An extraordinary life-story of a Tibetan monk and his spiritual path of Yungdrung Bön:
Nagru Gelek Jinpa made a life-changing decision at the age of
nineteen to leave behind his life as a shepherd in eastern Tibet and
to become a monk. Five years later, after having met a great Bönpo
master, Yongdzin Tenzin Namdak Rinpoche, Gelek escaped from his
homeland to receive teachings on Bön philosophy and its highest
system of meditation, dzogchen, from this great master in
Kathmandu, Nepal.
He tells, with deep insight and humour, of his early years as an
uneducated boy herding cows, pigs and yaks; of his studies in
various monasteries in Tibet and India and finally in Nepal with his
beloved master Yongdzin Rinpoche. He also makes a pilgrimage to
Tibet in search of the ancient kingdom of Zhang Zhung and explores
age-old holy sites in Nepal. Later on he starts to teach in the West,
write books on his adventurous journeys and study filmmaking in Mexico.
This thought-provoking and remarkable story of a Tibetan monk and
scholar, teacher, author and documentary filmmaker, gives witness to
his extraordinary life and spiritual path linked to Tibet's original cultural and spiritual tradition.
