Call that “easy”?!
More like a recipe for utter disaster….

Never heard of this until now, Vartan. Could you explain more about compartmentalisation, please?

Yes, I was reading about that recently, he says that he looked up and paid for access to online child porn sites to prove that banks were helping to ‘serve’ such sites, not for personal gratification.
Also, he […] -

Well, that’s a relief anyway!

But crying profusely at Billy Graham meetings isn’t necessarily evidence of “profundity”, Roman. Especially in the case of the man who indulged himself in it six times.
That last bit should perhaps read, “People […]

Ok! I asked in order to see if the roots of your anti-authority/institutions/government stance might possibly be in an unhappy past. But apparently, they’re not!

May I ask, please, Preetam, a personal question?
What was/is your relationship with your family like, especially with your father?
And how about your school – what was that like?
-
satyadeva commented on the post, Journalism in Sannyas, on the site sannyasnews 11 years, 6 months ago
Ok, I can go with that, Preetam.
Where I differ with you is re what we’ve discussed earlier today.

satyadeva commented on the post, Journalism in Sannyas, on the site sannyasnews 11 years, 6 months ago
Which is what, Preetam, please?

It doesn’t even have to be war, Preetam. Isn’t virtual civil war bad enough?
The point I’m making is that before you start imagining how wonderful it’s all going to be when the big, bad, evil ones and their […]

You’re a fool, Preetam, if you imagine the transformation you yearn for will emerge from the utter chaos you seem to be inviting, without severe pain and suffering, on a massive scale.

Sure, Preetam, except New York last week was suffering a natural disaster, not the irreversible collapse of its whole political and socio-economic framework.
You really seem to have no clue, as I said, about the […]

“Celebrating”? – More like chaos, confusion and social and economic breakdown, you mean!
Great, of course, if you fancy a spot of virtual civil war, riots, crime and anarchy on the streets…
And how soon do […]

“The private Osho wasn’t the public Osho.”
Interesting statement, Vartan. Although I guess that would be true of many public figures (and non-public ones too, ie most people).
But could you explain in more detail, please?

Interesting point there, Frank, re the “shame” of the Navajo poet. Realising his personal limits when confronted with the vast universe out there would be a way of getting his little ‘personal self’ in […]

But it’s not about “holding onto a mental image” at all, it’s about understanding the damage that’s done to oneself (and others) and catching the moment when that stuff’s about to raise its ugly head…Otherwise, […]

No, it doesn’t, Frank, ‘pure’ is not part of ‘puritan’ at all (there’s no ‘e’ in ‘puritan’ or ‘simply’, is there?). As I suspected, you ‘simply’ can not see straight….
-
satyadeva commented on the post, The Myth of the Positive, on the site sannyasnews 11 years, 6 months ago
Use a bit of common sense, perhaps, Frank, and substitute ‘simply’ or ‘sheer’ for “pure”, as in ‘simply emotion’, or ‘sheer emotion’. Might be more useful than trying to attach a convenient label – “puritan” – to […]

Perhaps a major problem of human beings is that they insist on viewing their destructive emotions as valuable, important – as essential components of their self-created ‘identity’, in fact.
Why do you imagine the […]

satyadeva commented on the post, The Myth of the Positive, on the site sannyasnews 11 years, 6 months ago
Well, I’m not contesting the existence of emotions, Frank!! Why, I even recall ‘having a few’ myself – before I ‘saw the Light’, of course…But even you, surely, would find it difficult to deny that some are […]
