Description

Not so long ago, a young and very curious girl lived in a snow-covered mountain village. Like everyone else in her village, she loved the Snow Lion. Like everyone else in her village, she prayed to the Snow Lion. But because she was so curious, she wanted to SEE the Snow Lion. The sacred stories said that if the villagers sang the sacred songs, read the sacred books, and went to the place of prayer and learning, someday they would see the Snow Lion. So that's what the little girl did. But one day the girl heard the Snow Lion's voice . . . and what the voice told her took her by surprise.
