Cover von Sangharakshita: In the Sign of the Golden Wheel (ePUB)

This engaging volume of memoirs recounts the unique experiences of an English Buddhist monk working in the mid-1950s to revive Buddhism in the land of its birth. Sangharakshita’s lyrical descriptions evoke the kaleidoscope of the Indian landscape in delightful detail. With candour he relates his grittier encounters with royalty and religion, poverty and politics, corruption and ignorance.
