About Hazlitt Christened as Hazlitt Eiler Krog and born in the same week that His Holiness the Dalai Lama fled Tibet, Hazlitt has experienced a profound connection with the Dzogchen Lineage of Tibetan Buddhism without renouncing his Christian roots. He has cultivated a deep respect for all spiritual practitioners who relentlessly seek the truth no matter what system of faith or science they use as an vehicle for their exploration. He recognizes the importance of Interfaith dialog as a way to deepen our understandings of both the similarities and differences of various inquiries into what is truth.
