Synopsis:
The extraordinary life story of the renowned Nyingma lama Khamtrul Rinpoche. There are many facets to Rinpoche's memoirs, including references to his esoteric visions, experiences, and insights - like how he found the path through the hidden land of Pemako and his dream of Shambhala. Visions play a prominent role in his story - Buddhist belief in visions is not a matter of blind faith, but is rather an extension of the way we see the world and the nature of our perceptions and reality. The book is also a poignant historical document of Tibet's modern trauma, a firsthand account of resistence and resettlement and an edifying tale of instruction through personal example. At a young age Rinpoche was trained and groomed to carry on the spiritual traditions of his country, but when his homeland fell to the Chinese Communists, he laid aside his religious career to serve his people, first as a resistance leader and later by working for the Tibetan government in exile.
"I am delighted that Khamtrul Rinpoche Jamyang Dondrub is publishing his memoirs, written at the behest of his devoted students…it is at once a conventional autobiography and an unconventional account of spiritual accomplishment. Since childhood Tulku Jamyang Dondrub has had visions of deities and lamas and received from them their sanction. It is certain too, that he is an incarnate lama with a special karmic connection to me. As such, he has done a great deal for the wellbeing of the Buddhist teachings and the people of Tibet." The Dalai Lama. |
