El: Professional Jealousy--Meetings with Maharaj 8

[Guest guest]

Hi El!

 

I'm a poor thinker, so

such respect goes

right over my head!

 

How I heard it: a definition of a being

in terms of his thinking capacity,

as if that were his defining contribution.

 

Not, " one who spoke profoundly and deeply " but

" a great thinker " --

better than " a poor thinker " , I suppose ;-)

 

We're dealing with images of persons here,

either way, mine of N., yours of N.,

N.'s of K. -- how much do these really matter?

And certainly " poor thinker " or

" great thinker " is presentation of an image.

 

Well, whatever happened with that

N. and K. event,

it's past. Whatever I said about it,

is also past. What do I know about

that event? Nothing.

 

Love,

Dan

 

 

Re: Maharaj and Krishnamurti.

 

You took me back, saying this Dan.

In respect to Maharaj.

 

Because I never saw that in Maharaj.

 

I saw him as having great respect

for people who had accomplished

great things.

 

I took his calling J. Krishnamurti

a great thinker in that context.
