More about the book

The publication showcases two exquisite 18th-century manuscripts that reveal lesser-known practices of elemental divination from The White Beryl, a significant 17th-century treatise by Sangs-rgyas rGya-mtsho. It features intricate depictions of the Indian zodiac, cakra diagrams for martial conquest, and Chinese elemental divination charts. Alongside these visuals, readers will find a detailed summary of The White Beryl, extensive commentary, and the first English translation of the related text, Moonbeams, marking a significant contribution to Tibetan studies and bookmaking.
