An enormous relief to discover a book in English that authentically represents the Tantric tradition. The difference between the manner in which Tantra is usually described in the West and the way I’ve seen it actually practiced in India is so vast I can scarcely believe the same topic is being addressed. David Frawley presents the living practices of Tantra in their true colors, against the backdrop of a millennial tradition of astonishing beauty and profundity. I am especially grateful that he is introducing Western readers to the major goddesses of the Hindu esoteric system. We are only now “discovering” the Goddess in the West; in India She was never lost. Dr. Frawley’s new book provides invaluable insights into the most ancient continuously practiced Goddess tradition in the world.” Linda Johnsen Author, Daughters of the Goddess: The Women Saints of India

Tantric Yoga and the Wisdom Goddesses is an excellent introduction to the essence of Hindu Tantrism. The author discusses all the major concepts and offers valuable corrections for many existing misconceptions. He also introduces the reader to the core Tantric practices of meditation and mantra recitation, focusing on the Ten Wisdom Goddesses.
