@jasonlouv @Tommi_M_Elo Hmm… I’d say that *Tibetan Buddhism* in America hides behind “Buddhist ethics” http://meaningness.wordpress.com/2013/11/27/vajrayana-is-not-tibetan-buddhism/ …
@jasonlouv Which? Those around hierarchy? If you want magic without hierarchy, maybe Western Ceremonial Magic of some brand?

@Meaningness But I'm guessing we're both, broadly, on the "liberate the tech" page? -
@jasonlouv I think Vajrayana tech is grossly over-hyped. It’s the attitude that does the work. - 3 more replies

@Meaningness Because of this, many of its students "graduate" to Vajrayana, where they face an even more severe set of hierarchy issues -
@jasonlouv Ah, that’s very interesting and makes sense… I’ve seen some cases of this…
