I stumbled into the Kalachakra week-long teaching given by HHDL in Sarnath -- with the sand painting of the mandala and all. Meditation on that, or mastery of it, is said to do great things. It is so detailed and intricate. To practice and master "goking" it, did seem a lot more sophisticated than TM. Then again TM's dogma is simplicity is the key. ------------------------ Yahoo!
