all lama marut all the time!

woodman’s:
lama marut will be at woodman’s function hall next wednesday, june 20. his presentation is entitled, The Buddha was Not a Buddhist. very compelling topic dealing with how the message of a visionary, whether it be buddha, christ or someone else, becomes institutionalized (not in the sanitarium way) and how people hold on to it as the only truth as they start to separate themselves from those who don’t believe in the same things they do. you can see how this might lead to problems. lama marut’s talk will show how we can ditch the dogma and get down to the beautiful core of a spiritual practice. he loves this stuff and will most likely be on fire! you should try to come to this one, i think you’d like it! you might also find this interesting: lama marut’s inspiration and lineage
book tour:

lama marut has a new book, the spiritual renegade’s guide to the good life. he’s touring internationally with the book and will have three official signing events on the north shore next week and two in boston in august. it would be awesome if you could make it to the annie.
