Guest guest Posted April 19, 2006 Report Share Posted April 19, 2006 Sorry- Spijit me maneer, heb ik feel fout gedaan. I almost forgot even rudimentary dutch. Ik komt uit Wassenaar en nu woon ik in Malaysia(tijdelike). En nog een fout Matrikar's are not reflection - they are vibrations of same devi.(this is my understanding) My reference tells me that Mantras takes one to intitutive level where as Yantra is where devi sits and it is used as a road map. Finally, Tanta is a practical application as to what to do, to achieve so and so result. I am going through your site. By the way, why camel farm in a cold climate. Any special reason. Do they survive in that weather. Finally, why do you address yourself as Ralph Natraj not Bakker. I thought you are half-indian. raji. >>Hello Ralph, > > > > >Ik kan spreak Nederlandse taal maar mine schrijf taal is nog niet >duidelijk. >Nederlandse grammatica is mogelijk en andere reden mine dochter naar >International school geweest.
