Dr. Walter Yealing Evans-Wentz was the first englishman to make it to the Tibetan Lamas, high in the mountaiuns in the early 1900's. He was the first indoctrinated by the Tibetan Lamas at that time. His translation, and interpretation of The Tibetan Book of The Dead is the first also. It is an excellent book, and he was very strict in staying as close to the original text as possible, and yet translate to the english language. He was under the strict guidance of his Lama the entire time.
