Description: Originally published in Tibet. It was then translated into French from Tibetan and then from French into English. In recent years, Tibetan Buddhism, with its priceless spiritual heritage, has commanded increasing respect and commitment in the West. Now the history of the Sakyapa School, hitherto the tradition of Tibetan Buddhism least well-known, is present in Chogay Trichen’s history. In his powerful and evocative account, we read of the tradition’s forefathers in India, magnificent yogins such as Virupa and Krishnacharya; the five great masters of the early years in Tibet and the innumerable meditation masters and scholars who have adorned the tradition up to the present day. Chogay Trichen Rinpoche is the Head of the Tshar branch of the Sakyapa tradition and is currently the Abbot of the new Sakyapa monastery at Lumbini in Nepal. He is a noted poet and scholar and is famed as one of the greatest tantric masters alive today.
