1935 first edition, Mint condition Tibetan Yoga and SECRET DOCTRINES, Evans-Wentz
Nice bookplates of Prof. Antony Charles Thomas. Translated mostly by Kazi Dawa-Samdup. A collection of interesting texts, i.a. about Tumo - how to produce body warmth by way of meditation; Chöd, meditation on dying; and Phowa, transmission of consciousness. Much which is not discussed at this length in modern Buddhist literature.
1935 first edition, in very good, mint condition.

Walter Yeeling Evans-Wentz (February 2, 1878 – July 17, 1965) was an American anthropologist and writer who was a pioneer in the study of Tibetan Buddhism, and in transmission of Tibetan Buddhism to the Western world, most known for publishing an early English translation of The Tibetan Book of the Dead in 1927. Today, Evans-Wentz is best known for four texts translated from the Tibetan: The Tibetan Book of the Dead (1927), Tibet's Great Yogi Milarepa (1928), Tibetan Yoga and Secret Doctrines(1935), and The Tibetan Book of the Great Liberation (1954).
