Any of ya'll have a source of a half cup to a cup of naturally occurring sindhura powder (from a river)?

Yup, I get it from a thermal spring from the centre of the island.

Here is the source:

That is so Vajrayogini!

What part of the world is this island in? Greece?

Yes, the site is on the island of Lesbos (sooooo... Vajrayogini) Greece http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lesbos

It's about a 40-50km drive from where I live.

Yeah, me too, you could probably make a business of it Greg. :smile:

"The direct, hard to understand, subtle field of knowing, the Great Path, is non-conceptual (akalpana), and entirely beyond the grasp of intellectual thought. Divorced from verbal ideation, it is difficult to point out and as difficult to enquire into. It cannot be communicated through words and [therefore] is not within the scope of the neophyte (adikarmika). Nevertheless the path is to be approached through studying scriptures (sutra) of the World-Teacher and following the personal instructions (upadesa) of one's Guru-ji."

It's true, Ngodrup, I'm not 100% sure who you are yet... so I hesitate to give a saucy reply to this.

But, I'm enjoying solving the riddle... and your on-line personality.

Yudron,

You're welcome to share a little joke. I'm not always serious.
We can recognize LTR's disciples by their slightly naughty sense of humor.
Anyway we are acquainted, just a little bit. Doesn't matter.
