Vajradakini's Tantra on the Demons: A Sourcework for Women of Wisdom Kindle Edition

This book contains translations of two Tantras: Vajradakini’s Tantra on the Demons and The Tantra on the Precious Vajra Heart in which We Are All One. Both of these Tantras are source works for women of wisdom. In them Vajradakini questions Vajrasattva and Vajradhara on topics including demonology, empowerment, cheating death, transfer, and magical rites of many kinds. The Tantra on the Precious Vajra Heart was received by Padmasambhava from his female teacher Gomadevi, who had received it from her own mother. In this Tantra we find a clear presentation of how we are all one. The names of the translators who put these two Tantras into Tibetan are lost. The tradition holds that these texts come from the time of Padmasambhava, which is the eighth century of our era. They are here translated into a modern language for the first time. Those who are empowered into the mysteries of the Vajrayana and those who are looking for original sources on woman’s empowerment, the nature of demonic energy, and the implementation of the Great Perfection viewpoint will find this book to be an essential resource.
