Of course it did. Everything transforms everything. It has certainly transformed me and my culture - traditions and customs. So I can say with certainty that it was confirmed by the test of experience 🙏🙏🙏

@@DupesZakkas Well - yes, it did transform Tibet, that was going too far. But Tibet was still a feudal society with the super rich and very poor, half of all children died of infections, most people couldn't read, corruption was rife in the government, sexual abuse in the monasteries etc. I guess what I mean is Alan Wallace makes it sound like Tibet was some sort of Shangri-La because of Buddhism. It wouldn't be as much of a problem if he didn't constantly attack Western culture and especially science as 'materialistic' in seemingly every video and even go after neuroscience as if neuroscience isn't about to change everything about everything with Buddhism as well. It goes both ways. My own teacher said that my OCD is way too strong for meditation to be of much use against and he recommends that I go through with a groundbreaking procedure that has been developed by a hospital near me to target a variety of psychiatric conditions with sophisticated neuroscience tools. The same technology is being investigated for drastically accelerating meditation progress but Alan Wallace is in denial about that stuff.
