Steve, thanks for your words, it's true that God's drama unfolds with surprises, some of'em pleasant, others less pleasant, but the lesson is that we must play the part which has been assigned to us, this is what the great Masters thought to us and I firmly believe to apply in all lives.

On my side, I must confess that I'm probably not playing my part very well, I should do my best to try and meditate notwithstanding the unfavorable conditions, but I have my limits and must juggle many things together, my duty toward a son with karmically predetermined mental sickness, my work duties, my duties to my physical being which must be kept healthy (above all a minimum of sleep is necessary) and so on.

I thank God & Gurus that my son's conditions have improved since his 'liberation'. In the first few months, he often behaved like a young man possessed by a demon. I understand why in medieval times mental conditions were thought to be the expression of demonic possession.

A careful choice of psychopharmacological drugs and environmental positive stimuli seem to have been beneficial, I hope things keep going like this and that he finds daily accommodation in a good local facility, then I'm going to have some time at my disposal.

At the beginning it was hard to abandon most previous habits, I mainly miss my daily meditation practice, which I hope to resume ASAP.
