Two Esoteric Sutras (Bdk English Tripitaka Translation Series)

Translated by Rolf W. Giebel, this volume contains two of the most important scriptures of the Esoteric Buddhist tradition of East Asia, taken from eighth century Chinese sources. The Adamantine Pinnacle Sutra is a section of the Buddhist tantric scripture called "Sarvatathagatatattvasamgraha," one of the Yoga tantras, and the second text is the Susiddhikara Sutra which is one of the Kriya ("Action") tantras.
