Well that is what I meant too and expressed it in my text that the original idea of VAD is constant elevation. But I also mentioned that the term VAD is also often abused for many other things as we can see in the HK case and these trends should be exposed. I feel sad over the resistance to deal with that in a differantiated manner and I give up. I am not good in dealing with fanaticism, admittedly. I had too much of it in all these years and I reached my limits. Please forgive my short comings in patience and watching empty debates. I made up my mind niot to waste more time on all of this and rather take care of my own priorities. It was worth a try but I also have to admit that it failed. All the best for you and Prabhupada s blessings in all of your undertakings. It has been a nice dream. Good bye everyone Please do not send me more texts. I am withdrwing from all conferences and will not be on com for at least four weeks or more. Your previous servant Nikhilananda Dasa Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
