Details: Tibetan Vajrayana Buddhism is rapidly becoming a part of our cultural landscape, an element of human civilisation with its own universal appeal. Nevertheless public awareness remains limited concerning the great teachers and visionaries who over fourteen centuries formulated and expounded the system of thought which in the 21st century seems the most contemporary of the world religions. This unique collection of 25 postcards is based upon the groundbreaking book, Portraits of the Masters: Bronze Sculptures of the Tibetan Buddhist Lineages , edited by Donald Dinwiddie. Prefaced with a comprehensive history of Tibetan portraiture, the book unfolds for the first time a pictorial history of a dynamic and living religious tradition.
