Wisdom's Pill is one of those Tibetan folk tales, which has not seen the light of publications. It is one of those many folk tales, which my mother told me when I was a child. I am truly grateful to my mother who despite those hard early days of exile from Tibet kindly found time to marvel us with the wealth of Tibetan folk tales. I dedicate this book to her for her love and courage and for being a loving mother.

With this I thank my Uncle Sangpo la for encouraging me to put this tale into writing and for his guidance. I thank Ven. Rinzin Yungdrung and Kalsang Khedup la for their comments and editorial suggestion. I must acknowledge the wonderful work done by Dr. Lauren Alderfer of the American Embassy School in going through the manuscript several times and making the book more presentable and readable. Lastly, I hope the tale will stir the imagination of children around the world as it stirred mine.
