The Dalai Lama...who the heck knows the guy, RC? We know a public image of a carefully crafted and marketed guru presented to America by an anti-Christian media and his Western followers. He does not express the same knowledge and power of God and His Creation as Jesus presented.
Do his differences with God as Jesus taught to us result in the Dalai Lama leading God’s children astray? God knows! That’s good enough for me. If were the Dalai Lama, I would yeild to Jesus where there is any difference. It is not a game.
Sara, as you well know, I am confused, in a state of confusion, going through hell of my own, witnessing the worst of humanity among Christian church goers, one of them my birth sister, who at the same time consult Tarot and other occultist magics. And who betrayed me and betrayed others just like a-ringing-a-bell, to quote Chuck Berry. Where is Jesus in all of that, the Church, where am I? I can only ask hard, desperate questions, which the strict doctrine doesn’t seem answer.
If the Dalai Lama is a marketing image, then I know a Nepalese man, who is good and saintly, giving up a career in the U.S, to run at a great sacrifice an orphanage on the outskirts of Kathmandu, just because, I don’t know, perhaps because he himself came from one. Is he headed for hell?
I am on a Grand Jury this week, seeing, as you can imagine, the absolute worst of humanity. (And I am not allowed to discuss any of it.)
