Dearest Dal,

Estrella was not asking about theosophy - see header of this post.
When I was being trained to teach occult matters, I was told a few
simple rules: answer only the question that has been asked; do not
volunteer more than has been asked for, and do not offer answers
which, as we might say on the list, are "off topic."  Your reply is "off
topic," and comes across as an attempt to proselytize.

Best,

Alan
