Tibetan Buddhism....Will the REAL Dharma please stand up?
Apech replied to stefos's topic in Buddhist Discussion
Didn't they give you any instructions on what and how to study? There are plenty of books by CNN and plenty of books on Tibetan Buddhism generally. I didn't say you were ignorant ... the Buddhist path is usually seen as having three aspects morality, study and practice. The study allows you to give context to the transmission and in particular the 'view' which will be expressed slightly differently in different traditions. If you are concerned about why there are different traditions it is to do with the richness of the dharma in meeting the needs of a wide variety of people. -

Apech replied to stefos's topic in Buddhist Discussion
yes I suppose (but I'm not sure) it's some kind of reference back to Atisha ... perhaps? in the sense his was the Kadam and this is the new one ... -

Apech replied to stefos's topic in Buddhist Discussion
If you feel connected to or drawn towards Tibetan Buddhism then you need to study for a while under an authentic teacher. Then when you have assimilated enough of the path you can make an assessment as to whether to go further. I don't think you will gain much from standing on the sidelines and wondering about this and that. -

Apech replied to Formless Tao's topic in The Rabbit Hole
I was under the impression that the Nazis designed and implemented the 'final solution' ... I didn't do that ... so why should I take responsibility for it? I don't blame all Germans just Mr. H and his mates. I blame them cos they did it ... simple as that. I am not racist ... I know this about myself ... I don't need your opinion. -

Apech replied to Formless Tao's topic in The Rabbit Hole
What should they say that was good? The trains ran on time? They built volkswagons and lots of autobaans? Lovely line in black chic uniforms? Oh yes and raged catastrophic war in Europe and tried to exterminate the Jews (amongst others) who they labeled as sub-human and so on. -
Yep see the link I posted above.

I don't think it is explicitly stated no ... but on the other hand it is discarded either ...here's a link from HHSakhya Trizin's website and he starts by saying ... "The Tantric path begins as the Buddhist path. There is no important philosophical difference between Tantric Buddhism and Mahayana Buddhism - the difference is one of emphasis and method. Let us first look at the practical beginning of the Tantric path." http://www.hhthesakyatrizin.org/teach_tantra.html
