Chatral Rinpoche, the quintessential "hidden yogi," has been a legend in the Himalayas for the past seventy years. Although he has never traveled to the West, his amazing story and teachings have been making a dent in Western Buddhist consciousness since Father Thomas Merton met him in 1968 and made that famous comment: "Chatral Rinpoche is the greatest man I have ever known."

This is the first book in Spanish of this living legend of compassion. It includes his biography and autobiography, six of his essays, five sentences composed by him, an exclusive interview and a list of photographs taken throughout his life.

"Kyabje Chatral Rinpoche... It is famous throughout the Tibetan community... A legendary expert who – like the great sages and hermits of old – has spent much of his life in retirement, practicing meditation and offering teachings very occasionally to a few disciples... It is therefore a real wonder that we can now have this precious collection of superbly translated teachings and advice, thus allowing many more people to benefit from his infinite wisdom and compassion." -Sogyal Rinpoche
