Your post is far too long-winded to respond to it properly, so if you don't mind I'll just react. There is no dialogue when one party insists that the terms of dialogue include the presumption of one party having superior, and in fact unimpeachable knowledge or information. Ah, a subtle maneuvering to that high-ground you claim I fanatically try and protect. Look, the presumption of superiority is the very basis for argument. We are both as preoccupied with our own argument as the other, and therefore to expect real dialogue is naive. I gave up on that long ago with you guys. My question to you Jonx is this - what price are you willing to pay for this gorgeous vision? Is any price worth it? Is insanity an acceptable price to pay? Separation from the self is the cause of insanity. The self is beyond your “cool flood of reason”, and sadly, reason has the potential to only separate one further. Is delusion an acceptable price to pay? Is the destruction of conscience okay with you? Is the complicity in an immoral enterprise an acceptable price? Have you always been so sanctimonious? How ever you would love to stereotype me, I am a healthy, responsible, positive, and down-to-earth person. You are the one I would argue who is wrestling with the above. For me, helping others find a source of peace not tainted by the comings and goings of this world is the most moral thing I could think of doing. You may downplay its impact, but I see the awakening in a person of the awareness of self extremely important to harmony being asserted on this planet. If all you have to offer are painfully rational and well-metered ideas then you’ll forgive me if I politely carry on feeling good. Does nothing really matter in this world because its all illusion anyway, and all these allegations against Maharaji are just the expression of "mind" trying to lure you away from the pure and restorative beauty that is Maharaji and "Knowledge" and his noble mission? What illusions of cognitive brilliance you must be living under? Sorry, you’re trying far too hard. In short, is shame nothing more than bourgeois vanity? That tops it mate. You are really full of yourself! That has absolutely no meaning or relevance beyond sounding clever.
