Thrungpa Rinpoche and Buddhism in North America

Choegyam Trungpa in North America
"Tuned in Dropouts Lost Highways: Dispatches from the Shadows of the Rocky Mountains" 9.12.2020
"In 1970, a man named Chogyam Trungpa Rinpoche came to the US with the mission of teaching Tibetan Buddhism to Westerners. He enthralled hippies across the country and paved the way for a distinctly American Buddhism. But there was also a "shadow side" to his charisma. On this episode, Noel and Tyler explore the life and times of a beloved teacher who was no stranger to controversy."
