As mentioned yesterday, it was not until 1974 that I got the real-deal, and a doublewhammy at that. It was February 12th, 1974 that I first met the great Tibetan siddha Chögyam Trungpa Rinpoche. I had read his books, particularly "Cutting through Spiritual Materialism" and heard he was coming to the U-M Campus to speak. I called the number that was listed for more information and ended up designing the poster for the event and being Trungpa's chauffer for the weekend. What a life-changing event that was! |
