Episode 20 - Robert Ryan & Lama Lhanang Rinpoche

This episode features Jaymee's second interview with legendary tattoo icon and street monk Robert Ryan of Electric Tattoo, and Jaymee's teacher, Vajrayana Buddhist Master Lama Lhanang Rinpoche. Recorded LIVE on location, grand opening weekend of WANTS/NEEDS Community Arts Collective, on the morning after the packed premier of Robert Ryan's art show "DUALITY" in that space. The atmosphere of recording was a rare stormy Sunday morning in downtown Ventura, CA, which surprisingly did hold back attendees from returning the morning after for a truly stunning talk on the subject of "Dharma Art".  The episode opens with excerpts from a special "Ganesha Puja" ceremony Robert Ryan offered that morning prior to the taping of this show, and closes with a deeply moving blessing and powerful healing chant from Lama Lhanang.
