Praise and Reviews

A delightful and ingenuous autobiography of a modern day Chod master, who practices the very rare Zhije as well as Chod. Though living the traditional lifestyle of a wandering yogin in modern-day Tibet, it may turn out that these ancient, exotic practices are perfectly relevant right now.
-Sarah Harding, author of Machik's Complete Explanation.

Lama Wangdu's vivid descripion of pilgrimage to 108 cremation grounds, and his teacher's interpretation of his experiences, take us into a world where each experience is seen symbolically, as it arises. His selfless compassion and profound faith epitomizes the lineage of Machig Labdron and Dampa Sangye.
-Tsultrim Allione, author of Feeding Your Demons and Women of Wisdom.

A mesmerizing portrait of a well-known master who grew up a devout student and ascetic yogi in a society of onderment and intrigue in Southern Tibet. The essence of the book is the spell-binding descriptions of his ever-giving love and service to all, rich or poor, as a Buddhist teacher and healer.
-Tulku Thondup Rinpoche, author of The Healing Power of Mind and Peaceful Death, Joyful Rebirth.

The Chod, Dzogchen yogas and pilgrimage that Lama Wangdu alludes to are at the root of existential Buddhism. They deserve immediate attention from everyone concerned with their ultimate spiritual health.
-Keith Dowman, author of Sky Dancer and Flight of the Garuda.
