Guest guest Posted April 7, 2006 Report Share Posted April 7, 2006 OM NAMAH SIVAYA and a qoute of one of my favorite spiritual figures, Bob Marley; "The road to life is rocky and you may stumble too, so while you point your finger someone else is judging you." -from Judge Not. i am not quite sure that Bob Marley is/was on the level Jesus and Amma, but i tossed Him in anyway 'cause..... who am i to judge?
