Berkeley, CA: Shambhala, 1985. Translated & Annotated by Alex Wayman 4to size horizontal orange clothbound hardcover with dust jacket; 123 pages From dust jacket: "This is the first English translation of one of the most revered and often-used tantric texts in Tibetan Buddhism. While consisting of only 160 verses and some mantra sentences, the work condenses an enormous tantric lore, so much that it garnered exalted mention in the Vimalaprabha - the great commentary on the Kalackra - and is cited a number times in the celebrated tantrist Naropa's Hevajratantra commentary... The English translation (is set) alongside the complete original Sanskrit, with its Tibetan translation." The book has a slightly cocked spine which will likely correct under the weight of a heavy book. There is a slight curl to the bottom corner of the last five or so pages. Jacket has light wear and a deep scratch on front. . Cloth. Good/Good. 4to - over 9¾" - 12" tall.

This is a rare, one-of-a-kind, signed and Inscribed limited edition of paintings, artwork and photography by the renowned Hungarian painters Sass Brunner-Farkas and Elizabeth Brunner. Inspired by a mystic dream of Rabinadrath Tagore, the mother and daughter traveled to India, staying for 5 years. They met and painted Tagore, Mahatma Ghandi, along with portraits of Indian deities, landscapes, and common women and men.
Mother and daughter signed and inscribed the FFEP to friends "Mr. and Mrs. Tomanocky" and there is a separate inscription in Hungarian by, I believe, Sass Brunner. Mother and daughter also signed under their photographs opposite the title page and both signed under portrait photographs of themselves at the beginning of the two sections of the book which separate their individual paintings and drawings with a short inscription by Sass, and on a slip of paper with young Elizabeth's portrait and a Christmas and New Year's greeting.
