THE OLD LADY'S FINGER and Other Mahamudra Teachings

Featuring Ven. Lama Chime Rinpoche

In this rare film appearance, Lama Chime transmits Mahamudra teachings that have been passed down in an unbroken line of oral transmissions from the 10th-century scholar Naropa. Lama Chime brings a profound understanding of how to apply this ancient wisdom to modern life in a poignant, humorous, yet vivid style.

About Ven. Lama Chime Rinpoche

Ven. Lama Chime Rinpoche left Tibet at about the same time as the Dalai Lama, and was one of the first reincarnate lamas to come to the West. He has lived in England since 1965 and worked for 16 years as curator of the Tibetan Language Collection at the British Library in London. He taught extensively throughout Europe and established Marpa House, the first Tibetan Buddhist Centre in England. His students include American author and Buddhist nun Pema Chödrön and musicians Mary Hopkin, the late David Bowie and Tony Visconti.

All wholesale proceeds go to the Dharma Trust charity.
