Some Orientalists tend to exaggerate the antigiiedad of Tantra. Thus, Braja Lai Mukerji, Tantra Shastra and Veda (in the volume of Sir John Woo-Draff, Shakti and Shakta, ed. III. P. 95-105) and C, Chakravarti, Antiquity of Tan-tricism (Iridian Historical Quarterly VI, 1930, p. 114-126) attempt to demonstrate perfect solidarity between Tantrism and Veda. B. Bhattacarya believes that tantric practices and doctrines have been introduced by the Buddha himself, An Introduction to Buddhist Esoterism (London, 1932), p. 48; and introduction to the edition of Sadhana-mala, P. XVI-XVII. All these views are exaggerated: they are found in Tantra ancient elements of which some belong to the early history of religion in India, but its introduction in Buddhism and Hinduism began quite late, at least before the first centuries of the era Christian. B. Bhattacarya, the editor of Guhyasamaia tantra (Gaekwad'sOriental Series, vol 53, Baroda, 1931), proposes to consider this text (it attaches to Asanga) as belonging to the third century (p. XXXVII). According to Winternitz (Notes on the Guhyasamaia tantra) no precise indication this agreement allows us to attribute the great philosopher Asanga. However, many Buddhist Tantra do: S. B. Dasgupta, An Introduction to Tantric Buddhism (University of Calcutta, 1950), p. 46, note 4. The importance of this Guhyasamaia attested by his numerous co-commentator: Marcelle Lalou, Repertoire du Tanjur, P. 13; for the comments of Tson-kha-pa, E.
