I would have loved to have gone to the monastery at a young age. Instead, I was shipped to the United States. I knew I would travel and live in distant lands. I always felt that it would be somewhere in the East.

Most nights in Taiwan, Tsem Rinpoche would only be fed white rice mixed with sugar, and this caused his teeth to decay. Extensive dental works had to be done on the young Rinpoche when he was brought over to the United States later.
