Book excerpt: Rhythms of a Himalayan Village fuses splendid photographs and text to capture the Buddhist Sherpa community of Gompa Zhung in northeastern Nepal, revealing a world where the sacred and secular coexist in harmony. The opening section of the book, Celebration, recreates a festival called Mani Rimdu. At its heart is a mystery play in which every event corresponds to a different aspect of an individual spiritual awakening as he moves beyond greed, anger and negligence to illumination.
