What is tantra? Who is qualified to practice it? How should it be practiced? What are the results?

"...as lucid an explanation of Buddhist tantra - a system of transformation - as you are likely to find. This is a wonderful addition to a new Dharma literature in English that is developing in our time. It has already become a classic. " - Phillip Glass
"No other member of the tradition has ever talked about tantra with such clarity, coherence and simplicity, and no one has summarized the essence of tantra so well as Thubten Yeshe does here." - Religious Studies Review
About the Author:
Lama Yeshe (1935–1984) was born in Tibet and educated at the great Sera Monastic University. He fled the Chinese oppression in 1959 and in the late 1960s, with his chief disciple, Lama Thubten Zopa Rinpoche, began teaching Buddhism to Westerners at their Kopan Monastery, Kathmandu, Nepal. In 1975 they founded the international Buddhist organisation, the Foundation for the Preservation of the Mahayana Tradition (FPMT), which now has about 80 branches worldwide.
