What was best about the book is that it incorporated some important invocations that many Tibetan Buddhists say, regardless of what school they may practice. What was harder to follow was the condensation of the Six Yogas that constituted the second part of the book. Since I have another, fuller translation of such, that may be just an inconvenience for me. It may, however, arouse the curiosity of the novice practitioner and encourage that person to find a proper teacher. Sadly, as I have noticed over the past 50-60 years or so, there are many works in Tibetan that remain only.in the original language, books that Garma Chang refers to in the text. (less)

3.0 out of 5 stars Challenging but Rewarding

This book has some lofty disclaimer work at the beginning.
That, combined with some of the broken language and esoteric references initially makes it a hard read.
But it does a pretty good job of helping the reader visualize the techniques for various Tibetan Yoga techniques.
The discussion in roughly the middle of the book about Heat Yoga is my favorite.
If you are researching for descriptions of the techniques or theories behind Tibetan Yoga, this is a pretty good one.
I encourage you to read the terms in the back of the book. There are lots of footnotes and references to them.
Without doing so, it makes the book harder to read, due to the shear volume of new words.
