About this listen

Colorful stories about and profound teachings of Patrul Rinpoche, one of the most impactful teachers and thinkers in the Tibetan tradition from the 19th century.

The life and teachings of the wandering yogi Patrul Rinpoche - a highly revered Buddhist master and scholar of 19th-century Tibet - come alive in true stories gathered and translated by the French Buddhist monk Matthieu Ricard over more than 30 years, based on the oral accounts of great contemporary teachers as well as written sources. Patrul's life story reveals the nature of a highly realized being as he transmits the Dharma in everything he does, teaching both simple nomads and great lamas in ways that are often unconventional and even humorous, but always with uncompromising authenticity.

Inspiring and easy to listen to

The collected stories about Patel Rinpoche are inspiring, engaging and give a glimpse into the life of a wandering lama in Tibet during the 19th century. The narrator, Roger Clarke has a comforting voice that is easy to listen to.

Went down as smoothly as a cool drink for a parched throat on a summer day.

Only for Die Hard Fans of Patrul Rinpoche

You know how Ani Pema threw Words of my Perfect Teacher against the wall when she was reading it? Ditto here. YEs, his conduct is perfect, we get it. These stories are rather boring, even for fans.
