tibetan

with my recent interest in tibet i got 30 or more books video travelogues; some i owned and some i got from library. besides i also went through lot of dalai lama.

in one word, they were very disappointing

i refuse to believe if jataka stories were contemporary of sakyamuni or that they were were just spun off several centuries after buddha. i saw one bengali buddhist atisha came to tibet around 7 or 8 centuries. his writings became so called tibetan buddhism. i also read lot of tantrik work interlinked  with tibetan buddhism. kali.

we also have parallely kailash and shiva as if to keep balance of mind. tantrik i saw exactly same as what is prevalent in bengal or rajasthan and perhaps elsewhere. i myself witnessed some bengali tantrik making a show of drinking eating meat tamasha and mantras. distasteful.

after lot of thorough study of dalai lama and his doctrine of love compassion and reincarnation ~ i do not see anything worth practicing or achieving. a thousand or more years totally wasted and certainly those long years would not result in anything for anyone including dalai lama.

can love or compassion be practiced in everydays life today. decades ago we have seen drugs and abandoned living. from my own experience i see, in order to reach logical end that happens to be physical silence takes 4 or more decades.

i learnt dalai lama is engaged in performing kalachakra for many years now and all over the world. it is possibly 11 or more days ceremony to bring change or move the wheel of time. new era.

i do not believe in this. it is not possible to even hallucinate effectively or imagine a new reality.
content wise it is no different than old yagna. doing this i am not if one is able to chase away old memory.

we all know the pain of despair and elation of false  hope. can one live all life in delusion? is it not wiser to imagine any outcome. whatever be the outcome. is there a preventive measure?

even if it is not ~ i would say there is no use wasting it performing many times and everyday. can anything be so important! is it not like smoking and addiction?

it is best to know reality as dream with no content ~ future past or present. dream tells us nothing.
