I love quotations because it is a joy to find thoughts one might have, beautifully expressed with much authority, by someone recognized wiser than oneself - Marlene Dietrich

LAMA SURYA DAS
Truth is everywhere.
It knows no religious, cultural, temporal or ethnic bounds.
Truth is the perfect circle.
Its centre is everywhere.
Its circumference stretches into infinite space.
John, LSD is a PHONY! Check out this guy, don't be fooled!!
Speaking of false Dharma teachers... (Lama) Surya Das is Tibetan Buddhism's bad-boy! This guy is a one man army of bad press for all BUDDHISTS! He's married, has sex w/his female students, begins the affairs while on retreat, dates other women while he's at it and when the Dzogchen Board Members and the 3 Associate teachers working under Das find out he throws a fit like a 2-year old and they ALL RESIGN! This guy lost 75% of his sangha as well... now he's on Facebook and Twitter drumming up business w/his new girlfriend who's married! Some hippy doctor in Laguna Beach. If you mention his name around a Tibetan born Dharma teacher, they either ignore you as if they did not hear his name or they make a sour face... sorry to say we tried to tell his sangha many times that he was a fake but they had to learn for themselves... and now they ignore him too! He's known as a "player" and women like having affairs with him... its the same old story, sex and money!

I'm shocked!!!
I knew nothing about Lama Surya Das, but I found the quote and really liked it.
Thanks for that information.
