retraction

[David Dalton]

Some clarifications from a thread on alt.buddha.short.fat.guy :

I said avatar type, not avatar. I don’t believe that those who
have been called avatars actually were.

So I guess I retract my claim to being the latest incarnation of Kamadeva.
(However I still claim to have matchmaking ability.)

See the Glossary on my mystic page for my definition of ootw.

OK, I will repeat it here:

ootw=Opener of the Way, and for humans an ootw is one who has undergone a
sun stare, thorn hill climb, and blue rose vision, while for cetaceans it is
probably still a sun stare and analogies to the thorn hill climb and blue
rose vision. I previously called an ootw an avatar type. An ootw is capable
of soul-aligning with any other someone given permission of the other
someone, which I relate to stories of Krishna making himself big or small. I
also call an ootw a primary ootw.

I also used to call an avatar type one similar to some who have been
called avatars, as well as many who have not (e.g. Moses and Jacob).
