Title: An advertisement for Ugyen Trinley
Review: A book about the Karmapa - the stories about the 16. Karmapa are quite nice.But all she writes about the Karmapa-Controversy" as now there are two men inthronized as 17. Karmapa - Ugyen Trinley and Thaye Dorje. is completly biased.She takes sidde for the first and polemizes strongly against the second, without presenting hard facts, she accuses strongly the followers of Thaye Dorje.She is introduced as journalist, who worked for the (sometimes not more truthful) CNN,but apart of that she is the personal secretary of Tai Situ, who installed Ugyen Trinley as Karmapa against the will of Shamar Rinpoche, the second highest Lama in the Kagyu School of tibetan Buddhism after the Karmapa himself. So its clear, that her book is one sided.Google (or "ecosia") "Terhune Karmapa Politics of Reincarnation wordpress"for a more detailled critic of the bookall the bestGerd
