Very True. In 2022, Taiwan's Court decided that the 17th Karmapa is guilty for his sexual assault accusation based on voice recordings and videos. And there has been three different women came forward to tell their stories.
Lord Buddha has said listen to his teachings only that fits with your logic, you can also be critical of his teachings So if some lama has hurt your then Buddha has stated that could happen that’s why you have to be an open minded but guard Buddha’s teachings as the main source but not of some nonsense lama’s
Siddhartha gautam or Buddha is Indo European name and concept. Tibetian monks are from different culture and race and often misinterpret Buddhas teachings.
Why everyone enter a religion without any direction. You must want to learn and achieve Enlightenment just like Buddha done. What is our You need map of directions. The entire chart of a buddhahood Enlightenment and how to start. Without a map, many newbies are lost and will lots of precious time and fail to achievedesire results. If one need to achieve, cultivation of longevity, abundance of food is part of the cultivation
So how do you want to know that when somebody tells you something (for example about a vajrayana teacher), that this is actually the pure, objective truth? Even if you observe something yourself you can not be sure to be free of your very subjective interpretation of that situation. Take everything with a grain of salt and take human psychology into account for all involved individuals (that includes witnesses)
Definitely. I can say, "Peter has raped me" or " Tom has committed tax fraud" or "Mathew has murdered Susan" and that's either true or it is not. I mean, there are situations where you have a gray area and two people can genuinely interpret a situation in two different ways, but there are also situations where there is an objective truth and people might just interpret the incident differently because of psychological reasons. For example the rapist could have been in his (twisted) mind convinced that the victim wanted it.
Good points raised, I recently discovered that the meditation teacher Culadasa had been sleeping with sex workers (he is married). It was disappointing given his high level of attainments and his insistence on moral virtue.
I guess I could say several things about this video. One, there are unethical people in every aspect of life, some more than others (politics or sales?). Second, different cultures' views on issues regarding correct conduct are different. This makes intercultural interactions quite difficult to say the least. Third, on any spiritual path, people will encounter their wounds and their trauma--their darkness, and they will often project them onto people around them--transference. So, did the teacher do something wrong or did the student have issues about being taken advantage of or mistreated in some way? Either might be possible. Lastly, Vajrayana focuses strongly on Guru yoga, but the Guru visualized in solitary practice can be Vajra Guru rather than any particular embodied human. Once a person has taken refuge, they can do the preliminaries and start a Yidam practice, and attain a great deal without sitting next to any Lama. Knowing this, some of this video misses the point. Each person moves toward their own awakening in their own way; often the tools are more important than biased believes about the tool makers or tool dispensers which can then make the individual stop practicing. It is also a great excuse when the individual doesn't want to face the next trauma.
Study hustles and you will 100% know what is going on behind closed doors. People only have to be truthful with their family. That's it. This idea that everyone is one big family goes against the very basis of nature. And God's creation. Go to college if you want to learn.
Chador2017 I don't want students. I'm not a teacher, just someone trying to process my way out of the messy situation I got myself into and speaking for others doing the same thing. I don't expect anyone not going through this process to understand.
The Dalai Lama is NOT A GURU, does not require adulation etc, & is the first one to tell you he is only a man. His teachings boil down to learn from all sources & 'just be good'!
Why all the negative comments? She made some very good points. Did she hit a nerve?
Thank you for the video and the initiative on wordpress. Sorely needed.
The Truth Of The Four Noble Truths/Dhamma Is Not Only Needy But Also Extremely Important.
Very True. In 2022, Taiwan's Court decided that the 17th Karmapa is guilty for his sexual assault accusation based on voice recordings and videos. And there has been three different women came forward to tell their stories.
Ramakrishna paramhansa used to say to his disciples: watch a sadhu by the day- and by the night. Only then trust him....
Very interesting!
A Wounded Heart !

What Is The Truth Of Buddhism.
So how do you want to know that when somebody tells you something (for example about a vajrayana teacher), that this is actually the pure, objective truth?
Even if you observe something yourself you can not be sure to be free of your very subjective interpretation of that situation.

petrairene Does objective truth actually exist?
Definitely. I can say, "Peter has raped me" or " Tom has committed tax fraud" or "Mathew has murdered Susan" and that's either true or it is not.
I mean, there are situations where you have a gray area and two people can genuinely interpret a situation in two different ways, but there are also situations where there is an objective truth and people might just interpret the incident differently because of psychological reasons.

Depends on the wife I guess

Ma’am Are You Not Tired Of Constant Talking What Is Goodness ? To do good is hard.
To do evil is easy.
Study hustles and you will 100% know what is going on behind closed doors. People only have to be truthful with their family. That's it. This idea that everyone is one big family goes against the very basis of nature. And God's creation. Go to college if you want to learn.
Who would be your future student?... Take them to science lab.. and show them solid truth in the lab... otherwise i m feeling sorry for you...

arre kehna kya chahte ho
Walking and videoing, horrible SA accent, rambling on and on, makes for a bad video.
I literally have no clue what she’s talking about
What if there wasn't a truth or the truth. We all have our own journeys to our own truths..
The Dalai Lama is NOT A GURU, does not require adulation etc, & is the first one to tell you he is only a man. His teachings boil down to learn from all sources & 'just be good'!
From my heart and soul till death I respect and will follow His Holiness The 14th Dalai Lama 🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏
You were following a idol with clay feet Madam. Replace every "we, us and our" with I and me and then you have it right.
Do you even know what Dhramma is? please dont equate it with false view, If you dont know please look it up and tell me if theres is any room for self
idol of dead man crucified?
Truth is not something "non-conceptual". "Non-conceptuality" is the very opposite of truth.
