Review
“It gives me immense pleasure to know that this authentic account of the life and activities of Khyentse Rinpoche, whom I am fortunate to revere among my own precious teachers, has been prepared to remind those who knew him and inform those who did not.”—His Holiness the Dalai Lama.

“Who could ever forget Dilgo Khyentse Rinpoche if they had ever seen him? Both in his spiritual realization and in his physical appearance and build, he was larger than life. In every sense, there was something universal, even superhuman, about him.”—Sogyal Rinpoche, author of The Tibetan Book of Living and Dying.

“Dilgo Khyentse Rinpoche was the perfect example of how a teacher can be a source of inspiration. By reading the life story of such a great teacher, we can gain some understanding of what we could achieve if we were to follow such a teacher, receive his instructions, and practice the way he did. What inspired me most in Dilgo Khyentse Rinpoche is the beauty of his inner freedom; no matter what happened around him.”—Shechen Rabjam Rinpoche, author of The Great Medicine That Conquers Clinging to the Notion of Reality.

“He was a great leader, and just like a majestic American Indian chief or a distinguished samurai general, Dilgo Khyentse Rinpoche was never affected by chaotic or difficult circumstances, however tumultuous. He always remained quite still, like a mountain, effortlessly exuding an all-pervasive confidence that evoked confidence in those around him, and an absolute, unshakeable equanimity.”—Dzongsar Jamyang Khyentse Rinpoche, author of What Makes You Not a Buddhist.
