Re: Manifestations only from the east?

Dear David, Please forgive me, sometimes I forget that not everyone on this list has been reading my opinions for years! [How arrogant of me!] You replied: I'm having difficulty understanding how belief that there have been Indigenous (Western) Prophets is in line with the belief that ALL
