Why would the Masters of the right had path support those of the left and  
their movement?
Do we not know about Bon? Do we not know about the Red Hats  who mix with the 
practices of Bon? Is it right to have sex, drink alcohol etc.  and practice 
tantra like many of the Nyingmas do?

> The Rime Movements importance until today:
> "In summary, the  Rime movement is a timely and unique movement with great 
consequences, owing  much to the two 19th century luminaries Khyentse Wangpo 
and Jamgon Kongtrul.  Without their incredible efforts compiling and 
transmitting teachings, it is  likely that much Buddhist literature would have been 
lost. It helped break the  custom of single lineage teachings which isolated some 
schools from others,  and it established a platform from which people could 
view all schools with  equal respect. In fact Lord Buddha himself forbade his 
students to criticize  teachers and teachings from other traditions and 
cultures. This is what Rime  is all about."
