* Life is very complex, more so than we admit.

* All of our actions have unanticipated consequences.

* We bear a moral obligation to take our positions tentatively, with humility in the light of our ignorance.

* Short-term and long-term values are often different, often contradictory.

* Uncertainty can be reduced but there is always a cost.

* It is desirable to reduce uncertainty – but not to eliminate it.

Lokesh says, “I try to remain flexible, which includes changing my mind every once in a while.”

Flexible just doesn’t mean what I thought it did is all I can say.
Flexible actually means inflexible.
Sorted.

I was told once by a Lao Tsu dwelling resident that a tall guard who also became famous, once broke a woman’s leg with a karate kick of jealous rage. I actually know who this person was, and so will never support the view that some people with pokey glaring eyes are anything but nutcases.

Osho had plenty of nutcases around him. He thought it was fun. But he also tried to clear up some of the mess that poor judgement caused. I learnt that Osho loved people to assert themselves in spite of him, not because of him. But in a decent way. Not everyone got the decent part.

Law of unintended consequences:

“Prohibition”, intended to suppress the alcohol trade, drove many
small-time alcohol suppliers out of business, consolidating the hold
of large-scale organized crime over the illegal alcohol industry.”

“The War on Drugs”, intended to suppress the illegal drug trade, has
driven many small-time drugs dealers out of business, consolidating
the hold of large-scale organized crime over the illegal drugs
industry.”

“The introduction of rabbits into Australia for sport led to an
explosive growth in population, and led to rabbits becoming a major
pest in Australia.”

“Blowback describes the phenomenon of supporting a foreign regime or
terrorist entity, on the principle that your enemy’s enemy is your
friend, only to have it attack you, often with the weapons and
resources you gave it.”

Flexible, in my view, means intelligence.
Definitely, we have to be flexible!
Thanks for the remark, McLoke. XX
