Entering the Diamond Way
Tibetan Buddhism Meets the West
Here is the genuinely compelling story, and spiritual odyssey, of Ole and Hannah Nydahl, who in 1968 became the first Western students of the great Tibetan master, His Holiness the 16th Gyalwa Karmapa.

Ole and Hannah Nydahl's exciting travels on the worn path between the green lowlands of Europe to the peaks of the Himalayas, led them to experience the skillful teachings of numerous Tibetan lamas who helped transform their lives into "limitless clarity and joy."
From their first contact with Tibetan Buddhism in Katmandu in the form of a lama with extraordinary psychic powers, Ole and Hannah encountered the full spectrum of the Buddhist "view." Their real aim in writing this book is "to form a bridge between two worlds, and especially to share with all who are looking for their true being... an introduction to a time-proven way to Enlightenment.
After being recognized and trained by some of the greatest lamas of the Kagyu Lineage, Ole now transmits the blessing of the lineage and travels, as authorized lama and Buddhist meditation master, teaching and establishing centers of Tibetan Buddhism, while Hannah is a much sought-after translator. Their countless friends everywhere work hard to assure that the prophecy of Padmasambhava is fulfilled:
"When the fire ox drives on wheels and the iron bird flies everywhere, my teaching will come to the land of the white man."
