Well Michael, That was different! Nearly all of the metaphysical/spiritual stuff went over my head, but Bhakti Das sounded a sensible guy to me.I was an officer of HM Customs and Excise-nothing exciting, just boring Value added tax evasion.I got used to the concept that people would lie. Not everyone. When a Middle aged lady cries because you gave them a bill they can't pay & you know it's error rather than intent you don't feel great.However, catching someone who was a deliberate thief ? Sometimes it was just greed, other times desperation. Life teaches us -I hope- to show compassion where necessary and a fair bit of humility. Take care, Rhodri.
