Описание: The phrase "Kadam masters" evokes for many Tibetans a sense of a spiritual golden age--the image of a community of wise yet simple monks devoted to a life of mental cultivation. These eleventh- and twelfth-century masters were particularly famed for their pithy spiritual sayings that captured essential teachings in digestible bites. In these sayings one unmistakably detects a clear understanding of what comprises a truly happy life, one that is grounded in a deep concern for the welfare of others.
Like the "Sayings of the Desert Fathers," Lao Tzu, or Rumi, the teachings contained in "Wisdom of the Kadam Masters" can be approached as a part of the wisdom heritage of mankind, representative of the long history of the long human quest to understand our existence and its meaning. This volume offers some of the most beloved teachings of the Tibetan tradition.

Set in a mythical India at the start of the first millennium, The Long Road to Nalanda is the story of a young outcaste, Abhi, who is offered as blood sacrifice to the giant snake God, Jwala.

Abhi, a feisty young adolescent, must discover how she can overcome the dark forces raging against her. Intent on revenge, she travels through a collapsed empire where rival groups are competing for dominance. Abhi is befriended by a bunch of misfits, but, unable to make sense of her survival, she resorts to a desperate act of vengeance.

Will Abhi's fateful action trigger the fall of a kingdom, as foretold in the ancient prophecy? And who will Abhi become if she emerges from the ashes?
