Jigme

Jigme, the youngest of the King's sons, was permitted to follow his calling and enter the monastery.  There he advanced so quickly in his studies, that the title of Lama was conferred on him at a young age.  His dearest hope is that he would be able to follow the Buddha into enlightenment and step from the pain of existence into nirvana.
