Via [GBF] From the Archives: "Is There Sex in Tibetan Monasteries?"

Another dharma talk has been discovered in the GBF Archive! Thank you George Hubbard for resurrecting this. 

"Is There Sex in Tibetan Monasteries?" February 14, 1999

In this eye-opening and provocative yet humorous talk, John Jupt explores the views of celibacy and abstinence in the Tibetan tradition. He also shares insights into the intimacy and channeling of sexual energy that he observed, specifically in the rigorous and austere environment of Tibetan monasteries. Listen as he explains how the norms in these environments are very different than those we experience in the West.

John Jupt is a journalist and a member of the Mahayana “Yellow Hat Tradition” (Tibetan Gelug).
