I wonder where Trungpa learned those cognitive behavioral techniques. That's dangerous.
I also wonder why followers like Chandler, couldn't process their experiences and form opinions outside of the meditation hall. I suppose they trusted their teacher, so they tried to comply with his instructions even during their "down time". And once she left, she probably had to consciously retrieve all those experiences from her memory, and process them 30 years after the fact. That's a TON of personal work, emotional work!
