    @Vangelis, I hope you meant impermanent, not permanent.

    Another reminder of how much I failed when I lived in Bloomington. I could have met Norbu.

    Really?

    I was going to school in Bloomington in 2007 and the Dalai Lama came, I just sort of scoffed. "Who really cares? What's so important about this man?"

    My friends were stoked but failed to supply a decent argument about his importance not themselves being Buddhists.

    What a big mistake. I missed the DL, Norbu and that damn restaurant.

    You've gotta have the realization within. I didn't connect to the Dalai Lama until I got Rigpa transmission from ChNNR in 05'. Only then did I start to feel and see the Dalai Lama and have dreams with him, etc.

    You have to feel where he's coming from, from within your own state of mind. Like anything really... if you are to "get it."

    I was a staunch atheist then.

    I abhorred religion then.

    I would have laughed at the DL.
