Review # 1 was written on 2013-10-11 00:00:00 Little Ave This book is an academic look at the role of women in Tibetan Buddhism. Campbell makes some interesting and important points, but the book is unnecessarily repetitive and quite dry. I wish I had a better understanding of the role of the dakini, and I certainly know more than before I read the book. For sure, women are marginalized in any patriarchal society. It has been 18 years since this book was published. As Buddhism has flourished in the west, and more women are teachers, hopefully less women allow themselves to be subjugated and marginalized.

Review # 2 was written on 2013-12-16 00:00:00 David Sargeant Cambell's work is a must read for any female at all engaged in Tibetan Buddhism, or, really, Buddhism at large, or feminism in general. Although this book is likely placed on a kind of Academic shelf, I found it to be likely readable by any remotely literate person. Cambell did a great job of steering clear of academic jargon, her language use was uniquely descriptive, yet clear, and through this maintained a distinguished sense of urgency -- which, in the best way possible, is still deeply needed in this area of study. I deeply appreciated this work and forever will consider it a "shifting" book for me. Having long been steeped in the philosophical study of Buddhism, Yoga, Feminism, and Politics, I sensed there was a link missing I hadn't yet placed my eye on. It will make you reconsider all your conceptions about your own practice, how this relates to politics (I'm thinking dichotomous thinking, i.e., church/state, policy, etc.), and, for me, how I conceived of Sunyata, or emptiness. This book is "game changer" and despite the "truth" surrounding Cambells' claims in the book, this work was needed for it's concept-shifting vision.
