..including the guts and the digestive processes. She emphasised endocrine inspired behaviours which I won't dwell on but "soft words butter no parsnips" is the mot juste and I'll speak plainly this once. Medicating a bull elephant is NOT a good idea. Let's be clear: in her mind's eye it was not a tranquillised elephant was it Miss Shah.
There is a literary record of just such a product and the consequences of its misuse. It's been dramatised and the description comes near the end but I'll the post whole thing later and just link this HERE. The effects on men would be as disconcerting LINK as on elephants and when we mix in the Indian obsession with bodily functions I feel that an invitation to Miss Shah would be appropriate. Perhaps the deaconess or a member of the Pastoral team could counsel her? It's not my place to suggest exorcism of course, and I won't suggest that, but maybe a weekend retreat working on one of the ranches would get rid of her surplus energy and stop her thinking about elephants?

I am hoping that Mr. Hold is not being offended by my still being beside the point. I am thinking that the communism in the Soviet Union was the ultimate form of oligarchy with the caste of the party members and the caste of all the others. Yes. It was not possible to choose your own path there. I have been telling the story of the blind men and the elephant: one is thinking that it is a column, another that it is a fan, the third one is assuming that it is a wall and many christians are concentrating on the lingam of the elephant. Communism was seeing the guts and the digestive processes. They were thinking that if we are filling the nation with raw materials they will produce good living. They never saw the brain and the mind and the eyes of the elephant our friend. Yes. I am not saying that they were any better in ancient India. There is more to life than the lingam. It can be treated with the Viagra but there is more to the elephant. Yes. There is also the herd. Yes.
