dear Ravi, thank you for insights.  Now I have to tease you and mention that Maharishi used to say that it's good to get the perspectives of several jyotishis.  I've never heard some of the info you give me so thanks again.  Gratitude too for your perspective on Raunchy.  Will take to heart.  Sh

Amma may or may not be functioning from ego, but the organization built around her and her true-believing zombie followers certainly are. I would question the value of a guru who appears to function primarily as a locus of egoic attachment. --- In FairfieldLife@yahoogroups.com, "mjackson74" wr
