A biography from the Jets n-Milarepa being the Jets n-Kahbum or biographical history of Jets n-Milarepa, according to the late Lama Kazi Dawa-Samdup's English rendering. Edited with introductions and annotations.Dr. W. Y. Evans-Wentz was born in Trenton, New Jersey and grew up in La Mesa, California, just east of San Diego. He graduated from Stanford University in 1907, then received a degree from Oxford University in 1910. In the next three decades he was to become a world authority on Tibetan Buddhism. Eventually published under his name were those now well-known, ancient treatises which he edited and annotated, the Tibetan Book of the Dead, Tibet's Great Yogi Milarepa, Tibetan Yoga and Secret Doctrines, and the Tibetan Book of the Great Liberation. In recognition of his life work, Oxford University conferred upon him a Doctorate of Science in comparative religion in 1931.
