Sera: The Way of the Tibetan Monk Sheila Rock
Sera: The Way of the Tibetan Monk
Sheila Rock
The Sera Jey Monastery, reestablished near Mysore, India, houses 5,000 Buddhist monks living in exile--including survivors of the destruction of the Tibetan monastery in 1959. Sheila Rock's moving portraits are a celebration of the everyday simplicity and subtle beauty of the ascetic life. More than a hundred duotone photographs document the compassionate expressions, emotional openness, and aura of serenity inspired by lives of renunciation and seclusion. A percentage of the royalties from this book go to the Sera Jhe Health Care Committee in aid of various humanitarian projects.
