Then there would be dead animals
in the national park Yala, about
which I was speaking. But as there
was no dead animal found, the animals
had indeed been interested to live.

As usual you claim to understand
and that everything is simple.
And as usual you miss totally.
This attitude of believing to
know but in reality knowing far
less than "normal" people (or animals
for that argument) is typical of
Sannyasins - it's the result of Oshos
teaching technique to blow up the ego
with his lectures.
I hope that you have at least a satellite
supported navigation system in your taxi,
because you would certainly land in Pune
if someone wants to go to the Frauenkirche.
Ali, your stubbornness and cantankerousness
hinders your natural intelligence to function.

your (thank godness) rare postings have become
more and more stupid.

Re: OSHO EXPLAINS THE COMING CRISIS ?
Words and ideas and opinions are like dry leafs on water.
They swirl around, gather in one corner, form faces of
animals or men, pile up on one spot, depart from each other
in another. Some form BIG LETTERS, some form small hearts.
And in this corner of the river a lot of turn-out pages
from books have also accumulated. Upstream, many years
ago an old Indian used to throw leafes into the river
to show his children how the flow of the water determines
where they would move to. Now those leafes are printed into
many books, and the children use to rip out pages, throw
them at each other or sit at the river bank and dream about
their Daddy while they copy his movements.
Dry leaves, paper pages, and old shoe now and then -
whatever it is, the flow of the water determines where
they finally end. Veet Tom, when he gave you the name
"Beyond Old Shoe", do you really think, he meant YOU,
old leather?
He meant the flow, which carries you.
Do you think, when some leaf travels from one heap to the
other, that an exchange has happened? That your heap of
dry leafes turns into the flow, because a page was added
to it, where the old guy had spoken about "The Flow",
had added great leafes to the river many miles upstream?
Time to quote, time to add some leafes.
You all here love to be quoted, don't you?

Funny, Goofey,
when you talk about anything positive, it is YOU,
your quest, your enligtenment etc.
Otherwise it's not you, it's something you want to
get rid of, it's the "falsity of the self", like
"Mom, Mom! I didn't do it! Neighbors cat was it!"
Man, if you are not your self, then who should be it?
Bhagwans main technique with people like us was it,
to blow up the ego, the self, to such dimensions
that we could really not bear it any longer.
Well, you seem to be a tough enough guy to go on for ever...
Have fun!
And take a break now and then from your quest...
It's good to be persistant. But it's also good
to distinguish between wall and door. Especially

Re: [°-:)] quackers!
George,
> Christian is a phoney substitute for spiritual growth and
> if you are still into that then you are dreaming.
Such a short sentence and what a long life lies in it!
So you have grown (or are even grown up?) spiritually.
And that not only phoney, but sincere, deep, really
... whatever your opposite of phoney might be.
Or haven't you ever thought about that "silent" might
be the right opposite to "phoney"? Have you?
I don't mean the Osho "silence" - tenthousand raising their
arms and shouting "YAHOO!!!". No, I just mean ...............
But then, you would not call it spiritual growth, I bet,
shrinkage, yes, but growth? And you would not boast about
it, would not be proud about it, presumably.
This "growth"-idea is a concept of the mind. Even spirituality
had to be marketed and sold to the mind, so some unknown
positive thinker must have come up with the concept of
"spiritual growth" - like the entrance-sign to the Dachau
concentration camp says "Work makes free".
There is no such thing as "spiritual growth". The only
thing possible is probably "ego shrinkage". But - would
we have gone there, if it was clear for us, that we were
going to become less, going to get less when we accepted
the Name and the Mala? Would we? Satyananda perhaps, cause
he was giving up much when he stayed in Poona right from the
very beginning. But we - you and me - would we?
Satyananda lets somebody say in one of his books about
"spiritual growth" (in an interview with a Commune member):
"Yes, it was clear to me, that I would loose everything over time -
everything. Everything, which defines me as an Ego. It was clear
to me, that I would loose my past, my masks, my personality,
my Ego. So, naturally, I often trembled with fear."
Why did Satyananda had had that printed?
Because he was experiencing the opposite?
> Christian is a phoney substitute for spiritual growth
> and if you are still into that then you are dreaming.
The "growth" seems to be your focal point, george.
But you are right: if one is still into that, then
he is dreaming. Be he Christian or Jew or whatever.
And especially if he is a Sannyasin.
Similiar:
> You can play around with your little concepts of this and that
> and what ever but that will not make you enlightened.
So you are enlightened. How else would you know what it was?
And not only that, you also know what makes one enlightened
and what not. A happening, which the old wise men describe as
"un-caused" and "un-causable", and you know how to make it.
Well, to be linguistically correct:
you said you know how NOT to make it.
Plausible. But false.
Paper-Tiger doesn't stop a forest fire.
I think, that was enough to show my point, that the Sannyas-
believes are not more intelligent than the Christian ones.
To the Christian's credit I must say: their master is dead
for 2000 years by now. Their master's words have not been taped
or printed in original. It's natural, that they miss a little,
go astray here and there. But the Sannyasins?
We even believe that we are not believers. What a trip!
And mock about the Christians for following a dead master,
celebrating dead ceremonies, and believing truth can be
contained in a book. While we think we can contain truth
in our mind. And think we are better. And subconsciously,
deep down, think that we know what enlightenment is.
Only because we have heard the word so often. Same with
the word "energy" or "silence" or - beware - "meditation".

It's your mind which is in
fighting mood, hence you
will have to handle it.
For years and years by now I've mainly been in a similiar situation,
first defending my little personal self-image, as if it was something
valuable, later being direct and upsetting to anyone coming along. You
cannot imagine how it feels, when this is slowly, slowly passing away

Re: [°-:)] welcome (partly) in reality, Valerie
Valerie said:
> i've pretty much noticed that everyone thinks i'm a TROLL;
You behaved pretty like it. I thought and still think, that
this was just a phase of strong and illogical and unsocial
expression - which is regularily triggered by Kundalini
beginning to raise. This way Energy starts to clean the system
from "educated" behaviour-patterns (like having to be friendly,
having to answer when asked something etc.). At the same time
the unsocial behaviour will get negative responses from
others, thus the social-dependence (ego) is reduced, too.
Later you have the unsocial beaviour at your fingetips should
you feel the need for it, but are no longer reduced to only that.
So don't be astonished if it comes again in certain situations
or towards certain people; it may then go away as fast as it
comes. The overall, final result is more freedom for you and others.
A "broader spectrum of expression" so to say.

welcome (partly) in reality, Valerie
valerie, I read from you:
> ANY "mentors" around?
> because I most certainly need one
> (in case no one notices).
Interesting. The moment I started reading your posts
I recognized, that you should better be left alone
though Kundalini raising symptoms where allready all
over your posts. Perhaps you had had enough of therapy
for the rest of your lives? .o)
Now you say, you "most certainly need a mentor". Hhhmmm.
What an u-trun. So the Energy has become stronger?
That's good IMO.
Too strong for you to handle it?
That's not so good
(I mean trying to "handle" it).
And what should this mentor do then?
Help you control it again?
That would be as if a midwife helps you to push back the
baby instead of helping you to deliver it.
In some early stages of pregnancy that might be
the right thing to do, but in your case I think,
that might be a little late, don't you agree?
And how should this "most certainly needed" mentor
help you? If you (or: as you?) allready know what you
need and what to do, then she/he is not needed.
First and last of all make yourself ready for it.
From my experience I know, that sincery seeker get
sicere helpers, egocentric meet egocentric ones,
egoistic meet egoistic and stubbornness meets
stubborness. What might be yours like?
Also from my experience I'd say:
Look at yourself, prepare yourself as best as you can
by being honest to yourself about where you stand
and what you know and what not. Ruthless honest towards
and about yourself.
And prepare for somebody else deciding what you need.
During the sessions with my spiritual friends (there
were two, first a female, later a male), she/he decided
when I needed to go to the toilet or drink some water.
And of course they decided when the session would end -
not seldomly when the sun came up again after a long,
intense night.
You think you could manage to create that much TRUST?
The more you can trust the more trustworthy will be the
trainer, whom you finally get.
Ah, yes: as soon as it's decided who trains you
(decided not by you, but by the trainer with your
allowance), then trust only this one trainer.
Listen only to this one person. Only one. Not two.
Don't even trust your own mind,
if it's against the trainer. because part of her/his
job will be to bring up the suppressed stuff in you,
and this Pandora-stuff will influence your judgement
immensely (and unnoticable for you).
Good luck

"... dull ... but ... authentic ..." ?
And all that under the cover-up of a "may be" ?
From this paragraph alone it can be seen, that
your social/academic training covers at least 80%
of your personality. And that you have not experienced
a state of 100% authenticity in your life for a long
time, otherwise you would not dream about putting
"dull" and "authentic" into one and the same sentence.

The Tao Te King makes only sense in areas
where personal experience and personal

To all members:

Nobody has ever been born for another one.

pissed for another one, fucked for another one.
Nobody has ever lived for another one.
Nobody will die for you, when your time has come.
STOP COPYING THE PAINTINGS OF OTHERS!

Hotten-Totten! White-Robe-Brothers! Tax-Payers!
Right-Lane-Drivers! Copy editors! N0by-list quoters!
Talk! Talk! Talk! Copy! Copy! Copy! Quote! Quote! Quote!

Books are very helpful. As can be maps.
The (surface) question is:
Where do you want to be tomorrow?
And another (the basic) question beneath it is:
where are you now?
If we agree, that the present state of the human is
unawareness, do you think, the human is able to
pick the right books, read them in the right way
apply this knowledge consistantly in his life?
Obviously the next step after becoming interested
thru books or tapes would be (and must be?)
a personal encounter, isn't that logical?
And as just one encounter is not enough:
a personal relationship is needed. Roger?
Something where you cannot escape any moment
into your old unawareness. Got it?
Intense enough to make you change you behaviour
- even your unconscious behaviour. ???
I have heard:
A friend of mine went to a meeting with Paul Lowe
in Munich and asked him a question like "it's soo
difficult to stay aware the whole time..."
And Paul answered "If we were alone in a closed room
and I put a gun at your head, ready to shoot you,
wouldn't you be aware each and every second?"
Would you be ready to go into that room with Paul
and the gun? Really?
REALLY?
DO YOU REALLY WANT TO KNOW SOMETHING ABOUT MEDITATION,
BIG MOUTH?
You are in Japan, there is not a single Zen Monastery
near the place where you live, hence you must ask
questions about meditation via email to people
sitting in Munich?
> [about Osho books] You are almost right, i feel frustrated
> but not felt stupid yet with the books!! but you are doing it..
Exactly.
> i feel frustrated and stupid only when i talk with you...:)
I'm doing as much I can do over this very indirect
communication channel. But that will be not enough
for you.
What was the title of Osho's last book?
How often have you read it? Did you read it at all?
And if so, did you recognize, that he was aware,
that he shall die within months, when he gave that
lectures?
If you were a master with many disciples
and you knew that soon you would die,
what would you do, about what would you talk?

Re: Fwd: Ramrod recognizes an awakened hara
N0by,
there is no need to describe an "awakened" hara in any way.
First of all the effects are so strong and so "bodily",
that nobody is probably ever going to mis-take it for
(say) the usual "spiritual feelings" after intense
meditations, which are often just phantasies, mild illusions
or projections of religious/spriritual concepts.
To mistake it with anything else is only possible, if the
Hara is not totally open i.e. if it's just a little open.
Most probable explanation then might be some "strange sort of
illness" - because Hara-opening is a psychosomatic phenomenon, the
body is an integral part of it. But when it's really open, the
energy moves your body. For example, there is no room for wishy-
washy explanations, if the hand of an invisible Giant had just
thrown you on the earth and keept you there for some undefined time,
while your spine is electrified joy and the body shakes all over, as
if every cell of it has gone to the dance club.
Secondly, up to now I've never heard or read it to be called "Hara
awakening". That's not how I would describe the feeling and that's
not the energetical happening. "Opening", yes, or "breaking
through", yes, or "removing blocks", "activating the
energy", "falling into the energy" or even "awakening the energy"
yes. If Ramarshi calls it "awakening of the Hara", that's fine with
me - but misleading for people who have not yet experienced it
themselves. The Hara is just like a door, when you are awake, you
open it and step thru. But the door itself is neither "awake", nor
was is "asleep" before - it was just closed/blocked.
Third: the need for explanations vanishes. Open Hara means your
energy goes more into the belly and less into the head than before.
So how to explain a thing which takes away our wish for
explanations? And why explain it then? And who would want to explain
something which is a personal experience?
Ever heard some girls talking about how an orgasm feels like?
How to get there - yes, that's a practical question. But then she
either knows or she doesn't. Explaining it is the consolation price.
Ramarshi is said to have written:
> .....
> An awakened hara you notice when your eyes feel as if they

> while reading this mail. My eyes are feeling that way just now.

Re: IDEOLOGY
Systems of ideas can be easily transmitted in our
"modern" societies. With words, books, lectures,
with reading, listening, learning - no problem.
The whole society trains and supports it.
Science and technology have flourished thru
systems of ideas. We mock about unscientific
superstitions and misunderstandings,
especially if they are "emotionally biased"
(which seems to be our modern formulation
of "devilish").
We don't mock about scientific superstitions.
Especially the believe that systems of ideas
are the reality, is our modern, widespread

We are "un-emotionally biased", we believe
in words and ideas only if they don't disturb
our emotional status quo. And most of us have
lost the taste for experiences in the inner,

As usual everything as I see it:
Graeme, you wrote:

Going there is the price asked by existence.
And having it as #1 on my shopping list
is the neccessary (but not neccessarily
sufficient) prerequisite to reach it.
These price tags are not made by me,
that's just how the things are.
Our arguments, quarrels, jealousy or competition
can change them as much as the pope's prayers
can change the gravitation constant.
And: there is no second hand copy of the path
or map to it. There is no tape for sale with the
true sound of running water. There is no CD available
with the divine music in the pines. Only individual
experiences and insights can be shared in individual
dialogues. No copy. Lectures ánd books are mostly
useless because they don't create a dialogue.
Osho's lectures were only true maps (at most)
for those few who have been personally present
at the Ashram when the lecture was spoken.
For all others they are nice stories about
other people's maps and journeys.
There is no copy possible from Michael or Graeme,
no Xerox-copy of an alarm-clock will wake me in time,
and no photo of a Zen-stick can stop my circles
of thoughts. Only a real and alive man or woman
with a real stick in the hands could do that -
if at all.
Individuality has a divine copy protection,
and this begins on the first step of the
path to it allready.
Sorry Graeme, but your A-Z is totally
outdated. The London you visited does
no longer exist. The Michael who wrote
about the five steps is also no longer
exactly there as he was it some days ago.

The common pattern is: upsetting and provocing.
The real question during upsetting and provocing is: are we

Or do we use our individual talents to defend our old ways

In my words: are we ready to go on or stuck?

Re: to Michael
I once saw a show in TV where they asked pedestrians
for the way to some famous spot of the city.
The reporter had a large pattern for sewing, showed it to
everybody, pointed to it as if it was a map and
asked helplessly "escuse me, where is the cathedral?"
or such.
Graeme, if you ask me, don't be surprised,
if I try to take away your "map".
But then you become angry.
OK then, let's see on your map where we are:
> I ... thought
> ... this is ... confirmed
> You ... little GURU
> How cute!
> Anyway DISMISSING the POV of others
Your point of view may be a collar seem
and you ask for directions to the cathedral.
In such a situation get ready to have your POV
dismissed. Or continue following the plait down
to the left pocket. It's as simple as that.
I was not dismissing you at all, but rather
tailored my answer specifically to you.
Let's see what made you angry:
> with a cursory ' Reality does not have to make sense '
> can only be described as empty flowery rhetoric
This pill was too bitter to swallow?
Rhetoric is empty? Flowery is a deception?
The ultimate deception is to believe one's own
mind-set, trust only one's own past and judgement.
Then learning ceases.
> If there is something to beware, it is in STRIVING
> to make sense of it all,
Absolutely. But my "sense" comes out of experience
and not of striving.
> and/or having a fixed and inflexible POV
> as a form of ATTACHMENT = BELIEF.
This is also true.
But are you sure, you see me?
> Btw when I ask for directions in a city,
> the last thing I want to do is bump into
> some nihilistic non-dual idiot with a smile,
> whose reply is that ' there is no place

In this feeling, in this experience lies the
first little knowledge about where your present
position is, Graeme. Just look at your feelings.
This is an inner journey. I may be whatever I
may be, the object of investitagtion is you
(to you). But it becomes difficult , because at the
same time you are the subject of investigation
also. Hence systematic errors are inescapable
and a self-critical attitude is a must.
A good start for me (thanks for the teaching, Kali)
was the question: "What do I feel?"
Instead of thinking "I am pissed/angry/happy"
the sentences "I feel pissed", "I feel angry",
"I feel happy" are a better start. Because they
are a step into somewhat more objective POV -
neither insensible nor emotionally too much laden.
So you feel angry when I say "nowhere to go" ?
So did I, when Bhagwan wrote that to me (and still
do now and then when that idea comes).
You feel cheated, when I say "nothing to achieve" ?
So did I, and still do now and then.
It looks as if we bring our expectations into
the subject. Instead of looking unbiased at what
is, we want our wishes and expectations to be
fullfilled.
But our wishes and expectations - expecially the
subconscious ones - come out of past insufficiencies.
Hence we perpetuate earlier traumas as life-dramas.
> Do you think there is some sense in cities?
There is no sense. We create it. Man attaches
sense to things and situations.
It's our curse and freedom to do so.
You came here to see the cathedral, don't you?
That's the sense of the city. Perhaps.
For you perhaps.
> Do you think ' making sense ' is alien

Do you think, going beyond that is not
human too?

But not a condition sine qua non.

NO. Part of where humans START,
not where they finally may go to.

Fri Oct 15, 2004 9:09 am
Noby,
> ... quarrels spice up the soup!
Time for a slight change.
As I see it:
Phase 0 - business as usual
Everything is normal, Money is spent and earned,
religion is for the masses, masters are far away
in India or Zen-monasteries. Truth is transmitted
in newspapers or TV.
Phase 1 - questions
One gets curious, visits a master, reads a book,
asks questions.
Phase 2 - quest
The Master's Energy has caught. Person becomes seeker,
Truth becomes quest. Love is everywhere, development
is happening, the world is full of wonders.
Many (most?) seekers are stuck in this phase nowadays.
Some even believe this is the final stage, they "got it",
are allready enlightened etc. Flower everywhere
(and false gurus also).
Phase 3 - quarrel
The unvisible energy around the master has done it's job.
Individuality has grown and the inner Buddha is creating
antisocial attitudes to support that process. As the
spiritual realm has become the seeker's "family" in
phase 2, the actions and attitudes may even be (seemingly)
against the spiritual path itself - though they are part of it.
Not few seekers turn against their former master - also seemingly -
(and thus prove that he has done his job). Others just
do the opposite, and become vehement advocates for their
master - all depends on the individual soul and the game she is
playing. A common factor is, that the seeker creates situations
for himself, where he doesn't get support and acknowledgement.
The N0by-List is a focus point for seekers in this phase.
Again there is the danger to remain stuck here. Because one
is stronger now in his individuality than in earlier phases,
the chance to "be right" or "to remain untouched and cool"
is seductive.
To avoid this pitfall, it's important not only to upset,
but to accept being upset. Not only hitting - but accepting
and being open to be hit, staying open when hurt. Jesus'
saying about the other cheek is for seekers in this phase.
The gems of this phase are not the moments when one wins,
but when one looses and is hurt.
Phase 4 - starting to give in
When the seeker has learned to accept that he is in
God's (or his own Buddha's) hands and that the negative
situations are to clean and clear his consciousness,
the next phase can start. Now the Buddha can really
become nasty towards the ego. Karma can now be balanced.
And of course the Buddha determines what and how much
is to be balanced and not the ego.
It is not uncommon, that illnessnes manifest here
(like nearly loosing one's eyesight, or gettinng broken
limbs in self-created accidents when one has not respected
the eyes and bodies of others in earlier lifes).
It becomes "dark" for the seeker - only now and then a
light moment happens - just the minimum needed to keep
the seeker on track and going. Yet everything is a blessing,
but this standpoint is unavailable for the seeker (otherwise
Karma-balancing would not be possible).
The story about walking through the woods at night
without a light and only now and then a bolt of lightning
gives some light on the path - that is a story about
this phase, like the saying about the "dark night"
etc. Many stories and talks about this phase are told
by the elders in the esoteric scene - because is this
phase any support and encouragement one can get is needed.
TRUST is needed (and missing) most in this realm.
Satyananda's comment about "who has never played with the
idea of suicide, whose path has not yet begun" speaks of
this landscape.
Phase 5 - the light at the end of the tunnel
When the individual Karma is partly balanced,
the egocentric viewpoints can be given up, and the
Buddha within gives the seeker small insights
and feelings about what is happening in his life.
Slowly, slowly, slowly the stress for the person
becomes less, life is more and more (consciously)
lived according to "thy will be done".
About further phases I cannot speak,
because I have no personal experience.
But according to the Elders there is
much, much more on the path.
N0by, you are the target of your own Buddha.
Don't run too fast in your verbal zick-zacks.
Let yourself be hit more. Don't win too many
fights.
With Love
Michael

Actually, Valerie, I found that outburst of you more substantial,

I happened to read. I said to myself: "great, finally she is

often just showed a link, or gave a single sentence, which
I couldn't apply to any of the other members. Pretty "airy",

Nope, she was not.
A very real danger in my old eyes, Valerie, is it, that the US-
American mindset is believing each and every bullshit which they see
in TV - especially if that seems to touch their fear of loosing
"security". But the USA itself is not respecting the security of
others very much (and that's probably why).
I say these things not to insult you, Valerie, but to provoke
you to open your eyes and ears a little more.
> Are you SO BLIND that only YOUR "teachings" of osho,

Truth matters to me, human values and rights.
Like - for example - respect towards provable facts
or towards people with different opinions. The latter
seems not to be your strength, Valerie, or am I wrong?
Fact is, the Oregon ranch was an esoteric school;
this has to be taken into account, when one looks
at the situations there. This has nothing to do with
MY "teachings" or MY experiences, it is just the
context one should not fail to take into account.
That many Sannyasins themselves seem to have forgotten it,
is no excuse for you, Valerie, to stay at the surface
and not look deeper.
> WHY do you perpetrate these LIES?
The story about poisoning was a lie, Valerie.
Hence if one of us is perpetuating lies, I'm sorry to say,

Such contamination could have occured where food handlers

Re: Editor Replies to Bodhidharma re the Sheela Saga (Pramartha)
N0by,

Who the heck is Pramartha anyway? Why do you compare
an awakened one with a spritual flatlander like Pramartha?
Are you still in Sannyas-politics, N0by?
Just a single look at the heading Pramartha used for his reply is
enough to see his state of mind:
"Editor Replies to Bodhidharma re the Sheela Saga"
1.) He is proud to be an editor, enjoys power games probably. Why else
should he define and name himself with the function of an editor?
Mr. Editor?
Mr. President?
Mr. War President?
Watch out! Here comes Mr. War Editor !!!
2.) At the same time he avoids the word "I" and "My". Looks like he
tries to give the impression to be a somewhat egoless soul.
3.) He is in politics - i,e, interested in what others think and say
about something, interested to influence the mind of the readers by
using emotionally laden words.
Sheela is not a saga, and the situation at Rajneeshpuram (for which
Sheela took the responsibility though it was a teaching for all of us)
- this teaching situation is either felt and experienced or not.
Either one gets it (and thus it falls off) or one misunderstands it
and then takes it "personally". Whatever - but it is never a saga. It
was real for us. It was something to FEEL, to EXPERIENCE and not
something to JUDGE or to THINK about.
With the word "saga" Pramatha tries to make Sheela's words unreal, put
them into the realm of fairy tales, science fiction and detective
stories. With the word "saga" Mr. War Editor avoids factual
confrontation with what Sheela has to say nowadays and escapes into
emotionally laden propaganda techniques.
Putting down Sheela's present statements, Pramartha misses again. He
would do better to listen to her, oppose her, if he feels like it,
shout, cry, meditate about it. But he chooses to dismiss it with the
cheap intellectual game to call it a "saga".
What a poor example of Sannyas prejudices and Sannyas conditioning!
He uses a spritual name for the games of his mind.
I know that state from personal experience, but that doesn't make it
any easier for me to see it in others - especially in so called
Seekers and Sannyasins. What a waste if one stays on this level!
But let's go back to what you wrote about your time at Rajneeshpuram,
N0by:
> .. i always felt these things as part
> of the EGO-reduction,
> part of the Master plan behind -
> and followed my heart to resist.
N0by, N0by, tssst, tssst. I know it's quite common among Sannyasins to
call one's ego "my heart", but this is tooooo much even for an old
Sannyas-mind like mine. Much too much.
The master gave teachings and you "followed your heart" to resist
them? Ahem.
Lie as much as you want, but never believe in your own lies, N0by.
Because lies cost awareness. Twisting one's own reality just for the
sake of momentary relief is too expensive in the long run.
Better face it: you escaped from the teaching, N0by, escaped from the
dirty daily work in Rajneeshpuram into "meditation", for years you
escaped from accepting the hurt by blaming Sheela for the teaching you
got thru her. Not by her, mind you, but thru her.
And regarding Bodhidharma, you escaped from an email list under his
guidance into your own ideas of internet "freedom". Following "you
heart" to resist the teachings of awakened ones seems to be one of
your favourite sports, my friend.

Bullshit. What ya want? Support for your word games?
Well, if your words wouldn*t be an escape soooo often...

Re: art of expression in times of repression
There is nothing from my side to say about Bodhidharma's text - he can
do that himself much better. But there is much to say about N0by's
subject line:
"art of expression in times of repression"
That is the titel a newspaper writer may use.
A seeker would know, that repression comes from inside.
A seeker would have looked into himself and found the source
of any repression in his own psychic structures - which are
worldwide and in nearly everybody.
A seeker would not have blamed "the times" but only himself.
Nobody, you are playing the informed one.
But you know nothing if you dont't know yourself -
and that starts with looking at what you are doing.
For example (in the context of Bodhidharma's letter)
how you are talking about Sheela, how you continue
to blame her for your inability to accept the teaching
you received on the ranch many years ago.

you take off all your clothes and

Dear Doc Meme Pool
Hi Doc,
you project a lot. But your most prominent character symptom is your
inability to become simply angry at somebody. Obviously it does not
fit into your self-image to be angry or agressive. Only if that is
provoked in you (e.g. by insulting you or playing agressive), you
allow yourself to express anger - then in rationalized form, projected
unto the other. The other is the bad guy - you are just telling him
what he is.
Doc, you are a danger to the mental health of the human species.
And you are drowning soo deeply in your own suppressed stuff, that you
can't even recognize a theater play right in front of your nose. No
self-observation, no feeling, only steel mind - mostly ice-cold, but
sometimes hot, shining red steel.
Doc, it was a pleasure, to mirror you.
With deepest compassion and best wishes.

Hi Doc,

Not at all, Doc. I just pick up what you say and show it's extracts -
as I found them meaningful and essential - in my answers.
Communication is an exchange and recreation of meaning, taking place
in a mutual process. So I quote you as I understood you. I don't quote
you to copy you.

Exactly, what would you expect? A photocopy? Or an exact replica of
your meaning? Do you need such a high level of acknowledgement in your
communication partner, that you enter fighting mode if it's not as you
expected it?

Meaning 1) using your language and 2) your value system?
I'm doing that. The question is only how much difference can you
tolerate. The more differences we can accept, the higher can be the
level of possible exchange. 100% conformance = zero difference = zero
exchange. Only infants need near 100% conformance.

Yes, I provoked you. That's a good technique to get honest answers
quickly IMHO. But your reply was your's. You could have laughed,
ignore me, provoke back, fall in love ... the whole universe of human
interactions are available to you. And you chose a mixture of being
offended and ambition and fighting (thru personal re-insult). This
(and your recent complaint about my "misquotes") gave me the
information, that "aristocratic intellectualism" must be part of your
self-esteem.

Please don't play these new-age group-therapy games. It's boring. Why

play these games, as if we all are part of a big self-healing therapy
group. We might all be that, but you play the Doc, Doc.
> So I ask in return: Why do you see 'this' as a

Man, come on. I watched the list loosely before entering. You are the
first list-member I've ever seen, who wrote to the ISP of another
member to silence her. Just to give you an example of what you are
ready to do. If I provoke you, you would cut our communication,
because you wouldn't be able to take more (and between men of
undefined strength leaving the other alone is the programmed response
since the ice-age when it gets uncomfortable - with women there are
other means of problem-solution possible, like fucking or
overpowering). Now, again: you think, I don't see you correctly?
You are not yet boiling, but seething. My provocation is at the 3% to
5% level, but that's allready about 50% of what you can take IMHO.
This is my view, brother. Now argue, fight, play the innocent or play
the Doc. Ooops, sorry, that latter was too much provocation. And, yes,
ooops, sorry again, that sorry was another provocation etc. etc. etc.
The problem is: we are so deeply mis-used, mis-programmed by society
that we cannot stand even slightly different opinions about ourselves.
We need acknowledgement, love, attention, positive feedback - or else
we plunk the whole caboodle.

No. That question is part of the esoteric/spiritual meme nowadays. In

Yes, Doc. Does this knowledge free you from your memes? Or is it just
part of your meme? You know the meme I mean, is the one which contains
sentences like "my power is at my command", "MY dick, MY mind is the
BEST".
I have not said it yet, brother, but for me power is also something
which is stronger than I am, which guides and controls me.

That is my choice. An effective analysis must include all neccessary
details, man. You tried to make me jealous, and I haven't. I just
turned your statement around from "not with YOUR dick" to "with MY
dick". This is simple linguistic logic.
But as you insist on a complete analysis: You have not said "I fuck
her with MY dick" (allthough that is the linguistic deep structure
meaning) and instead projected it unto me.
Better?

This is statement B.
Let me introduce myself first.
membot (short for meme-robot):
A person whose entire life has become subordinated
to the propagation of a meme, robotically and at any
opportunity. (Such as many Jehovah's Witnesses, Krishnas
and Scientologists.) Due to internal competition, the
most vocal and extreme membots tend to rise to top of
their sociotype's hierarchy.
mechanic:
Someone whose occupation is repairing and maintaining
mechanical, automotive (i.e. self-moving) devices.
membot mechanic:
Someone occupied with repairing and maintaining membots.
Now let's look at the meme-defect.
Statement A and Statement B are opposite, yet applied
as if equal. Withing the meme to be applied (which is
undefined but can be assumed to be in the area of spirituality,
religion, inner science etc.) there is a core concept, which
says that the following pairs (for example) are existentially
opposite.
... buddha - ego
... consciousness - maya
... no-mind - mind
... Mind - mind
The latter pair applies - Mind with a capital M
against mind with a small m.
The right sides of these pairs of opposites don't know
anything about the left sides, a sleepy or egoistic
or "small" minded person may easily ignore the differences.
While the left sides are perfectly aware of both sides and
the different fruits they yield.
Bhikkhu Samahita, you failed, you just proved,
that your Bhikkus are initiated by the small mind
and not by the Mind. It would be right to
repeat your basic studies from the beginning.

Exactly that is the job of a trainer.
In the beginning. In the very beginning.
Later he will not describe, but simply
help to feel. And after that the trainer
may even try to bring the trainee away from
his feeling (If he doesn't succeed, he is happy).
Finally the trainer is no longer needed,
because then the trainee can piss for himself.
Now compare that with your attitude.
Obviously you hinder yourself immensely

Cost of spiritual training is covered by
universal laws of the Tao (because all
real trainers are employees of the Tao).
The price doesn't depend on the trainer,
but on the trainee (who has to learn that
she/he is part of the Tao).
Price is 100% (of the trainee),
result is 0% guaranteed (both meanings),
duration is unspecifiable.

Aha, guruship is IN in your value system

After some years in the eso-circus, one no longer
has any friends and is only phantasising about gurus.
I like Osho and I am grateful towards him;
the difference between your and my relationship
with Osho is only:
I have seen behind the fact, that he tricked me
(and not only me), and I see it as a neccessary part
of the job of a master to trick the trickser-ego.

that the trickser believes,

You are not very intelligent - average I'd say -
perhaps an IQ of 100 or little more or less.
That's a fact. An observable fact. Perhaps you
may even be only of the level of your president.
That's not a problem for me. But for you.
You try to be more intelligent, try to become
a teacher. Forget it. Teachers are born.
They often try to avoid it - to no avail,
but they never try to become it.
Only non-teachers want to become teachers.

You are projecting your state of mind unto me.

I am as you see me. But you see me according to your
feelings. And as these feelings (Indian inferiority complex)
are mainly unconscious, your remain unaware about
your emotional bias and take your vision for the

That's called projection of subconscious material -
and it can be seen in others, if they do it. Like
clear, colourless jelly flowing over their eyes,

Fact is, I simply played the Indian card,
to tickle this in the other Indian I spoke to.

Fuck your believe. Either you stand behind what you

or you are a believer.
Better to be totally wrong than to be a believer.
That's my believe.
You have been grown up in India. Hence you are
taking many things for real which others don't
- and vice versa. Same thing as personal subconscious,
but even more tricky (because so many people around
you take the same things for granted). Just compare
your views with the Japanese. Pay them some drinks
in the bar - then they will have to talk with you
out of sheer Japanese politeness (and you will have
to drink their drinks too).

Yesterday?
Yesterday an old Osho-priest visited The Ranch again
and wanted to have a look at all the 9999 places
where enlightenment happened (Kabir is late as usual).
So he decided to rent a horse and have a nice ride
on The Ranch.
"A horse is 50 bucks for the afternoon." said the
man at the horse-rental.
"Pheeui! That's rather expensive." said our Osho-priest,
who was more equipped with spirituality than with money
after his 30 years of God-realization, "What about that
donkey over there?"
"Oh, that's Sw. Don't Have Key, one of our oldest disciples.
After meditating on his name and the seventh chakra
for 12 years, he turned grey and grew those long ears.
Now he's serving us as a donkey. His price is 10 bucks.
But I must tell you, he's a little difficult to handle."
The priest became interested. "That means?"
"Well," said the dealer, "he starts slowly, when you say
''enlightenment'', runs as fast as he can when hearing
''Thank you Osho'' and he stops on the sound of
''self-projective spirituality''. "
"That's sounds great." said the priest, thinking about
the equation 50 - 10 = 40 saved bucks, "I take him."

It's allways the same with these pseudo-therapists.
As soon as one says something critical, they turn

Right, Mr. Asshole of God. You are beyond anybody's feeling,
Ram-Arshi, faaaar, far beyond.
> That was from me. I know it out of my own experience.
I happen to have the same experience. And I know many,
many other people who have similiar experience and
insights and feel no need to speak about with Osho-slang.
That's not the point. The point is, that Mr. God-Ass is
using Osho-talk and spirituality for his own ego, to
compensate his inferiority. Everything Ramarshi ever
experienced or heard or read, is used to blow up his
spiritual would-like-to-be therapist ego. That stinks.
And this critique has nothing to do with Osho or the
validity of any experiences. This critique has to do
with his inferior personaliy, how he acts, NOW and HERE.
Self-rigtheous asshole, who is incapable of looking
at himself and constantly escaping into critisizing
others instead.

Ramarshi,
if you are in need of somebody to talk to,
please don't pick me. If you want to make
advertisements for your point of view,
don't use me for an advertising pillar.
I know, I may look like one for the needy
eye, but I'm not.
I'm utterly bored by your theory - copying
Osho-lectures over and over again, like
> Laughter comes from No-Mind.
And mixing this with your spicy insults
or dogmatic constellation views
doesn't make it any more interesting.
When you talk about your global political
views, it sounds somehow natural.
Probably you have looked closer into some
of these social and political games.
But when you address people directly
you are miles off. I think you have
not yet encountered your own egomaniac view
of spiritual development - but that's your job,
I don't feel assigned to help you with
cleansing your personal mess (beyond a
friendly rememberance in the form of a good
beating now and then, that is).
> Kabeer, can you see the difficulty your running brain has?

> The real question is now:

> The answer is: Who cares about feelings?
Typical egocentric view. The spiritual ego
believes it can decide what it dreams.
That this is in itself The Dream, which Osho
gave you, is not going to enter ever into your
overstuffed brain, is it?
First cleanse yourself from the Osho conditioning,
before talking about "empty heart" and "new man" and
"buddha nature".
> ... that is the mind of an
> spiritual retarded Idiot.
Exactly.
> Osho: "Remember that you are not your body and not your
> mind, remember that you are a Buddha."
Dear Ego, dream that you are a Buddha,
imagine that you are a Buddha,
play that you are a Buddha.
Hear lectures that you are a Buddha,
read books that you are a Buddha,
fuck everybody as if God has installed
you as the World's most enlightened
tantra-master.
But take care of
a) not to come too close to a living Buddha
and b)
not to wake up the Buddha in you.
Or you are finished.
Two basic techniques to avoid that:
a) say "I love Osho soooo much, he is the
greatest Love of my life, he never died and will
never die in my heart"
b) pretend that you are it allready,
act as if you are it allready,
believe that you are it allready
(the Buddha, the New Man, the transcended personality)
And don't forget to criticize others;
the less you know yourself, the louder.
This will make you an even wiser man.
> Some what you write are moods, not feelings.
> Feelings are of the non empty heart.
> Moods are of the non empty soul.
How would YOU know, Ramarshi?
You are overflowing of Osho's
excrements each day.
> Acknowledgment is a mood, Boredom is a mood.
> And moods are closer to the center (Buddha nature) than feelings.
> Is the woman with you not a sannyasin? It seams she has emotional

Ramarshi, you have great talents.
Now even working
as a remote relationship counsellor?
But it's all words. ideas and words.
Concepts. Interpretations. Projections.
Gimme some feelings, come on, get angry,
boil a little or laugh or whatever.
But not this mindfuck day in and day out.
With these attitudes of yours, it's understandable,
that you feel lonesome and desparatedly need somebody
to talk with, because no normal man or woman is

Your Master talked to YOU by calling your
core "Suviro", which means "brave",
while you seem to think, he meant you
and it's meaning is "wise".
Masters use to give names about qualities,
which are burried under the layers of the
personality and have yet to be developed.
Anand Sudesh for example was given the name
"bliss" and then his personal initiation talk
was about misery, misery and misery.
Later he was called "Nobody" by Bodhidharma
and now his life is full of advertisements for
himself, his ideas and list. Mere coincidence?
My first thought when I received the name "life"
was "My God: am I that dead?". What was yours,
when Osho called you "brave"?

Re: Where have all the balls gone?
VeetTom, you have misunderstood me, I think.
Let's see where the differences are.
You wrote:
> Insights grow, at least for us male ones -
> that have to act like women, just to become
> real men ones and then again ... Just Great !
As opposed to what Osho said (also with your
words):
> Hey - Osho said ... 'we all had to be female,
> receptive and soft, and so on' ... End of quote
Do do see the difference?
Osho did not say "we all have to act...".
He said "we have to be..."
A man cannot be receptive and soft, if he is
not living 100% of his power, 100% of his emotions,
100% of his anger, 100% of his love.
Sensitivity, helplessness, openness, softness
can only be true to that degree, as the so called
"opposite parts" are also lived.
A man does not become open without living his power
a 100% - which is about 300% to 1000% of what the
society feels comfortable with. Three to ten times
more than what we allow ourselves to live.
A man cannot reach the inner, suppressed opposite -
the inner female - without going for it like a
man-iac with all his power and honesty and trust
and truth and heart. And those who power around
on the outside with words or ideas or fists or guns
are not the 100% types in my opinion.
Live functions out of opposites.
When a man goes with all his power for his
inner woman and finally she shows herself
again to him, his face will be flat on the ground.
Literally. That's the sure sign, that he
made contact again: if he MUST bow down.
If his body is pulled down as if the earth
was a magnet and he was a little piece of iron...
Then, over the years his inner woman and he
may melt into each other again, become one again.
Under the guidance of the inner female,
not according to what the male mind wants.
Then he is what he is - whole again -
and doesn't have to act it.
Everything else is mindfuck.
This whole "gee - look how
enlightened/developed/open/whatever I am"
- just mindfuck. Just invitations to get
started - at best.

I think, women are just a little more sane,
because they express their feelings a little more
in daily life. That's why there are less women
than men in this mental asylum. They are not
quite sooo ill on the average.
I myself have a wonderful very intelligent
female for partner. When she did read some postings
of this list, she said "Perhaps I might
know wether I like these discussions or not,
if only I could manage to understand what
they are speaking about."
I also know some very threatening men
(Bodhidharma and Michael Barnett for example) -
they are surrounded by all kinds of beautiful,
lovely, powerful and very female women.
So in short: if there were men here,
there would come more women also.
You know: I mean men not mind-fuckers.
But besides that men-women-relatonship in this
list, two more personal questions arose from
reading your text.
First:
Your spoke about your "male counterparts".
Why "counter"? Are you not a male too?
Second:
Have you not observed, that many women also tend
to chose partners, which they can easily handle?
Especially for long-term relationships, like marriage.
When I was young and needy, I tried to
please women. I must have been a terrible
bore then. Now I'm older and have given up.
That doesn't make me any more interesting,
I suppose, but gives me more time for myself.
How long does it take to lick off

While your attention is on being the king,
I read the "one-eyed" first. And although

Re: no SEE no ears but a STEAMING HELPING from KABIR
Hallo Gene,
if you feel like defending yourself with
cynicism and aggression (emphasis on defending yourself),
that's your choice and your life.
I don't feel like continuing these "I'm
better", "I know better" or "I can longer"
games which are fashion in this list.
I'm just angry.
> I see that you got 'hooked' here.
> Why?
> Is there regret, yet?
I don't have an idea about what you are talking.
Probably you are projecting something into me
or my actions. "hooked" and "regret" doesn't
ring a bell. Or would you prefer not to have me
in this list?
Be assured: I didn't come because of you.
When I read thru the last messages, your
post just stood out because of it's clean
and clear "neo" therapist-attitude.
And in many of your statements you confirm
that self-image. Obviously you think, you
can do something.
Everybody does what he see right to do
and no man should tell another what to do
and what not. So if you feel like playing
priest or therapist or doctor or master -
go ahead.
But there are some things which you obviously
have no experience about: the graziness
and pain on the path, when the energy start
cleansing the psyche. I don't say that
Valerie is in that phase - I don't know her
at all - but I recognize, that this is not even
a possibility for you.
You only use a "therapeutic" or "behaviouristic"
standpoint in your emails. And - excuse me -
that's not even the beginning of the path,
that's just the preparation phase, the
warm-up round.
> So, you now come out, 'against'
> therapists, eh?
I've never hidden my special love for those
psycho-power maniacs. There are good therapists -
but these are rare (as in any other occupation).
And even an average therapist might be of help
in illness-related situations. But the average
new-age "therapist" is just a pain in the ass.
> Is that supposed to be a big hurtful,
> scary, boo-boo word from you?
Look at your reality, man. Look at what
techniques you are using to defend your self.
> Like 'ego', eh? Just use that word
> and they cringe and become submissive?
You did not yet get it,
because you are totally in it.
Spiritual ego is the worst kind.

No, sorry, I don't buy that.
Big seemingly powerful words to hide
the fact that there is the bull's eye:
My point was it, that you speak to dominate,
to manipulate, to get acknowledgement.
Later in your post you will even try
to get rid of it by projecting that unto me.
> "more normal", eh?
> Is that 'better' than therapist?
YES, YES AND YES. I prefer a normal human
to nearly any therapist.
> Your not-subtle and invidious attempt to

> transparently and utterly manipulative!
Not at all, Gene. I'm hammering at you.
But with your thick skin... you prefer
to think it's about Valerie.
Therapists allways prefer to think and
speak about others. Perhaps I should
try it some time...
> Anyone who has written to her onlist or
> offlist. You have seen her reactions.
No, I've seen YOUR reaction, Gene.
With all your verbal force you tried to bring
her into your frame of reference: social
acceptance, "positive", acceptable behaviour,
vituously answering all the "great" communication
attemps of which this list is overflowing.
This can't be right, Gene, because you are wrong.
Says my nose. Perhaps for her it's right,
that's not my point. My point is: Gene, you
are wrong. You are no therapist, you have
not experienced and lived yourself the slightest
freedom from conditioning. You have not even
"GOT IT" that the new-age circus gave you
an immense conditioning.

YOU ARE A VICTIM. GOT IT?
No excuse. No de-victimizing of others to avoid
looking at your own patterns.
All your power trips and therapeutic/behaviouristic
hog washs help you nothing. You are a victim of your
own believes.
Deep down that's why you cannot tolerate somebody
else playing the victim and being depressive
or whatever Valerie might play. That disturbes your
therapeutic positive surface cover-up. And to top
it all she is not even ready to get "healed" by you!
Now, how am I as a therapist? .o)

At least she's not a therapist.
That's a big step into the direction

> as they try to speak with you?
You try to speak? Let me understand it.
Do you speak or not?
Ok, let's assume you spoke.
Then what did you try?
Hhhm.. I'll ask my intuition...
Ok here it is: so you tried to
make her think what you think,
make her believe what you believe,
make her acknowledge your greatness.
And you didn't succed, that's why
you call it "I tried to speak with you".
But that's exactly why I call her
more normal than you, Gene.
She has her own way of thinking and
expressing herself.
And daring to manifest their own nature
is who? Name two members of this list.
And don't include me, I'm not daring
to manifest nature and I don't own
it anyway - it owns me.
> I cannot blame the readers here,
> for reluctance to try to communicate

According to my personal experience,
there are not many readers in this
groups - mainly writers. In your words:
many try to speak, but nobody listens.
But victimizing is everywhere, it's part
of the global social conditioning at large.
Everybody is victimizing others and feeling
victimized her/himself. Trying not to feel
and act victimized is no cure at all -
it's only the opposite - the wet dream
within the nightmare.
In a way you seem to accuse Valerie of expressing
her ego-shadow. While you express the luminescent
ego - the white hero, the therapist. No use.
Both are games. But with her game she is at least
feeling bad - hence she's going to stop it sooner
or later. While you seem to feel great with you
role. Consequently you will never stop it.
I repeat: if you really feel Valerie needed
therapy (and you see yourself as a therapist),
go over and do it. All else is just hot air.
> And your psychiatrist (a real MD?) is
> actually a TRANSGENDER person?
Better having both sexes than no one at all.
What I mean by that, dear Gene
(you go for MEANING, don't you?):
it is not your business the judge
therapists. Especially as you yourself
are beyond any further therapy as it looks like.
But I may be wrong and you may be a real
therapist. So: if you can do it better -
then go and do it.

Bullshit, bullshit, bullshit.
Your text is pure social conditioning,
therapy in it's essence: strengthening
the adaption, strengthening the ego
(especially that of the therapist).
Perhaps she wants to get involved with
herself after all that many years of
listening to somebody else?
> In loving concern...
Loving? You are loving?
But not ready to meet her?

Naturally, I take for granted what I feel,

Otherwise I would be in the same situation

KABIR ALARM
Quite simple:
It's more important who you are, than what you write.
And I am not you. So any comparision of what you do
and what I do is just that: a futile comparision.
As far as I am concerned, EMIL:
show your face or shut up.
In my book spirituality is about
making oneself open and vulnerable.
And I am not ready to give up that
ideal only because you define yourself
as AN ENLIGHTENED BIG BULL.
If you continue without showing more
of yourself to step into my conversations
with others, I will finally simply leave.
Vomit wherever you want,
but not into my direction
and not about what I write.
Get out of my way.
I'm not going to tolerate your
disturbance any longer. Full stop.

What trick, Hans? Feeling is not a trick but a natural

Fine.

Unasked? You went from one Satsang teacher to the
other and call this unasked? You may not have asked
me personally, but why shouldn't I say what I mean?
Your whole being ist expressing itself through
every sentence, and I should not answer that, but
rather "behave" and answer only to what your personality
wants to hear?
> I am here to communicate with other humans. That most

As you can see by yourself, that the emotional trap you are
in, make it nearly impossible to communicate. And the
spritual theory on top of that emotional trap doesn't
make it better. If you can't see it in yourself, perhaps
you can see it in other members of this list.
> What I don't like is this one-way-nagging all the time.
If this was a one-way street, you are just driving into
the wrong direction. You are doing your share of nagging,
Hans. Mainly in the form of complaining.

I am not your guest and I'm not your answering machine.
I'm not talking from that level where you are and want
everybody else to be too. Just think of me being on the
level below you. Just below the grass and flowers whith
which you have beautified your existence. And I'm a worm
from below, drilling holes in the garden so that finally
you may fall down into what is below the peace and beauty
of your nice little personal paradise.

Nature.
Years and years you have asked for personal

developed in you, which will answer this quest.
People around you will start delivering the
answers to your questions, situations will
develop such, that all and everything favours
your personal development.

Not at all. See my explanation above.
Perhaps what should be added is:
personal development means dismantling the person.

Yeah, but she's dead allready.

spiritual development is spoken out.

I doubt very much, that at the moment we both have
the same idea about what "waking up" means.
Family package = big, enormuous amount of, more than
enough for a single person.
Homeopatic approach = increasing the illness to
strengthen the natural healing power.
Modern masters and Satsang teachers give lots
of attention to the attention-seekers. Nadeen for
example let everybody sit in his (nadeen's) chair
and tell the audience about his (the seeker's)
enlightenment.
The seeker's ego is blown up, until it becomes
unbearable any more. When I'm at home I'll pick
a quote by Rajneesh to make that more clear.
Rajneesh was the first to use spirituality
for ego-feeding, and the whole spiritual circus
is copying his techniques.

You mean your attention-dealer, probably.
That was only the salesman, who flattered

Your true teacher has yet to reveal itself to you.
If and when She does that, is up to Her.

Oh no, Hans. This list is not about behaviour.
And the whole path isn't either.
This is about feeling, feeeeeling, feeeeeeeeeeeeeling.
You said: "I felt neglected."
I say: "That's perfect! That was exactly what
I intended. That is the medicine. And it's great,
that you took it and tasted it."
Haven't you read Irina Tweedie's diary-like
description of her path? "Daughter of Fire -
A Diary of a Spiritual Training with a Sufi Master".
I just open it and read on one of it's 800+ pages:
11th January
" [...] He did not speak to us at all the whole morning,
and in the evening we sat in the dark room and he was with
his family in the next room. I could just see his profile,
the white beard, looking like a prophet with his grey topy.
It suits him. But about seven, Sharma came in with some other
men. So, he came out hurriedly. The same story repeats itself
again: he will never come out for us. If others are there,
we may benefit from his presence. But if we are alone, he lets
us sit in the dark room... and he does not care that H. will
be here for only two more weeks. And she made such sacrifices
in order to be able to come... "
Hans, we want attention. For a child this is natural.
A child cannot survive without it's mother's attention.
We have grown bodily since childhood, but we have not grown
up spiritually. It's not our fault, the whole society is
spiritually retarded, the whole society is kept (and keeping
itself) on the level of a needy child indefinatedly.
Needing attention. Paying with attention like junkies
pay each other with a piece.
Addicted to getting attention.
It's not our fault, but it's our responseablity,
it's our job to become natural again.
To become free of this attention-addiction.
Hard way but can be done (I know some ... .o)
The Satsang teachers deal this dope in family packages.
An homeopatic approach, I would say.
Except for those, who might be ready for the medicine.
Like Irana Tweedie was ready.
Read her book. Buy it and read it,
and imagine you in her shoes.
It will be a revelation, I promise.
Finally you have recognized,
why I call you a pot-head.
Not because of Mary Jane,
no, not at all.
But because you are an
attention-addict, Hans.

"Nobody can "define" another person's Gnosis..
for it is uniquely one's own."
But then, Hans, why do you pick other people's words?
According to my experience, there are all kinds
of individual differences but the spiritual realm
also has some laws (laws of nature not of humans).
For example:
Gnosis comes from within.
And with "within" I don't mean the mind,
mind you. Thinking cannot bring it.

This is a philosophical question,
which is not neccessarily true
and not neccessarily false.
The second of your statements is more human,
hence more important I think:

For example:
If somebody shows words of philosophy and (perhaps)
wisdom and beautiful pictures but shows nothing about
himself, the effect will be, that those coming into
contact with him will become more interested in
philosophy and words than in themselves. Or - to
put it into new-age phraseology: the readers
are pulled into philosophy, ideas, words and pictures
instead of into themselves.
That's why I say the new age sprituality is
rather a symptom of what they want to overcome
than the cure.
Example:

I walk. You walk. He/she/it walks.
"We walk" is only true for Siamese twins.
Are you THAT?

P.S.
You see: your posting had an effect, namely
rising criticism. But perhaps this was
intended and perfectly planed by the spirit
in you, when it gave you the impulse to
write what you wrote? Then seeing cause and
effect as separate would be nothing but
a symtom of your division (as in fact both
would be happening in you by you).
In my opinion such concepts show only that
too much importance is given to the mind
in our cultural herirage. And repeating
them like you do is a sure sign of being
bound to that old world (i.e. either the
speaker is still living there or the intended
audience).
The latter might give you an idea,
why I write how I write. Or in my words:

Answer to Hans
--- Hans wrote [to Kabir]:
> What makes this few sentences for you so important?
> Or was it just that you found it?
They are important for me.
This seems to be the essence of Osho's teaching
during the early years (later sixtiexs and
early seventies). As I came into closer contact
with Osho's Sannyas only much later (1980),
I have only the films and lectures from that
time to get an idea about what was going on
in the beginning.
There must have been going on something, else
Sannyas would not have grown that fast and big.
And it certainly was different from what was
going on later (there were no longer these
intense bodywork- and encountergroups in the famous
"cellars" for example).
I see it as follows:
Say: when a new Harry Potter movie comes out,
the fans who are "really" interested are the
first to stand in line for the tickets and
get up in the middle of the night to see the
very first screening.
So in the early seventies the ones who were strongly
interested in Sannyas went to India and Osho worked
with them in the way the work is done with committed
disciples. The lazy ones (like me) came later and then
the intensity and hardship of the work was greatly
reduced (perhaps otherwise I would not have come at all).
Why else should He have changed His teaching so drastically?
The intense techniques and therapies must have worked well,
many of the "early birds" became therapists or got leading
jobs to do in his Ashrams, didn't they?
hence it was not the question of the work being ineffective,
yet it was changed - why?
One possible answer: because the later disciples needed
different techniques.
Knifes and forks for the meat, spoons for the pudding.
Seen from THAT angle, the old sentences
have really some importance, don't they?

Re: New file uploaded to n0by
Yeah, Hans, the sound is really bad.
It's from (I think) The Book of Secrets Vol. V
--------------------------
For this age cartharsis is a must.
Noone can reach to the Guide,
to the Inner Guide,
without catharsis,
with a long conflict with the Inner Guide.
And everybody is born with the Inner Guide,
but it's not allowed to work, to function.
When something comes from the Inner,
it comes from the navel upwards.
The master or the guru, the outer guru,
can be helpful only to find out the
Inner Guru - that far.
Once the outer guru has helped you to find
the Inner Guru, the function of the
outer guru is no more.

This is as I hear it, but perhaps I've

Re: real champions amongst us
Hans, you do not seem to know
what is going on in the non-public
parts of a spiritual school.
And the non-public is it where
most of the work is done.
Why do you think, they are called
"esotheric" schools?
Have you not recognized, that disciples
live together with the teacher in houses
or monasteries for years?
And that's not only the case in Zen.
I know for example the Miracle of Love
has commune houses where the elder disciples
live together with one or more members
of the inner circle (so to speak).
On the surface all is very ego-friendly,
but behind the stage it's not so easy
(for the ego).
Rule No 1 in such environments: you do
what the teacher/trainer/guru/master says.
This was allways so in the past
and is is still so all over the
world. Spices may change, but
the meat remains the same.
And because the egoistic society
would go against it, it is not
made too public. Although it's
happening right under our eyes
- one just has to look carefully.
> One question left: was there a ratio between intense and
> uncomfortable.
Sure, it was not allways stressing. One could not
live through such a setup. And mind you: it was caring
and loving - but uncomfortable for egotisms,
lies, illusions, "games" and mindfuck.
What an open and feeling person might call "loving"
could well be a very intense and shameful situation
for (say) a notorious liar or (say) a very negative
person or (say) somebody who is sucking and demanding
attention etc. etc. etc.
Ask people living in the Ashram of a living teacher.
Read about the half-year experiment Paul Lowe was
doing in Italy.
Read between the lines in the books of disciples.
It is just there under your nose.
It is not really hidden, but it gets neglected
an pushed aside by our minds.
> I mean 5000 hours of "intense + uncomfortable" encounters?
> What the f* where you doing?
I can understand that you have difficulties to
understand that. But your ignorance is not my
fault. And your wishfull thinking about 2 hours
a day makes me smile. For years and years I'm
trying to inform that spirituality is not only
flowers and soft music and beautiful maidens
in Satsang. That this is only the showroom.
Those who are on the path, know allready,
and the others don't want to know anyway.
So I could as well shut up in the future...
But 2 hours a day? Forget about it.
Live your truth 24/7 - or drop it here & now.
SATYANANDA wrote after his years on the Ranch
(I write it down from memory)
"If you have not yet played
with the idea of suicide,
your path has not yet begun."
OOOOPS! PLAYING WITH THE IDEA OF SUICIDE?
Why should he write such a sentence?
What has this to do with the spiritual path?

What do you think an ordinary Satsang or Ashram
is made for? For Orgasms? Flower Power Happiness?
What do you think the infamous Here&Now is made of?
Of HOPES?????
You come with your little hopes to a teacher.
The teacher looks at you and gets it instantly
wether you are ready to give up your hopes or not.
If you are ready: you'll get de-hoped right from the
start. If you are not ready: you'll receive more hopes
(enlightenment, nirvana, god, meditation, peace,
cosmic orgasm, global acceptance, whatever).
That's called homeopathic healing, making you more
ill until you activate your own healing power
(i.e. until you are toitally fed-up of living
your life out of hopes).

So you believe essentially, that only

while you are somewhat free from belive and
only doing it as an experiment.
Who is more insane - the insane one who accepts,
that he is insane, or the insane one who is
sure that he is not as insane as others?
The believer who believes that he believes less
(or less dangerous believes) than the other
stupid believing believers?

Can't you think straight for a second?
I was given the name Kabir by my teacher and
I decided to use it in this list. Because the
name I had given myself (Ka) was somewhat too
agressive after a while. Now, "Kabir" is associated
with that old Indian poet and mystic and anyway
the Yahoo-ID kabir was allready taken.
So I had to decribe that I was different
from that old Kabir...
"German Kabir"? - ugly
"Little Kabir"? - like Bonanza's Little Joe? Size would fit.
"Unreal Kabir"? - would not be fair to myself
So what difference is there between me and the
old Indian? Right! I'm still living while he is dead.
And this "living" also fits to my old name from
Bhagwan: "Jivano" - Life.
That was my decision process. Now look at
all the stuff you tried to interprete into it.
Hans, you are a dope-head. And all the spiritual
ideas you took in are more dangerous than any
power plant could ever be. You cannot even
think simple and straight. DO YOU GET IT?
YOUR MIND IS HIGHLY UNRELIABLE BY NOW!
Perfect. Unspoken but intended result
of modern Satsangs.
Your only chance from now on: let your heart
decide everything, and don't try to make any
sense out of anything. Your mind is not only
an extremely old model, but it's broken.

Re: talking to ...Kabir.
Adithya, you may be talking to yourself
to a bigger extend than you are aware of.
To yourself and about yourself.
In German we have the word "verarschen",
which translates verbally into
"to ass someone"
meaning "to kid someone", "to muck someone about",
"to play someone for a sucker", "to take someone for a ride",
"to take the mick out of someone", "to take the mickey
out of someone", "to take the piss out of someone"
or "to twit someone". But allways with the "ass" in it,
like behaving as an "ass" towards someone or treating
the other as an "ass".
And that's my feeling about your postings:
You "ass" everybody
One technique to do that is to play stupid,
answer as if you got only the verbal level
of what the other wrote. The next of your
techniques (similiar to the first one) is it,
to neglect the undertones and consequences
of what is said. I call that one "sticking to
the surface". And then the resistance to answer
to the emotional touch of what is said or refuse
to answer emotionally yourself. Let me call that
latter one: "playing the robot".
And so on and so forth...
Example:
> Let us talk.
> …of course, just for the sake of talk.
> I have nothing to better to do.
After first having emitted a lot of spiritual
talk, like "there is nothing to gain...".
How stupid do you think we are?
> >> [...] you are in an awful hurry.
> Yes, Kabir, Yes, …I know. My boss [...]
And all posting full of blaming. Blaming
circumstances and other persons: ...my boss...
...the work-life... society...
So on top of "ass"ing everybody you are an escaper.
First pretending - then escaping.
Wether you are conscious about it or not is irrelevant.

Hi Adithya,

For somebody who claims
that there is nothing to gain
you are in an awful hurry.
For somebody interested in consciousness
you put the blame very easily unto others.
For sombody claiming to be uninterested in
(or allready complete with) the modern
spirituality you have too many spiritual
quotes and ideas and concepts ready
in your mind for instantanuous retrieval.
Mindgames - the "nothing to lose"
as well as "enlightenment" or the
"ready-made answers for all and everything".
There is nothing to gain - for the mind.
There is nothing to lose - for the being.
Your mind is very quick.
Great - I love fast computers.
Yet the faster it is,
the bigger is the addiction
to playing (and believing) it's games.
To dissolve just a tiny part of this addiction
(the spiritual Osho-programming) took me
5000 hours of intense and uncomfortable
hours in direct face-to-face being-to-being
encounters with a living master.
How long might it take you?
Zen-people say it takes 20 years - 10 within
the monastery and 10 on your own afterwards.
That's a little more than just playing computer-
games in an email list without any committment
and without any master working on you.
Where the participants don't even have
enough discipline to edit the quotes for
readability.
Let me take an excerpt from your text
and answer to it. Just as an example.
> Freedom is very strange thing.
> Complete freedom means that you have
> freedom to be ecstatic, orgasmic,
> oceanic but you also have freedom
> to be pathetic, pissed and squeezed.
> Complete freedom is a great
> luxury that can be used both ways,
> ...and the humans have tried very
> hard to get rid of. [ ... etc, etc, etc ...]
A computer is not free.
Even if it is programmed with all
the books in the world about freedom,
it remains a (great and wonderful
but nevertheless programmed)
input-processing-output device.
The programmer counts, not the program.
The projector counts, not the projection.
Or another example of your mind:
> Ok, ...let us talk about Osho.
>
> Osho had a beautiful beard, ...big eyes,
> ...and authored more than
> 400 books. And, that's the end of my
> knowledge of ....Osho.
I did not start to talk about Osho,
I just pointed at the fact, that your
emails seem to be full of his phrases.
Your cup is overflowing with Osho-tea.
You are spilling it all over the place.
Playing the wise not-knower but arrogantly
(and indirectly) claiming that you know better.
And you think you can decide about whom
"we" are talking?
Well - let me tell you once and for all:
I decide about what and whom (and with whom
and when and how) I am talking. Not you.
Should you ever want to learn something
from anybody else but from your own mind
(which is programmed to be arrogant because
that's part of it being manipulatable),
I repeat: should you ever want to learn
something from somebody else, then be prepared
to let the other decide about the topic of
conversation.
Spirituality is not about Osho or enlightenment
or God or whatever. It's about you - for you,
for me it's about me.
But you are free to evade the topic of
facing yourself until your deathbed.
That's the only (illusion of) freedom we have.

Three errors in one little sentence,

that's the understandable one;
nobody is sure what will happen.
more & tomorrow:
mousetraps big enough to catch elephants
The rest of your email is not for me,
at least I do not feel to be addressed.
I'm neither a bacterium nor can I fly
(I tried once as a little boy and broke
my arm, that's how I think I know).
But as I see it:
You're on high-fligh, my friend.
Looks like energy-induced. Nothing
special. Many people will experience
similiar states during the next years.
The melting of the barriers, I'd call it.
And it's said (by Maitreya Ishwara
and others also), that it will become
stronger. Eat some bread or take a cold
shower if it becomes too much.
Stay cool, man. And don't flip out
in case it switches from high to low.
The low is part of the whole also.
No need to act according to the
low feelings by the way. Just feeling
them is enough. No action is best action
when it gets dark.
Just experience what happens.
Watch it, don't judge yourself.
This is not enlightenment, it's
simply your nature breaking through.
Let it happen. And let negative feelings
(should they appear) also happen.
So called "negative" experiences are
neccessary to deepen and purify the
human psyche, I think.

Re: ...nothing to lose, ...nothing to gain.
Then why do you speak up, if there is nothing to
lose or to gain for you? Why?
And what do you have to say?
> Wise or fool, ...the earth can take many more,
> real or fake, ...the earth can bear many more,
> lying or truthful, ...makes not much difference.
No, it does make a difference. To me it's
making a lot of a difference.
You try to beautify your mail with an Osho quote.
And then write as if you have understood it.
This guy you were quoting was not only speaking,
but living his life out of the realm beyond
duality. You copy advaita words with your mind,
and what comes out is not beyond but rather
limited by your own spiritual greed. Your
Indian-spiritual greed to have something
important to say.
I've heard:
A woman had bought a new hat and she was so
proud of it, that she kept wearing it on all
occassions. Such a beautiful hat. It made
her look pretty and wise at the same time.
Colourful, tasty. A dream hat.
Then her man said to her:
"Darling, please at least take off this hat
during our lovemaking! I never know wether
you are coming or going."
With you and me the situation is similiar,
Adithya.
Please take off your spiritual head,
I never know wether you are comming
or going.
And don't try to impress me with your
fake spiritual orgasms either while I'm
watching TV. Please. At least try to
limit them to the advertisement-periods.
I've seen and heard so many of them
during my time as an Osho-Sannyasin
that I'm fed up with them, believe me.
Yesterday you even had one when they scored
a goal against Germany. Now that is too much!
That's where your female freedom to ejaculate
has to end.
got me?

Greetings.
I just got some professional advertisement (about webservers) and
realized a pattern, which seems to be everywhere:
cheaper, cheaper, cheaper - getting everything for nothing.
So who pays the bill? Who does the work?
I don't exclude myself. It's the same with me: I want to live nicely
- and I don't want to clean everyday. I want to have money -
and there are many things which I hate to do (like my taxes).
We want to get as much as we can -
and we don't want to pay for it.
Doing everything we feel like doing without
accepting the negative consequences.
It's everywhere. Bush thinks he can do
what he wants to do (if he thinks at all).
And we think, just a little positive thinking
will fix everything. Just listening more
or less attentively to some lectures, going to
some Satsangs, just some understanding, just
believing it strongly enough and whoosh!
we are enlightened (or at least satisfied and happy).
I write this to you, because in this list
it's the same. Big words are taken for reality.
Thinking is thought to be everything.
Words, words, words... beautiful words,
words of wisdom. So wonderful, so beautiful
are these words and concepts of awareness
and development and all other new age concepts,
that the normal everyday judgement seems to be
totally forgotten. As if everybody is full of
spirituality like a junkie is full of whatever
he's taking.
Yet for my feeling there is a reality behind
these dreams. Our attitude is not going to
last much longer, the point of return is
long past - we only don't want to recognize it.
There is something going on behind the words.
And this time words will not be enough
to pay the bill, universe is no longer
accepting our cheques.
That's my feeling.
Kabir

Hi Benoit,
I call myself Ka or Kabir. You can get an idea about
who I am at myhomepage (see my Yahoo-Profile).
BTW please show your face also.
I'm neither holy and I was also brought up by women.
So what? I have been in the therapy circus for 5
and in the Bhagwan circus for 12 years. And it took
me years of work to come out of this shit. So what?
Somebody might have spoiled the garden of your house
by riding a heating-oil-truck through the fence and
watering your grass and flowers with 200 liters of oil.
Will you complain? Shoot the driver? Run to the next lawyer?
Or organize some help and take a showel to avoid that
the oil infiltrate the groundwater? And how long are
you going to ponder over this decision?
I was in a similiar situation as you are after 12 Years
of being "a Sannyasin". A little better off perhaps,
because I could not blame anybody else. And a little
worse, because I had gone for the "Headwash with Bhagwan
Heating Oil" voluntarily.
Many here in this list are in a similiar situation,
their hairwash may vary, but the smell is similiar.
And be careful, not few have made a party out of it
(and a fashion to wear oily hair styles). They even
go on carrying oil-cans with them and try to convice
everybody that "you can celebrate everything". While
the hard-selling types will try to sell your their
therapy - or anti-therapy -, their new-man conditioning
- or their deconditioning.
"Just a visitor to this garden.
Never burnt, never oiled."
Let's face it like men.
It's your brain, it will
be your work to clean it.
And it will be dirty work.
> I was brought up with a bunch of women after all.
> Today it doesn't make much sense to me.
You are still Mom's good boy, aren't you?
Just crying and shouting a little so that she
(or one of the other Daddies and Moms on this earth)
may come to help you.
Why do I say so? Because it's childish to blame others.
And even if Mom wanted to help you, it's highly
questionable, wether she's able to do it.
She did her part - she created this situation for you.
Now do your part and get out of it as best as you can.
Kabir
