PATH OF THE SWAN
The Maitreya chronicles are a tibetan-buddhist fantasy series, which tell the story of lama ozer and tashi as they travel the lands in answer to a call from shambala. They leave the hidden monastery in the beginning of the story as their llama receives a call from the legendary kingdom while in a trance. The two have to battle freezing temperatures, tough mountain passes, and many dark forces which try to thwart their progress as their path takes them through sikkim and tibet. Besides the geographical difficulties, they also have to face celestial beings like yakshis, yeshe a golden dakini, and prince a-karo, as they travel through the legendary silver fortress in tibet. A-karo and prince narsimha are yeshe's guardians and she must travel with them to earth.
