Hi, everybody. I'm so hyped abouit this I've got to tell everybody. The newspaper article
found on the web address listed below was in the entertainment and arts section
of last Sunday's Maine Sunday Telegram, the largest newspaper and the largest city in the sttate of Maine. I had no idea this was coming. I don't even know the freelance writer who wroe it. But I think he's a great guy.

	"Through the door of meditation, the imprisoned Soul-Bird of Omnipresence was released. It spread its wings of joy and flew over infinite space, casting cool peace-shadows on unhappiness-scorched beings. Then the Bird of Heaven remembered its little cage of past habits, and folding its wings, lodged itself again behind the bars or earthliness......" Paramahansa Yogananda"

	The business of the poet is not to find new emotions, but to use the ordinary ones and, in working them up into poetry, to express feelings which are not in actual emotions at all. T.S. Eliot
