And some more practice in public speaking. I meant to show the attitude, which was quite common some years ago in Soviet ISKCON. When you were starting ask questions, for which your asuthority couldn't give a clear answer, he accused you in been a jnani, since a thinking and a mental speculation were considered indifferent. And "yo men" were considered as directly following the path of bhakti. >I certainly agree, but again, I also don't see how a potentially official >policy by some temple administration along these lines can be simply taken as >being out of line.

Please, could you specify and extend more what's your point. I'm not sure that I understand you right. >Not something you'd want to put on your Cheerios.
