About the Book
This inspiring biography chronicles the extraordinary life of Tenzin Palmo, an Englishwoman from London’s East End who transformed herself into a world-renowned spiritual leader. Driven by a deep calling, she embarked on a journey to India, entering a monastery as the only woman among hundreds of monks. Facing centuries of prejudice that denied women the path to enlightenment, she chose a life of extreme solitude, spending 12 years in a remote cave 13,000 feet in the Himalayas. Enduring freezing temperatures, wildlife, floods, snow, and rockfalls, she grew her own food and meditated in a traditional three-foot-square wooden box without lying down. Emerging from her isolation in 1988, Tenzin Palmo dedicated herself to establishing a convent in northern India, reviving the forgotten Togdenma lineage of female spiritual practitioners. Vicki Mackenzie’s detailed account celebrates resilience, spiritual devotion, and the power of determination against overwhelming odds.
