Notovitch was a Russian doctor who journeyed extensively throughout Afghanistan, India, and Tibet. During one of his journeys he was visiting Leh, the capital of Ladak, near where the Buddhist convent Himis stands. Due to an accident that resulted in his leg being broken he stayed awhile at the Himis convent. Here he saw a scroll that described a man from the west whose description was uncanny and resembled Jesus of Nazareth.
