Lusters: who are always looking for lust usually sexual.
It is unsusual for the TV evangelists to say something beneficial for the audience. Most of the 'sermons' are without substance (My own judgement and you are free to challeng it) that I happened to see on opening up the channel on sunday.
This one was full of all kinds of gimmicks (as usual) and mannerisms and show-savy stage-work, but the message was sound and clear:
Do not go after your lusts and remember God, definitely asking the audience to control the desire. A valuable and sorely needed exhortation indeed.
This, as it happens sometimes, was just a day after I saw the 'history' of a town in California, (January 1966) when a large number of 'youngsters and not-so-young-ones all got together with freely available LSD, experimenting a 'hippy' style of life, something new, something exciting and "psychedelic" experience. "Human" males and females together, with little regard to hesitation or abashment or shame under the effect of LSD "enjoying" in free sex openly in front of all (of course effectively 'censored' for showing on TV)
I was watching with horror and amazement that history of "human beings". I recalled my own experience of how I had to learn new terminology related to this part of the "hippy" movement. New fashions introduced like, being 'scruffy' ('unkempt' in my language), psychedelic colors invading all walks of life (Wimbledon matches started showing green balls instead of traditional white) clothes uniforms or whatever you can imagine changed colors (Not necessarily all disagreeable or detestable, mind you) Beatles and Rolling Stones had already changed lot of traditional dressing anyway and the hairstyles--- yes I recall jokes of the renowned Pakistani commedy maestro "Moeen Akhter" highlighting the embarrassment of telling a man from a woman. You may remember many of his jokes.
So this is how LSD, an hallucinogenic drug newly arrived in the medical research fields back then, highjacked by these' hippies', effectively metamorphosed all the fads and styles.
So when I heard some speaker (well-known psychiatrist) was in town, to talk on this subject we hurried to his lecture. The topic, "On going to Pots". Naturally we, as young physicians, were expecting, here is a chance to learn something about these drugs'( such as LSD, Marijuana etc.) pharmacology, pharmacodynamics, effects and side-effects etc.
This is how he opened his lecture (and I'll never forget it):
"Ladies and genetlemen, when I was young I knew where God was-- at the head of the dinner table every evening" (emphasizing the role of proper parenting, the lack of which apparently turnes the youngsters to 'pots') It was a 'sermon' more than a medical lecture.
Yes. The preachers should teach the morals from the podium without regard to the likes and dislikes of the contents of the sermon.
Saugoree means I was born or I hail from Saugor This is the way they spelt the name of that city of my birth during British days of India. Then I moved at 11 years of age to Kotla a village in the Panjab close to the Kashmir border where I finished my initial education and childhood going on to Lahore for further studies where I got BSc and MBBS and then left for NWFP where I spent 2 1/2 years, teaching in the new Medical School, and from there leaving for UK and then USA
