Thanks for the good word, Christian. I clicked on your address to see what you were about and was amazed. Not that i’m a follower of South Park, but have heard of it. Don’t actually watch TV. But if i ever wanted to watch episodes, this would be the place to go. Very cool!

Nice video with David Lynch, I also watched a few of the Maharishi videos, 1970 was a long time ago but what an energetic Maharishi.
