RE: ?????????An Interview with David Godman - realization.org

[Guest guest]

That is so funny El and I love it! :-). Of course, I love David Godman's

work too. I have only one of his books of edited conversations of Sri Ramana

called, "Be As you Are" and it is quite excellent and comprehensive.

 

All of us have a destiny of sorts El. Bullshitting ourselves is all part if

it, don't you think? :-). Why should that be held against David Godman or

anyone else! :-). Thanks for giving an alternative interpretation! I will

pass this on to as well.

 

Love

Harsha

?????????Re: An Interview with David Godman -

Did it ever occur to him to get a normal paying job

to cover food, clothing, and shelter?

 

Or did he think he was too good for that?

Or too fucked up for that?

 

Render to Caesar what is caesars,

and to god what is gods.

 

Keep it clean.

Don't bullshit yourself.
