I think there is a lot to be said for policies that address the transition and relocation and stability of these migrants.I doubt that "kowtowing to every demand" is listed as a policy. It makes sense that the refugees did not migrate with a desire to radicalize. The WSJ article al

It's been a long time since I've had any *flashy* experiences. Transcending seems easy, usually starting with some pure awareness but then *blackout*. I don't think there is much advantage to meditating long periods of time. Once you dip in, that's all that's needed. Of course that's what the ad
