I had to laugh reading your comment, "my stories seem so much less important than yours and others." So much of the time I feel the same way, that others have done more "important" things, met "important" people, had more incredible experiences, spent more time with Yogiji, traveled more places, seen more things, and write about them so much better than ever I could. About 25 years ago the Siri Singh Sahib gave a series of lectures in Los Angeles about "contrast consciousness"... that consciousness we fall into of comparing ourselves with others and the pain we therefore cause ourselves. Anyway, I really look forward to whatever you decide to share. It's the moments that matter, and all of our lives are filled with countless precious moments. love and light, svk Thanks so much for your thoughts.

You bring old times to life and I really appreciate how you write them in first person expressing how it really felt. [I thought I was the only one intimidated or confused by what the Siri Singh Sahib said (or yelled!)]. It is comforting to see that we have had similar experiences. I truly believe that the sharing of stories is not only worthwhile but it will impact how the Siri Singh Sahib and our history will be remembered. The result of our collective memories will become the recorded history.... therefore I agree it is important to hear everyone's experience. Let's make it REAL! To be perfectly honest, I don't consider myself to be a writer and my stories seem so much less important than yours and others. However, in the spirit of our collective consciousness, I promise to share a story soon of my experience of the early days. Sat Nam, Dr. Krishna K. Placerville, CA Dear Siri Ved-
