Arambol
Part II

I just have to get this off my chest.
Last night we met a homeopathic healer, self named Krishna. He is from Germany and in his 60s. Chaitra really loves Krishna and fully believes in him. She said that Krishna has really helped to heal her - and when you speak with Chaitra you tend to believe every word she says (in an oracle like manner).

So Krishna told me and Sian that our Chakras weren't open. So apparently he opened our chakras. He did a number of other things that were uncannily scarily true (and maybe some that i was skeptical about). We then ate dinner of him.

It's all sounding really good, right? Yeh, I thought so - until Krishna then casually dropped the following phrase:

"Abraham was the incarnation of Evil - the most evil man in the world. Worse
that Hitler"

Well talk about the elephant in the room. Why i hear you all asking? Because Abraham introduced circumcision - yessir Abraham is the root of all evil because he started a tradition of circumcision.
How does this follow you ask? (and let me just say that he knew i was Jewish and Krishna, Chaitra and Flavio all believe this)
Now, you must - when reading this explanation - imagine a German or Italian accent.

When the child is a born, it is in natural state. Why is disturb him in his natural state? When they cut him, they change him. Then the baby boys, they is feeling trauma. trauma from birth, and then they mothers do not save them. then the boys they grow up, they become aggressive, sexual monsters (monsters is my word). I know because i see this. I see this Israeli, this Muslim.

Beyond disbelief at this point. However, you must wait to here how they came to this conclusion. They all learned as disciples of this Buddhist person here in India (Pune). This Indian person then went to do talks in Israel. There he decided that Israelis were Aggressive.
Israelis.
Aggressive.
In Israel.

Interesting concept.
I at this point exploded (probably the most animated I have been this whole trip as far - but don't worry i didn't scream or anything). I said to them -

"You think that all of this is because of circumcision? You don't think
that perhaps because Israel is situated in the middle east, surrounded by most
neighbours who don't want them there. They go to the Army for 3 years and then
spend the rest of their lives trying to survive through every peace talk and
war. You dont think that this trauma, aggression might just have come from their
situation?
"and are you trying to tell me that if no one was circumcised that there
would be no bloodshed in the world? is this what you are trying to tell
me?"

I was met with blank faces. I was told that i didn't understand what they were saying. I was told that it's true, and that I am just too young - they have more knowledge than me.
I'm still trying to work out if there is something i am not getting...


Okay well that is all I have time for.
