    How much of your own life have you missed? The simple act of living takes us away from so much of what lies underneath our surface self. Over the course of our lives, the world continuously thickens the shell around our true nature. Traumas from chil...

Terrific stuff, Roger. We are all initiates on the path, as Roy Eugene Davis' Way of the Initiate points out. I wish illumination, self-discovery, and harmony for everyone who truly seeks this. It's a long slow journey but nothing else is as worthy of this effort. My own energy, healing, meditations, and knowledge go out to everyone in this endeavor!
Peace be with you all... Jose, aka Jman
