Guest guest Posted August 8, 2002 Report Share Posted August 8, 2002 The only thing that bothers me about the dancing is that it is done with such abandon - which I'm sure is a real high - and with little caution. I often remove myself from the area, if I can, because I have the desire to not see someone get creamed. I have often seen people dancing a couple of feet away from sleeping kids - eeks!! I have to keep reminding myself that Mother will keep them safe - but then there is the story about running in front of a charging elephant and expecting the guru to save you. I have seen the self appointed "behavior police" chastising, and in most instances they are ignored. Basically it is a matter of simple courtesy - mainly towards Mother, as I see it. Jai Jai Ma Prasadini I've never seen anyone ask the dancers to stop - I think everyone is too tired to notice. The dancers must be on automatic pilot.
