Lines: 18 Approved: prabhu@amelia.nas.nasa.gov What this fellow DA KALKI (Heart-Master Da Love Ananda) says is trivial. So what if God is before us always? So what if we are already enlightened? If a murderer realizes that God is before him, has his enlightenment made a whit of difference? It's actions that count and this post said nothing about action. What path does this fellow prescribe and on what basis? There's an old Ouspensky/Gurdjieff story about how they were able to do certain things to enlighten a sheep. "So what did they do with the enlightened sheep," someone asked. "They ate it," the master replied. Len Moskowitz
