Here is a short biography of Buddha Tonpa Shenrab Miwo, the founder of Yungdrung Bon religion of Tibet. Gyalshen Publications in California has come up with this lively illustrated biography of the Bon teacher who is said to have appeared around 1139 BCE. The rich and admirable culture of Tibet which has won the appreciation of the world around is the ancestral gift from our forefathers of Zhangzhung and Tibet. Origin of this culture can be attributed to some extent to the deeds and blessings of Buddha Tonpa Shenrab Miwo. The text is based on the ancient sutra of mDo 'Dri-med gZi-brjid, the longest version of the Tonpa's biography.  The readers will have a fair glimpse of the twelve deeds of the Tonpa Sherab from his birth to parinirvana. The book is bilingual Tibetan and English, with color illustrations.
