Summary of Vicki Mackenzie's Cave In The Snow

Please note: This is a companion version & not the original book. Book Preview:

#1 The woman I met in Pomaia, Italy, had seemingly stepped out of the pages of myth and legend. She had ventured where I knew I would never tread. Her thirst for knowing had pushed her beyond the safe confines of a four-week meditation course.

#2 The most senior Tibetan Buddhist nun in the Western world is Tenzin Palmo. She had been called to a cave when her time in the cave had come to an end. She had been ordained back in 1964, when she was just twenty-one.

#3 I had been waiting for years for someone to publicly announce that they were going to become a female Buddha, and Tenzin Palmo had done just that. Her track record of exceptional meditational ability and tenacity made me believe that she might do it.

#4 The history of female spirituality in Buddhism is thin, and there are no living examples of female Buddhists. The lack of female spiritual excellence is discouraging for women practitioners who are trying to follow The Way.
