Guest guest Posted April 11, 2001 Report Share Posted April 11, 2001 cont'd>>>>><br><br>right, and this club is peopled by the popular fantasy of a little victorian girl. at an english language message board inhabited by adults it should be safe to assume a certain proficiency with the tongue, including knowledge of the meaning of quotation marks and other punctuation. there was nothing too hard to grasp in the inconsequential remark you refer to, no double entendre, nothing for you and your suddenly dainty friends to lose sleep over. clever you've given up the specious claim that there was anything gratuitously "gay" or "sexual" about it, and have now settled for the whimpering, civilised-appearing assertion of "bad taste." kind of telling that you have no similar "bad taste" lecture for those hurling the word "queer" or referring to those protesting anti-gay hate speech as "crapping chihuahuas."<br><br><<<<<Mistakes are not really our big challenge -<br> it is how we go about correcting it. An apology to the board would be in order -and that way we could show more confidence in your posts.>>>>><br><br>pray tell us: what mistake have i made that i would be apologizing for, oh venerable anonymous club screen name sage?<br><br><<<<<I support you in developing a peaceful frame of mind and good decorum. If you are in acceptance of yourself there will be nothing to defend.>>>>><br><br>LMFAO! please, could you lay it on a little thicker, whoever you are? if we were all approaching samadhi we wouldn't be sitting around typing, would we? we would be in the state of turiya, seeing god in everything, having all our worldly needs attended to by fellow sadhus.<br><br>and thank you again for the lesson in classic baiting: accuse as "defensive" the object of your offensive attacks. i've simply stated truth in the face of lies and hatred which most in the world have no voice to counter. in many countries when somebody says "sick of the gay thing" it leads not to specious religious right baiting on the internet but to public torture and execution, justified by fundamentalist religious confusion. <br><br>as seen here, lies and hatred may come in blatant hate speech, or may be couched in pedagogic lecturing or bland bureaucratese, as anyone ever denied employment, housing or academic opportunity because of intolerance can tell you, and as civil court records undeniably document.<br><br><<<<<And suddwenly [sic] it will seem as though the whole world are [sic] more in acceptance of you. All of us just want acceptance - we're really not too fussy who gives it.>>>>><br><br>again, you give no personal information, so what about you are we supposed to accept in the worldly, illusory mode you speak of? i am humble before the divine light within you and everyone. in the spirit of santosha i accept as a real phenomenon (ie, am content with) your mis-self-identification with the mind and senses; but understand, yoga teaches, and i believe, that all phenomena by definition are not real.<br><br>happy to continue to answer all of your questions and to clear confusion. but, as i have said repeatedly, would prefer to get back to a more ashtanga-oriented discussion, as that would be more useful. you may feel free to address your fixation on gay men if you like, but in the context of the ashtanga please, and for your own sake, within an honest, respectful tone.

Guest guest Posted April 11, 2001 Report Share Posted April 11, 2001 Om Blessed Self<br><br>Well, I see that you have slipped back into that disconnected, scatterer gun approach that I dissected in Post 7319. Old habits die hard and just when you were showing some promise.<br><br>As with anyone's attempts to improve his/her character and behaviour there are plenty of lapses. This is just another one for you. I'm sure there will be more in the future for you in this area and in others. As with all of us.<br><br>But, it is getting a little wearisome again and again to remind you of your errors in approach as well as reminding you of your potential. So I think I will follow my own advice and let you and karma reform yourself. I'll skip reading or replying to your posts for a while. Perhaps I'll audit one every two months or so to see how you are doing. Perhaps others should do the same. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest guest Posted April 16, 2001 Report Share Posted April 16, 2001 i go with your suggestion to get back to the "more ashtanga-oriented discussion".<br><br>It may be way more fun for you to not spend so-o-o-o much time on this board, particularly in conflict. Try happy things!<br>And before you post....just consider it! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted April 18, 2001 Report Share Posted April 18, 2001 ah yes, your life would just be so much more full of "happy things" if the "queer" would just get lost? and this request of yours has to do with ashtanga yoga ... how, oh anonymous screen name?
