I'm completely confused.  How am I obedient? Because I ask questions? How is this obedience? Are you saying you're telling me to ask questions? I also don't understand why you place moderator above owner. I am nothing. I sit by and read these posts and say stuff as I feel fit, but I have no power. I could move the posts, ubt fortunately I don't have to make those decisions because Randall does that for me. Thanks by the way Randall. I thought the code was cracked. Aren't you schizophrenic? Three identities in one? You've said somewhere that thing's can look the same on the outside, but remain different on the inside. Isn't this confirming that? Darn also means "To mend (a garment, for example) by weaving thread or yarn across a gap or hole." By stating the two sides of the heart, do you mean God is not everywhere? I can not believe that as God created all and is all. By your words you seem to want profanity, so why not leave us alone? Or are you saying you are giving us what we want? Orchid, I was using a baseball analogy - I don't know if they've "done anything wrong" except to use three names from the same IP. Now, this concused me too: quote: I say " not too long ago people who post here against us sought the opinions of those who are scorned"
What do you mean? Did people put people down and then ask what they thought of that? quote: the question is "what should really be scorned? not who" but you know that dont you.
No, I don't understand this either. Are you refering to ideas and misconceptions? I'm sure these could be analysed without putting down the analyser. My question is always, what are people trying to say or do? Why the vehemence? Why the need for titles such as master? Why say "My God is better than yours" or "I know God more than you"? These statements don't make sense to me except to help people with their presonal evolution, and even then I find it a complex way of doing this. Heaps of Love, Dean. IP: Logged |

Great questions and points Dean. I was wondering today, why these certain same people keep coming back to this site. What is it that they feel they need to prove to us? Why is trying to convert the people of LindaLand so important to them? If they have knowledge to share that is fine - share - that is what we do here. People always gravitate towards Truth and Love. This person seems very attatched to their ego, and they are frustrated that people are seeing through them. And making them come face to face with their own DEMONS. This is not how they wanted the game to go. Their ego is upset, as ego's usually are. This person is trying to teach things that they have been taught but have never experienced. This is clear. Proving that you must learn everything yourself and in your own time. Using devious ways to try to attract a following will always get turned around on you. If there was total LOVE in this person and their teachings, none of this ugliness would be taking place. But this person is starting to realize that even THEY dont know the teachings as well as they think they do. The angry posts are proof of this. They are really just angry with themselves. Life is a mirror. It's really sad, that these people cant see that if they actually WERE on the Path or WERE following the Way, they wouldnt be coming back here over and over again. And certainly not coming back to spread the ugliness that they have been. They would realize that there is nothing to prove. But clearly a disturbed ego is involved. And the ego - or as they say - "the nafs" - is a tough thing to get rid of. It puts up a strong fight. The trick is - not to fight it. Emerse yourself in it first - dont try to push it away too soon. It's the only way you will ever let it go. Learn it's lessons - or they will keep coming back and stronger than ever. We now know why this person keeps coming back and bringing friends along with him. He is attatched to this place, because he/she is attatched to his ego. His/Her ego was the only thing that he had here all along. No wisdom, just ego. Now that the mirror is being held up and he is seeing the reflection he is angry. But that is okay. It's beautiful really. This is what happens to seekers on their path. You can only see true beauty after you've seen and faced the ugliness within yourself. Eventually this person will face it and that will be the greatest teaching they have ever been taught. And they'll realize that they taught it to themself. No teacher was needed. Lose the teachings. Find yourself. IP: Logged |

That's all very well and good 26 But a quick look at previous posts will reveal that Shizuka "came back" (I didn't realize she had left) because Saffron asked a question and Shizuka felt she could offer a answer. I'm wondering if you are "back" because you feel you also have an answer to Saffron's question. Or is there another reason?

Hey Tink,Well, what I have "realized" is that "Shizuka" is also, magidivision and Meili and God only knows who else. So in reality only one of "her" has left. And I never "left". I am "here" because I have something to say about Shizuka. I've let Shizuka answer whatever Saffron's question was. Did you ever hear me address Saffron? If he DID address me, I might have payed more attention to the question, but he didnt, so I havent. I dont see the point in your quesion. Why are YOU "back".  And thank you for re-quoting that quote. I am being kind.  IP: Logged |

BTW, you think that using the quote that I used once is funny? Why is that quote funny to you? Are you fighting a really "hard battle" Tink? Harder than any of the rest of us?  IP: Logged |

This is bizarre! Trillian, (going back a few pages) I loved your story. My feeling is that a true "master" would do better than to announce him/herself as such.  IP: Logged |

Not that I know of, but I only see her here now, to try to defend the GURU. And sometimes to "address" me.  IP: Logged |

Calm down 26  Why am I here? You asked a question. I had an answer. Nice and simple - no funny stuff. "I've let Shizuka answer whatever Saffron's question was" How very kind of you. (First post btw - in case you were looking) "did you ever hear me address Saffron?" No I didn't see you post in regard to Saffron's question. Hence my question. I am no position to defend magidivision. Neither does he need it, I would imagine. I believe my last 2 posts were about Ahriman ( to Eleanore in GU) and one of pixel's poems (in Yellow Wax. A very nice poem btw - you should have a look). I don't think either have anything to do with magidivision. Just another example of how very easy it is to come to a wrong conclusion or make an inaccurate assumpstion w/o all the facts. "Be kind because everyone you meet is experiencing a hard battle" "teachings memorized or only learned in the mind and not experienced in the heart are useless" yup. funny.  hello pixel IP: Logged |

Riiiight.Sorry sweetie, but I didnt memorize that one.  I dont even know what Saffron's question was. He didnt ask me a question, so I am not going bother to answer it. Hence my question to you. Sorry your GURU/Master didnt turn out to be Real hon. No need to take it out on everyone else who sees through it. Why are you so defensive? The post I made above should not have made YOU upset in any way. THAT'S funny.  IP: Logged |

And I've read the poems. It's funny how the few of you who were all about this magidivision are now so defensive here. TINK, Daf, orchid.... Seems "someone" has written alot of you ladies some cute little poems.  Some of us dont let our ego's fall for that kind of thing. It's cute though.....cute. He's a "real" romantic. A regular Shakespeare.  Do Sufists not believe in marriage vows? IP: Logged |

26 ~ I've no doubt you are a wonderful person. What I don't understand is why you let this Guru stuff get you in such a tizzy. If Saffron (a she btw) has a question for him - what's the big deal? You like Osho. I think Osho was a dangerous fraud. But I certainly don't feel the need to argue his merits with you all night. If you like him, knock yourself out.  I posted because you asked why Shizuka was here. I answered because I suspected I knew the answer to your question - Shizuka posted because she had an answer to Saffron's question. Nice and simple, right? Now I see that you posted because you wanted to comment on Shizuka. Which brings me back to my tizzy question. Your post made me curious. I don't know about you but I'm learning a whole lot! IP: Logged |

I'm not sure what poems you are refering to. The poem I mentioned was by pixel in Yellow Wax. It was called "Yin ... Yang?"If I didn't know better I'd think you were responding to my posts without fully reading them. Hey, more common ground for you and Jwhop! IP: Logged |

TINK~ "The Guru stuff" has not gotten my into a tizzy. Nor have I mentioned Osho anywhere here. Nice try, bringing that up though. EXACTLY!! "I dont feel the need to argue anyone's merits", that is why I am not. And I have "knocked myself out", thank you. As you can see I havent been trying to knock anyone else out either. And if you remember, I said "I was WONDERING" to myself "why this person keeps coming back to LindaLand". I was not asking Shizuka OR you why she (THEY) keep coming back here. One of her alter ego's said she was leaving and now she is back, I was wondering why. To answer your tizzy question, I am not in one. That's all I can say. I may come across that way to you, but I am not. I'm learning a whole lot as well. Peace. ------------------ "We don't see things as they are...we see things as we are". -Anais Nin IP: Logged |

Honest to God I really don't know which poems you mean. Where? I'd love to read it.With all due respect, we did have a lovely little conversation about Osho just a few weeks ago on this very same board. And, although you might have been "wondering to yourself" why Shizuka came back, you did post it. Either way, I hope my answer helped.  IP: Logged |

"Honest to God?" I was talking about Daf's poems to each of you ladies, that just happen to be so defensive of this GURU. Yours was "True Blue (makes you tink)". I think you knew that though. Sorry, I found it cute. Nice poem - but the reasoning behind it, funny. It does "make you tink".  It's been nice conversing with you. Peace.

In terms of the poetry, the post about True Blue Tink was posted in April. Just thought I'd clarify. Whatever that means. IP: Logged |

Beatitudes Blessed are the poor in spirit, for theirs is the kingdom of heaven.
Blessed are those who mourn, for they shall be comforted. Blessed are the gentle, for they shall inherit the earth. Blessed are those who hunger and thirst for righteousness, for they shall be satisfied. Blessed are the merciful, for they shall receive mercy. Blessed are the pure in heart, for they shall see God. Blessed are the peacemakers, for they shall be called sons of God. Blessed are those who have been persecuted for the sake of righteousness, for theirs is the kingdom of heaven. Blessed are you when people insult you and persecute you, and falsely say all kinds of evil against you because of Me.  ------------------ If having a soul means being able to feel love and loyalty and gratitude, then animals are better off than a lot of humans. ~James Herriot IP: Logged |

I heard that TINK  If all roads ultimately lead to the same destination, does it really matter which one we choose to travel?  Is there any virtue derived from getting to the ultimate destination first? If life is about experiences, is it better to take the freeways or the backroads? Do you think a Guru would advise you to concentrate on the shortest distance between 2 points or the broadest possible experiences?  IP: Logged |
