Dear Roeme, >> It seems to me that most of the mystics and yogis seem to just work on wisdom and neglect the other three aspects. Am I right? << No, I don't think there's any basis for such a generalization considering how many sorts of Yoga there are and how many flavors of mysticism exist. I think you've misunderstood the statement of Bardon's that you originally quoted: "A mystic, yogi etc., who has been unilaterally trained sees in his deity only one aspect which he reveres and to which he renders the highest worship and recognition". The key word in that quote is *unilaterally*. He was speaking only about those who trained *unilaterally*. He's *not* implying that *all* yogis and mystics train unilaterally. My best to you, :) Rawn Clark 27 Jul 2003 rawnclark@... rawn@... http://www.ABardonCompanion.com http://groups.yahoo.com/group/BardonPraxis http://E.webring.com/hub?ring=arionthebardonwe
