[MD] Lila = Divine Play

[Ian Glendinning]

Ah right, thanks Andre ... I obviously didn't study Lila's Child

I was thinking along Marsha's lines ... a kind of subconscious
knowing, maybe, (and the memory does play tricks on which memories
remain available to conscious recall, even if they were conscious in
real time).

I'll get a copy Marsha.
