| Abstract | Lama Anagarika Govinda was one of the last foreigners to journey through Tibet before the Chinese invasion of 1950. A devoted Buddhist and a spokesman for Tibetan culture, Govinda's luminous and candid account is a spectacular, poetic story of—and a sensitive interpretation of—Tibetan traditions. The Way of the White Clouds is one the twentieth century's classic spiritual autobiographies and an invaluable document about a place and a way of thinking that is virtually defined by its mysteries.
Robert Thurman's perceptive introduction places Govinda's writings in historical context and opens a new door to understanding Tibet, Buddhism, and a man who, Thurman remarks, is "undoubtedly one of the West’s greatest minds of the twentieth century, right up there with Einstein, Heisenberg, Wittgenstein, Solzhenitsyn, Gandhi, and the Dalai Lama."
