No offense to anyone, but I think the people to listen to are the ones that have been Baptised in the Holy Spirit
and now pray or speak in tongues.
Otherwise, it appears to only be speculation, interpretation and even emotional.


I looked from the outside for years with simple curiousity.
No emotion, no fear of the unknown, no creepiness....just 'what the heck is this and I would like to do that' ----
I mean, if it is a Gift of the Holy Spirit....I'd like it, too.

So, in July 2009 - I "did it", and am very happy I did.
It did make a difference in my life.

I may pray in tongues for 15 minutes as I drive to some gathering.
I am amazed at what a different person I am when I start interacting with people.
I'm all of a sudden more witty, funnier, clearer, more "on".
Like, who is this person?

I sure didn't feel that way getting ready to go to the group.

I have been cured within 5-10 minutes of severe heat stroke - severe - just praying in tongues alone
miserable on my bed as red as a lobster with everything from my neck
up throbbing...
knowing my entire day is ruined and this will take a day to recover from...
I'm Swedish and for some reason have never been able to take a sauna or the sun for too long without being miserable for maybe 6 hours.
So, I really know heat stroke.

I can't explain what praying in tongues is...it sounds like Korean,
Hindi, Cherokee gibberish to me, also... pretty gibberish,
but it just flows out of me.
I love it, whatever it is.

So scoof all you want, think or interpret the Bible whatever way you want - but
I do it in privacy and love it.

Nothing else I can say, I guess.

Prepare yourself for the coming astral journey of death by daily riding in the balloon of God-perception.
Through delusion you are perceiving yourself as a bundle of flesh and bones, which at best is a nest of troubles.
Meditate unceasingly, that you may quickly behold yourself as the Infinite Essence, free from every form of misery. ~Paramahansa's Guru's Guru
