Principles of Tantra

by Arthur Avalon

A two-volume English rendering of the Tantratattva of the Bengali teacher Shiva Chandra Vidyarnava, with introductions by the Avalon circle. It defends tantric doctrine and practice from within the Bengali Shakta tradition and is an important source for how that tradition presented itself in the early twentieth century.
