Bright students Ravi, Adi and Surya are angry when they find out that their high school marks are just below the cutoff mark to get an entrance to the college of their choice. Out of frustration, Ravi twangs his guitar during his grandfather's classical music lesson. The old man, instead of getting angry at this behavior, challenges the boys first to a musical contest and then to a cycle tour to Kanyakumari. These challenges test the young kid's minds, characters and endurance.

Under cover of darkness and with no word of his plans, much-beloved Tibetan Buddhist Meditation Master Yongey Mingyur Rinpoche walked away from his life on the international stage to live that of a wandering yogi. Unheard of among eminent teachers today, such a practice is rife with hardships. For Mingyur Rinpoche, these challenges—begging, finding food and shelter, illness, and all the attendant risks of wandering incognito from place to place with the barest of possessions—present fertile ground for deepening insight into the true nature of the mind. Wandering . . . But Not Lost is an intimate account of Mingyur Rinpoche's four-and-a-half-year retreat (June 2011 – November 2015) interspersed with Rinpoche’s own guidance in applying Buddhist wisdom to our daily modern lives that will touch—and inspire—audiences everywhere.
