With all due respect, I don't "need" to do anything. :-) -------So you never need too go

Or must due respect preceed that
act before you respond as well ;)
My knowledge of such things comes primarily from my friend at Naropa. The latest visiting Kempo is from a Tibetan monastery in Bhutan. I will try to find out the particulars for you. The teachings he gave there in Boulder, on his one- day stop, were in Tibetan, translated "on the fly" by exper- ienced translators there. ------Strange we're discussing
'needed' things, and you raise 'the fly.'
I *have* heard such teachings discussed among other Tibetan groups in Santa Fe, similarly oral. To be honest, they were primarily discussed there in the Santa Fe sanghas as a curiosity, because no one had need of them. :-) -------My frend who is always
wiser than myself is who raised the question to me about your friend. I bet my
friend can beat your friend up. But she doesn't like getting into pissing
matches.

get it.

It is possible. Everything I have heard about such teachings as my friend described in the past has been unfortunately second-hand. -------My teachings were first
hand, and then second head. That was fortunate. On my palms.

small world.
> Does your friend suggest some other levels perhaps beyond these? He was remarkably unforthcoming on details. I'll see if I can get him to be less so. :-) --------My friend came, but much
later.

Just as I laugh at your consistent assumption that just because you personally haven't run into something, it doesn't exist. :-) --------He who laughs last
laughs loudest. That's my last assumption that you'll ever have.
