I don't buy this. I don't actually see that much difference between the descriptions of Brahmaloka in various scriptures and what I see around me every day. Same guys and gals, acting out the same old soap opera plots of this god sneakin' into this other god's honeypot's...uh...sacred places. War here, war there. Pettiness here, pettiness there. Where's the difference? :-) > The reason our souls are not in a better place is because > we're all in a problematic state of mind (some more so > than others, obviously). We're here to become enlightened. You're certain of this? :-) > Then it's on to bigger and better things....supposedly. > Certainly, some enlightened souls may hang around for a > while, just like some adults still hang around high > school (teachers, janitors, staff, coaches, etc...). Dude! Whatever Edg may have said about me in the past, I SO do not hang out near high schools. :-) Just havin' fun. Your comment made me think of a fun plot idea. Sorta like Steven King's "Carrie," but instead of having been reborn as a telekinetic crazy person, Carrie's been reborn as a Buddha. There is a good horror movie in this. :-) Good raps, lately, dude. I've been enjoying them...
