He was so struck by her book *The Experience of No-Self* that he wrote to her, she replied, and it evolved. Last I heard she was living a couple hours drive from San Jose, CA. My friend is an ironic twist on spiritual evolution. He went to the Krishnamurti school in Brockwood, Eng. growing up, and started out very into Buddhism. He is now a Roman Catholic! But then so is Bernadette Roberts, and she is essentially a Buddhist in RC clothing. And there are other Roman Catholics such as Thomas Merton that are essentially Buddhist. What this friend brought me to realize is that there are many many flavors of Roman Catholics. But then, the word " catholic " means universal, doesn't it?

What a gal we here discuss. She is without label actually. ......bob Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
