Divine Arts Media To Release in Sixth Book In New Series THE SACRED SITES OF THE DALAI LAMAS

[Los Angeles, CA/USA] Divine Arts Media announces the October 2011 release of THE SACRED SITES OF THE DALAI LAMAS by Glenn H. Mullin.

This book remarkably mixes 100 stunning color photographs of Tibet’s most sacred power spots of the Dalai Lamas with text on the historical relevance of these sites in the unfolding of Tibetan Buddhism. Appearing throughout the book are brief biographies, inspirational quotations and passages from the writings of the early Dalai Lamas.

The book takes both an experiential form (through the photographs) and an intellectual exploration of these power spots. It explores the caves where the early Buddhist masters meditated, enters the monasteries where the Dalai Lamas and others taught, and looks down from an altitude of over 16,000 feet into the famous Oracle Lake of Lhamo Lhatso (where every Dalai Lama has had prophetic visions). The sacred sites include: Potala, Jokhang, Drepung Monastery, Nechung, Drak Yerpa Valley, The Caves of Songsten Gampo, Jowo Atisha, Guru Rinpoche, Samye Monastery, Lambhu Lagang Castle, Ani Sanku Nunnery, Lama Tsongkhapa Meditation Cave, Tranduk, Kangyur Stupa, Terdak Lingpa, Tashi Lumpo, Champa Zhishi, Sakya, Chokhor Gyal, Milarepa’s Cave, and The Oracle Lake.

About the Author: Glenn H. Mullin (Lama Maitrizopa) is a Tibetologist who studied Buddhism with Tibetan refugees in India for over 12 years. His two most important teachers were the two spiritual masters of the Dalai Lama — Kyabje Ling Rinpoche and Trijang Dorjechang. He has written 25 books on Tibetan culture including a dozen on the lives and works of the early Dalai Lamas. Accompanying Mr. Mullin were photographers Gerry Croce, Rob Deming, William P. Wood Jr. and filmmaker Michael Wiese, who created a companion film (with the same title) on the pilgrimage. Learn more at http://www.DivineArtsMedia.com/our-books#Sites
