Each and every new person that receives Knowledge becomes a challenge. Every act and success story by the "cult" must be attacked and denigrated. This is an ongoing battle, they have to continue their attack, because by doing so they are able to sustain their "righteousness". The ones that need to be considered moribund is the "ex-premie movement". I mean, you can count them with the fingers of what? three hands?Are you paranoid or what Ya ?
Please take a deep breath and repeat after me:
"The Ex-Premie Movement is so infintessimally SMALL and MORIBUND that it is not going to be of any threat whatsoever - I can breathe normally - I can R-E-L-A-X"
For as you so rightly say..very few people are attacking the cult. So why get in such a frightful righteous spin over it all? Also there are plenty of small movements that exist, like for example the Berkshire Hedgehog Racing Club. So why be concerned with the particular moribundity of EPO? (I suppose that is the embodiment of whatever you consider the 'ex-premie movement' ). EPO is a dying threat.. why be in the least concerned?
Seriously though, I don't think that the ex-premie movement you abhor is really such an ongoing thing as you maybe imagine. I think the EPO website is just something a few ex-premies felt they needed to do and now it's kind of done - they've got if off their chests - it's been done with anger, confidence and honesty (all those things I think) and people HAVE moved on. I don't see people withdrawing their contributions. People can make of it what they will. If anything premies shouldn't consider it a threat to Rawat's work but maybe more of a natural consequence of the huge dysfunction that premies exersized in the past -that would be honest. Otherwise just put it down to being another example of the way premies got it wrong, miss the point and screw things up for dear old M if that's what you truly believe. But if you think it's a dying 'moribund' thing surely just forget about it anyway. Also I bet a lot of the people who post here are kind of sick of it and sort of agree with you that it can be a bit of an obsession. I think that too - which is why I haven't posted here for ages. I just like an argument and I guess folks like you tempt me to waste my time exercising a little thought on a subject I have some experience and opinions on.
BTW I think that the critics you really need to watch out for in future are not the Apostates but a 'darker' force. I think that if TPRF's efforts really catch the public's attention it may well not always be so easy to control what is asked and said about him by the press etc . We'll just have to wait and see. How big is this thing going to get?
