Buddhist Symbols
in Tibetan Culture
By Dagyab Rinpoche. 6" x 9", 145 pages, paperback. In this
fascinating study, the author not only explains the nine best-known groups
of Tibetan Buddhist symbols, but also shows how they serve as bridges between
our inner and outer worlds. "The Queen's Earrings, The Fur-Bearing
Fish, and The Endless Knot", as well as other rich, colorful symbols
are discussed. Born in Tibet, the author immigrated to Germany in the 1960s
where he now lives and teaches Tibetan and Budhist Studies at the University
of Bonn. Published by Wisdom Publications. |
