Sacred Love

This is a luminous collection of Tantric Buddhist poetry by Sophia, a devoted mystic and long-time practitioner of Vajrayana and Dzogchen. Rooted in direct experience and dedicated to the Dharma, Sacred Love explores the exalted dimensions of spiritual and sacred union-both with a lover and in solitary practice.

At the heart of this collection is the living realization of Bodhicitta as the essence and ground of all phenomena. Through visionary prose and poetic insight, Sophia expresses the union of emptiness and bliss, the spontaneous presence of non-dual awareness, and the radical liberation found in the one taste of all experience.

This work honors the Tantric path as a sacred embodiment of love-not merely as metaphor, but as a living doorway into the Dharmakaya, the formless body of truth. The poetry reveals a rare fusion of Western metaphysical insight and authentic Buddhist realization, offering readers an intimate glimpse into what becomes possible when spiritual union blossoms into awakened love.

Endorsed and encouraged by Dungsay Namgay Dawa Rinpoche, lineage holder of the Dudjom Tersar, Sacred Love also features visual contributions from contemporary Buddhist artists and museum-quality images of traditional Tantric art.

All proceeds from this book are being donated to the Tibetan Nuns Project, supporting the care of elderly Buddhist nuns.

Without Bodhicitta, there is no Enlightenment. Without Love, Only Delusion remains.
