Marc Notes: Eight years after Breakfast with Buddha skeptic Otto Ringling and Mongolian monk Volya Rinpoche set off across America on another unexpected road trip of discovery--from Indian reservations and farming towns to Colorado's New Age culture and the nonspiritual streets of Las Vegas--; Provided by publisher. Publisher Marketing: In Roland Merullo's Breakfast with Buddha, an inveterate skeptic and a world-renowned spiritual master set off across America. Now, some eight years later, the world has spun a few times, and what had been certainties in both men's lives have proved fleeting. Otto's future is less than clear after the death of his wife, the departure of his children to make their own lives, and the loss of the only remaining structure in his life -- his long-held job. For Rinpoche, the changes have been less daunting but nonetheless dramatic, as the encroachment of both technology and daily society threaten the solitude and peace of his North Dakota retreat, and he has been forced to acknowledge that his mysteriously gifted young daughter may be the next Dalai Lama.
