Memoirs of Keutsang Lama Recognized as a reincarnation of Keutsang Rinpoche, a high Tibetan lama at the young age of two in 1946, when the Chinese occupation of Tibet was gaining its momentum. China ultimately took over Tibet in 1959. Later, he was sentenced to twenty years of imprisonment at the age of sixteen as a class enemy. Here in this book, Keutsang Rinpoche narrates the life in Tibet after Chinese occupation and the condition of prison life. The book is also interesting from the point that how a reverred incarnation of a high lama ultimately reacts when put under harsh reality of life. That too under communist regime. Does the faith in Buddhism for that matter, in any religion, deliver the practitioner from his oppressors. Price : 195.00 INR
New ! My Life My Culture 'As our bus wormed its way up the hill i had the first tiny glimpse of Dharamsala in the early morning. I saw the vista of the mighty Dhauladar mountain range, upon whose lap the centre of the Tibetan diaspora is situated. The crisp November air brushed my cheeks, as I surveyed the green hills covered with trees. The blue sky and peaceful environment reminded me of Tibet before the Chinese occupation, when life was less complicated and unburdened by thought control and repressive policies. Soon after our arrival we were accommodated in the Reception Centre and were allotted rooms. Reclining on the bed I raised my arms and stretched my tired legs without fear of a hammer striking down.'
