Dear Tara,
Thank you for your
inspiring and comforting comments in your last email.
Dzongsar Khyentse
was the one who wounded me most. He just became too spoilt. When we first
met he confided in me a lot. He wanted out. Two interesting things he said
were:
a) His father
Trinley Norbu never helped anyone;
b) Dzogchen doesn't
work.
He used to joke that
he had been brainwashed. He was a lovely man then. Then he suddenly
decided he would become a great Rinpoche. He started writing crap articles
rather in the style of Trinley Norbu. All he wanted to do was to make
films, and he cleverly drew very wealthy Hong Kong students. I guess that
was the way for him to get his freedom, but hurting a lot of people along
the way. If you stick in with dogged devotion, and are prepared to be
treated badly or at least taken advantage of, you will certainly have
"good karma" with Lamas! I had completely trusted him but he just
abandoned me having said, "It looks like I'm abandoning you but I'm not"
ha ha! I was so bitterly disappointed when I read his truly awful article
"Distortion," and I felt he had fallen under the influence of Trinley
Norbu. Now he says he's gay....I think that is the real reason I was
dumped. What a deceitful mixed up man. I read an article on his webpage
recently about the making of his latest film in Bhutan, calling him a
Saint. At least he's a good actor. I was very surprised and relieved to
read his article in reply to yours. Still pompously written but basically
supportive. Maybe he's got a conscious after all.
