About This Book
In Reflections on a Mountain Lake, Tenzin Palmo shares insights drawn from years of solitary meditation retreat in a Himalayan cave and decades within the Tibetan Buddhist tradition.
Clear, direct, and grounded, she explores:
• Developing a daily meditation practice • Working with anger, fear, and jealousy • Core Buddhist principles • Karma and reincarnation • The tantric tradition • The role of female practitioners in Buddhism
This is not a secular self-help book. It is practical Dharma — expressed in accessible language.
A powerful bridge between authentic lineage training and modern Western life.
Ideal For:
• Readers interested in Tibetan Buddhism • Women seeking female monastic role models • Serious meditation practitioners • Those exploring karma and rebirth • Students of Buddhist philosophy
