Cynthia, if you get thirsty and someone gives you a glass of water that quenches your thirst, is it important to you that the person who gave you that water knows your name? To me, whether that person knows your name or not has nothing to do with the quenching of your thirst. As a matter of fact, I've never spoken to him but at this weekend's program, there were microphones all over the hall that anyone could have used to speak to him during the expressions sessions. I didn't line up but I know several folks that DID speak to him this weekend. One of my friends, Chuck, not only told Maharaji his name but also told him a joke. I thought it was a lame joke, and I think so did M and most of the crowd, but all the same, there was laughter and interaction that was very sweet with a lot of people there. I'll even re-tell the joke for you: What pet is the noisiest? Answer: a trum-pet! What do you think? Lame, huh? I have no problem whether M knows my name or not. (I think he does, though.) One of my favorite groups is the Rolling Stones. I've enjoyed them many times over the years in concert and I have no problem that Mick and Keith don't know my name. I still enjoy their music. Do all of the people that have helped you in your life know your name and if not, does that mean that they don't care about you? Get real!
