The gods got pissed that all these Western seekers were befouling the

sacred river and decided to pull the plug, environmentally speaking.

 

Now if we can only get enough PrayerPals together to entreat the gods

en masse, then maybe we can get them to reverse their decision.

 

All we need is 100,000 PrayerPals to come together and pray during

the Brahma Mahurta and everything will be OK.

 

However, if only 99,999 show up, then the gods will be pissed at US

for being in a " low " consciousness, as evidenced by our inability to

rouse the praying troops.

 

If this is " religion " than maybe somebody should pull the plug on

that, and leave Mother Ganges alone.

 

" Pray for us sinners, now and at the hour of our death, Amen. "
