		<description>Dear Joan, 

via an E-Newsletter from Asara I came to look to your website, and I stumbled about &quot;shame&quot;. Whenever I asked me in all this years shame? this has nothing to do with me. But when I listened to these two examples you offer for free, I suddenly had to recognize, IT HAS something to do with me. I could recognize the feeling with my early childhood - it never came up in primal therapy, it never came up in any of these hundreds of groups and sessions I made in Poona. The missing links were money poorness. This is a really opening. - And now I step &quot;just by accident&quot; (!), attracted by your confession, into my main-theme since years: Do I have to/can I be frankly with my spirituality, when it goes about business, professional expectations and the &quot;world as usual&quot;? As after all these years I still use my Sannyas Name I at least give a signal about the real thing. But in the last years I was often asking if it is hindering my business success. And just three days ago I for the first time met a new client to talk with her about her new website. And after all she said in these two hours I asked her: You are meditating? And she confessed. And she also told me, that she keeps this as her secret. 
You see, your thoughts create a big rumbeling, and it seems, something has to be cleared out. Why should Spirituality not be just a normal &quot;thing&quot;? Spirituality is everybodies source and background, why bother so much? I will look for the answers to these questions.
Thank you for your frankly and loving input.

		<description>Hi Joan,

I ran across your website when I was doing research for tele-classes that I&#039;ll be offering. I am not familiar with your work. 

I just wanted to commend you for being vulnerable and allowing the &quot;Infinite Energy&quot; that &quot;Force&quot; that you know guides you to be credited for others to see. 

I help people manifest their heart&#039;s desires (desired outcomes - including relationships).  I clearly see the difference between my clients who allow &quot;God&quot; or &quot;Infinite Energy&quot; (however they acknowledge it)to co-create their lives. The ones who acknowledge that energy can reach any of their dreams. 

The big thing is allowing each person&#039;s spirituality to be their own and not mandate who or what their God needs to be (which unfortunately is not yet common practice). Although, it sounds you are able to do this.

		<description>Dear Joan,
I have been a fan of your podcasts and have followed your blogs and always believed that you connected finances with the Infinite.  You can&#039;t have one without the other.  At no time did I feel that you made money more important than working with and in the Divine.  Sometimes we are so focused on what we do that we don&#039;t realize that we ourselves are on the path we are trying to get others on.  Thank you for always sharing what you know.</description>

		<description>Joan,

Thank you so much for sharing this.  It makes me appreciate you even that much more.  A noticed this quote in a friend of mine&#039;s email signature the other day, “Stay true and your heart will lead you truly”.  And, I know that to be true.</description>

		<description>I am SO glad to hear this, Joan, and to celebrate with you. I had to &quot;come out&quot; spiritually as well some years ago. And I&#039;ve talked to a number of big business guru types, and many of them hide their spirituality, fearing their clients can&#039;t handle it- when their spirituality is the reason for how they handle what they do!

So, definitely celebrating with you! Woo-hoo! We all need it so desperately from each other.</description>
