Host Michael Taft speaks with Rin’dzin Pamo and Jared Janes about their new challenge, entitled “Evolving Floor,” which is a group of practitioners that seeks to reinterpret and revitalize Vajrayana follow in a recent Western context. Subjects embrace: the failure of Tibetan Buddhism to adapt to Western tradition, the significance of the worldview in follow, creating new language round meditation, cheese-filled dorje snacks, and way more.
Rin’dzin Pamo is a British born Vajrayana practitioner residing within the US. They have been an apprentice within the Aro gTér custom of Tibetan Buddhism for twenty years and are an skilled Dzogchen meditator and mentor. Rin’dzin acquired the London College of Economics Fei Xiaotong prize for his or her Masters analysis on the Chinese language tech trade. They labored on worldwide improvement initiatives in India, Africa and the Center East and as a program director for Amnesty Worldwide.

With the assistance of Rin’dzin, he transitioned into Vajrayana-inspired follow in early 2019.
