Words of wisdom. Or just healthy reason, however one wants to call. Not being Indian, I do not follow the mythology of Indians, and it'S symbols and rites. But what is expressed by it and lies behind the level of symbols and rites, I always felt instinctive sympathy for. I also feel that it does not matter if thse things and things that I do follow are really completely in correspondence. It's more important that no matter where we are, we all look at the same direction to see the sun rising, or setting.
P.S. Very interesting myspace profile of yours. Looks like a very interesting life to me!
