Guest guest Posted May 2, 2006 Report Share Posted May 2, 2006 Hello I’m from 2500 years ago. Back then, in our village, if someone was unique the head, we just figured they were “unique in the head”. That’s where it stopped. Then, if we saw a gal from another village, who was similar, we’d stick ‘em in the same barnyard for a few hours, to see if they liked each other. Chances are, they ‘d end up happily married. End of story. We didn’t know fancy words from the future. We didn’t need them. I might find a gal who’s unique in the head someday. Her and I will walk bye the fancy counseling offices which have all the fancy new words. And we’ll live happily ever after. All the old couples, who have been together forever, have probably never heard of “codependency”, and if you said it to them, they’d probably say: Oh yeah, that’s us, we’re very dependent on each other, always have been, that’s why our marriage works so well. I miss my village. :-( Reeshart Mach Aeoidh aka Das Goravani das (AT) goravani (DOT) com Secure online ordering of Goravani Jyotish 2.5 and Jyotish Studio 3 (JS3) For Hindu Astrology Software and Lessons (Jyotish) For Original Celtic Art Paintings http://www.goravani.com/art.html or Please use email if at all possible – I usually cannot answer the phone Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted May 2, 2006 Report Share Posted May 2, 2006 das, i'll keep my eyes peeled for a kind, brilliant soul in a thin 30-year-old body. actually one came through here last week. and i thought of you then. she also loves to research history, like you do and she wants to make handmade books, like bound with leather and wood and such. she loves dante and shakespeare and ... i didn't know how old you were at that time.... i couldn't remember, so i didn't know if you were too old for her? but she is a lovely person, plain physically, but you know how 'love' makes people blossom. i liked her a lot and found her extremely charming, endearing. she lives out of town right now but will be moving here to go to school. i think she's 32. ??? hey! happy birthday! love, patricia On May 2, 2006, at 9:19 AM, Das Goravani wrote: > I’m from 2500 years ago.

Guest guest Posted May 2, 2006 Report Share Posted May 2, 2006 well, juliana, good catch. good reality check. heck! i do a lot of past lives therapy. i've heard stories about the abuse that happened in the past. it wasn't all roses. just the same old, same old, planet. some fun, some drudge, some horror. all opportunities for releasing fear and reclaiming love. ah. that makes me breathe easy. i love how it works. love, patricia On May 2, 2006, at 10:54 AM, Juliana Swanson wrote: > Forgive my cynicism, which I imagine looks pretty ugly amidst your > lovely utopian reverie.

Guest guest Posted May 2, 2006 Report Share Posted May 2, 2006 Another thing I'm sick of: White people or Americans who speak of ancient times and civilizations and always focus on the death portions, and then speak of Indian terms as a way of fixing everything. Old hawaii is bad India is good Old hawaii they kill you Sat Sanga inside blah blah is a good thing Hey, what about how many have been chopped in India. Gosh, I was THERE ONCE when they BEAT A BOY TO DEATH for steeling a pair of crappy shoes at a temple. What about that? You know there's old Hawaiin and old Celtic words for finding peace inside, but we don't know those do we? We only know how to say "India is all good" CAPITAL B FRIGGIN S India is not all good. And these words, so many words from so many Gurus, and I know tons of people who gave their lives to this stuff and they are no different from Joe Bloe in the line at the store next to them. My metaphor stands. Consciousness is a cultural phenom. This idea of "Codependency" being "bad" will be eventually replaced by the next idea. It's just ideas. They change over time. In GREAT FRIGGIN INDIA did you know that a woman on her period is considered, according to their HOLY SCRIPTURES to be EQUAL TO A MURDERER on the first day of her period, and on the second she's..... I am just blown away by how people quote sanskrit on and on as if just doing so makes their text somehow holy. The amount of direct punishment doled out by civilians in India against innocent people is horrible. I've directly been there....okay? Argh.

Guest guest Posted May 2, 2006 Report Share Posted May 2, 2006 > what about widows on funeral pyres? > that seems a bit ? to me. ??? Ahh, another opportunity to level the playing field with the white man. The Norse and Celts were known for doing this as well. You see it in "The Thirteenth Warrior", where a Norse Wife of a King goes onto the burning boat of the King, to her death, to go with him to the afterlife. It was a white custom, as well as hindu, as the two have similar indo european roots. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
