According to the map and introduction, Issa's journey passed through Northern India and reached as far west as foothills of the himalaya mountains. In this time, many groups of spiritual teachers lived in this areas, and they like Issa questioned the religious beliefs and authority of orthodox Brahaminism who worshiped the Vedas. Issa could have studied spiritual texts and visited groups spiritual seekers who had rejected the Vedas. Lumbini, Sarnath, Benares, Vaisalu, Nalanda, Bodgaya, and Rajagrha all contained sacred sites and still attract spiritual seekers today.

After having perfected himself in the Pali language, Issa applied himself to the study of the sacred writings of the Sutras. Issa's understanding of the Pali language would have allowed him to study of the Pali Canon and many of the early Mahayana Sutras. The early Mahayana Sutras were written starting in 100 BC and the writing and study of these early Sutras continued until approximately 100 AD.

Here we are 4 sessions into the 7 session Christmas rally, and QQQQ and NDX are both down almost 2%. Only 3 more sessions to go... Why, it's enough to test a person's faith!

I tried to write some Gregorian Chant, but my Latin is just too rusty. So God will just have to settle for this modern-day musical prayer.

Okay God, here's your big chance for fame! And my big chance for fortune! Show us what you can do!!

MERCEDES BENZ---AND CAN YOU THROW IN A CHRISTMAS RALLY TOO ?
(sorry Janis)

Oh Lord, won’t you buy me a Mercedes Benz ?
My friends all drive Porsches, I must make amends.
Worked hard all my lifetime, no help from my friends,
So Lord, won’t you buy me a Mercedes Benz ?

Oh Lord, won’t you buy me a color TV ?
Dialing for Dollars is trying to find me.
I wait for delivery each day until three,
So oh Lord, won’t you buy me a color TV ?

Oh Lord, won’t you buy me a night on the town ?
I’m counting on you, Lord, please don’t let me down.
Prove that you love me and buy the next round,
Oh Lord, won’t you buy me a night on the town ?

Oh Lord, won’t you give me a Christmas rally ?
Squeeze them shorts hard Lord, don't show no mercy.
Just 3 sessions left, won’t you please hear my plea ?
So oh Lord, won’t you give me a Christmas rally ?

Oh Lord, won’t you please send Jim Cramer to the moon ?
He must be a devil, can’t stand that big goon.
He talked me into buying long options way too soon,
Oh Lord, won’t you please send Jim Cramer to the moon ?

Oh Lord, won’t you please get my broker off my tail ?
My calls are underwater, my balance makes me wail.
Make those Fed calls vanish like dust in a gale,
Oh Lord, won’t you please get my broker off my tail ?

(everybody)
Oh Lord, won’t you give me a Christmas rally ?
Squeeze them shorts hard Lord, don't show no mercy.
Just 3 sessions left, won’t you please hear my plea ?
So oh Lord, won’t you give me a Christ....mas.... ral....ly ?

That's it!
