Jewel in the Lotus : a journey in Tibet

THIS BOOK IS FOR ANYONE WANTING TO TRAVEL TO TIBET, whether it be in reality or in your imagination. Weaving together the symbolism of Tibetan Buddhism with my personal experience of the landscape and atmosphere, encounters and efforts of the journey, the text provides an insight into real life conditions in Tibet.

It is also a poetic postcard to you who are looking for inspiration beyond factual description.

And it’s a story about the realization of dreams, with space between text and pictures for your own reflection. Give yourself time to read slowly and let the significance of the words sink in. Let what you find between the lines sink in. As in life itself.

Touch the pages and feel the rugged, dry mountain landscape with your fingertips.

Start by travelling in mind and soul, with your heart and senses, and see where it will bring you in real life

To dream is to journey

beyond the borders of reality.

And to realise a dream

is to dare change.

A life condition.
