And this is written by the guy who has written hundreds of lines lately whining about people (primarily me) criticizing his chosen spiritual path? :-) :-) :-) Look, dude...just for the record, you really CAN'T get under my skin and push my buttons by ragging on Rama. Anything you could possibly say I've dealt with years ago. And even if I hadn't, IT'S NOT MY JOB to defend the dude. He's DAID, ferchrssakes. Even if he weren't, IT'S *STILL* NOT MY JOB to defend him. You are entitled to your opinion, however nasty and mean- spirited it may be. :-) This would seem to be the difference between you and me. When I intellectually challenge bhakti (not even your teacher), you interpret that as a personal attack against you, get majorly uptight, and overreact to the max. When you decide to trash the teacher I studied with, I can laugh about it and *not* react. On the whole, I'd rather be me than you. ------------------------ Yahoo!
