FW: you are not alone in these feelings. it is a wonderful thing...besides all the wacky projects, money laundering, hanky panky, whatever.....that the 'diamond' in all this is indeed beyond all compare. its what i remember every time i puja to the holy tradition. As to life after mmy, that is what the 'inner guru' is all about. Self illumination. its what he wants for us, what he has always wanted for us. and to that, i hold. it will be very strange and, yes , lonely in a way. but we will see when the time comes. he is passing the torch to Tony Nader in his raja suit....so what to do, eh? all blessings, >off_world_beings <no_reply@> > > wrote: > > > > > > OMG !
