I work with many rescuers and have been actively engaged in both doing TNR and advocating for it on many, many levels.<br /><br />Did you assume that since I fed cats, I didn't also practice TNR? Everybody who maintains colonies is well aware of what you say, and most are in contact with TNR people.<br /><br />Keeping the little guys sterilized and healthy is far more difficult and expensive than just feeding them. <br /><br />Unfortunately in LA, our public spay/neuter program has taken a drastic hit because of budget cuts.Ed Muzikahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13214241089861837159noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-27560333.post-26902454223057863822010-11-07T15:28:47.528-08:002010-11-07T15:28:47.528-08:00Hi Edji,
Please do not take this the wrong way . ...Hi Edji,<br /><br />Please do not take this the wrong way . We all know the story of feeding the masses with fish and then teaching the person to fish.<br />Well since we cannot teach cats to feed themselves, go buy cat food etc<br />and since cats multiply like crazy you have 2 million now next year you are looking at 4 million. This is the real problem and though feeding the cats is a important and satisfying thing to do for the person feeding them(it makes you feel good) The much more important thing than feeding is 2 fold.<br /><br />1Create free spray clinics in the LA area by having neutering free on certain days.<br />2. Even more important raise the awareness for cat owners how important this is and get them to go on free days with their furry friends.<br /><br />Edji if this is not done feeding them is like trying to melt a ice cube with a single match.<br />It's not that this is a good idea it has to be done.If not them we are sentencing millions of cats to their death. Feeding them only lasts for a while as the cat you feed today will have to compete with 2 times the cats next year for food.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-27560333.post-29150758929538483972010-11-07T14:43:16.592-08:002010-11-07T14:43:16.592-08:00Namaskar,

You are teaching, guiding and doing all these selfless activities of compassion yourself; that too physically. I even feel sad that you have still to write medical transcription for a living. It may be a good idea, as Rajivji mentioned, to pay for volunteers till some permanent solution arise. <br /><br />It would be great to see Edji NOT having to work for his living in this physical condition. It is the duty of us disciples and others who benefit from his teachings, guidance and cooking. More than the duty, it is a sheer blessing for us to serve our Sadguru. Let us all put our efforts, as much as one's financial and physical conditions permits, to help Edji focus comfortably on teaching and guiding his students and seekers. This effort is also part of meditation, cooking oneself and to allow us the space for grace to flow. <br /><br />On my part, though away from LA, I would try my best to assist any project within all possible means. If most of us can be take initiative of ourselves in whatever way we can and stick on this is not a difficult thing at all.<br /><br />My humble pranaams to all those selfless, who are already doing an incredible service, visibly and invisibly.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-27560333.post-54069269278063306412010-11-06T18:19:04.330-07:002010-11-06T18:19:04.330-07:00What I is left to feel anything for you?

I don't live anywhere near you.<br />I have a suggestion or two.<br />It's clear you need both money and physical.Two ideas came to mind.<br /><br />1. One could you offer to mentor 1 person who for rent exchange they would have much more access to you for spiritual tutoring [possibly<br />a spare room] but you get to interview the applicant first.<br /><br />2. I would contact Dr.John Nasse in Ojai, Ca. John is a amazing being.<br />He's a retired psychiatrist who love Advaita and all serious inquires. He knows everything of what is happening in Ojai and is a extremely generous being with his time and is well connected.<br /><br />The reason I mention the Ojai area as you may know it's a spiritual mecca and is filled with beautiful, giving folks that love to support worthy causes and have the funds to do so. Please don't be shy about connecting with John I know he would love to hear from you. You can find Dr. Nasse contact info online at the link below.<br />http://www.vitals.com/ratings/Dr_John_Nasse.html<br /><br />For the mod. The link is for Ed. Feel free to leave it in or take it out either way is fine<br /><br /><br />with loveAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-27560333.post-89191145690512576002010-11-06T08:59:04.054-07:002010-11-06T08:59:04.054-07:00Dear Edji,
