Thing is (for me) to watch when something really gets OFF the wall collectively, as one says…and how to cope with such a situation re real-life issues, when surfing on virtual waves simultaneously.

The real kids I´m listening to just now in the courtyard are fine and okay; the kids I was watching in a shopping area nearby, an hour ago, were playing, throwing stones.

The amazing thing was how very quickly one of the small boys took the role of a leader, coaching the three others to throw the stones in one direction and getting the others waiting for his signal to start. They all had no other ideas what to do with stones, like working on house building or whatsoever building. (I found out that, by asking them).

The little girls, meanwhile, playing becoming ´mothers´ with their Barbie puppets and Baby Barbie Puppets…

Spring Time-Sun, Blue-blue Sky – and – otherwise, ´Wild , Wild Country´ spotifying reviews,
everywhere possible, one has just to watch it.

In my eyes, Swamishanti, the comparison with ´street kids´ re that issue, street kids in India (or elsewhere) falls very, very short! I´ve been looking into a shocked face of a more than grown-up with my eyes.

When a community has rules and laws, follow them.
If you break them, and get caught, take the punishment. If you are enforcing the law, do so with clarity, swiftness, humanity and justice.

The city of Rajneeshpuram was a precariously delicate new city that was fighting in the face of a lot of antagonistic legal forces surrounding them. They had an anti-dope policy, like all cities in American, and the world. Rightly so, I would say.

For your sannyasin friend to be flagrantly thumbing his nose at this rule, particularly under the circumstances, by making a drug deal from a public city phone, was just plain stupid. I would say he was lucky the Ranch authorities dealt with him so leniently.
