Overview

This book is a series of tributes, memories, essays, poetry, and photographs in memory of Shamar Rinpoche, the 14th Shamarpa (1952–2014), created by students, teachers, and friends of Bodhi Path Buddhist Centers. Students of this prominent Tibetan Buddhist lama remember their teacher with tributes and stories about his life.

"We are very happy indeed to read all these wonderful tributes to the late 14th Shamar Rinpoche! By reading this book we are deepening our understanding of who Shamar Rinpoche actually was. I am truly amazed to learn how well Rinpoche managed to guide and teach so many people in so many different countries in such a short life."
