Sounds sort of like our sweat lodge. Be careful what you pray for. You will get it, but know that spirits do not think like we do. Horatio (remarking on the voice of the spirit visiting Hamlet): O day and night, but this is wondrous strange! Hamlet: And therefore as a stranger give it welcome. There are more things in heaven and earth, Horatio, Than are dreamt of in your philosophy.

You think Tzu understands the meaning of the swine/perls quote? I have my doubts given his already VERY unique interpretation of the golden rule... He clearly doesn't see himself regurgitating the 'pearls', so I would say no.

That guy had no training, no elders, he was charging money, his inipi was covered in plastic so it and the 50 people could not breath. It can pay to know who you are praying with. There are a lot of new age jake asses out there.

don't know who to attribute this to but:

"In heaven, the cooks are Italian"
--for the life of me, I can't remember who said it, but it stuck, and it's a nugget, to me.

"In heaven, the cooks are Italian" --for the life of me, I can't remember who said it, but it stuck, and it's a nugget, to me. I know that line as part of a longer joke. Alas it stops being a nugget when quoted in full but I thought you might appreciate it anyway: Heaven is where... The police are British The cooks are Italian The lovers are French The mechanics are German And it's all organized by the Swiss Hell is where... The cooks are British The mechanics are French The lovers are Swiss The police are German And it's all organized by the Italians

I vaguely remembered that it was part of a bigger quote, but couldn't remember that, either.

Ecclesiastes 3:1-10 (Translated from the Latin Vulgate)
All things have a time, and in their own time they pass, under heaven. A time for being born, and a time for dying; a time for planting, and a time for uprooting what was planted; a time for slaying, and a time for healing; a time for destroying, and a time for building; a time for weeping, and a time for laughing; a time for mourning, and a time for dancing; a time for scattering stones, and a time for collecting; a time for embracing, and a time for becoming distant; a time for gaining, and a time for losing; a time for guarding, and a time for throwing away; a time for rending, and a time for sewing; a time for silence, and a time for speaking; a time of love and a time of hatred; a time of war, and a time of peace.
