The Hevajra Tantra is probably the single most important Indian tantra to express the "yoginī" tantra movement within Buddhist esotericism, with its focus on sexuality, female divinities, and aninomianism. Volume 1 contains (149 pages) a short introduction (46 pages) to the Hevajra Tantra, followed by a full translation of its 23 chapters divided into two parts. Volume 2 contains the original Sanskrit text and Tibetan translation. (David Germano)
