The Sakyong Mipham Rinpoche of cultish "Shambhala Buddhism" is coming to Pasadena on Sunday, March 25th, as the Los Angeles leg of his tour:
Workshop and panel discussion with radical black Zen Reverend angel Kyodo
williams and special guests exploring how "conversation can help us
build bridges in these challenging times."

| Am I enlightened or an egomaniac? You decide |
He is the son of
Chogyam Trungpa Rinpoche, the outed alcohol-guzzling sex guru (who as an adult married a rich, 16-year-old kid in England) in the documentary
"Crazy Wisdom" (clips on YouTube).

| Tickets from $300 down to $50 for the panel |
