Bottom Line: I believe Ravi believes that his awakening will bestow upon him the credibiliy to assume the role of a guru to many seekers. And I think he feels that because he has great saturation with American culture, with all it's nuances that he is uniquely fashioned for this role. This is my report.

Well, you can imagine that it was pretty lopsided conversation with one party doing most of the talking, and the other party doing most of the listeneing. My main advice to him was that if he calls himself a simple brahman, to live the life of a simple brahman. --- In FairfieldLife@yahoogroups.com, shukra69 shukr...@... wrote: you didnt think it best to advise him to seek the help of a mental health professional? --- In FairfieldLife@yahoogroups.com, lurkernomore20002000 steve.sundur@ wrote: --- In FairfieldLife@yahoogroups.com, lurkernomore20002000 steve.sundur@ wrote: I had a conversation with Ravi this evening.
