(1935-1984) born in Tibet, where he studied until 1959, when the Chinese invasion of Tibet forced him into exile in India. Lama Yeshe continued to study and meditate under the direction of the foremost Tibetan masters of the time in India until 1967, when, with his chief disciple, Lama Thubten Zopa Rinpoche, he went to Nepal. Two years later he established Kopan Monastery, in order make Buddhism available to Westerners. In 1974, requested by their students, the Lamas began making annual teaching tours to the West and as a result of these travels a worldwide network of Buddhist teaching and meditation centres--the Foundation for the Preservation of the Mahayana Tradition--began to develop. In 1984, at the age of forty-nine, Lama Yeshe passed away.

The disciples were absorbed in a discussion of Lao-tzu's dictum: "Those who know, do not say; Those who say, do not know." When the master entered, they asked him what the words meant. Said the master, "Which of you knows the fragrance of a rose?" All of them indicated that they knew. Then he said, "Put it into words." All of them were silent.
