Crazy Wisdom
by Chögyam Trungpa
by Chögyam Trungpa
For those of you enchanted by Chongpa's teaching, please first read Heidegger's "on the essence of truth" before pouring out your fulsome adulation of Chongpa's wisdom. Just like D.T. Suzuki who sells Carus teaching as Japanese Zen, Chongpa is selling Heidegger (and probably a few other existentialists) as Tibetan crazy wisdom. I feel sorry that most of the Westerners could not recognize their own reflections in the mystic Tibetan mirror. This makes feel how education is crucial to any cultural exchange. If you don't even know your own tradition, on what basis can you understand a foreign culture?
