Tibetan Journey

This book is a fascinating account on the journey to the mysterious and forbidden kingdom. This book is written by an intrepid explorer who travelled in Tibet for fourteen years. This book reveals the penetrating insight and courage of a woman who surmounted physical, intellectual and social barriers to pursue her spiritual quest. Here is an absorbing account of the long and hazardous journey through Tibet. Her accounts of Tibetan religious ceremonies and beliefs are the fullest and best we have. This book is totally about a mysterious and unknown country Tibet which has remained more particularly worthy of study, owing to the curious developments which have taken place there. While retaining the glamour of mystery which belongs to a country ruled by monks, many of whom were worshiped as gods, and which excluded all intruders from without, Tibet is worthy of all the interest of the student of diplomacy, politics, theocracy, sociology and economics.
