Summary

El Lama Yeshe no vio un coche hasta los quince años. En el tranquilo pueblo tibetano donde creció, los niños corrían entre yaks. El ritmo de la vida era lento, regido por el cambio de las estaciones. La llegada del ejército chino en 1959 lo alteró todo. Él y su hermano se vieron obligados a huir caminando a través del Tíbet y los Himalayas durante diez meses, hasta encontrar refugio en la India. De los trescientos miembros que partieron, solo trece sobrevivieron. Acabaría trasladándose a EE.UU., donde experimentó los excesos de la generación hippie, antes de reformarse y embarcarse en el viaje espiritual que lo convertiría en uno de los más notables monjes tibetanos en Occidente. Ahora, desde la posición de abad del monasterio escocés de Samye Ling, el primer centro budista tibetano de Europa, el lama Yeshe reflexiona sobre su extraordinaria vida y sobre el manantial de compasión y resiliencia que le posibilitó vencer la tragedia y el fracaso. Desde las montañas del Tíbet es una autobiografía cargada de fuerza y profundamente inspiradora que puede enseñarnos a superar la adversidad y hallar la paz.

Lama Yeshe did not see a car until he was fifteen years old. In the quiet Tibetan village where he grew up, children ran among yaks. The pace of life was slow, governed by the changing of the seasons. Then, the arrival of the Chinese army in 1959 changed everything. He and his brother were forced to flee by trekking through Tibet and the Himalayas for ten months, until they found refuge in India. He would eventually move to the US before reforming and embarking on the spiritual journey that would make him one of the most notable Tibetan monks in the West. In this book, he reflects on his extraordinary life and on the wellspring of compassion and resilience that enabled him to overcome tragedy and failure. From the Mountains of Tibet is a powerful and deeply inspiring autobiography that can teach us to overcome adversity and find peace.
