Buddhist Art of Tibet - In Milarepa's Footstep

​

Etienne Bock, Jean-Marc Falcombello, Magali Jenny

​

Beyond the artistic aspect, this work demonstrates the symbolism and spirituality that emerge from each object and offers an interpretation of the themes from a Buddhist viewpoint. The highlight of the book is the presentation of an unpublished illuminated manuscript retracing the life of Milarepa, the great eleventh-century Tibetan yogi, whose analysis provides an excellent introduction to the great Buddhist principles.

​

Alain Bordier is a traveler and collector of art and Tibetan religious objects.

Etienne Bock is a tibetologist specialised in religious art and literature, and a translator for Buddhist centers.

Jean-Marc Falcombello is a Buddhist teacher, a former cultural journalist and a disciple of Lama Teunsang for four decades.

Magali Jenny holds a doctorate in religious anthropology and is the author of several publications.
