DJ has some wear tears and soiling. Signed by Galen Rowell on first page. One of the world's spiritual leaders and a renowned wilderness photographer combine their vision of Tibet in this stunningly beautiful book. Essays by the Fourteenth Dalai Lama appear with Galen Rowell's dramatic images in a moving presentation of the splendors of Tibet. Galen Avery Rowell August 23 1940 - August 11 2002 was a wilderness photographer adventure photojournalist and climber. He became a full-time photographer in 1972. He pioneered a new kind of photography in which he was not merely an observer but considered himself a participant in the scenes that he photographed - he considered the landscape part of the adventure and the adventure part of the landscape. Rowell conceived a technical approach of extending the dynamic range to be captured on film. He developed a set of graduated neutral density filters and had them produced by Singh-Ray a filter manufacturer. They were sold under his name and became a standard for dealing with high contrast scenes. Galen Rowell also mastered the technique of using balanced fill flash which allowed him to lighten the deepest shadows in a subtle way to match the relatively narrow dynamic range of color reversal film. He won the Ansel Adams Award for Conservation Photography in 1984. One of the world's spiritual leaders and a renowned wilderness photographer combine their vision of Tibet in this stunningly beautiful book. Essays by the Fourteenth Dalai Lama appear with Galen Rowell's dramatic images in a moving presentation of the splendors of Tibet's revered but threatened heritage. When Chinese communist troops invaded Tibet in 1950 the author was fifteen years old and the spiritual and temporal ruler of a nation the size of western Europe. Tenzin Gyatso the Fourteenth Dalai Lama of Tibet appealed to the United Nations for help and then fled across the Himalaya in winter to a border town where he anxiously awaited political aid that never came. Like the mythical kingdom of Shangri-La Tibet had sought isolation from the rest of the world. Diplomatic relations and foreign visitors had been shunned and few people in the West knew what cultural and natural treasures lay threatened there. In the years that followed the Dalai Lama struggled to maintain peace in Tibet and to protect his people's ways but in 1959 he was forced to flee to India where he remains today. There he has established a government in exile in Dharamsala that has endeavored to preserve Tibetan culture while preparing for a peaceful return to a free Tibet. As the Chinese cautiously opened select Tibetan doors to visitors in the 1980s a sickening realization stole over the rest of the world: Tibet had been ravaged by the Chinese occupation. All but a dozen of Tibet's six thousand monasteries had been destroyed. Much of the once-bountiful wildlife had disappeared. A sixth of the population had perished. The picture seemed so bleak that many wondered whether there was anything worth saving in this wounded land. The Dalai Lama's heartening answer and Galen Rowell's magnificent photographs leave no doubt that the mystery and enchantment of Tibet though seriously endangered are still alive. To Tibetans the Dalai Lama is an incarnation of the Buddha of compassion. He has spent the last thirty years tirelessly advocating nonviolence and compassion to all living things as the answer to Tibet's plight. "My religion is simple" he says "my religion is kindness." My Tibet movingly elaborates this message: here the Dalai Lama offers his views on how world peace happiness and environmental responsibility are inextricably linked. He explains the meaning of pilgrimage for Tibetan Buddhists and gives an engaging account of his early life in Lhasa the capital of Tibet. In addition he reveals many sides to his nature' compassion profound faith common sense generosity a playful sense of humor in personal reflections matched here to 108 photographs of the land he hasn't seen since 1959. Together the breathtaking photographs which express Rowell's own commitment to the natural world and the Dalai Lama's observations help preserve the enduring meaning of Tibet's culture religion and natural heritage.

2019Ciò che è vivo e impressionante negli scritti di Alexandra David-Néel è il senso della vita nomade e avventurosa che si svolge nelle solitudini erbose del Tibet settentrionale, sugli alti valichi, fra immense catene di monti, che conducono a sud verso il Nepal e l'India. Fra tappe di accampamento e marce estenuanti, in uno scenario di bellezza maestosa e indicibile, spazzato dai grandi venti asiatici, percorso da fiumi precipitosi e dominato dalle più grandiose vette del mondo, la scrittrice ritrova pienamente se stessa e descrive i suoi pellegrinaggi fra mistici e maghi misteriosi. Su questo sfondo incantato, dunque, s'inserisce il presente racconto, che si sviluppa attorno alla magia amorosa da un lato – al di là della forma volgare dei filtri d'amore o di quella demoniaca della magia sessuale vera e propria – e la magia nera dall'altro. Un racconto che permette di conoscere meglio la realtà vivente del Tibet e dei tibetani, che la leggendaria e instancabile viaggiatrice ha così tanto amato e narrato. Autori: Alexandra David-Néel.
2017br. Il "Bardo Thodol" fu composto dal grande maestro Padma Sambhava, nell'VIII o nel IX secolo, per i buddhisti indiani e tibetani. Venne in seguito nascosto per un'era a venire e ritrovato solo nel XIV secolo dal noto «scopritore di tesori» Karma Lingpa. Il libro interpreta le esperienze dello stato intermedio (in tibetano bardo), di solito riferito alla condizione tra la morte e la rinascita. Bardo indica la condizione intermedia (i tibetani distinguono sei stati intermedi: l'intervallo tra la morte e la rinascita, tra il sonno e la veglia, tra la veglia e «l'assorbimento profondo», e i tre stati intermedi durante il processo di morte-rinascita), mentre le parole "thos grol" significano che l'insegnamento offerto da questo libro «libera» non appena lo si «apprenda» o «intenda», offrendo alla persona che affronta lo stato intermedio una comprensione così chiara e profonda da non richiedere una riflessione prolungata. Un'approfondita descrizione del processo di morte ricavata dalla vasta letteratura tibetana sullo yoga supremo, e vaste parti mai tradotte prima dell'opera più ampia ("Il profondo insegnamento della liberazione naturale attraverso la contemplazione delle divinità di buddha miti e feroci") di cui il "Bardo Thodol" costituisce una sezione, fanno di questa versione, curata da uno dei maggiori tibetologi viventi, l'edizione di riferimento per molti anni a venire di un grande classico del pensiero orientale.
