Dear John Cartron

You write--"Out of my life and experience love is MORE than physical
union.  It is more like becoming ONE with others.  It is a union at all
levels that expands one to a great beauty of '..it's OK to be you'.  A
point of acceptance and allowance.  We teach ONENESS.  From that ONENESS
is the allowance of mistakes (teaching tools) and acceptance.  Auras
merge, expand, and the true ONENESS occurs.
Instead of a 'cold handshake' try a good 'hug' with acceptance and
allowance and begin to 'feel' the warmth of love. 'It is OK to be YOU
for you are ME'.
LOVE is the ISNESS of the IS.  (for me, that is)"  :)	John

The whole Western world is so permissive regarding, hand shaking
(originally designed to show you did not have a weapon); kissing, on one
cheek, both cheeks, and on the lips, for any meeting and parting; now
you introduce the concept of hugging whenever.

The East on the otherhand has always recognised the sanctity of the
persons aura, and touching is nearly totalling taboo, except between
certain relationships, and occassions.  Once ones starts a "fashion" pf
hand shaking, kissing, now hugging, it starts to become insulting to
avoid such contact.  If one could see the aura, and the effect such
close contact can have in transmitting psychological infections,
uncleanliness and diseases; one would return to the Eastern habit of
welcoming with joined palms--the namaste.

The spread of the feeling of love and compassion does not have to be
done by means of physical contact.  The plane of the feelings and the
thought plane are far more productive and powerful.

Sometimes people do not realize how invasive the social need to shake
hands, kiss (now you would add hug) is.  Some people have to learn to
protect themselves, by placing barriers up when faced with the social
need to engage in such activities. When young many have not yet learned
the art to protect themselves, and therefore become the victims of
social custom.  Do you know how abhorant contact may be to some people.
And that has absolutely no relationship with their ability to radiate
feeling of charity, love and kindliness.

REmember that Chelas, are not expected to engage in too many physical
contact, have you wondered why ?  Why the Masters find it intolerable to
move in the world at large; masters though they be, the psychic polution
is so dark and vile, that it is avoided as much as possible.

Please think this over.
