2007-12-22 [zoloftzantac]: *pets the pretty kitty*
If I had TV I would watch that program, Mata Amritanandamay
2007-12-22 [~*Astarte*~]: Yes, we did! And I'm going back soon for a silent retreat - yay! ^_^
2007-12-24 [RabidSphinx]: *purrs* happy christmas/holi
2007-12-27 [~*Astarte*~]: I watched "In God's Name" and was amazed. Tears filled my eyes many times. At the end, one of the producers of the documentary stated that in the end, he came to this one (of many) conclusion: "Religion is seeking the truth."
And just for the record, of the twelve Spiritual Leaders interviewed - not one, and I mean not one, said that anywhere in their religious teachings does it state that to kill in the name of God is okay. My brain is still healing, and there were so many quotes I wanted to remember ... my hope is the documentary will come out on DVD, and I will get to watch it again.
2008-05-02 [zoloftzantac]: That was a cool program, I was happy to see Ammachi as one of the people they talked to. :D
2008-05-10 [~*Astarte*~]: Yes, it was very cool. I, too, was happy to see Amma as one of the people they interviewed. And to think you and I and our families get to see her soon - like in 4 weeks - how blessed are we!? Extremely blessed, I'd say! :D
2008-06-26 [zoloftzantac]: *is back from spending two weeks volunteering at Amma's Ashram in San Ramon*
2008-08-13 [zoloftzantac]: *wakes up and looks around*

2008-09-12 [zoloftzantac]: wow, that was already a month ago, time can really fly when you are having fun. Summer has been great for me. I've been falling in love with the gal of my dreams and been having tons of fun making jams, wines, meads, candies & sorbets out of my favorite summer harvests (black berries, peaches, plums, pears, straw berries, apples, elderberries and grapes) Yum!
2008-09-12 [Lyon Armonial the healer]: ....lucky bastard....

2012-02-22 [zoloftzantac]: I just got a message about this wiki page getting removed.
Does that mean it will be removed from be listed on the index page, or deleted? or what?
Nothing interesting has happened here in 5 years so go ahead and remove the listing in index if you like. If it is going to be deleted tho, please let me know ahead of time so I can re-read all the comments and remove my links to it.
