“Mahendranath says naths should not be named with god names. It is arrogant and disrespectful.
But Mahendra is a god’s name.”

That’s hilarious, especially given that the letters of the alphabet are the Matrikas (goddesses) which/who collectively are Sarasvati (goddess). My own nath name is a contradiction in terms — nonsensical to anyone familiar with the masculine forms in Sanskrit and Hindi. The best part of that joke is that it did not originate with any study of Indian language. It was from dreamtime after reading something on the subject of Kabbalah and long before any interest, on my part, in tantrism or anything from India. Jokes abound.

Thanks for the heads up on Morrison.

As you know, I’ve had my hand in many spiritual tills but somehow this one got by me.

You call his work great late 20th Century tantra.

That’s good enough for moi; I hied off to Amazon and some of his books are on the way.
