About this Item

Wiesbaden, Dr Ludwig Reichert Verlag, 2002. 1st edition 575 pp. cloth hardcover . Series: Contributions to Tibetan Studies vol. 1. Since the 12th century, a central feature of Buddhism in Tibet was its harmonizing of tantric practice with the moral codes of monastic discipline and Bodhisattva altruism. All masters maintained the vajrayana or tantric path to be superior to the two lower codes, but they described this superiority differently. In the present study, Jan-Ulrich Sobisch explores for the first time in detail the three main strategies maintained by the oldest Tibetan schools for explaining the relations of the three codes. near fine condition.
