Ah nevermind the Voudoun thing.
Every time I contemplate it I get bad omens. It's I guess just a very dualistic
religion and not of the highest self liberation calibre. I admit I find it
fascinating but I Ching tells me, "darkening of the light, do not rely on those
with bad intentions." And for the moving lines, "Stagnation, decline, don't make
such allies." I was hoping that they also had some secret doctrine of truth
within, but I cannot find it anywhere. Does anyone know anything about
Voodoo?

Thanks bro. I just feel that
Voudoun will be more appliable here in New Orleans than some other Mahayogas.
Often one is a failure in their pursuits through not applying the proper sort
of baksheesh to the lowly chain of command. It would be a shame if a
yogi cracked his head open on a rock by not paying attention to the rock in
the street. I think everything can be held within the trekcho.

One thing t3rinity (if that is her real name) doesn't seem to
get is that a Nath is all these things. I always liked the traditional
statement that the Naths 'practiced Hinduism by day and Buddhism by night'.
Love it.
Voudoun priest? You're a Nath if I ever heard one.

medicine Man named Bearheart. Later I got TM, six advanced techniques,
sidhis, and yet later I took Vajrayana vows and got many abishekas. No one
teaching contradicted another because there has never been a place for
contradictions in my heart.
There
are many people especially amongst certain very open minded liberal groups
of certain gurus like Chogyal Namkhai Norbu who are able to reconcile that
they contain many lineages of teachings in their mindstreams without the
need to reconcile those teachings into a strident categorization. This
neither makes them deluded, spiritually materialistic, or crazy, or even
bad practiitioners. Rather it does show a true unitarian and egalitarian
yearing and desire to find truely universal truth as opposed to some small
niche of truths.
I
applaud him for his efforts and see much much very esoteric prowess and
lack of self delusion in his teachings. I pray that his detractors might
someday come to universal awakening and appreciation for truth in all its
myriad forms as well.
Personally
I am contemplating becoming a Voudoun
priest.
