More about the book

Born in 1933 in a Tibetan village, Palden Gyatso became a monk and studied at the prestigious Drepung Monastery. His life took a drastic turn with the Chinese invasion of Tibet in 1950, leading to severe political and cultural repression. In 1959, he was imprisoned and tortured for thirty-three years due to his beliefs. After escaping to India in 1992, he has dedicated himself to exposing the harsh realities of Chinese oppression and honoring the resilience of Tibetan culture amidst ongoing challenges.
