El Libro Tibetano de Los Muertos (Spanish, Paperback)

Written in the eighth century, "The Tibetan Book of the Dead" is the most important of many mortuary texts of the Nyingma sect of Tibetan Buddhism and is commonly recited by or to a person facing imminent death. Robert A. Thurman's expert translation--with in-depth commentary, supplementary and background information, and even the occasional illustration--presents the Buddhist tradition in terms that even the most inexpert of readers can understand. What emerges in the pages is Buddhism's profound message that death, far from being an end point, is actually a primary step on the path to liberation. "Escrito en el siglo VIII, "El libro tibetano de los muertos "es el mas importante de varios textos mortuorios de la secta Nyingma del budismo tibetano, y normalmente es recitado por o se le recita a una persona a punto de morir. La traduccion experta de Robert A. Thurman--la cual incluye comentarios exhaustivos, informacion suplementaria y de fondo y hasta algunas ilustraciones--presenta esta tradicion budista en terminos que hasta el mas inexperto de los lectores podra entender. Lo que resalta en estas paginas es el mensaje profundo del budismo que la muerte, lejos de ser un punto final, es un paso primario en la senda hacia la liberacion."
