You did say, when asked about repitition that it was because mantras worked, and I almost wondered at what, but now I see....they work hard at trying to make sense....darn they sure do work hard at saying that it takes no work. seems to me that for both the mantra and it's user, there is an inordinate amount of effort that needs be expended. frankly it's hard to buy what's trying so hard to be sold here. ......bob Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
