8vo, cloh in dj, ex library but no marks, very good. Shortly before midnight on March 17, 1959, the Dalai Lama, without his glasses and dressed as an ordinary Tibetan solider, slipped out of his summer residence with only four aides at his side. At that moment, he became the symbolic head of the Tibetan government in exile, and Gyalo Thondup, the only one of the Dalai Lama's brothers not to don the robes of a Buddhist monk, became the fulcrum for the independence movement. The Noodle Maker of Kalimpong tells the extraordinary story of the Dalai Lama's family, the exile of the spiritual leader of Tibetan Buddhism from Tibet, and the enduring political crisis that has seen remote and bleakly beautiful Tibet all but disappear as an independent nation-state. For the last sixty years, Gyalo Thondup has been at the at the heart of the epic struggle to protect and advance Tibet in the face of unreliable allies, overwhelming odds, and devious rivals, playing an utterly determined and unique role in a Cold War high-altitude superpower rivalry. Here, for the first time, he reveals how he found himself whisked between Chiang Kai-shek, Zhou Enlai, Jawaharlal Nehru, and the CIA, as he tried to secure, on behalf of his brother, the future of Tibet. About the Author: Gyalo Thondup, the older brother of the Dalai Lama, lives on a hilltop compound in Kalimpong, India, that also houses the noodle factory he set up with his late wife, Diki Dolkar (Zhu Dan).

1968réf. 4545Bangkok: The Social Science Association Press of Thailand 1968. First edition in English of the Dalai Lama’s first book on Buddhist philosophy. Octavo original cloth. Signed by the Dalai Lama on the title page in Tibetan "with prayers." A near fine copy in an excellent dust jacket that is lightly rubbed. Housed in a custom half morocco clamshell box. Rare especially signed. The Opening the Eye of the Western Eye is a succinct thorough overview of the doctrines of Buddhism as they have been practiced for a thousand years in Tibet. The Dalai Lama here discusses the need for religious practice and the importance of kindness and compassion. Originally written for Tibetan lay people this was the Dalai Lama's first book on Buddhist philosophy to appear in English. Written for both Tibetan and Western readers Opening the Eye of New Awareness is the Dalai Lama's first religious work. It is not an edited transcript of public lectures but is His Holliness' own summation of Buddhist doctrine and practice. Completed in 1963 just four years after his escape from Tibet and four years after completing his religious education it is a work of consummate scholarship by a twenty-seven year-old geshe wise beyond his years.
