• fine memoir
  This is an engaging and compelling look back at the author's life and experience with Chogyam Trungpa Rinpoche. It's well-told, candid, and fascinating, and recommended to anyone with an interest in the subject.

  Most of us wonder what it would be like to live in an enlightened society. Perhaps we even yearn for that.
