that would drive away almost any newbie from all-things-Nisargadatta, is a sad

lurking here for two or three days, and there's nothing much going on here but

banter. The place sort of shut down for the weekend too, which is often a sign

that people are just using it for a diversion Monday to Friday at work.

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.

Let people have their fun. Don't be thinking that just cuz a place calls itself

a Nisargadatta forum that that's what it actually is. But do you know of a place

where there *is* an interested group of internet forum people talking about

Nisargadatta and what he taught? I'd really like to be a part of it if it

exists. I've come up with this place:

forum was in March or April this year or something. (Interestingly, the

Adyashanti forum is buzzing, as is the Tolle forum, and just about any other

forum whose teacher is still walking the planet. I guess people like a teacher

they can *touch* lol.

Awareness.

So, you're assuming that posting happens because there is a need for them?

 

There must be a deep need for Tim's numerous posts on multiple lists, I guess.
