>>>Thanks for clarifying your views on corporations. I get to the point sometimes where I hear so much screaming about them that I start to imagine hordes of angry people holding torches surrounding offices buildings like the scene out of Frankenstein!<<<
lol...that is a funny image! thanks for sharing it... >>>I agree that things need to be reviewed and reformed as needed. The big question in my mind with campaign reform is whether it could result in only people with millions of dollars running for elected positions.<<< yes, that would have to be addressed...my simple solution would be to allow spending limits...personally i hope that would get rid of the tv smear campaigns...my new rule of thumb is not to vote for anyone who has those kind of ads...hope i find a canidate i can support..lol... >>>I think Yogananda is so cool and have attended services at the temple in Hollywood. You talk about a peaceful and serene group of people! It was very nice.<<< haven't seen the hollywood temple or the shrine in pacific palisades, but i have been to the grounds at encinitas ages ago, which i remember as beautiful...i have read some passages recently from one of yogananda's books, thus the discussion...yes, meditation does bring peace & serenity...that is the biggest part of what he taught...
