Interviewer: Samuel Bercholz

Posted: April 4, 2012


Traleg Rinpoche speaks with Sam Bercholz about:

The dangers of practicing buddhism without studying and becoming knowledgeable about dharma

The danger of imitating Tibetan culture

How the Kagyu and Nyingma lineages can take root in the West

Trungpa RinpocheÂ's unique approach to teaching dharma and tantra in the West

The relationship one has with one's root guru when the guru is no longer living

What he learned about Trungpa Rinpoche's teachings while still living at Rumtek

The importance of studying Trungpa RinpocheÂ's teachings

Thank you to Leigh Tilson for video recording and editing this interview.
