" The trouble is I love you so much" is the classic refrain of an abusive narcissist. How many people have been subjected to constant physical and emotional abuse only to be told it is coming from a place of love? It is sad to hear this being given as the explanation by a man who clearly had lost all sense of reality as power had corrupted him and his shadow had emerged to rain down misery on others. The teachings are one thing - the abusive behaviour of the teacher is another. It's a familiar story the world over and will continue so long as people fail to stand up to these people and call them out.
Watched the entire series, thx for posting. Pretty much sums things up, parts 1 through 4... I felt like I could be a part 5 while watching. My big take away was in what Tahlia Newland admitted, which I do as well (however, from within the Shambalian tradition). Love that there are four parts of lama (in case one part fails), with UA-cam being part of those backups.
The answer to that question is a big NO. SR didn't even do that with his oldest student of 40 years, never mind allowing this guy!!!! Jan used to spend his time chasing all the young females in Lerab Ling, who were very much creeped out by him. Don't think he got any as he was too creepy for them.
It's comprehensible. Denial comes from pain. And it' is terribly painful. Already in 1994 the abuser paid 10;000.000 dollar to silence his acts. And continued in acting as an enlightened god. For the next 20 and more years, denial and silencing was part of his game. Probably convinced of the fact he was so enlightened that he could follow his instincts blindly. I guess even Trump would doubt himself more, than this guy did. Overview : www.telegraph.co.uk/men/thinking-man/sexual-assaults-violent-rages-inside-dark-world-buddhist-teacher/ But he knew that he had to take care of his business. People who had doubts were threatened with tantric curses that would effect them for their actual lives and the vast amount of reincarnations to come. The guy got so stuck with the idea that he was a enlightened master, that could he say or do whatever he wanted. Until now he never apologized : it's still revictiming stuff: talking about "allegations" and suggesting "students" are still not understanding his holy wisdom. Even now some lama's are accusing followers for his illnees : those who broke their samaya (eternal obedience) to this abuser, would be giving "negative karma" and therefore the responsiblity the cancer he's receiving treatment for. If this would be a victim-blaming contest... The guy didn't even write his own best-selling book. It turnes out to be a salesman wearing monk clothes, with more western scholar hours that his little buddhist training. And I know; hard to believe. There must be a middle way...
