Rinpoche,
I feel somewhat weird leaving a comment in a public setting like this, but I know you see this page, so I felt it was necessary to say. Before I saw your videos on YouTube, I had a very negative impression of Tibetan Buddhism. I thought it was misguided, fanatical, superstitious, etc.
However, after watching your teachings, I formed a very different impression, and started becoming much …more curious about Tibetan Buddhism in general.
Before long, I started attending my local Dharma center, where I now live with my current teacher. In any case, I just wanted to express my gratitude to you, because I don’t know if I would have come to the Dharma without your teachings.
Please live a very long life because, as I personally can attest, you bring tremendous benefit to people all over the world. ♥
Sincerely,
Christopher Seaman
