Description: If mysticism is defined, in its broader sense, as "the Doctrine that direct knowledge of 'God' or spiritual truth is attainable through immediate intuition," Tibetan Tantrism can also be considered as a form of mysticism. The problem here is, of course, in what sense to understand the terms "knowledge," "God," "spiritual truth," and "intuition." A careful analysis of the use of these words immediately bring into the open the complex and divergent concepts behind them, and no generally agreed understanding seems to be at hand. Despite the apparent similarity of the various forms of mysticism, great differences do exist between them. But to point out the differences in detail, a thorough knowledge of all these systems is needed, together with personal experience of each of them as verified by scores of mystics. These requirements are indeed too difficult, if not impossible, for any individual to fulfill today. The author's aim is not, therefore, to make a critical study of Tibetan Tantrism versus other forms of mysticism, but to introduce to the general reader several important texts hitherto unavailable in European languages.
