TIBETAN YOGA AND SECRET DOCTRINES
By W.Y. Evans-Wentz

Synopsis: a collection of Tibetan Buddhist meditation and yogic teachings presented for an English-speaking audience. The book assembles seven traditional “books” (texts or text-sections) that describe advanced contemplative practices aimed at transforming ordinary perception and realizing enlightenment. Across the selections, it explains core ideas such as the cultivation of concentration and insight, the disciplined use of mind, breath, and visualization, the role of mantra and ritual, and the guidance of a guru/lineage. Evans-Wentz frames these teachings with substantial introductions and annotations, often comparing Tibetan doctrines to Indian philosophy, Western psychology, and comparative religion.
