It is probably fair to say that Tibet as a nation was perhaps the only "nation" that practiced a total belief in magick as we now define it. Magick is really a part of every day life. Tibetan Buddhism, the practice of vajrayana takes the position that through strong action -- including magickal transofrmation and practice -- we can become enlightened in one life time. While there are many tantric practitioners in many other countries -- particularly India where the practice originated -- Tibet stands alone as a "magickal" nation, including reliance and full dependence on a national Oracle.

"According to tantra," writes Lama Yeshe in his famous Introduction to Tantra, "Perfection is not something that is waiting for us somewhere in the future... according to tantra, heaven is now! We should be gods and goddesses right now. But at present we are burdened with limiting concepts: "Men are like this; women are like this; I am a certain way and there is nothing I can do about it." This is why we have conflict within ourselves and with one another. All this conflict will dissolve as we train in the tantric (magick) point of viw and recognize that each man is a complete man and each women is a complete woman. Furthermore, every man and every woman has BOTH male and female energy. Everything that we need in order to be complete (to be gods) is within us right now at this very moment. It is simply a matter of being able to recognize it. This is the tantric approach."

Tantric work is very close in concept to Alchemical work, where transformation is sought. Perhaps with the difference being that many tantric masters have achieved this transformation, which is why so many of us turn to the East for wisdom.

Lama Yeshe goes on, "As modern science has demonstrated, the physical universe with its infinite variety of phenomenoa is in an unceasing state of transformation and evolution from one form of energy to another. Our own mind and body are also energy... through the proper practice of tantra (magick) all of our energies, including the subtle but very powerful energies we are not ordinary aware of are harnessed to accomplish the greatest of all transformations...

How? Where will we find the necessary resources to bring about such a profound change and power? We do not have far to look... it is the energy of our own desires."

If that's not a definition of high magick, I don't know what is. More important, Lama Yeshe is world reknowned and respected in mainstream religious circles, in Tantric and Vajrayana communities, and the wider community of high magick practitioners.
