Description About the author Contents
 
In 1991 Thrangu Rinpoche accompanied a group of western Buddhist students to each of the four major pilgrimage sites from the life of the Buddha. This book contains the teachings Rinpoche gave to the group at each pilgrimage site, enabling readers to share this unique experience.

This book also includes Rinpoche's summary of the History of Buddhism in India based on Taranatha's famous history describing the 12 deeds of the Buddha's life, the subsequent Buddhist councils and universities which oversaw the development of the sutras, shastras, and tantras, and the emergence of the Mahayana and Vajrayana traditions of Buddhism.

Rinpoche's teachings are accessible to new students while at the same time offering new insights to advanced students. Finally, the teachings are supplemented by a 60 page description of Buddhist pilgrimage sites in India which includes over 20 photographs and several maps.
