Thankyou very much for your answer Dmytro. That is a good help.

Double vowels occur sometimes and i think they are perhps typos and
not scriptural errors in some of the scripts the writing of two
vowels in that way is not really possible so would ned little
correction. It is knowing what to correct to that is difficult
without a correct version.

Hi there Piya. How are you?
I am not here to be impolite or to hide anything from anyone.
I have no method of deception and using an "alias" is certain not of
either.I think there needs not be any debate as to wether the
internet is a a safe place or not.It is not like in real life where
being in the company of people doing naughty things will have a
negative influence on oneself but simply by using ones name people do
many underhanded things and I feel no problem with doing that.

By calling myself gnosis.panya I do not mean to say I am all wise and
all knowing. But merely that my heart feels that what this world
needs is wisdom. Certainly also compassion, strength, virtue and
charity. Monks have different names and noone accuses them of being
secretive by the use of them.

I am no monk but does a name make or break a monk?

I offer you my good intentions Piya and there is nothing else I can
give.
May you live a live of love and may you find what you are looking for.

On that note I shall go shopping for food.

May you all be happy and have a good day, rain or not.
