Peaks and Lamas by Marco Pallis PDF Summary

Book Description: Peaks and Lamas is the account of two geographically related things: the climbing of Himalayan peaks and the Himalayan-Tibetan tradition of Buddhism. It was on a climbing expedition to the Ganges-Satlej watershed that Marco Pallis first began to study the lamas' teachings and way of life. He returned several times to the upper slopes, these later journeys undertaken in search of further spiritual guidance. This book, with its elements of high adventure, its study of Buddhism, and its informed survey of Tibetan art and living, is invaluable for its undiluted, non-western view of the roof of the world. Peaks and Lamas also includes a series of photographs taken by Pallis and his friends.
