You do the Hokey-Pokey,
And you turn your soul around.
That's what it's all about!

Praise be to Krishna!
This just really needed repeating. :notworthy

Hello to all!

I chose to respond to you as you have obeyed and won:

MARA,in sanskrit means death!......


A cruel man who was hunting just for fun,wounded his preys just to see the suffering... Narada Muni,a saint told him to chant MARA,death as he wouldn't chant God's Names.But by chanting mara repeatedly it becomes RAMA,the Name of an incarnation of God in Ramayana.And by doing so he became so purified that he dared not put his feet on the ground in order to avoid killing ants.
So you chanted the Name of Rama,and your life will change....


HARE KRISHNA-HARE RAMA.

Except that no, it doesn't. Maybe I'm saying it wrong, but no matter how I pronounce it I cannot make this work.

So I guess I'm fucked.

That doesn't sound pure to me, that sounds like hell...

I'm glad I didn't say it then.

Default Punctuation?
Has anyone noticed that people who have crank religious beliefs tend to put no spaces around their punctuation,like this?It just occured to me.

They don't have time for the space bar when they have the holy word of Meltzer the Goat-Head God to spread!
