Episode 36 - "School Of Unlearning"

Published: Oct. 20, 2022, 8:41 a.m.

On Saturday October 15th, 2022, on the eve of his 46th Birthday, Jaymee was inducted into the Nyingma Lineage of Tibetan Buddhism by the Venerable Lama Lhanang Rinpoche in an intimate public ceremony held at the future site of WANTS/NEEDS. At this ceremony, Jaymee took a formal Bodhisattva Vow, dedicating himself to the service of all living beings throughout this and all future lifetimes, and was given the name "Jidbe Jamso" by Lama, which in Tibetan means "Ocean Of Compassion". Jaymee was joined by a generous attendance of family, friends, and a collection of students of his from around the country, many of whom he had never met in person but had developed longterm, intimate relationships with over the pandemic via Zoom. After the Vow ceremony, Jaymee invited 4 of these students to join him for a podcast to discuss their individual journeys, and what makes the Love Is The Author community and teachings so damn special.
