Hi Element,

I am reading what you are saying about Jack Kornfield in a state of questioning and surprise. I didn't know about his past or maybe present promiscuity.

We all know that Prince Sidharta was a bit of a lad when living in the palace. After a few decades of sense pleasures, he left his wife and child to go wandering around to find his own happiness. After going to the very extreme of deprivation, he decided that was all wrong and stubbornly sat under a tree until he felt enlightened and became a guru for the next 40 years.

I obviously don't believe a word of what I'm saying. We believe what we like but the truth is in the pudding.

Listening to Jack and reading his works are helping me in hard times. There is some interesting gossip about Master Deshimaru, Cheng Man Ching...

Kindest regards

Gyaltsen
