Folk Wisdom
I love holidays. Especially holidays devoted to sex. Pilgrims celebrating the Hindu month of Shravan (mid-July to mid-August) are filling the pockets of marijuana sellers in the Deoghar district of Jharkand, according to a report in the News Post of India. Considered auspicious by followers of Lord Shiva, the month is marked by, among other things, a pilgrimage by millions of adherents to pour water on the Shiva Linga at the Baidyanath temple in Deoghar.I think the Shiva Linga deserves some explanation. It is the male sex organ. Now why would pot and the male sex organ be combined in celebration? I think it is folk wisdom. I wrote an article a while back, Better than Viagra, about the helpful properties of marijuana when it comes to sex. It is possible the Hindus are on to something. It is possible they have been on to it for a very long time. It is my estimation that when the boomers figure this out in a big way the drug war will be over. It is hard to stand between a man and sex. Heck the ladies would be quite supportive as well. Cross Posted at Power and Control and at The Astute Bloggers posted by Simon on 08.17.07 at 08:05 PM |

I have a compilation of bhangra beat music, techno from the Indian emigré community in England. According to the liner notes, bhangra, Indian folk music, draws its name from bhang, the hemp plant, and is a reference to rural farming. Yeah, right.
