Damcho Dyson, Tahlia Newland, Dr. Jack Wicks --- The Fall of Sogyal Rinpoche [trigger warning]

My body was the thread through which I could stand and speak before 800 women. Half hidden, half visible. Yet never without its full presence missing.
That which was surrendered, dominated into submission has already been rehabilitated, reborn.
Born from the ground of all possibilities. Given breath by infinite space itself.
“All of her passes into her voice…Her flesh speaks true. She lays herself bare.”**
- Damcho
