Hey, you guys... I have been having fun over at a message board that is a real slice of Hare Krishna life... my name is rama there, and these freaks are almost unbelievable. They are not even from Siddha, either, and when I mentioned Ricky Gervais, some lady said "Gervis, Gerbil, it's all the same sick s**t." I imagine she has a healthy case of Hare Krishna Homophobia. feel fre

Zelig, you said: "Once the spiritual master is accepted, it is a process of laying the intellect aside and hearing submissively the words he is saying. As the surrender process takes place, the aspirant is able to experience (in accordance to his degree of surrender) the ecstasy of transcendental life." TOTALLY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Yeah, my guess is that the concept of the main characters is totally from Chris Butler, and that it is 100% run-by* him and approved by him. *as in "run it by him" They have a very escapist notion of "innocence" and "children" that they project onto their idea of "baby krishna" and also their own kids.
