Religions? No. Spirituality? Yes. Most of the earth's religions and churches have become, like governments, self perpetuating bureaucracies more interested in competitive power relative to other churches, than in truly enlightening people. Only those religions which encourage each individual to own her own power and commune directly via intuition with the higher planes of existance are worth anything. Any religion which asserts you need one of their intermediaries between you and God is on the path of the dark side of "the force". > OK. All kidding aside.

I can answer your questions though. > Are you still a "woman"? Yes and No. We are all androgynous spirits who incarnate on the material plane in one sex or the other. Which sex we are in one incarnation is not necessarily the same as we were in other incarnations. The ultimate attainment for each human is a perfect balance of yin and yang force within themselves, or androgyny on the energy plane. For any given incarnation, we tend to be unbalanced in one direction or the other, and so have an energy polarity which becomes manifest as sex in the material plane. > Do you still contribute to "net.singles" No. And I don't read it anymore, either. I'm only posting this because a friend sent me mail indicating there was a question about me to reply to. > Are you still into polygamy? I'm not opposed to the concept, but haven't been practicing it lately. The depth and quality of the spiritual union between two people is reduced through multiple relationships. I'm more interested in finding a soul-mate to share many incarnations with, than in the kind of sexual promiscuity often thought of in association with polygamy or singleness. > Do you still think that everything is relative? We create our own realities. We draw to ourselves those people and experiences we need in order to learn our Karmic lessons. The state of the physical world is merely the summation of all those Karmas of all the spirits inhabiting it. Lately the human population of Mother Earth has been ignoring spiritual values and their responsibility to nurture rather than rape Mother Earth, and so things have been going to hell in a bucket. If there is not a sufficiently rapid spread of the New Age of spiritual enlightenment, then we can expect major earth upheavals as Mother Earth acts to correct the situation. > Are you working on anything interesting? Getting more disk space on my Mac eXLisa so I can do some interesting work with Smalltalk-80. In early April I will begin taking classes in psychic reading / healing. I've been working very hard towards the day when I will finally be able to cast off the traumas of past lives, and my childhood in this life, which have kept me afraid of and shut off from my clairvoyance. I look forward to the opening of my third eye, my 6th chakra, and becoming a psychic reader / healer. All three of the psychics who've been working on me have indicated I have great psychic potential, but then everyone has psychic potential, and it's merely a question of developing it. Of course, the first step in becoming a psychic reader / healer is the process of self healing, and that's been my major focus. I've come to understand that I am not a "true" transsexual (they do exist, and do indeed have valid need of "gender congruity surgery"), but am instead dealing with a borderline schizophrenic "role" created as a defense mechanism in childhood against severe trauma. I still have the problem of being androgynous in a world which insists on polarized gender roles, as evidenced by having both energy polarities existant on the energy plane. I haven't figured out what to do but live in the Twilight Zone on the material plane for this incarnation... genitally male, legal sex still female. I'm still in the process of healing my male side from my childhood traumas. Past that I'm focusing on maintaining a good balance of yin / yang on all planes, which is more positive in the direction of self spiritual growth than it would be if I was more focussed on being one gender/sex or the other for the purpose of mating. Umm... this gets pretty complex to explain without a sufficient background in the esoteric sciences, and from previous discussions on the net, I fully realize that most people caught up in the religion of consciousness, known as science, are not open to even considering the values or percepts of the unconscious / intuition / spiritual / esoteric / occult. It's just really hard, anymore, to deal with our Western culture and the propensity to ignore spirit evidenced by so many net.people, who can rant and rave about the fact that they haven't been able to prove the existance of ESP, spirit, or psychic abilities in their scientific laboratories, when I'm hanging around with psychic people all the time. BTW... you take on a whole new concept of "truth" when you're around psychics... there are NO secrets from the psychic adept. It really blew my mind during my first psychic reading to have the reader reach right into my soul in the space of an hour and see things which had previously taken me months of psychotherapy to see in myself. Oh, I'm through with psychotherapy too... my shrink had pointed me in the direction of androgyny and spiritual values, and the places I'm going now are not dealt with by psychotherapy. But I guess I ought to wrap this up, as I'm yet very much a novice in matters spiritual / psychic.
