Description
This volume introduces the reader to the principles of Buddhist tantra, or Vajrayana Buddhism, which are based on meditation and discovery of 'egolessness'. Journey Without Goal provides a direct picture of the tantric world, explaining the mandala, energy, the role of the teacher, and the various differences between Buddhist and Hindu tantra. Based on talks given by Trungpa at Naropa University, this is a volume written for the Buddhist student rather than the scholar.
