Publisher's Synopsis
Volume 2 of A View From A Height. The Bodhisattva continues the epic narrative which began in the Dakini. This is an account of how the supernatural affects the natural world, and how we may have roles in these events of which even we are not aware. John Boorman does not know he is a bodhisattva, an enlightened being whose mission is to bring about the enlightenment of other sentient beings. In a previous incarnation, Boorman became lost in the illusion of Maya, and started a series of evil events which he must now stop. Although once again trapped in the illusion of the world, he has unknown friends who have come to help him and to see him succeed or die trying. Spanning China, Tibet, and Nepal, and with a climactic ending high in the Himalayas, The Bodhisattva is an exciting adventure tale told by a most extraordinary narrator of many names. It is a modern tale of the supernatural set in today's world of politics and intrigue.
