If Google is any indication, these Halifaxians have been referred to as a
Royal Family for some time.
This is Pema Chodron's turf, my friends.
Halifax, Nova Scotia.
Does she grovel to Sokyong and his missus?
Does she prostrate to the Royal Children?
If so, has Pema ever told her adoring democratic citizen audiences any of this?
What does it do to the inner life of someone acculturated as a citizen in
a participatory democracy, in a nation whose identity was created by
ousting a crowned monarch if that person in the name of liberation,
spends life bowing to, even prostrating in front of a "King" -- or pictures of this "King"?
Do Shambhala teachers tell visitors up front that if they become Shambhala students they will find themselves looking up to a "King" and "Queen"?
How many self respecting Americans would go near Shambhala teachings if they were told this up front?
And -- tax payers are owed some respect. After all, because we pay tax and Sakyong and Shambhala do not pay tax, those of us who pay taxes indirectly subsidize them - and subsidize their pretensions.
Chogyam expressed contempt for American democracy. He liked our dollars, though.
He also very much liked our women.
He liked our money. He liked our females.
He failed to respect our nation's principles -
All in all a shabby return for America's hospitality to him.
