		<description><![CDATA[I don`t think Rammed Ass knew what he was on about.

When  you`ve got a load of acid in your system weird shit happens all the time,`specially up in the hills!
His latest book, &#039;Still Blagging It Now&#039; is due for publication, I hear.

Just another Yankee hustler doing the Hindu shuffle and using an old blanket boy as his credit card so he didn`t have to do a proper job.
Nice one!
Respect!]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Ram Dass - not enlightend.
Sham Dass - enlightened.

Bhagwan Rajneesh- enlightend.
Rajneesh von Maxico - Doubtful enlightend.

Shantam - too far away from enlightenment. 
Lokesh - his wife&#039;s opinion matters about his enlightenment.]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Oddly enough, when he was young Ram Dass did believe in miracles as applied to health, and itemised a lot of &#039;stories&#039; in a book called &#039;Miracle of Love&#039;, about his guru, Neem Karoli Baba. 

I must admit the whole idea of miraculous healing very unappealing.  Most illnesses originate at the deepest level in some body-mind thing which can only be overcome by the person themselves and radical changes to how they are in the world, not in the laziness induced by so-called miraculous healers.]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[As far as I remember, Shantam Prem, no animals stuffed, more ´a show´ with big toys; Avirbhava had been shopping, which she loved very much.

When I remember the vids rightly, which I saw here at the TAO centre, I remember especially the big dragon fly above the heads of the Zen-in-Za listeners, laughing and enjoying.
Me, here in Germany at that time, I found myself in a mood like a clown, watching the vids with one laughing and one crying eye, and I don´t know why.

On another day of these ´series´, Avirbhava and Anando having been hiding inside a big Unicorn, to join the evening meeting with the Master as a surprise happening, but in a way had not been accurately synchronised with...something. And how lovingly He commented on that...

And these days (evenings) remembering are now as if coming from another ´world´, just precious moments, long, long gone and having entered the stream of so many others of This.

If you hadn&#039;t have mentioned it, I wouldn´t have remembered.

So thank you for this.

Madhu]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Perfectly correct, Bodhiheeren!
Bodhiheeren is one who speaks the truth!
He is not just some guy who is irritated by SN and tries to pull some spiritual one-upmanship by reminding readers of a spiritual truth that he has read about in books and of which he has absolutely Zero experience!
Not at all!

I remember many moons ago outside the disco in Amsterdam when this hero of transcendence and superconsciousness was involved in a scuffle outside a bar in the red light area. He was set upon by some drunken sailors and in the ensuing fracas, he was kicked in the balls...and I remember clearly his calm words: 
&quot;The body has been kicked in the balls, I have not been kicked in the balls&quot;, as he slid like a lotus into the mud of the Heerengracht!
And it is said that the sailors became enlightened at that very moment!

Bodhiheren is no fantasist parroting words of others in a pathetically futile attempt at holier-than-thouness!
No!
He talks the talk and walks the walk - although on that particular night the walk was a little gingerly!

Yahoo!
Hari Om!]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Quite right, Heeren. I quite agree. I like Ram Dass, but he is a long shot from being enlightened. 

As a matter of curiosity, are you also gay? Not that I have anything whatsover against people being gay. Just curious, that&#039;s all.]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Well, it&#039;s one thing to wisely repeat the words of a sage (also using them to demean one&#039;s utterly ignorant peers), quite another to speak directly from one&#039;s own experience - isn&#039;t it, Heeren?]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Well as Ram Dass (Richard Alpert) repeatedly has said after his crippling stroke: &quot;The body had a stroke I did not have a stroke&quot;. 

And I guess this insight is the essence of &#039;from medication to meditation&#039;. But that is ofc not a view one can expect to find at SN!]]></description>
