I've been in bellydancing lessons for almost four years, and I love it. However, lately there has been a lot of criticism between the different troupes (such and such doesn't have technique, such and such doesn't create any choreography from scratch, etc.). I've tried to ignore this "war of the dancers", but I wonder what does make a good bellydancer?

He is a little freaked out about it, cause he rarely dreams of stuff
like that. He asked ME what it meant....I don't know. Do you have
any ideas ? It might help......oh, the cobra was like on the ground
and hissing at him, and darting back and forth. Like what a snake
charmer does to them. Well, he grabbed it by the neck and tried to
hold it tight, but it stuck it's head out and bit him. That was the dream.....zzzzzzz

I'm looking for a list of novels that feature horses as the main character (like Black Beauty) and/or about girls and their horses. My niece has recently gone horse-crazy and I am looking for some gift ideas for her birthday. She reads at a 6-7 grade level.

The book 'Jesus, Last King of Kashmir; Life After the Crucifixion' now appears at amazon.com. Here is the place for posts about Jesus' life after the crucifixion, the graves along the Old Silk Road, the Hebrew connections with India. There are articles about science and astronomy, early mariners and archaeology, and the politics and problems of modern conflicts that actually began thousands of years ago. All religions have a place in discussions here because all religions are traced back to common origins. The web site is here: www.jesus-kashmir-tomb.com It has pictures and descriptions about the contents of the book.


Isa Masih?
In this account Jesus says he was known as 'Isa Masih' - this supports the idea that he was known in the east as 'Isa / Issa'. The Quran also refers to Jesus as 'Isa'

Jesus Sighted India?
This document records events that took place towards the end of the 1st Century BC. Jesus is met by King Shalivahana
“Nearby is situated the stone of the grave which, according to the people, is the prophet's who arrived from a far off place during ancient times. Anointed for Kashmir: This spot is famous as the resting place of a messenger: I have read in an ancient book that a prince from a foreign land arrived here and engaged himself in piety and prayers [and] became a messenger of God for the Kashmiri people. In that ancient book his name is mentioned as Yuz Asaf.”






The following is the English translation of the information displayed on the signpost that stands outside the Tomb of Jesus Christ. The information contains the views of Khwaja Azam Deddmari , who compiled his Tarikh-i-Azam in about 1729 A.D

These remarkable footprints were found in the vacinity of the tomb. This is reported in the letter form letter of Maulvi Abdullah to Mirza Ghulam Ahmad. The footprints clearly show that the sculptor was depicting the feet of a man who had been wounded, and he wished to portray this in some manner
Decree of the Grand Mufti - The Seal Of The Justice Of Islam - Mulla Fazil - 1194 A.H.
In this High Court of Justice, in the Department of Learning and Piety of the Kingdom.

Present: Rehman Khan, son of Amir Khan, submits that: the kings, the nobles, the ministers and the multitude come from all directions of the kingdom to pay their homage and offereings in cash and kind at the lofty and the holy shrine of Yuz-Asaph, the Prophet, may God bless him.

Claims: That he is the only and absolute claimant, entitled to receive the offerings and utilize these, and none else has any right whatsoever on these offerings.

Prays: That A writ of injunction be granted to all those who interfere and others be restrained from interfering with his rights.

Verdict Now: this court, after obtaining evidence, concludes as under: It has been established that during the reign of Raja Gopadatta, who got built many temples and got repaired, especially, the Throne of Solomon on the hill of Solomon, Yuz-Asaph came to the valley. Prince by descent, he was pious and saintly and had given up earthly pursuits.

He spent all his time in prayers and meditation. The people of Kashmir, having become idolaters after the great flood of Noah, the God Almighty sent Yuz-Asaph as a Prophet to the people of Kashmir. He proclaimed oneness of God till he passed away. Yuz-Asaph was buried at Khanyar on the banks of the lake, and the shrine is known as Rozabal. In the year 871 A.H. Syed Nasir-ud-Din, a descendant of Imam Musa-Raza, was also buried besides the grave of Yuz-Asaph.

Extracts:

"The king asked the holy man who he was. The other replied: 'I am called a son of God, born of a virgin, minister of the non-believers, relentless in search of the truth."

"..and I was called Isa-Masih.


Important Parallels

- Name was Isa
- Born of a virgin
- A 'son of God',
- A foreigner
- Had 'appeared as the messiah'
- Had fair skin and white garments

Is it better to be hated for who you are than to be loved for someone you aren't?

pros and cons to both...
if you are hated for who you are, then you are lonely and depressed, but are yourself.

if you are loved for who you aren''t then you are living a lie, but everyone loves you.

George Bernard Shaw said: "This is the true joy in life: being used for a purpose recognized by ourself as a mighty one..." Do you agree, or do you define happiness and joy in other ways...

I love reading Anne McCaffrey's books especially the Pern series and I don't really like the Lessa character. It was great that she gave up Ruatha to Jaxom but she is a bit of a ***** to almost everyone. So what do you think? Nice or nasty

Anything that you believe or state can be argued against. Whether or not you accept the argument is up to you.

However, if one is looking for ultimate truth, shouldn't it be something that is so true that one cannot deny that it's true? Or should one deny that there is any truth at all? Or should one take the middle road and say there are "levels" of truth?

Since all of our perceptions vary from one person to the next, and these perceptions are distorted even further throug our own unique interpretations, how can anyone reliably say they know the truth.
