Bhakti Ananda Goswami,
Thank you for your most informative and kind reply. I find much 
agreement in
what issues you have put forward and explain in regard to both yourself 
and the
Work in service of others you perform. My hopes for a full success in 
these are
extended.

I had read some small amount on the topic some years ago but only in 
passing
as an interest in the subject of Hermophroditism in the context of 
ancient traditions
in comparative studies, and also due to Madam Blavatskys condition in term
of her condition. 
I assign no negative context whatever and mean none, I extend 
apology in behalf 
your sensitivities for any lack of consideration of such. As to the 
website , I myself
thought it gave a respectable iteration of your accomplishments and 
credentials and
was most positive and complimentary of you.

And I think at least a good part of your assessment has a valid view 
in regard to her
characteristics of personality, however I am not yet inclined to make 
firm a view as 
regards Serapis. But find much to agree with nonetheless. Your informed 
comments
as to the physiological and genetic effects are quite interesting. She 
definitely was
Dominant as the literal Atma-buddhi of the assembly of souls she gathered 
about her
in terms of organizations and groups of people.

The tragic history of birth under the intersex variables is directly 
indiced to mankind's creep towards understanding, reason, too often it is 
lacking and forces
rationalization that seem proper at the time but as knowledge is 
acquired new
paradigms are forced and finally change occurs, all too often taking 
all too much
time.

By the way many years ago as a Taxi driver in L.A. I took a fare call 
and it was Prabhupada himself, but dressed in a business suit. The funny 
thing was I really 
had no awareness of who he was but as he sat in the front passenger 
seat next to
me I was aware of a large amount of energy that he emanated and that I 
felt. On
his forehead when I looked at him I saw the white traditional mark in 
the center but
in reality it was not physically there. My Cab number was #1022. the 
call had me
take him to 122 W 7th St. It was a unique experience. He had a woman 
and a child 
with him.
