The Three
Christs of Ypsilanti

40 years ago, Dr. Milton Rokeach, a psychiatrist at Ypsilanti State
Hospital, placed 3 mental patients who had delusions of being Jesus Christ
together in a therapy group. Today, the three major religious systems are
like the Three Christs of Ypsilanti. And, God has placed them all in a
therapy group...

Answering the Emerge-n’-See Call
by Swami Beyondananda.
Just because we’ve
had a little wake up call is no cause
for alarm. And if we’re gonna be woken
up, we may as well wake up laughing.
Because laughter is a tried-and-tested
emerge n’ see treatment that helps us
emerge from the darkness and see the
light. |
Karma Talk
by Swami
Beyondananda.
Well, here it is, the Month of Love.
One out of twelve is pretty good, but
I think we can do better. My advice to

Is Your Dogma Friendly?
by Swami
Beyondananda.
Any dogma-trainer will tell you that
you cannot train a dogma to be loving
and obedient by beating it. To win a
dogma's heart, offer it a treat. Say,
"Good dogma. Sit. Roll over ... heal." |
Sometimes It's Just
Not Funny!
by Swami Beyondananda.
I've often
maintained that life is a comedy of
situations, and we're on a fool's
journey . But there are those times
that our foolishness is no longer
laughable, and causes a world of pain.
In other words, sometimes the human
comedy just ain't funny. |
Wake Up Laughing
What kind of fool
am I? What kind of fool do you think I
am? Why do fools fall in love? Yes, it
seems we human beings have been asking
foolish questions about the nature of
existence since long before the Top
40. So let me clear it up for you... |
Karma
Problems?

time starting your karma in the
morning? Difficulty shifting? Are you
concerned that your karma might be a
lemon? Let the Swami have a look under
your hood. |

millions of FUNdamentalists
(accent on "fun") declared himself a
non-candidate in the 2000

It's Great to
Be 50!
by Dave Barry.
I
choose to be an optimist, like
Christopher Columbus, who had a dream that he could sail across the Atlantic Ocean. People
said he was crazy, but Columbus boldly set out and discovered the
New World, and then he went back to Europe, where he
died in obscurity at age 55, which is only five years
older than I am right now! OH GOD! MY LIFE IS
OVER!!!

Healing A Hump
by Luke Chan
A man went to
see a healer about his back. The man would have been six feet tall, but being a
hunchback, he now stood only about four feet above the ground. The infirmity
should have been healed at an earlier age, but the man couldn't afford medical
treatment until now. The healer was glad to see his deformed patient coming in
with a sack of gold.....Continue

Would I Die For You?
by Raymond Schulze
In that quiet eternity afterwards, you and I as one our souls soared the heavens, a light brighter than

caress, until your innocent question brought me back in such
distress: "Would I Die For You?"....Continue
