"The Tantric Mysticism of Tibet"
by John Blofeld
ISBN 0-525-47270-3 E.P. Dutton, New York
This book is deprecated in my booklist for its' affirmation of suffering and sacrifice (page 158 first new paragraph) in "Upon his withdrawal from samadhi for the second time, the actual generation of Bodhicitta commences. Longing for the Liberation of all beings and praying that his own deliverance from Samsara shall take place after theirs, he visualizes the sentient universe as composed of myriads of beings all of which have been his own parents in former lives. [...]". As more and more beings approach liberation, with this affirmation in place we all wind up waiting for each other to go, a logical inversion of what should be our intent that we all upon choice get to ascend when we choose. Meanwhile, delaying the ascension of everyone, it affirms being in suffering as the best place to help others escape suffering, yet we learn best by apeing others, copying what is modelled, thus this is maximally dysfunctional in addition to its' logical impossibility. I do not doubt that John has accurately portrayed what he was taught. Most of the book is an excellent exposition of the tradition, but the practices leave room for improvement, traditional or not. Since one of the points of Tantric practice is the short path to enlightenment, this stands out as a glaring logical contradiction. This being my second reading of the book at a much later point on my private short path than my initial acquisition and reading of it, it is also the point at which I stopped reading and decided to gift it out of my library... 2003-03-04 Angela Kahealani
"The Kama Sutra of Vatsyayana" has been multiply published.
"The Opening of The Way - A Practical Guide to the Wisdom Teachings of Ancient Egypt" by Isha Schwaller de Lubicz ISBN 0-89281-015-7 Inner Traditions, 1 Park St., Rochester, Vermont 05767 While there are many books which teach the chakra system, I have found none which did a better job of linking the aetheric chakra system with the endocrine system with the emotional states of humans.

"The Secret Dakini Oracle" by Nik Douglas & Penny Slinger
ISBN 0-89281-005-X
Destiny Books, One Park St., Rochester, Vermont 05767
Headline: Look Into The Mirror Of Your Mind; The Home Of The Secret Dakinis
Description: The Secret Dakini Oracle is a Tantric system of divination, based on the author's work in the Ranipur Jharial Temple of Orissa, India. The temple contains stone carvings of the 64 Dakinis, ancient symbolic representations of the female principles of intuitive wisdom. The Secret Dakinis are the guardians of the deeper mysteries of the self and it is through them that the secrets of inner transformation are opened. The Dakini archetypes are within each of us and through The Secret Dakini Oracle, we can contact their power and wisdom. A companion Secret Dakini Oracle Deck of Cards is available for use in preforming Oracle readings. Highly recommended by Angela Kahealani... It's my tantric version of Tarot-ish style reading of subconscious and/or spiritual energies generated in the aetheric, mental, emotional, or physical bodies.
