Spectrum of Ecstasy: The Five Wisdom Emotions According to Vajrayana Buddhism

Here
two Western-born lamas of the Nyingma tradition of Vajrayana Buddhism explore
what it means to be utterly emotionally alive. Written in contemporary,
nonacademic language, this book is a radical challenge to the misconception
that inner Vajrayana is primarily an esoteric system of ritual and liturgy. The
authors teach that emotions can be embraced as a rich and profound opportunity
for realization. This fiercely compassionate battle cry rallies all who are
audacious enough to appreciate emotions for their supreme potential as vehicles
for awakening.
