The Gyalwang Drukpa?(and yes, I think the head of the dragon order is a false prophet, and I'm willing to debate it on buddhist doctrinal grounds if anyone takes offense to that statement)

Heh, you're right, he's head of the monastic order, so I gave DL the wrong title. I guess "leader to the head of the dragon order" would be more accurate.The Gyalwang Drukpa?
The different orders have different heads, the Dalai Lama was the political ruler of Tibet but he doesn't have a great deal of authority over lineages other than the Gelug (which means "virtuous ones"), the Drukpa ("dragon") included. Of course there was the whole story of Blavatsky saying the Drukpa were all black magicians, which I don't think is really true (veneration of Drukpa Kunley excluded), actually it comes from the fact that some Tibetans use the word "dragon" to refer to sorcerers rather than to the Drukpa lineage.Heh, you're right, he's head of the monastic order, so I gave DL the wrong title.

His visit to CERN is interesting...
No, not Vajrayana itself, but the current Dalai Lama. Look up buddhist doctrine on suicide...The different orders have different heads, the Dalai Lama was the political ruler of Tibet but he doesn't have a great deal of authority over lineages other than the Gelug (which means "virtuous ones"), the Drukpa ("dragon") included.

Anyway I'm curious as to what you said about having a problem with Tibetan Buddhism on "Buddhist doctrinal grounds"...? I'm pretty familiar with the fundamental doctrines of the Vajrayana and I don't see them as being in contradiction with any other form of Mahayana Buddhism.
As to the Dalai Lama visiting CERN, well he probably gets invited to a lot of places. I honestly think the whole hype about CERN is way overblown, obviously they could have spent the money on alleviating poverty but that's about it. All these neurotic Abrahamic people are like "OMG there's a statue of Shiva outside" as if that's something really bad. Not as if it was just a gift from the Indian government, and anyway there's nothing wrong with Shiva at all.
They are thoughtforms of light, not matter. That's my theory anyway.UFOs are Tulpas?
Well generally speaking suicide is not considered a very good idea. From the current Dalai Lama, I found this quote:No, not Vajrayana itself, but the current Dalai Lama. Look up buddhist doctrine on suicide...
My misgivings about CERN have nothing to do with Lord Shiva, I assure you.
Thanks. This is why I think VC should have a "high strangeness" section.Thousands witness UFO Over New Jersey Sept 14, 2020, 4 Videos, UFO Sighting News.

Not sure where to put this, they’re claiming it was a Goodyear blimp. Doesn’t look like any blimp I’ve ever seeen plus no advertising on it at all so would be pointless to even fly it if it were one.
My Facebook post just got fact checked by the Facebook police. Wonder who reported me? I only have close family and friends on there. The PTB are working overtime I guess.Thousands witness UFO Over New Jersey Sept 14, 2020, 4 Videos, UFO Sighting News.

... basically confirming there's something to it. Otherwise, why would they care? Just a silly UFO story!My Facebook post just got fact checked by the Facebook police. Wonder who reported me? I only have close family and friends on there. The PTB are working overtime I guess.
I really don’t think anyone I know would report me though. That’s why I’m confused. I’ve known pretty much everyone on there for 20 years +... basically confirming there's something to it. Otherwise, why would they care? Just a silly UFO story!
I would guess that the reports are likely complemented by some amount of keyword tagging.
You struck a keyword for the algorithm most likely. Strange Facebook won’t let you talk about ufosI really don’t think anyone I know would report me though. That’s why I’m confused. I’ve known pretty much everyone on there for 20 years +
All I did was repost the link. And said “look babe you were right” and tagged my husbandYou struck a keyword for the algorithm most likely. Strange Facebook won’t let you talk about ufos
social media platforms ramped up their censorship like crazy this year. They are happy to censor or fact check something which even has nothing to do with the target issue even. a chess youtuber I like got censored because he was saying “black” and “white”.All I did was repost the link.

Different part of jersey then where I’m from so I don’t think so. There was an earthquake out there a week ago and they all felt that.social media platforms ramped up their censorship like crazy this year.
