A mother's story
This is the story of a remarkable woman as she recounts in her own words what it was like to realize her son was being received as a living áBuddha, to watch him grow physically and spiritually and finally to see him become one of the most recognized people in the world.
Beautifully illustrated with family photographs, this glimpse into the origins of the Dalai Lama personalizes the history of the Tibetan people, the magic of their culture, the role of their women, and their ancient ideals of compassion, faith and equanimity.
