Wonderful translation and explication of the Carya Gita

A poet's sensitivity to language, combined with clarity of message and detailed, erudite commentary provide an insightful look into the technical language embedded in the vernacular teaching of the great Tantric Siddhas of old Bengal. The commentary seeks to shed light on the skillful means employed by the Siddhas and takes an Ekayana/Pan-Buddhist philosophical approach.
