Karma Kagyu School Of Buddhism Rating Options

Hi,

I am new to this forum, but have read and explored a few of Samael's teachings. He is a very wise man indeed, and have great respect for all of his teachings, especially those considering white tantra. I know that there is truth in many relgions, and that they are simply different approaches leading to the same goal. I read a topic and a post on Tibetan Buddhism, and a fairly active member, James Crow, said that he studies both in order to get a better understanding of Gnostic and Buddhist teachings.

Where I live, I don't believe there is a Gnostic center, but there is a Tibetan Buddhist center and more specifically, they practice the Karma Kagyu lineage. From what I have read and learned, it seems to me to be authentic. The center itself doesn't teach a lot on tantric practices (simply because there is no one qualified enough to teach that), and what I've been able to find so far isn't terribly conclusive on what category of tantra they practice (black, grey, or white).

A few sites to lead you in the right direction with what they're lineage is all about are: www.diamondway.org, www.diamondway-teachings.org, and www.karmapa.org.

I am curious to find out whether or not they teach/practice authentic white tantra, as I feel that is by far one of the most important aspects of a religion. If anyone knows more about this particular lineage or was able to find some information, I would appreciate it. Also, if no one can find any information regarding this particular lineage, if anyone knows more information regarding the kagyu branch, or simply of Tibetan Buddhism, I'd appreciate that as well.

Thanks!
