Re: [UUPoly-L] Spiritual Polygynist Family

[K Kylev <sweetbinbi@gmail.com>]

Hello!  Karen,

Thank you so much for writing.  Spiritual Polygynist Family is my own
terminology.

I had just explained here about my type spirituality and what I meant by
Spiritual Polygynist Family, but after rereading your email it does not seem
you were asking only that I clarify in the future, which I will do.  Thank
you.  But if I am wrong and you are interested in knowing more, just let me
know.

Well you have given a little more on the book than I had found in that you
got India, I did not have that much.

Thanks again for writing.

Blessings
Kaylah
