In the majestic Tristen Norbutse Monastery in Kathmandu, Nepal, families leave their children to start teaching the Bön, the oldest Buddhist tradition. A simple man, a sage of Tibetan origin, is revered and recognized throughout the world as one of the great living masters of this ancient spiritual tradition. His name: Yongdzin Lopon Tenzin Namdak Rinpoche. Through the ensemble account of several Bön practitioners from diverse countries and cultures, Lopon seeks to delve into the reasons for the personal search for spirituality and the way in which this practice is integrated into Western culture.
