We all mourn the loss of the six American and one

Israeli Astronauts in the Columbia tragedy.

 

As many know (I did not before yesterday), one of the

American Astronauts was of Indian descent, a brilliant

Indian woman scientist Kalpana Chawala, who lost her

life along with her colleagues. This was her second

flight into space.

 

The following link takes to a story of the loss being

felt in India, where much pride was taken in Kalpana

Chawala's accomplishments.

Namaste Harsha et al,

 

It is a great tragedy for the families.( due to attachment)

 

However perhaps some good will come out of it.

Perhaps nations will realise they are not omnipotent.

It will be a greater tragedy if thousands of body bags come home

from a war.( They have already been manufactured by Cheney's co

Chinaco in Hong Kong).

 

It is an interesting point that the Hopi told the USA, and the UN

that man would only be allowed to put a house in space. So in light

of this tragedy of seven deaths, although tens of thousands of

children die unsung everyweek, perhaps the influence of the Goddess

will be more felt.

 

The intersting coincidences, in light of current circumstances, are

that it is the same week the challenger blew up in 1986, the first

Israeli astronaut was part of the attack on Iraq's nuclear power

generator.

 

Some see coincidence--------perhaps we should penetrate it for

meaning, for as we know nobody has really died.

 

The Goddess is everybody and everything, so if She want to kill as a

wake-up call there is no death.

 

Recently on a visit to Australia, I was doing a job that She

obviously didn't want me to do. So on the first day of driving a new

car a bird flew into it and was killed. I was most disturbed by this.

I did the business anyway and it failed.

 

Some months later I visited an Ammachi Bhajan, not thinking of

anything in particular, when as I stilled my mind the sound came...I

WAS THE BIRD!!!!!!!!that was it.

 

Man proposes---------God disposes...........ONS...Tony.
