An emaciated yogi spending years in isolated retreat cabins in cold northern climes, often without electric power or running water... Counsel to America s most prestigious litigation firm, hurtling across the skies in a leased jet to put out legal brushfires, with billions of dollars at stake... A reincarnate Lama swathed in maroon and gold robes atop a throne of honor amidst thousands of monks in a magnificent temple in the remote Tibetan hinterland of Golog... A Human Rights activist struggling to free indentured slaves in the sweltering jungles of western Nepal... Translator, attendant and heart disciple for a dozen years to a true King of Crazy Wisdom.... One person fits all of these descriptions, and many more. Read about his remarkable life s journey so far, and his wry, sharp, and candid reflections on life, death, rebirth, and that which neither is born nor dies our true nature.

A tender-hearted praise and elegy to the great Tibetan Buddhist masters of our times. --Moke Mokotoff, Zangdokpalri Foundation

An entertaining and original work of literature by a well-known western Lama in the Tibetan Buddhist tradition, hailed as "deeply moving and ... remarkably well written." --Erik Pema Kunsang, Rangjung Yeshe

"The wonderful stories rank right up there with those in Blazing Splendor, the memoirs of Tulku Urgyen Rinpoche." -Lama Surya Das, Dzogchen Foundation
