“Transmigration of Souls” put on hold for the summer.

Now, just what do you actually know about religion? What you’ve been taught by someone else? I want to know What You know? Feel deep down? within you? Have you personally had any situation that overtly changed your life, made you look at the world differently? Treat your fellow man in another fashion more humanely?
Religion has a lot to answer for. Most wars in the past and almost all going on today. Blame it on Biblical Abraham, father of not just the Jews, Christianity but also the Muslims. Now, long about 1300 AD some powerful tribes sealed off the mountains of Tibet from their many frequent conquerors’ and held spiritual meetings. They examined the world’s thoughts and beliefs and then created their own esoteric brand. Today we know it as Tibetan Buddhism. A hell of a lot of “thinking went on” in hilltop sanctuaries and retreats in Tibet that debated and argued the significance of life, matters of the soul and the importance of death. In those mountain sanctuaries reformation was created concerning Buddha’s pre Christ teachings.
Miraculously the different schools of thought emerged, six different hats, the Dali Llama being the oldest. Original new tenets and doctrines were elucidated; totally unusual ways of viewing the world and previous philosophies—all thoughts impossible to argue against logically. The new thoughts were just too well reasoned. One being the “transmigration of souls” endless rebirths until a person passes unto a state of non being. All of this is reflected in many books, but one of the best summaries of this new thought process has been known as the Tibetan Book of the Dead that well explains why we should never kill any living animal, insect or reptile; not even wives. All living beings are deemed “in transit”, momentarily being here for a life while they better themselves and are re-birthed into a newer and progressive being; leaving well behind previous lives. (If you don’t remember being a rat in your past existences, maybe—you weren’t!) An endless cycle of betterment effectively teaches us to do without. Gradually leaving behind our desires. Killing destroys the current life being and sends them back to “go” to start again.
Yup, “no see ums,” flies and all other night time pests that obviously had led some pretty nasty previous lives have been granted a summer moratorium. This does not come from me but of a higher authority; the Gran Pontiff, Wizard, Buffalo Indalo (He of protected and established statue against the heaven’s falling).
Leave the hommies in Mojacar free or suffer the consequences:
Spray or splatter: Beware! Now, this doesn’t mean carefree over-kill. Remember, you could be spraying someone’s uncle or swatting one of your own genetically extended family. But, some relief is needed.
Oh, and you can make up for your heartless and ruthless attacks by doing some sincere and powerful meditating (praying) for them (that you’ve destroyed), yourself and all about you for a better world.
