Tibet’s Great Yogi Milarepa By W.Y. Evans-Wentz
Tibet’s Great Yogi Milarepa By W.Y. Evans-Wentz
Publishing: 1951 by Oxford University Press, Second Edition
Tune into one of the most illustrious of Tibetan saints, Milarepa. Considered the most successful follower of Buddha, Milarepa was able to fully evolutionize his elemental abilities. Mainly through his yogic practices, he had the ability of bodily flight through the air, or levitation, and despite living in the harsh regions of Tibet, he was able to sustain himself with very little or no food at all. Through an “osmosis-like” process, where more often than not, he only needed air, water, and sunshine. Much like a plant is able to produce chlorophyll. Is this fact or fiction? You decide. SUPER RARE
Condition: Very Good / former library book with no usual markings except for authors name in white on spine (refer to pictures)
“I am Milarepa, great in fame,
The direct offspring of Memory and Wisdom;
Yet an old man am I, forlorn and naked.
From my lips springeth forth a little song,
For all Nature, at which I look,
Serveth me for a book.
The iron staff, that my hands hold,
Guideth me over the Ocean of Changing Life.
Master am I of Mind and Light;
And, in showing feats and miracles,
Depend not on earthly deities.” - Milarepa, From the Gur-Bum
