About the book

Orgyan Chokyi spent her entire life in Dolpo, expressly forbidden to write her life story by her master. Despite being illiterate she did so anyway, after receiving divine inspiration to compose one of the most forthright and engaging spiritual autobiographies of the Tibetan literary tradition.
