My new book is co-authored with Robert Thurman and is based on the life of the Sixth Dalai Lama, Tsangyang Gyatso (1683-1706). This historical novel is a sangway namtar, a secret liberation story that reveals the meditative state of a siddha, an accomplished master or saint. His poems provide the narrative thread for revealing the complex relationships entangling Tibet, Mongolia, China, and India.

The Sixth Dalai Lama’s words are filled with humor and longing, joy and dismay, with expressions of the profound and evoke the essence of being human.
