Enlightened Tantric Yogi? Or Abusive, Capitalist Con Artist? ~ Adele Wilde-Blavatsky
by elephantjournal.com on Jan 5, 2012
My first reaction on watching the video was it was very focused on Kalu's pain and grievance. This was in stark contrast to the vast view and understanding of karma, impermanence, selflessness and emptiness that we are used to seeing embodied in great Buddhist practitioners.403 views
