By offering an intimate glimpse of the environments in which the teachings took place, her brief introductory essays take the reader on a wide-ranging and delightful journeyfrom the Himalayas, to South America and to Europe. The time devoted to photographing these lamas and compiling their teachings has culminated in a unique volume: a statement of beauty that evokes and preserves the illumined personal presence of these great masters for the benefit of current and future generations.All royalties will go toward saving the lives of animals that are slated to be killed.
