(by RMS) ‘Signs of a Rebel Buddha’ is a video essay that deals with unconventional Buddhist teachers and their significance to the development of American or Western Buddhism.
Developed by our friend and fellow Rama student, D. Thompson, the short documentary film uses Rama (Dr. Frederick Lenz) as the essay's example of a 'Rebel' Buddha.
"Signs of a Rebel Buddha" examines the teachings of unconventional spiritual masters and uses the teachings and life of Rama - Dr. Frederick Lenz - as an example. It weaves in images of Rama and Zazen music throughout.

(by Garuda) I was meditating this morning going through the ups and downs of life, and suddenly, looking at Rama's poster, I realized that everyday has been a good day since I became his student. Ever since that day, I have been connected to the network of enlightenment. More importantly, I have been formally accepted as a student of a fully enlightened teacher.
