Teshi Tsering is a four year old little boy who lives in Tibet, annexed by China in 1950. He is the reincarnation of Khensur Rinpoche, a Tibetan monk who died four years before, but the little boy does not know about it yet. Along with thousands of other monks, Choenzy followed the Dalaï Lama in exile in India. Khensur Rinpoche was his spiritual guide. A dedicated disciple, he prays for his spiritual guide’s reincarnation. One day the oracle reveals that his most cherished dream has come true. Choenzy sets off to find Teshi Tsering. Khensur Rinpoche’s former disciple thus becomes the father of a four year old child.
