Friends, I need to sign off of HF for awhile, for various reasons... I've gotten involved in another house building project...the house we built in '03-'04 and moved into on 9-1-04 is way too big for a middle-aged couple, so we've purchased a small cottage and are going to begin remodeling it soon...and, having been an architect in my "previous existence", I'm compelled to obsess about every last detail. Don't have time to spend posting here or the other boards on my customary online rounds. In a spiritual sense, the Hinduism forum here has been a great trip. Through dialogue with all of you over nearly three years I've thoroughly questioned and reevaluated where I was coming from and have made the full circle...ISKCON is indeed my ashram, Srila Prabhupada my guru. I'm analytical, prefer to keep my feelings guarded, and have kind of run out of objective-type theological topics to discuss. But I also feel like I have made friends here and will be comfortable popping up again when the time is right. Another thing...I've been hanging out on the Christianity forum a lot and it is really negative over there...I've been letting guys like Campbell into my head and found myself becoming involved in their delusions...not conducive to a peaceful or positive outlook, to say the least. Anyway, that's it, more or less. I sincerely hope that I've made some contribution that has helped someone else see the path more clearly...Hare Krishna and Blessings to all. Scott...spook13
