Re: [GROUP] The Unknown Life of Jesus Christ by Notovitch -

I see that this work is being listed under the genre, "religion". Might it also be appropriate to list in the "travel" genre, as well?

Re: [GROUP] The Unknown Life of Jesus Christ by Notovitch -

Here's an interesting National Geographic video on present-day polyandry in the Himalayas (one of the prime topics of section 3 [chapter 2, "Ladak"] of this book):

Re: [GROUP] The Unknown Life of Jesus Christ by Notovitch -

Thanks a bunch, Lucretia!! :D

Sandra, could you sign me up for the reading of Section 4 (A Festival in a Gonpa)?

[Section 3 was an unexpected jewel, especially the second half, where the author seems sort of awe-struck as he describes the polyandry of the Ladakians.)

THANKS!

Re: [HISTORY]House of Commons speeches collection, vol 3 - c

Re: A belated "Hello"

Hi Masa san, I think I'll need to get quite a bit more experience within the LibriVox community before I can competently take part in any discussions regarding improvement of the administrative structures and procedures. With this posting, I really simply wanted to belatedly greet everyone, and in o...

Re: A belated "Hello"

Hello Masa san, Thanks for your note! I'm afraid I can, for the most part, only lend moral support to the task of actively evangelizing on behalf of LibriVox in Japan, since I speak woefully little Japanese! With regard to the "House of Commons speeches collection" project, I think we can ...
