I had been to Bodhgaya to receive the Kalachakra Tantra in December 1985 from the Dalai Lama along with 500,000 other Tibetan Buddhist from literally all over the world, with most from Asia in native historical dress. It was a really amazing experience that I received along with my wife and 3 older children who were then 10 to 14 years of age.
Then I traveled with my family and Geshe Lobsang Gyatso originally from Kham, Tibet who had come to Lhasa as a 6 year old who was discovered in Kham by them and taken to be trained because he was exceptional. He then traveled with the Dalai Lama when they were being shot at by planes with machine guns all the way on foot and horseback to India over the Himalayas to refuge in Dharmshala which was given by the Indian Government for his Tibetan Government in Exile to this day since 1959.
Geshela traveled by train and bus with us through Varanasi (once called Benares) where the Burning Ghat is to Agra where the Taj Mahal is and it was still open so we were able to take a tour through the inside where the Yoni and the Lingam are through all the amazingly ornate carvings of marble which likely would cost billions of dollars to recreate now in this time period.
Finally, we went to New Delhi and from New Delhi we took trains and buses to Dharmshala which is in the foothills of the Himalayas in Himachal Pradesh (which means Snow Laden province) of India.
Geshela traveled this whole way with us and we also met Lama Ayang who had given me and a friend of mine Phowa Initiation in Santa Cruz. Both Lama Ayang and a monk called Thubten kept telling us we needed to go to Rewalsar (Tsopema in Tibetan) so we finally hopped on a bus and took the 5 hours it takes to get there from Dharmshala, India which is at 6000 feet in elevation on a ridge of foot hills looking up at 20,000 feet peaks nearby. Rewalsar is likely at 3000 feet in elevation and is a Padmasambhava Holy place for his manifestation of Dorje Drollo which is a Crazy Wisdom Manifestation of Padmasambhava. When we reach Rewalsar (Tsopema) I felt the amazing energy and they did an all night Dorje Drollo Puja the first night we were there. I felt like I had been transported 1000 years ago by the all night puja ringing in my ears from outside by monks and the drumming.
The next morning I woke up and felt very different. Eventually, we decided to go up to where Padmasambhava had melted his foot prints into the rock about 1/2 to 1 mile up above the little city of Rewalsar. When we got there a monk let me into the building built around the footprints so pilgrims don't just chip them out of rocks and take them home with them. I laughed when I saw the footprints because they were exactly the same size as my Vasques Cascade Hiking boots (I wore size 14 mens then so Padmasambhava must have been very tall like me because I'm 6 foot 5 inches tall to have feet this size in proportion to the rest of me. When I walked outside the whole sky had turned purple and violet lightning began to come out of the violet purple clouds.
I knew Saint Germain was answering the question I had asked that morning which was "Are you and Padmasambhava the same soul?" This was an obvious "YES!" in the sky and through the lightning.
Lama Wangdor whose Gonpo and retreat was guarding the footprints of Padmasambhava melted into the rock invited my family to tea. When a Lama does this he is recognizing his past life connections to you and blessing your lives by the way.
Eventually, he came to Mt. Shasta when I lived there between 1990 and 1992 and gave about 100 of us Dzogchen which is one of the two most powerful Tibetan Buddhist Practices there is. I was amazed when he showed up at a friends house in Mt. Shasta and did this for all of us out of the blue.
But, Saint Germain showed me his soul is Padmasambhava. This is my theory about this. When Merlin was a young man he went from England and Scotland to Afghanistan and India and Tibet. During this time he was known as the Mahasiddha Padmasambhava (Lotus born Mahasiddha)
Mahasiddha means king magic user but maybe a better way to understand this is that Jesus would have been considered to be a Mahasiddha too by Tibetans. In other words a Mahasiddha can fly, heal, raise people from the dead, and multiply the loaves, walk on water and all this kind of stuff. In fact, Jesus likely learned to do this stuff while becoming a Mahasiddha in India and Tibet and in the Himalayas when he was between 18 and 30 sometime.
So, when Saint Germain was incarnated as Merlin he also went to Afghanistan and India and studied at Nalanda University (I visited the ruins in India) which was a Buddhist university and place of infinite knowledge at that time until it was destroyed by the Moghul Empire in India. So, Merlin Studied there to become the Mahasiddha Padmasambhava before this time and took the dharma toTibet to King Trisong Detsun and his wife? Yeshe Soghyal of Tibet.
This appears to be what actually happened.
By God's Grace
The road to this realization began when I read that Padmasambhava had a "Pink" complexion like people from England and northern Europe. So, this started me to realize that Padmasambhava was actually a young Merlin way before he got King Arthur and the Round Table going on in England.
So, before he did this he took the Buddhist Dharma to Tibet and mixed it with the Bon religion to create what is now Tibetan Buddhism. The Muslims the Moghuls tried to extinguish Buddhism in India by destroying Nalanda University but by then it had traveled to Tibet and China and throughout Thailand and Burma and elsewhere. So Buddhism continued unabated in several different forms outside of India even though Guatama Buddha was prince of a kingdom that was near the border of where Nepal and India are today called Lumbini. So, though Buddhism Started in Bodhgaya with Buddha's realization and moved towards Varanasi(then called Banares) eventually it traveled all across Asia in many different forms. And then especially in the 1960s and 1970s and after Tibetan Buddhism came to the U.S., Canada and Europe and all around the world after the Dalai Lama had to leave Tibet so the Chinese wouldn't kill or imprison him in 1959. (Even though they shot as his party from Fighter planes with machine guns and many of the Dalai Lamas party were shot and wounded or died along the way.
So, this too, is a very amazing true life story. And Geshe Lobsang Gyatso accompanied the Dalai Lama from Lhasa to India on this last journey out of Tibet for them all.
