografiche, appartenenti alla tradizione esoterica del Mahayana. I primi quattro offrono una fedele descrizione delle pratiche yogiche che Milarepa mise in pratica con successo quando si ritirò in eremitaggio sulle impervie solitudini nevose degli altipiani himalayani. Per i seguaci odierni di Milarepa esse costituiscono ancora la Luce che illumina il Sentiero che conduce alla Liberazione. Nel quinto trattato si trovano elementi la cui origine va riportata con ogni probabilità all’antica fede Bön molto tempo prima della nascita del Buddhismo tibetano. Il sesto trattato illustra le caratteristiche del Mantra Yoga e dello Yantra Yoga. Il settimo è un’epitome delle dottrine della “Saggezza Trascendente”, nota in tibetano come S’erp’yin e in sanscrito come Prajñaparamita, e costituisce un esempio tipico della metafisica ortodossa che sta alla base dell’intero Lamaismo. La maggior parte dei libri sulle religioni tibetane non sono altro che diari di viaggiatori, mentre uno studio metodologicamente fondato si deve basare su documenti originali. Di qui la necessità di una traduzione accuratamente critica, minuziosamente annotata, di alcuni tra i più affascinanti e più importanti insegnamenti religiosi tramandati per iscritto dal Tibet. Autori: W. Y. Evans-Wentz.

Waddell L. A.
The Buddhism of Tibet or Lamaism
Contents: 1. Historical. 2. Doctrinal. 3. Monastic. 4. Buildings. 5. Mythology and Gods. 6. Ritual and sorcery. 7. Festivals and plays. 8. Popular Lamaism. Appendices. Index. "The special characteristics of the book are its detailed accounts of the external facts and curious symbolisms of Buddhism, and its analyses of the internal movements leading to Lamaism and its sects and cults. It provides material culled from hoary Tibetan tradition and explained by Lamas for elucidating many obscure parts in primitive Indian Buddhism and its later symbolism. Thus a clue is supplied to several dispute doctrinal points of fundamental importance, as for example the formula of the casual nexus. "With this view the nabulous Tibetan "history" so called of the earlier periods has been somewhat critically examined in the light afforded by some scholarly Lamas and contemporary history and all fictitious chronicles, hitherto treated usually as historical and rejected as authoritative for events which happened a thousand years before they were written and for a time when writing was admittedly unknown in Tibet." 598 pp
