Thanks, Richard, I really like groups where they discuss spirituality PLUS
everyday life, current events, etc.

Richard, just in case Rick closes FFL given recent events, and if you join
another group, please let me know about that group. I'd like to join too.

Share - There used to be a group called the Bhagavad Gita Lab - don't know
what happened to it. Sometimes I post to a Google Group, which is un-moderated.
Recently I joined a Yahoo Group moderated by Paul Mason and I plan to post some
more of my Sri Vidya musings that you might be interested in reading. So much
to do - so little time.

According to Professor Flood, there were no "Hindus" in the historical
Buddha's time. "The actual term Hindu first occurs as a Persian geographical
term for the people who lived beyond the river Indus." The term Hindu then was
a geographical term and did not refer to a religion.
