Summary
A spiritual love story set in the majestic landscape of Ladakh, in the Himalayas, one man must struggle to find spiritual enlightenment. Tashi, a brilliant young monk, has just completed three years of solitary meditation in a remote hermitage. Brought out of a deep trance, he is taken back to his ancient monastery where he slowly recovers his strength. But Tashi’s return has unexpected results. Despite a life devoted to the rigors of spiritual development, he finds himself experiencing a surprising profound sexual awakening. For the first time, Tashi begins to question the spiritual values of his monastic existence.
