Guest guest Posted March 16, 1999 Report Share Posted March 16, 1999 Hi Kim My assistant Susan is preparing a course on chakras - it will not be the same as taught by Yogi Bhajan, but will cover all the basics, and is sure to promote some further discussion on here too. You may not have realised it, but you have sent the entire digest edition to the list along with your post. I would ask everyone to beware of excessive quoting when writing to the list. The list is becoming busier, and we have to keep our bandwidth down as much as possible. Namaste Gordon Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
