  1. Bum begging on the street makes upwards of 30K a year...


  2. Swami V was Ramakrishna's conservative sidekick. His "Tonto-like" role in things was almost comic relief, if one chooses to see it that way! He was into the mono-Vishnuesque "enduring" techniques in life, as different from Gadhadar's (Ramakrishna) Shivite tendencies. Other folks such as myself, find proper Vishnaivism to be balanced by also the creative and destructive energies of Brahma and Shiva, respectively, and respectfully. It is interesting to note that both people hung out in a Kali temple, where RK was the head pujari. RK maintained that it did not matter where a person was, if they saw God in all things as the Bhagavad Gita recommends. Meat being sacrificeable or eaten there in generally vegetarian India culture, dried testicles (sweetmeats) enabled RK to chew and "dance before the dieties" like he had before Totapouri (the Naked Monk) had talked him into self-castration. V chewed just to be supportive, and perhaps for the opium preservative on the sweetmeats. RK preached that Love For God covered it all. V murmured around the issue, with all manner of "respectful posturing with personal resolve" covering everything. Me"? I just bask in the glow of it all. Regards, Larry.

  3. Hmmm I don't quite understand, but for a guess... The pain is greater when you try to make someone else suffer. Hope I helped.

  5. From the Urantia Papers;

    P.51 - §10 6. Is idealism--the approaching concept of the divine--desirable? Then must man struggle in an environment of relative goodness and beauty, surroundings stimulative of the irrepressible reach for better things.

    As man approaches latter age he often looks back with fond thoughts of how it would pleasant to do this same life struggle over again.

    Your short life on Earth, on this sphere of mortal infancy, is only a single link, the very first in the long chain that is to stretch across universes and through the eternal ages. It is not so much what you learn in this first life; it is the experience of living this life that is important. Even the work of this world, paramount though it is, is not nearly so important as the way in which you do this work.

    It is through life's experience that our concepts of ideality are endowed with reality.
