That is amazing, and somewhat incomprehensible, though I shall watch for similar the next time I find myself in such a situation. Perhaps I should have mentioned that I always experience huge purifications and lightness whenever listening to vedic rituals, such as the installation of the Rajas awhile back. In fact I was able to capture the chanting as mp3 files and burn them on CDs. However, rather than seeking the vedic rituals out, I am a pretty curious fellow (in both senses of the phrase I suppose...) in that I find myself led to all sorts of interesting situations, including vedic chanting when appropriate. ------------------------ Yahoo!
