Glorious Wisdom: The Autobiography of Khenchen Palden Sherab Rinpoche, Translated by Khenpo Tsewang Dongyal Rinpoche, With a Brief Biography by J. M. White

When Khenchen spoke of growing up in Tibet he called it ancient times. This is a vivid and sometimes harrying account of his life in Tibet and his escape to India. Khenchen was born and raised in pre-invasion Tibet and trained in Gochen and Riwoche monasteries. He and his family escaped to northern India during the Chinese invasion. He came to America in the 1980s and has established Dharma centers all over America and around the world. He founded his own press and published works in Tibetan and English with over thirty volumes of his own teachings. He died in 2012 at his monastic center in upstate New York. Khenchen was among the last generation of Tibetans who were fully trained in the monastic system of old Tibet. He grew up in a semi-nomadic family in rural Tibet where there were no roads, no vehicles of any kind, no wheels, no electricity or modern convenience. He was literally throw from this situation into the modern world where he ended up living in Manhattan before establishing dharma centers all over America and the world with his headquarters in upstate New York State.
