The Yogavacara’s Manual of Indian Mysticism as Practiced by Buddhists is a comprehensive guidebook to the practices and principles of Yogavacara, an ancient Buddhist tradition that emphasizes meditation and spiritual development. Written by T.W. Rhys Davids, a renowned scholar of Buddhism and Indian philosophy, this book explores the history, philosophy, and practical techniques of Yogavacara, drawing on a wide range of ancient texts and teachings. The book begins with an overview of the Buddhist path to enlightenment, including the Four Noble Truths and the Eightfold Path. It then delves into the specific practices of Yogavacara, such as mindfulness meditation, concentration, and visualization. The author provides detailed instructions on how to practice these techniques, as well as advice on overcoming obstacles and developing spiritual insight.Throughout the book, Davids emphasizes the importance of ethical conduct and compassion in Yogavacara practice, and shows how these principles are integrated into the various meditation techniques. He also explores the role of the teacher in the tradition, and offers guidance on finding a qualified instructor.Overall, The Yogavacara’s Manual of Indian Mysticism as Practiced by Buddhists is a valuable resource for anyone interested in the history and practice of Buddhism, as well as those seeking practical guidance on meditation and spiritual development.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
