more of an autobiography than anything, but through the lens of buddhism. a little misleading in a way - i believed it to be some sort of introduction or insight into buddhism, but it was more instances in his life where Buddhism had an impact. Interesting to hear the impact it’s had on others’ lives, but when the book is described as the author “opening the door to the core teachings of Tibetan Buddhism”, i think it heavily lacked that. It was more like unlocking the door to allow you to open it for yourself through your own research.
