For anyone who wants access to the teachings of wisdom eccentrics – it’s found within the world we know. Trying to find it in a Land of Snows you may never see is impractical. Even to look to India for wisdom eccentrics is no longer as possible as it was in the 1970s. Those days are more or less gone. The non-dual inspiration however, remains – often in unexpected places.
The wisdom eccentrics of these lays discovered the nature of Mind as human beings.
Rinpoche instructed me to “Tell these stories to your students. Make a book – but tell the stories in the language of the West – so that people will enjoy them and understand them. These are not just stories from the past – they are stories for practitioners everywhere in all times”.
