Do you "get" what Transgressive sacrality is all about? Once you 
realize what he's talking about, you'll get it right away.

It's a good topic for TMO people to hear, being so hyper-sheltered and 
cultic.

I've written a good number of articles on several of his lists--and 
despite a really strong academic editorial policy--he has published all 
of them. So I feel I understand him already somewhat. His writings 
strike a real resonance in me, as do those of Elizabeth.

Re: KS. It seems to me his connection there is largely in reference to 
some research he did on Abhinavagupta's writings on theatre. Yes, 
plays, theatre. This is not too surprising if you are familiar with 
Advaita Vedanta, since classic works on this school of non-dualism also 
have sections on the 'world as theatre".
