Guest guest Posted July 27, 2009 Report Share Posted July 27, 2009 Dear Most Respectable and Noble Edg Person: Please accept my most humble apologies for having suggested that your link was spam. For it was not, to my genuine thinking. I viewed it and enjoyed. I was glad you posted it. I am glad I viewed it! HONEST! With all due respect: I was kidding. I'm so sorry that I failed to make this clear to you. Most Sincerely Sky PS: Your condemnation of me and of this was most scathing. Most scathing. Ie, delightful! Thank you. I hope you enjoyed writing it as much as I enjoyed reading it. Most scathing, indeed! I couldn't have done a better job! I, myself, couldn't have said it better! I agree with EVERY WORD! Kudos to you, my fine feathered friend! > I would rather have spam of this nature than the daily onslaught of " spam " of folks who are only interested in promoting an image of themselves here as some sort of enlightened Advaitic geniuses. > > So many here come off as dropouts from the Wayne Liquorman School Of Advaita -- and their only ability is to come up with quasi-Advaitic put-downs like they were Ram Tzu. As if. > > And to come here day after day and only find, well, childishness that would drive away almost any newbie from all-things-Nisargadatta, is a sad thing indeed. The energy of the dialog here is a besmirching of the knowledge. To me, even seekers should early on in their search at least attempt to protect the knowledge -- even if they are not yet clear about that body of concepts. But let a newbie come here and bang, bang, bang the newbie's ego will be jeered and trounced. It's tawdry. It's sick. It's dead wrong. It's fucked. > > Here -- a place called " Nisargadatta " -- we find a spiritual old west saloon where even the rinky-tinking piano cannot drown out the catcalled squawkings that are poised as if newly cognized sutras from the Vedas. > > If anyone gets offended about the above criticism, hey, bingo, there's your proof that you're part of the problem. > > You won't miss me if I go, and I won't let the door hit my ass on my way out, but geeze, surely this criticism of this group has been posted many times before my own rendition. > > I'll get back to you -- gotta think about this -- I'm going to dwell on the issue of whether or not my integrity requires that I no longer participate herein and thus be part of problem. > > This place now seems to me to be as if a bombed out church that is inhabited by a few derelicts who pretend it is the Vatican and each one of them the Pope, but in reality, all that's left out of the 1300+ folks who signed up here are spiritually ratty squatters shitting on the good name of Nisargadatta by being insane on purpose instead of wise, loving, caring, etc. > > Where's the sense of responsibility for others who come here for support, for a first lecture about Advaita, for guidance? > > Who's the owner of this group? Hur? I'm calling you out. The name " Nisargadatta " requires that you defend why you've allowed this place to become such a travesty. > > Edg > > > > > Nisargadatta , " skywhilds " <skywords@> wrote: > > > > Nisargadatta , " douglasmitch1963 " <douglasmitch1963@> wrote: > > > > > > Nisargadatta , " anabebe57 " <kailashana@> wrote: > > > > > > > > Nisargadatta , " geo " <inandor@> wrote: > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > - > > > > > geo > > > > > Nisargadatta > > > > > Monday, July 27, 2009 8:32 AM > > > > > Re: Re: A New Film on Nisargadatta " TATVAMASI " > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > - > > > > > geo > > > > > Nisargadatta > > > > > Monday, July 27, 2009 8:15 AM > > > > > Re: Re: A New Film on Nisargadatta " TATVAMASI " > > > > > > > > > > - > > > > > geo > > > > > Nisargadatta > > > > > Monday, July 27, 2009 8:05 AM > > > > > Re: Re: A New Film on Nisargadatta " TATVAMASI " > > > > > > > > > > - > > > > > Tim G. > > > > > Nisargadatta > > > > > Monday, July 27, 2009 6:35 AM > > > > > Re: A New Film on Nisargadatta " TATVAMASI " > > > > > > > > > > Nisargadatta , " Advaita " <abideinself@> wrote: > > > > > > > > > > > > You can watch > > > > > > > > > > You? > > > > > -tim- > > > > > > > > > > You so aroused/cought by this me-you stuff that is so simple.
