5.0 out of 5 stars This is a terrific volume, June 28, 2005
This review is from: Mudra: A Study of Symbolic Gestures in Japanese Buddhist Sculpture (Paperback)
I saw this book at the local Drikung Kagyu monastery, and found it to be full of fascinating and well detailed information on Mudras within Japanese practice.
Very very thorough and academic.
excellent illustrations, considering.
