Book Club Ideas

The Sherpa’s Burden is a thought-provoking read and provides fertile ground for ideas and discussion. Here are some questions to consider:

  • When does an accidental mistake rise to the level of responsibility?

  • Was it wrong or right for Norbu to enter his son in the monastery?

  • How did Norbu and Lila’s relationship mature? What could they have done better?

  • What does the story of Angulimala and the Buddha mean to you?

  • Who was the old woman at Mount Kailash, and what is the meaning of the endless knot?

  • What is the purpose of guilt? When is it okay to let it go?

  • Which character resonated with you the most? Why?
