Why do Charlatans Wax Cryptic? - 21oct21

Writer's picture: Lama Jigme GyatsoLama Jigme Gyatso

A Zen Roshi

enjoyed a hike

on a beautiful spring morn.


Turning to his student

he explained,


“If you perceive this

then you know all you need know

of the Buddha’s path.”


Why did he resort

to such a cryptic form

of communication?


Because the old fraud

was more interested in hiding behind

the illusion of profundity


than he was

in ensuring his student’s

enlightenment.


Like Palpatine who promised Anakin Skywalker

the secret to immortality,

when in actuality, he knew it not.

Let us conclude

with a simple

call to action


In the Tibetan tradition Lamas are supported

not by monasteries but by students

as such the production of these livestreams,

blogs, and class materials is supported

by the generosity of viewers, and listeners, and readers

just like you.
