This book introduces the reader in a comprehensible way to the theoretical and practical implications of the tulku system. Thge book offers real insight into the profound mystery of the recognition and enthronement.

This custom has provided a principal source of spiritual renewal for Himalayan Buddhists for the past thousand years. The introduction places the subject of reincarnate meditation masters within two major contexts: the activity of bodhisattvas, and in modern Tibetan society, where the reappearance of past masters is both natural and profoundly moving.
