Hi Jade R,

It might be possible for some people, but its not for me personally. I decided I needed to move on from Tibetan Buddhism and then did some investigating before eventually deciding to focus on the Theravada Forest Tradition . For me it only works learning about and practising offline with one tradition at a time.

I also find, in general, that relying on teachers who involk a fuzzy emotional response and a subtle need to always be dependent on them, isn't the direction I want to go in.
