Tantra; or Vajrayana; Buddhism is a set of esoteric practices that involve mantra recitation and complex visualizations. Tantra constitutes the fabric of a Tibetan Buddhist's daily practice; but no practice of tantra can be successful without adherence to the tantric precepts; the highest of three complementary sets of vows. Tsongkhapa is perhaps the greatest philosopher ever produced by Tibet's Buddhist culture; and this book is a translation of his explanation of the tantric precepts.
