Description
From a Mountain in Tibet: A Monk's Journey is the remarkable story of Lama Yeshe's life, marked by turmoil and transformation. Born into a quiet Tibetan village, he grew up surrounded by nature, but his world was forever changed when the Chinese army arrived in 1959.
After escaping to India as a refugee with just 13 of his people, Lama Yeshe spent years in America, struggling with addiction and personal demons. However, after a devastating loss, he vowed to change his ways and eventually found solace at the Samye Ling Monastery, where he became its abbot.
Now in his seventies, Lama Yeshe reflects on his life's journey, sharing insights into self-compassion, discipline, loss, and failure. This is a powerful story of resilience and spiritual growth, offering valuable lessons for anyone seeking to navigate life's challenges with greater ease and understanding.
