Interest in Tibet and Tibetan Buddhism has grown among many demographics in the United States and the West, today. The Dalai Lama and his 'Buddhism' has been promoted as bringing more 'peace, harmony, and compassion' to the world. Now the Dalai Lama and his inner circle of western devotees and fans are promoting his MIndfulness as the key to physical, mental and spiritual health. By explaining the true nature of Tibetan Lamaism and its Tantric roots, as well as the cult methods of recruitment and entrapment that the Tibetan Lamas use, the author opens the eyes of westerners to the dangers Tibetan Tantric Buddhism and its influences continue to present to our open, democratic and free societies.
