Description
I hope you find this unique, real-life travel experience of an Undead to be just as unique and exciting a true adventure story for the living.

Summary
Thanks very much for your kindness and attention. Have a good reading ride around the world with the guy doctors said would die over four years ago, was actually pronounced dead at a hospital fifty years ago, and has been predicted to die many times in between.

Excerpt
My name is Tenzin Kharma Trinley. That translates from Tibetan to English as “The Activity of the Buddha Teaching.” There are two reasons why I haven't already killed you or several people just like you: hallucinogenic drugs and a collection of thirteen songs. I wasn't always Tenzin.
