Basically the council or whatever wouldn't back him over what he thought was essential and important. Being that was the case, he stepped down from it as the only viable solution.

You cannot be a buddhist and go "Well I'll just ignore this then"
take what's useful discard th rest
people are so set on association
want to be a part of someting
@Kragt That 'bad at introspection' part is what worries the fuck out of me. Buddhist principles are excellent for average introspection, but it's like any other philosophy: putty in the hands of a solipsist.
You develop introspection by meditating.
Hence the whole development of it.

it's as if empathy doesn't esxist
And I agree, but handing a histrionic meditation principles without a roadmap is asking for trouble.
Nah, he wanted to make things less of a workload by expanding committees with people he trusts. Apparently it got vetoed by the use of some proxy or other legalese.
He thinks that was unethical, as the people who vetoed didn't even (according to him) know what was going on.
