Guest guest Posted September 1, 1999 Report Share Posted September 1, 1999 OK, Mr. or Ms. 'Omtatsat', if you have dispatched Tom to oblivion, I am intrigued (by what method did you dispatch him? I hope it was legal!) I also need your assistance. I file many of the mails from this list under a folder with the person's name so I can review them later. I filed " Tom's " under a folder named Tom. Shall I make a new folder and what shall I call it?? :-) Karen omtatsat wrote: > <omtatsat > > Hari Om! > > Karen asks: > > Tom (omtatsat is you, Tom, right??) > ____ > > Comment: > > I have dispatched Tom to oblivion, he was an overbearing rascal, > who was becoming difficult to live with. > > ____ > > > > > Karen said: > > tom, might we add the time that the Master grabbed the sword in the Kali temple and was going to kill himself because he could not see Mother. > > ____ > > > Comment: > > Yes, that priceless anecdote is from the Gospel of Sri Ramakrishna. > > ____ > > karen's comment: > > one of the things i like best about the Master and Holy > Mother > is their human-ness. in, my eyes, it does not take away from their > greatness. same for Swami V. i don't want a plastic saint; i want someone who can bleed like me! > > ____ > > > Comment: HERE HERE ! > > ____ > > Karen said: > > Theresa of Avila, who in ecstasy experienced an angel plunging a sword into her. > > ____ > > Comment: > > Her life shows her to have been, besides, a woman of strong > practicality and good sense, full of natural shrewdness, > and with unusual powers of organization. {note: This sounds like a very good description of Mother Teresa too !!) > > " You deceived me in saying she was a woman, " writes one of her > confessors; " she is a bearded man.
