Dear Rolf Harrer:
:46:23
I'm a person you don 't know...
:46:25
a man you 've never met.
:46:28
But you are someone
who occupies my mind...
:46:30
and my heart...
:46:32
in this dlstant land
where I have gone.
:46:36
If you can imagine a hidden place
tucked safely away from the world...
:46:40
concealed by walls
of high, snowcapped mountains--
:46:43
a place rich with all the strange
beauty of your nighttime dreams--
:46:49
then you know where I am.
:46:53
In the country
where I am traveling, Tibet...
:46:56
people believe if they walk
long distances to holy places...
:46:59
It purifles the bad deeds
they've committed.
:47:02
They believe
the more difficult the journey...
:47:05
the greater the depth
of purification.
:47:10
I've been walking from one faraway
place to the next for many years--
:47:15
as long as you have lived.
:47:18
I have seen seasons change
across the high plateaus.
:47:22
I have seen wild kiangs
migrate south in winter...
:47:25
and sweep back across the fields
when spring appears.
:47:30
In this place,
where time stands still...
:47:32
it seems that everything is moving...
:47:35
including me.
:47:40
I can 't say I know where I'm going...
:47:42
nor whether my bad deeds
can be purified.
:47:46
There are so many things
I have done which I regret.
:47:50
But when I come to a full stop,
I hope you will understand...
:47:54
that the distance between us
is not as great as it seems.
:47:59
Wlth deep affection...
