Summary:"This book is intended as a general introduction to the history of Tantric traditions: what it is, where it fits into the history of South Asia and beyond, what its links are to Hinduism and Buddhism, and how contemporary Tantra transforms the older tradition. The book is entitled Tantric Knowledge because Tantric traditions claim to possess knowledge about the nature of the universe, the nature of ourselves as human beings, and how we fit into the wider cosmos around us; Tantric knowledge is what the texts and traditions profess. The study of these traditions raises interesting questions of both historical and existential importance"-- Provided by publisher.
