I'd be interested in any other examples you might have, besides technical writing of course, where you'd admit "trouble with comprehension".  This was supposedly Rawat just plain talking to a bunch of people who knew and respected him.  Why was he unintelligible then?  Could it possibly be that he really has nothing to say and a very murky undisciplined way of saying it?  Come on, be honest.  If anyone else confused you so you'd be at least willing to consider where their expression, rather than your reception, had fallen short.  But you can't do that with Rawat, can you?  Think where it might lead.

However, I have printed out and enjoyed all the trainings so far. Currently am reading the Arundel one. I love the anecdotes and stories and feel that he's quite sincere about what he's trying to achieve. Excellence in team work is absolutely essential for a positive outcome of any chosen project - just ask my band!

How can you enjoy something you can't understand?  Especially, when the person shouting out the message is berating people for supposedly not "getting it"?  You make yourself sound like you're mentally handicapped and happy to just look at the pretty pictures, the text being over your head.  Of course you don't think of yourself like that in the least.  This is just part of the typical game-playing you'll resort to to avoid calling a spade a spade.  Scratch you on another occasion and you'll be boasting with the best of them about your razor-sharp mind as you ridicule the lesser faculties of more coomon folk.  Doc as the simple goatherd doesn't cut it.  We know you.

In any event, how in the world could Rawat's inscrutable ranting encourage excellent team work?  I can't imagine a comparable situation with your band where you just shout at them for hours, they don't understand you but like the pretty pictures and you've accomplished something.  That was a foolish analogy.

Judging the trainings by only seeing what M said is like trying to make sense of a phone call when you can only hear one person talking. Impossible. But that said, yea, he gives them stick. Just seeing his outburts on their own makes them seem, well, dispreportionally one sided.

Oh come off it! What?  You know damn well that you don't have to hear anything that's being said to him before, during or after his rants to understand them.  It's not as if premies are "giving him stick" too and we're only hearing one side of an animated argument.  You know that all they're doing, those premies in attendance, is sitting there unctiously and quitely trying to please him, even as he screams and yells at them.  It's called servility.  Look it up.

But being strong, the leader has to be. It's the same as any training situation, the first rule is...be straight talking with the trainees. I would have been saddened and disillusioned if I had seen M being Mr sugar and sweet, pouring false and flattering confidences onto the participants. That would have been a great worry. I have been in circumstances similar to the trainings with him and watched him roast people. Found it highly amusing because he was listening to such utter crap from them and his answers were totally appropriate for that situation. So no, the trainings didn't alter my image of him. I'm sure the people at Deca saw similar behaviour - when your team is working on a jetliner, you don't arse about, one misplaced bolt can mean life or death.

How can you say Rawat's simply straight talking when you've already admitted you can't understand what he's saying?  You're a real piece of work and not in the slightest to be taken seriously. 

 It's important to remember that many complete idiots became pwk, people with serious agendas and ambitions which had nothing in common with enjoying K or helping spread it around. These people are useless for such teams and I believe should be rightly weeded out. That's all a training is about, bringing the right people up to scratch and getting rid of the unsuitable ones.

I guess the unsuitable ones would be the ones who didn't understand what their great, powerful leader was saying even though he was screaming it at them, huh?  That would seem to be you.  I wonder what Rawat really thinks about you if he's ever thought about you at all.  Don't you?

Some people thought they were attending an inspiring spiritual awareness primer that would leave them high and mighty, perhaps.

They got a shock! .......

You're a toady for someone you don't even understand.  It's amazing how just plain idiotic that looks.

Just saw the news of the shooting of Dimebag Darrel (lead guitarist with Pantera). Bloody hell, some mindless fuck decides Darrel was responsible for breaking up the band so he walks onstage and shoots him dead.

You mean the guy was guilty of mindless hero worship?  Hey, I hear ya'! 

That's the kind of shit I worry about in today's world, not people like M who are trying to focus on the beneficial effects of self awareness in the individual.

How do you know what he's trying to focus on?  You can't understand him!
