Publisher's Synopsis
In Buddhist Masters of Enchantment, Robert Beer, having studied with the greatest living painters of the Tibetan tradition, offers up mesmerizing polychrome images of legendary tantric masters. The illustrations accompany a modern translation of a centuries-old text that in the hands of Tibetan Buddhist initiate Keith Dowman reads as enchantingly as the Brothers Grimm. Buddhist Masters of Enchantment is a rich achievement, worthy of the great mahasiddhas it depicts, men and women who attained spectacular powers of enlightenment within their lifetimes.
