Sultan of South America
Simon Luna and I started the San Antonio Dharma Study Group in 1974. He was a wonderful friend and colleague. I don't think then I realized how lucky I was. The two couples were best friends and we had our daughters within a week of one another, both named Sera, Sarah. He was always very kind and supportive. Tremendous equanimity. What an inspitation his hard work has been. He reminds me somewhat of an Arhat figure. Also, Thrangu, Rinpoche. I lovingly referred to him as the Sultan of South America. They were very lucky, also. Probably now they will realize how lucky. He is a man who will be missed. Completely heartbreaking. The best of the best, I think.
