Hi Meryl,
I'm 64. Was a elementary teacher for 29 years. Was raised a Roman Catholic
but started losing my faith in junior high school. Gave my faith one last
chance in college by taking a couple of theology courses. Lost it for good
then. After college started my searching for something I could believe in.
Psychology became a substitute for religion, but I was attracted to Eastern
philosophy. Enjoyed Alan Watts. Wrote a book about my searching and published
it myself - The Search For Being. Retired early from teaching to take care of
a very handicapped brother. Became a gang stalking target -
http://www.nostasi.com. Been spending the last seven years trying to expose
Government Gang Stalking. Have embraced the ideas of David Bohm whose ideas
were influenced by Krishnamurti. I agree with him thought is the cause of our
problems. That idea made me gravitate again toward zen and this list.
