Crazy Wisdom is the 2011 feature documentary exploring the life, teachings, and "crazy wisdom" of Chogyam Trungpa, Rinpoche, a pivotal figure in bringing Tibetan Buddhism to the West. Called a genius, rascal, and social visionary; 'one of the greatest spiritual teachers of the 20th century,' and 'the bad boy of Buddhism,' Trungpa defied categorisation.

Raised and trained in the rigorous Tibetan monastic tradition, Trungpa came to the West and shattered preconceived notions about how an enlightened teacher should behave - he openly smoked, drank, and had intimate relations with students - yet his teachings are recognized as authentic, vast, and influential.

With unprecedented access and exclusive archival material, Crazy Wisdom looks at the man and the myths about him, and attempts to set the record straight through commentary by esteemed teachers including Pema Chodron, Ram Dass, Allen Ginsberg, Sakyong Mipham Rinpoche and Robert Thurman.

Chogyam Trungpa Rinpoche's books sell in the millions and Shambhala meditation centres thrive in over 50 countries around the world.

This movie captures an important era and is not to be missed!
