Are you sure you don't mean /Weathermen/? A fantasy of operating with
guns outside the law. You're what, 35 years old now going on 10?
/20. We may be vegan or vegetarian because we can sense a certain
energy of the food we eat, like if an animal was slaughtered inhumanely.
We don’t want to consume negative energy./

I'm surprised they didn't kick you out of the academy for playing such
a film.
I guess it depends who's running the show. In the old days of the
academy I probably would have been burned at the stake for bringing
any sort of non-Marshy movie into the sacred grounds. But the couple
who were running things when I was there were pretty cool, they knew
that not everyone is suited to a life of devotion and studying the
vedas, so they let us be ourselves.
Not that some other visitors didn't object, some of the sponsors were
outraged that money they had donated for a TV for watching "knowledge"
tapes was being used for entertainment, the horror. It's like they
gave money to live the spiritual life by proxy, we were intended by
them to be purusha when we weren't anything of the sort.
You should have explained that you *were* using the TV to watch
"knowledge tapes," and then played them the following segment:
"The path of the righteous man is beset on all sides by the inequities
of the selfish and the tyranny of evil men. Blessed is he who, in the
name of charity and good will, shepherds the weak through the valley
of the darkness, for he is truly his brother's keeper and the finder
of lost children. And I will strike down upon thee with great
vengeance and furious anger those who attempt to poison and destroy My
brothers. And you will know I am the Lord when I lay My vengeance upon
you."
It may not be from the Gita, but it *is* from the Bible. Ezekiel
25:17, to be exact.
Ah, what a classic, they don't write 'em like that any more.
I consider Pulp Fiction to be the Casablanca of our age, it's the
movie that saved cinema.
