Summarized from my informal personal notes during a special public "Panel"
Satsanga at Los Angeles, 31 July 1975. Panelists= Bro. Achalananda, Dennis Weaver, Dr. & Mrs. Lipski, Jack & Sylvia Posack.
(Disclaimer: Anything below
that seems unclear is solely due to my note taking. In the actual
satsanga the speakers made their points very clearly. Also, notes
cover only a fragment of entire the satsanga. )
