I would also like some verification as to the source of such a story without going into interpretations of the Dharma first. I know that Khenpo made a CD of the Tara mantras which was Top of The Pops in Taiwan for some time, which annoyed the Chinese. So where do these stories come from in the first place?

The khenpo deserves compassion like anyone else but, puritanical bias or not, this was an issue important enough to the Buddha to specifically address in his early teachings. If we're going to rewrite the dharma, please let's call it something other than Buddhism. tsultrim, oh please.

I think we should at least try to entertain the idea that a high lama, who is not a monk, and is very respected in many circles, might partake in activities which could be beyond our understanding. There are yogic ways to really profoundly help someone through sexual energies. Until we understand these things, we should not judge. if it was consentual sex, and if he helped her therebye - who are we to judge? Personally, i think there might be some vows more important than the marriage vow. There are yogic ways to really profoundly help someone through sexual energies.

It is really vey surprise to know that adult khenpos are also involve in sex scandals. But there is one english maxim go like this: "Even Homer sometimes nods." So Men are not saints, how can they be free from faults? It happened in Taiwan two years ago, so the article also on the Taiwanese news paper.
