I know I cannot answer for M or any of the "decisionmakers" but I know that I felt ..at that time... having felt that I was ahead of the curve when it came to where M and the organization and the premies "needed" to be... i.e. quit the religion and just offer the dam knowledge...and feeling that premies needed to get on with their life.... and just enjoy K and enjoy living life....and not recalling exactly when and where I saw passages... but I felt there was a part of me that was saying "smugly" that "most of us knew the truth and it's OK to disguise it in the form of a more digestable package! The other part of me was questioning why, if giving K was the answer, why had M eliminated the initiators? Why was M the only one that was to give Knowledge? Where were the efforts to promote and advertise K? How come less and less where actually attending programs? I knew then that M had taken a wrong turn in propogation. I also saw that the premies at the time were "neutered" from being able to speak about K and express to others why this was worth pursuing! This puzzled me... although still a part of me ... the apologist in me, rationalized it by saying "oh, well... the premies must not have a good understanding of what K was" even though many had had this K for over 10 years. (Remembering gurucharanand telling me that after 10 yrs you start to understand what K is all about). I saw then that this was not what I had originally gotten involved with M or K for ...I would have to pass on including myself in any more of the situation. Yes I saw M a few more times... when it was convenient for me... and each time saw that the premies involved were not growing or evolving... and even worse they began to look haggardly, sickly and certainly not filled with joy as I recall many felt before. Like a defeated boxer... starry eyed and woozy yet just hanging in there ... going through the motions but empty of heart. I even asked one of my "old" friends, "why are you still doing this? It's apparent you aren't enjoying it anymore!" I got no answer. I guess for many ... defeat is a hard lesson to learn and having invested so much time etc perhaps there really is no turning back for some. I still wish them the best and sincerely hope that they too recognize that life has more to offer than the rituals of practising K and waiting for M to do something... anything! For me ... when spreading knowledge took a back seat ... so did I.

Just my 2 cents here!
