The Way of the White Clouds by Anagarika Govinda & Robert A.F. Thurman

The Way of the White Clouds by Anagarika Govinda, with a foreword by Robert A.F. Thurman, is a spiritual travel memoir and a profound exploration of Tibetan Buddhism. First published in 1966, this modern classic follows Govinda's pilgrimage across the Tibetan plateau in the 1930s and 1940s, offering a rare, first-hand account of the sacred rituals, monasteries, and mystical landscapes of a now-vanished Tibet.

Blending Eastern philosophy, meditative insight, and poetic observation, this book is a deep reflection on faith, impermanence, and the beauty of the spiritual path.

Memorable Quote (from the book)
"Only in silence can we begin to understand the language of the sacred."

Translation (Sinhala):
"නිවන්සඳහන් භාෂාව තේරුම් ගැනීමට අපට හැකියාවක් ඇති වන්නේ නිශ්ශබ්දතාවයෙන් පසුවයි."

Translation (Tamil):
"பரிசுத்தத்தின் மொழியை நாம் புரிந்து கொள்வது அமைதியில் மட்டுமே."
