The remarkable true story of a young man's initiation in the Himalayas into a life-affirming path that is several centuries old
David Manners was trekking in Nepal when he stumbled upon the mountain home of a jhankri, or Nepalese shaman. The jhankri accepted David as his pupil, and so began the next stage of David's extraordinary journey, in which he embarked upon an adventure that was more challenging and, ultimately, life-affirming than anything he could have imagined. Here David shares the wisdom and insights he learned from those transformational days in the Himalayas. These include practical guidance on how to live a full and fearless life, how to find happiness, and how to live in ways that nurture both ourselves and others. As David reveals, the life lessons he learned among the mountains of the Himalayas could benefit us all today.
