| 520 | _a"Three Years in Tibet" by Ekai Kawaguchi is a travel memoir written in the early 20th century. The book chronicles the author's journey as a Japanese monk who explores Tibet to study Buddhist texts and immerse himself in Tibetan culture. Kawaguchi's adventures unfold against the backdrop of his determined quest to bridge the gap between Japanese Buddhism and the original texts found in Tibet. The opening of the memoir introduces Ekai Kawaguchi's preparation for his formidable journey to Tibet, detailing the heartfelt farewells he received from friends and family in Japan. He reflects on the pledges made by acquaintances to avoid vices like drinking and fishing, which he sees as acts of goodwill linked to his journey. The narrative sets a tone of dedication and spiritual quest as he departs Japan, highlighting the challenges he anticipates, including the closed-off nature of Tibet and the language barriers he must overcome. His resolve is evident, as he engages with various characters during his travels and conveys an eagerness to learn and grow in understanding of Buddhism through the journey that lies ahead.
