Shocked the hell outa me. I understand. Maybe on Purursha there were all these old timers who have gone through a lot of stuff themselves. I found them to be a lot more tolerant and not-cultlike than some of the new teachers in the centers. For example P just came from the Phillipines, and most of them had been out to see healers. It was nothing special to them. > You sound as if you had a fortunate experience. I really had. I do not want to miss my Purusha time. It did so much for me. Neither the time in Rhineweiler at the press, were I spent 7 yrs. I am a slow learner, but I really feel blessed my whole life. I met so many good friends who helped me experiencial wise, many dedicated people in the movement, some very independent very independet thinking. I had one friend who had turned into a pundit, he was virtually at a pundit school in India. He started to do everyday in the morning doing several Rudra Abisheks. He would sometimes invite us for participating in some yagyas. > My only > point is that not everyone did.
