About The Book

Lord Buddha, after the attainment of Nirvana under Bodhi Tree at Bodh Gaya through the practice of Tantra Sadhana reflected on the nature and significance of Nirsuna which resulted into the birth of a new school of philosophy and a new religious order known as Buddhism Buddhist Tantra is the sublime and profound form of spirituality. It is monotheistic. It presents the highest form of Monism in Buddhist Tantra, Afya means the eternal co-existence of Prajna and Upaya which constitute the infinite unity and transcendent reality (Boddhi Citta) Buddhist Tantra has made great contribution to the speculative metaphysics in the form of Vijana Vada, (yogacara) and Sunyavada (Madhyamika). The most profound ontological doctrine is considered to be the Madhyamika which claims Sunyata to be intrinsic nature, to be the ultimate mode of existence of phenomenon. One can experience Sunyata only when the mind is liberated from all kinds of mental reification Buddhist Tantra is aware of futality of speculative metaphysics and hence it recommends the practice of intuitional science and esotericism for the realisation of ultimate reality. In this intuitive experience of Prajña and Upaya, essence and existence becomes identical.
