In-8 p. (mm. 222x138), tela edit. verde con titolo e decoraz. dorate al piatto e al dorso (manca la sovraccoperta), con alcune tavole in b.n. f.t., come da Indice, ampiamente descritte. L’opera, con una approfondita introduzione, è così suddivisa: “The Chikhai Bardo and the Chonyid Bardo - The ‘Bardo’ of the moments of death - The ‘Bardo’ of the experiencing of reality - The Sidpa Bardo - The after-death world - the process of rebirth”. The Appendix e l’Addenda (Yoga - Tantricism - Mantras, or words of power - The Guru and Shishya (or Chela) and initiations - Northern and Southern Buddism and Christianity - The Medieval Christian judgement”. "Prima edizione inglese". Si tratta della prima traduzione inglese del testo Tibetano Buddista “Bardo Thodol”, realizzata dallo scrittore americano Walter Yeeling Evans-Wentz (1878-1965), antropologo e pioniere nello studio del buddismo tibetano e nella sua trasmissione al mondo occidentale. Il titolo fu inventato da Wentz per la similarità con l’antico “Libro dei morti” egiziano, e come il testo egizio anche questo tibetano diventò un importante classico della spiritualità universale. Solo antica firma di apparten. ms. al frontespizio, altrimenti esemplare molto ben conservato.
Milano, Treves, 1910, due volumi in-8vo legature originali in tutta tela marrone e copertine illustrate a colori, pp. XII-510-(6) + pp. 474-(6) con due tavole alle antiporte, 381 incisioni, due panorami, otto tavole a colori e tre carte a colori ripiegate fuori testo. I riferimenti alle tavole e alle carte citati nei due frontespizi sono fuorvianti: nel primo volume e' citato: "Con 403 incisioni da fotografie e da acquerelli e disegni dell'autore, e con 10 carte" mentre nel secondo volume: "Con 397 incisioni in nero, due panorami, otto tavole a colori, e 10 carte). Nella realtà sono presenti complessivamente 381 illustrazioni in nero in tavole fuori testo, la numerazione è continua per entrambi i volumi, da 1 a 194 nel primo e da 195 a 378 nel secondo (di cui una è un grande panorama ripiegato) e tre tavole non numerate relative alle due antiporte ed al ritratto di Hedin, nove tavole a colori (tre nel primo volume e sei nel secondo, di cui una è un grande panorama ripiegato), tre grandi carte a colori ripiegate fuori testo (una nel primo e due nel secondo volume). Non sono in alcun modo presenti le dieci tavole citate nel primo volume ed altre dieci citate nel secondo volume ed il numero complessivo delle illustrazioni in nero è quindi di 381 (378 + 3) e non 403 + 397.

In Padova, MDCCLXVI (1766), nella Stamperia del Seminario. (mm. 230). Due volumi rilegati in uno. Cartonato rustico dell’epoca, titolo manoscritto al dorso. 1 c. b, pp. (14), 207; 232. Non comune prima ed unica edizione. Splendido esemplare in barbe. L’opera contiene il primo accenno al karma della religione buddista. Bibl: Antologia Vieusseux, n. 51, 2011, E. G. Bargiacchi, la nascita degli studi tibetani, pp. 5 - 32: Ippolito Desideri aveva affrontato non solo la lingua tibetana, ma anche le concezioni filosofiche centrali del buddhismo, redigendo «quella Relazione del Tibet che – come disse Giuseppe Tucci – per la sua profondità e diligenza resiste all’urto dei secoli e al perfezionarsi della indagine»; Le acquisizioni desideriane furono partecipate direttamente ad alcuni studiosi del tempo e di ciò resta qualche traccia; possiamo ricordare una delle prime segnalazioni della legge buddhista del karma che, nelle parole del teologo domenicano Tommaso Vincenzo Moniglia, portava a ritenere «quell’infedeli che le virtù e i vizj, per un’intrinseca forza materiale tirassero le anime in quei luoghi diversi [«di gastigo» e «di gaudio»] ad esse proporzionati». Questa legge, che indica «una specie […] di meccanica necessità» (p. 89), viene riferita dal Moniglia come sentita da Desideri, «Pistojese Missionario del Tibet» (p. 90).
