Guest guest Posted January 22, 2008 Report Share Posted January 22, 2008 Namaste Eric, thanks for this post. I feel much the same way. I am also thinking about Swami's response to my question: How can I get greater protection? His response, right to the heart of the matter was: " the more you give the more you get. " I pray I can give more to Her, that we all can give Her all of our gross nature.
