One thing t3rinity (if that is her real name) doesn't seem to get is that a Nath is all these things. I always liked the traditional statement that the Naths 'practiced Hinduism by day and Buddhism by night'. Love it.

Voudoun priest? You're a Nath if I ever heard one.

Later, I studied with an Indian medicine Man named Bearheart. Later I got TM, six advanced techniques, sidhis, and yet later I took Vajrayana vows and got many abishekas. No one teaching contradicted another because there has never been a place for contradictions in my heart.

There are many people especially amongst certain very open minded liberal groups of certain gurus like Chogyal Namkhai Norbu who are able to reconcile that they contain many lineages of teachings in their mindstreams without the need to reconcile those teachings into a strident categorization. This neither makes them deluded, spiritually materialistic, or crazy, or even bad practiitioners. Rather it does show a true unitarian and egalitarian yearing and desire to find truely universal truth as opposed to some small niche of truths.

I applaud him for his efforts and see much much very esoteric prowess and lack of self delusion in his teachings. I pray that his detractors might someday come to universal awakening and appreciation for truth in all its myriad forms as well.

Personally I am contemplating becoming a Voudoun priest.
