Guest guest Posted August 3, 2001 Report Share Posted August 3, 2001 Om Gurave Namah ---------------- Dear David, Namaste. What I meant in my e-mail is that the presence of Budha is assumed by the presence of Guru. I haven't talked about absence of Mercury. Knowledge of truth in itself can be a glorious end, with or without outward/verbal expression. And, I feel Truth has a way of getting across ultimately, even without communication. Eg: Ramana Maharshi, who rarely spoke. But all those who went to him, felt his compelling spiritual power and guidance. I am also waiting for Gurudeva's comments on this. I must apologise to the list members, because my e-mail appeared twice. Wrong message from postmaster, actually.
