"A wide-ranging compendium of Hindu, Tantric, Shaivite texts almost
impossible to find in one place elsewhere. . . . a comprehensive
and provocative commentary on the basic and advanced precepts of
Tantric yoga. Written with literate modesty and erudition, this
book is an invaluable resource."— Publishers Weekly
"Georg Feuerstein, who is arguably today's foremost Yoga
researcher, has given us yet another very valuable book. Tantra:
The Art of Ecstasy is the first nonacademic but sound and
well-rounded introduction to the Hindu Tantric heritage since Sir
John Woodroffe's pioneering publications of the 1920s. It corrects
many widespread misconceptions and shows Tantrism to be a complex
and intriguing tradition that deserves deeper study. Recommended
reading for all students of Hinduism, Yoga, and spirituality in
general."—Professor Subhash Kak, Ph.D., author of India at
Century's End and coauthor of In Search of the Cradle of
Civilization
