Talk:Kelsang Lodrö
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
lodrö was removed from the center by Geshe Kelsang, however there is no reliable source on this besides the fact that he was removed also from the website. --Kt66 (talk) 02:16, 7 December 2007 (UTC)
"The Venerable monk Kelsang Lodro and the Venerable nun Kelsang Thogme have now decided to live together openly as lovers, rather than hide their affair as they have done for the past several years" Nov 13, 2007 This is one of a whole set of 'sex scandals' in the NKT
- Gen Thubten Gyatso was sexually abusing young nuns under his care for years.
- Samden was similarly engaged in sexual activities for a long time before action was taken.
- Kelsang Lodro was allowed to continue unhindered whilst those members that question his relationship with Thogme were asked to leave.
Email to Steve Wass:
Steven Wass,
I have received your email message. You have destroyed the NKTs reputation and the power of all NKT Resident Teachers. Through your actions so many ordained Teachers have disrobed following your view which is opposite to Buddhist view – you tried to spread a sexual lineage which you yourself created. Even in society a Teacher cannot have sex with students. After you left many people confessed to me that you had had sex with them. You had sex with so many students and through your deceptive actions one nun tried to commit suicide because of your sexual behaviour towards her.
Because the NKTs reputation and power of the Resident Teachers has been destroyed by your activities now the future development of the NKT will be difficult both materially and spiritually. However, I myself and all my students are working hard to recover the damage you made. We will never allow your sexual lineage to spread in this world.
I have no connection with you.
Geshe Kelsang Gyatso
