The Abbot of Tengboche Monastery describes the Buddhist culture, oral history, and traditions of the Sherpa people from the Khumbu Valley below Mount Everest. The Revised 4th Edition.

Visitors from many countries come here to see and to climb Chomolungma, Mt. Everest. Often you want to know about the culture of our Sherpa people. Therefore, we have made this little book of cultural information to help you understand our way of life. We originally made this book through the Sherpa Cultural Centre project at Tengboche monastery in Solu-Khumbu district of East Nepal. The Centre has been built because so many people are interested in Sherpa culture and stories. I wanted to make a book about the Sherpa's heritage. Khumbu is changing and people may forget their culture and stories. For all Nepal and Sherpa and Nepali people, we plan to have the school and the cultural centre here for the future.
