It is 3:30 a.m. May 10, 2023 here in St. John’s, Newfoundland.

According to
http://www.holidays-and-observances.com/may-10.html
May 10, 2023 is World Lupus Day and Trust Your Intuition Day.

I find that significant since my mother died in front of me when
I was about 1.5 years old from a heart attack or stroke that
was almost definitely influenced by her Lupus.

And, from
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Maya_(mother_of_the_Buddha)
“...Maya dies soon after the birth of Buddha, as all mothers
of Buddhas do in the Buddhist tradition.”

So the early death of the mother is a necessary, but of
course not sufficient, condition for the child to be a buddha.

For those not following my progress on alt.religion.druid,
there has been a major reset, and my seven main deities
other than My Species are now judging my stuff, and I
hope to get an activation sequence of some kind begun
before I hit the sack. Check that group if you are interested
in my progress.
