We do not know exactly what plant, of all the plants available to them,
that Adam and Eve ate of, while in the Biblical Garden of Eden
(Genesis 3:6).
It has been suggested that it was a fruit that Eve partook of, perhaps
an apple, which certainly shows a certain amount of Euoro-centrism.
My questions to emptybill are: what does Cyril of Alexandria mean by the sin of
one? Also, if all sin is illness, does that mean that the orthodox fathers
believe that all illness is indicative of sin?

But Judy, earlier in the same paragraph with the Cyril quote Rev Hughes states:
the Eastern Fathers assigned full responsibility
for the sin in the Garden to Adam and Eve alone.
So how is it a sin of one, I still wonder.

One can see how others might see this or that without necessarily going
along with it oneself, especially when it comes to what Christ realized and

empty, are you saying Pennington was a TM teacher? That was my understanding,
but I didn't know whether it was correct, so I didn't mention it in my
comments. How about Keating?

On a different topic, I'd be interested to know more about what you said
regarding Augustine and real Christianity, if you have the time and
inclination. Where did Augustine go wrong?
Thanks, this is great. For the moment, one question: The expulsion from the
Garden and from the Tree of Life was an act of love and not vengeance so that
humanity would not 'become immortal in sin.' What does immortal in sin mean,
and how would that happen?

Minor correction. I wrote:
Photocopies of the chapter entitled TM and
Centering Prayer from Pennington's 1977 book Daily We Touch Him were
routinely passed around among TMers.
The chapter title was TM and Christian Prayer, but it was about Centering
Prayer specifically.
