DC -- How embarrasing. I had just read some of the recent threads in this forum, and many of them have to do with yoga. By the time I got to this thread, I had mushed them altogether. Regardless, many of your comments are certainly consistent with yoga philosophy.
My interest in posting this forum is because its named purpose is to consider the relationship between the mind and body, i.e., "The Mind Body Discussion" forum. The content of your post was indeed psychological, but I understood your reference to not being "slaves to our heredity" as as a frame for contrasting your notions of personality and emotion within a physiological context.
To be honest, I have grown weary of the scientific-empirical persona I typically present and would enjoy interacting with some wooly headed metaphysicians. Obviously, my personal interests led to haste and carelessness. Sorry to have misunderstood your intentions.
