A Medicine for Our Faith |

This biography of the great teacher and spiritual guide Khenpo Karthar
Rinpoche was written by his nephew and attendant Lama Karma Drodul. It
is presented in an extremely readable and easy to understand style,
thanks in part to both the straightforward writing of Karma Drodul and
also the superb skills of Yeshe Gyamtso, who translated this book from
Tibetan into English.
This book covers the entirety and auspiciousness of Rinpoche's life
thus far, from the details of his birthplace and family, to his
entering the monastic life and serving both Thrangu Monastery and His
Holiness the Gyalwang Karmapa, to his tireless work in America,
founding Karma Triyana Dharmachakra and traveling throughout this
country establishing centers and placing Western students on the path
of Dharma.
This is a book for the student of any level of practice. KTD
Publications has painstakingly included many sidenotes to this
biography, explaining even the simplest of Dharma terms, so that even a
beginner can read and enjoy this book without confusion or
misunderstanding.
Anyone who has ever seen Khenpo Karthar Rinpoche, or even heard his
name, will benefit from reading this book. It is a true work of love
and devotion for this glorious teacher, who still resides in New York
and teaches to this day. It is also a unique history of His Holiness
the Gyalwang Karmapa's vision of bringing Dharma to the West. I highly
recommend this book to anyone who wants to read about the inspiring
life of a man whose devotion led him to offer so much to the world.
Thank you for your feedback on this review. We appreciate your input!
