Progress Report
This weekend's retreat with Lama Gursam leaves me a little speechless. Which is a pretty bad position for someone who writes a blog to be in. The football which was/is Vajra Konchog Ling got moved forward. Lama Gursam is in the process of setting up The Bodhicitta Foundation as a charitable organization and wants VKL to be part of that. He also said it's okay to host other teachers, specifically the lamas from TMC, but he doesn't want us under the organizational structure of TMC. That seems to be agreeable to everyone involved, so I guess we'll move forward on that basis. As I've mentioned before, I have the problem of divided loyalties between the different teachers I know. I've given serious thought to quitting KTD and throwing my lot in with TMC, especially in light of recent disagreements I've had with the staff there. But for the present I'll just let things stay as they are and see what develops.
