3-0 out of 5 stars A tour of Javanese mysticism.
I gave this book three stars although overall it deserved four stars because of it's interesting topic, but I found some of the material poorly organized or hard to pull together, so I decided to give it three stars.In spite of this mild criticism, the author, Tara, did fulfill her spiritual obligation to her guru in presenting a textual background to Indonesian mysticism and the special tantric form of Buddhism existing in Indonesia.I really enjoyed the chapter on Borobudur and I hope one day the author does a book solely on that topic, which is incredibly fascinating.I think this is a book that anyone interested in Indonesia or in Buddhism should purchase and would certainly enjoy reading.

4-0 out of 5 stars A fascinating source book of esoteric Javanese Buddhism.
I found this book to be a fascinating source book in esoteric Javanese Buddhism. It quotes extensively from European esoteric scholars, theosophical thinkers, Buddhist scholars, as well as from Javanese sources. It attempts to undercover the underlying Buddhist culture of the country now called Indonesia, showing that the Islam overlay is a recent phenomena which has not eradicated the taproot of classical tantric Buddhism imported from India. It is also a personal spiritual voyage by the author, with great sincerity and humility. The central focus of the book is the great monument of Borobudur, which was visited and blessed by His Holiness the Dalai Lama in the 1980's. I think readers interested in South East Asian culture, in Java and Bali, and in Buddhism will find the book very interesting.

4-0 out of 5 stars AN INNER WORLD OF REALITY REVEALED.
In this new book by Olivia de Haulliville, daughter of Baron de Haulliville, a new landscape has been uncovered & disclosed to the eye of the beholder.You will not believe some of the spiritual "facts" disclosed in this book, especially concerning the mysterious umbilicus of a spiritual nexus called Boroburdur, which is one of the greatest archaelogical sites in the world, rivalling the Gizeh pyramids and Machu Picchu in both beauty and spiritual importance.Beneath the surface of current manifestations of Islam in Indonesia, in Java and in Bali is a melange of Hinduism and Buddhism which is ancient, being a direct transfer from classical Buddhism of India at the time of Emperor Asoka. This book is about that hidden vein in the body of Java, that tradition of occult Buddhism and the mysterious aspects of it as it shows itself in Javanese life.It is a book that every library should have, whether institutional or private, giving a general guide through the fundamentals of Javanese Buddhism, a rarely examined topic.Here are shamans, mystics, landscapes from dreams, with copious quotations from the Europeans who first investigated Java as well as the scholars and mystics of Java themselves. ...
