Throughout history awakened ones have celebrated the rapture of mystical states with inspired verse sung extemporaneously.

This compendium of spontaneous verse sung by tantric Buddhist masters from the 10th century to the present includes translations as well as short descriptions of each poet's life and a historical overview of the lineage.
