Lama Yeshe spent his first twenty-four years in Tibet, fleeing from the Chinese invasion in 1959. He spent the remaining twenty-five years of his life first as a refugee in India and Nepal, and then as a tireless traveller throughout much of the world. Together wtih his heart-son and spiritual heir, Lama Thubten Zopa Rinpoche, Lama Yeshe was in the forefront of masters bringing Buddhist teachings to the West.
