Dieter Glogowski spent eight years intensively photographing the people of Ladakh and Lingshed—remote mountain regions steeped in Tibetan Buddhist culture—to compile material for this wonderful volume. These stunning portraits in black and white capture the region’s essential nature and spiritual power. Along with texts by Western philosophers, more than 80 Buddhist quotations enhance the expressive power of this unusual book. Produced in collaboration with photo designer Albrecht Haag.
