Theos-Talk Archives (March 2009 Message tt00400)

Christian, 
I recently watched a most amazing performance by a man on Hilversum Best Channel online. I was so refreshed by the Mans sonorous narrative voiced singing, walking, talking style, interspaced with humor and amazing repretiore of facial expressions and emotions. I didn't get his name but he is very tall, looks some like Danish. He had an ensemble with two female violin players, a male saxophonist/Clairenetist, a Piano player and a most wonderful amazing women that played Guitar, she truely amazed me with her ability nd Guitar style. This Male singer walked about for about 30 minutes singing non-stop with no helps or cues, then he sat down at a small table and continued for the rest of the hour until program finished. We don't have this style of narrative singing story telling here in the USA at all. Since that time I have seen two other men perform in this style on the same channel but neither are equel to the first. I watched it using the website below which has many TV Stations from all over the world:

We have in every hotel room ( Alliances) Light on the path from Mable Collins and for he people very noisy we have VOICE of SILENCE from HPB. 
That will be more than enough for new theosophists.

I read many books on spiritual traditions and religions. I have Master's degree in management plus engineering qualification and I have many different skill where my talent was proven. After doing this I can say that Bible is among the best books. And I prefer to be in the company of Christians rather than any other group. So this fact shows that Christianity has inherent great qualities. Christianity has not spread just by some cheap trick. I think it is great and because of it's merit it has become what we see now.

They decided to place a Bible at the reception desk in each hotel they frequented so patrons could borrow it. The Bible also served as a silent witness in these hotels after the Gideons had checked out. Today, the Gideons place more than 45,000,000 bibles annually in prisons, hospitals, military bases and, of course, hotel rooms.
