Tantric Ethics. Explanation of ethical principles of Vajrayana Buddhism practice

The central place in Tibetan Buddhism occupy esoteric techniques of tantric tradition, or Vajrayans. These practices include the pronouncement of mantras and complex visualization and are transferred from the teacher to the student through the sacred dedication ceremonies. Tantric practice is the basis of the daily practice of Tibetan Buddhism, but it cannot be successful without compliance with tantric ethics - the ethical code for anyone who wants to achieve success on the path of Vajrayana. Tantric vows are the highest system of vises of Tibetan Buddhism, following the system of monastic vises of Pratimajaschi and Mahayana Voises system.

Scientist and adept Tantra Zongkapa (1357-1419) is one of the greatest philosophers in the culture of Tibetan Buddhism. His works affect all aspects of Buddhist philosophy and practice. This book contains the translation of its work & quot, the fruit borders of Siddhi & Quot, which gives a detailed explanation of the content of each tantric vow and the criteria to determine which behavior leads to a violation of each of these vows
