Music in the Sky

More about the book

The focus of the book is on the Karmapa as a religious figure and on the Buddhism of Tibet. Music in the Sky offers a series of the Karmapa's profound teachings, an extensive selection of his poetry, and a detailed account of his life and flight from his homeland. The amazing teaching and writing skills evident in this work - particularly in light of the fact that the Karmapa is still only 17 years old - will captivate readers. Music in the Sky presents a definitive portrait of the Seventeenth Karmapa, strengthened and illuminated by an authoritative depiction of his place in one of the world's most revered lines of spiritual teachers.
