Autorenporträt
JAMGON MIPHAM (1846–1912) was one of the great luminaries of Tibetan Buddhism in modern times. Monk, mystic, and brilliant philosopher, he shaped the trajectory of Tibetan Buddhism’s Nyingma school and reinvigorated the Nyingma monastic university tradition. A prolific writer, he is well known for his lengthy composition, The Epic of Gesar of Ling, which arose out of Tibet's oral tradition and is said to be equivalent to the Greek Iliad or the Odyssey.  GYURME AVERTIN has served as the principal translator for Orgyen Tobgyal Rinpoche and several other eminent Tibetan teachers, accompanying them on their frequent visits to the West. Spending extended periods of time in India and Nepal, he has trained extensively in both the sutra and tantra teachings of Tibetan Buddhism, studying with some of the most accomplished masters of our times. His published works include The Gathering of Vidyadharas: Text and Commentaries on the Rigdzin Düpa (Snow Lion, 2017), Sublime Lady of Immortality: Teachings on Chimé Phakmé Nyingtik (Rangjung Yeshe, 2021), as well as numerous talks and prayers.
