a chaotic level. Is that something you've added to the
MOQ? Also,about Hitler. What's your point?"

     Somewhere I was introduced to this chaotic level.
 I looked in Lila, and saw nothing of it.  Thank you
for pointing this out to me.  This is what happens
when I begin to change a philosophy without realizing
it.  
     As to Hilter, well, he is an individual so he
fits on the individual level.  He staged a new society
of pure race, yet, this individual emphasized a
celebrity establishment, an archetypal personality
that a whole society was to follow.  The dismissal of
the Dharmakaya light, which peers beyond the culture
of one or many.
