Awards Night Dec 2008

Treeve receives an award for most factual content contributed to Picture Penzance
No, I meant symons55;) not you, Treeve! laugh# Well, actually, it was the white collar that did it, Treeve. In all seriousness, can hardly imagine symons as a vicar - as a Buddha, perhaps yes! ::15:
 
Please explain! By the way, it was good to meet up with you, Charlie Downing, again! I very much hope you will scan and upload a few blasts from the past yourself!
 
You mentioned Sidhartha Gautama, the wise and holy man, known as The Buddha.
 
Pardon the ignorance of the unenlightened one! All is clear now! It was a Buddha to recognise the name of the enlightened one himself! laugh#
 
You should read Herman Hesse s book on him; an experience in itself - I rate this on the same level as The Prophet by Kahlil Gibran. Life changing books.
 
Not quite the same sort of read but may I suggest to you, and anyone else, that you try The Shack by Wm Paul Young. This, IMHO, wonderful book is an odd one out among the current list of bestsellers. I believe it is no.40 and all the more amazing for its being a modern equivalent of Bunyan s Pilgrim s Progress . It was a best seller in New York, having initially been turned down by all the publishers so that it was published by a group of his friends instead. They haven t regretted it. It was written by a man who has himself gone through the spiritual mill, so to speak. I would ask you to really make an effort to read this bool and see why I am so enthused. It really moved me. I find it hard to get down to reading anything nowadays but this novel was extremely poignant in its effect.
