Some people pay would pay for that. It is a niche market.
Yeah, interesting the currency in the end now is changing to those

speak with the devatas, or is that, favor now towards hearing voices

speaking in tongues is going to be rated? The Spiritualist circus is

"Spiritualist" is really a good word. There is no indication (from
any of the reports I've read) that these *are* experiences of devatas
but merely meditative moods. This stuff has happened for decades, now
it's suddenly chic and good? This would be a sign for me that the
movement is over as far as evolution goes if this is what the founder
is promoting and expecting. It also is a clue to his own level of
realization and that it is really not that great.
Ah, if only slapping a title on yourself could make it so!
But you still *can* fool some of the people, some of the time.
