      Bravo Llewellyn!! I concur with you. There are a number of members
who have had unfortunate conflicts with the Psychiatric mainstream, and
"Crazy" is a label all too many Kundalites get tossed their way from peers,
co-workers and family.
   If you pray and talk to God, then you are "spiritual".. if God talks
back, then yer crazy.. yadda yadda.. we've all heard it, and enough,
already..
   Please, let the K-list be a safe space for personal expressions, without
attacks and negative labels being tossed by those who are probably no more
qualified to accuse insanity than they are to judge spiritual progress.

      Did you know Lingam means "penis" in Sanskrit.. ?? ;) Pretty funny
last name, eh? Anything can be interpreted negatively if taken out of
context, or into a different culture. My beloved told me a funny story
yesterday..

   Jasper is an Avatar, and so am I. So is Thyer, and so what? Contrary to
what Pica thinks, other religious paradigms use the term Avatar to mean
other manifestations of the Divine, not just those wearing the names of his
Gods.
   Somebody told me yesterday.. "I like you, you are crazy. In a good
way... I like my friends to be a little crazy." I smiled and said
thankyou, me too... negative reactions are optional.. Blessings..
