This pioneering ethnographic work on Western practitioners of Bon, or bonpos, presents the first in-depth study of the transition of the Yungdrung Bon religion, Tibet's so-called "indigenous religion," to the West in the context of globalization. It shows how Bon, including Dzogchen meditation, is lived by its followers in the West and how a particular religion expands and integrates into new cultural settings as a consequence of globalization.
