Grounds and Paths of Secret Mantra, In brief, the Buddhahood achieved over countless aeons you will attain in this birth through the most excellent bliss or the state of Vajradhara. Samputa Tantra Grounds and Paths of Secret Mantra offers a concise overview of the structure of the Tantric path, widely acclaimed in Tibet as the swiftest and most sublime means to realize Buddhahood. Tantra distinguishes itself in particular through a unique combination of method and wisdom, achieved through meditation on the perfect form of a buddha as completely devoid of true existence. Presenting the paths of all four classes of tantra, while not being a guide to Highest Yoga Tantra practice itself, this subject provides a clear overview of its complex path structure.

The text for this subject will be “An Excellent Explanation of the Principles of the Grounds and Paths of Mantra According to the Arya Tradition of Glorious Guhyasamaja” composed by Yangchen Gawai Lodoe.

You can download the text here.

This is an advanced level course on Buddhist philosophy and suitable for those with Highest Yoga Tantra initiation only.
