Re: Who Sez O'Sensei Was Wise!

To quote Terry Dobson, who lived and practised with O'Sensei until his (O'Sensei's) death in 1969:

"What he (O'Sensei) did during [those] days was pray. That's what he did. He didn't go to the movies, or out on a date, or entertain a bunch of people. He just talked to God. His truth was that he believed what he was doing was the way to reconcile the world, to bring about peace."

That seems pretty damn wise to me, Philip; and following his path, Christine, has lead me to a life worth living.
