Often I am asked about this ridicules name that I use; Ozay Rinpoche, for instance what lineage do I you come from? lineage, huh? Today a young monk from Bhutan messaged me, and asked me that very same question, well you know I did not want to upset him so I ignored him the first time he asked, I asked him was it true that monks get beaten with sticks and things like that, then he asked me again; "what lineage do you come from Rinpoche"? I ignored the question and asked him, do you meditate? He said "no, I am learning certain princibles" I said that is good.
Then he asked me; who is your Lama, I could not avoid his questioning for much longer, how could I tell him I am a fraud, I thought to myself, then I thought, no tell him the truth, I said to him I am a fraud and the lama who teaches me is not of this world.
Do you know what he said then? He said I bow to you from here, you are my master.
Now this young monk was born in 1988 that means he was only 21 years old, of course i told him there is no one who is greater than you I cannot be your master, and there is no one who is less than you, for you cannot be their master either, we are all the same non is great and non is less, but still this young monk would not have it, I am his Master.
I did not tell him that I had become enlightened in a prison cell, yet in such a short amount of time he saw what few can see who have been practising for life times,
Did he know something that so many have been trying to understand, this is not about being anyones master, but it is about master of the self, he was told who is the true master and who is not, yet still he paid homage to this.
These people who are living in high places which are not close to modern civilisation can be more pure in their hearts if helped along by certain conditions, ie monastery, which goes a very long way towards their evolvement, too many of the people I speak do do not really wish to find enlightenment they are unaware of this but most people merely take one old mask away and replace it with another new mask, the ego is very smart, indeed they become what we call in the West: Smart Arses, but of the unconscious kind, however some are more concious than others, they get angry fast. I call this slippery ego.
Some may say this young monk was naive, if that is so, I say this: this kind of naivety will take him to know his true nature, and his own master who is not of this world, just as my lineage and lama are not of this world, nothing that I know comes from any teaching, all that I know does "NOT" come from this world.
I hope this helps a little on your journeys.

That's funny, telling him it was all a fraud, but he reacted very graciously.
