Jonathan 4: Le berceau du Bodhisattva
De wieg van Bodhisattva/Die Wiege des Bodhhisattwa
Last page: 1977; album 1979

 

This is the first Jonathan album that Cosey made after having visited the Himalayas; Ladakh and Kashmir. It can be seen in the many detailed scenes of the album: the houses, village fields, the clothing of the Tibetan people, objects of daily life, etc.

The story about the recognition ceremony of the dalaļ lama invokes the political situation of the Tibetan suppression by the Chinese.
