The goal of most practises seem to be facilitating the disintergration of the different "I's. That's well put. and prefereably in a context so to wrap things up so you don't have a nervous breakdown. Well yes. Many of us have discussed the necessity of this before. Lot's of people search for a teacher and see him or her as an authority or parental figure. Some don't. Most people who teach (should) know this. In kunlun it was said that Max did not want to be seen as a teacher but a "friend", well...the traditional everyday friendship is something that more or less is based on mutualship, something is created between souls, which belongs to both, both parts chip in for mutual benefit. But this friend threw a party in the kunlunforum and just left the building. Kinda ubercool. After tossing in some molotovs about aliens and dragons and a personal comment to me about not being afraid of what I dont know. Rright. really surplus since this practise haven't presented anything I already had'nt seen. Exept for aliens, (count out man-sized birds). I'm not particularly hooked on reptiles since I'd already had the obligatory round with my son when he was 4. Well that is a fascinating thing though, how a interest for a particular interest in this part of our earths history seems to bloom when the kids (dare I say boys) are in a particular age. Maybe ithere is a correlation with activity in the brain stem? I agree it is a good thing if the student shows independence, but first there has to be dependency - before one can develop independence. A lot of spiritual practise speaks of the importance of nonattachment..or avoiding entanglement. But one have to recognize a relationship of entanglement first before dismanling it. Also there has been too much focus here on who is giving and who is receiving, so there is in fact no true real relationship, only students relation to very hastily described exercises. Exercises that are allowed to disintergrate due to the lack of precise followup-instruction by the teacher. I noticed when reading an old book by C.G. Jung that he mentiones the left hand path..the direct path to the primal spirit or the unconscious..I have been thinking that this man Max who is by some described as a mix between an enlightened master and a conman, took a chance on using this as a method intentionally. I remember him mention something like this is a method best suited for those who are not too collected or intellectual, better for those who are more in contact with their feelings.? And..also that the method works "like cutting off a chickens head". I don't really understand Mantras post..did he just say..we just wanted to give it to you but didn't really foresee the implications? If so ..thats cool. My hearthackra is happy..with the groupenergy it generated.

Be happy that the real you is ventilating through your dreams, that is, what makes you think that the "wake you" is not real if the "dream you" is reflecting something different than your consious will? have a heart. you are balancing. you'll be just fine.

reading both these post makes me realize how blessed I am to be standing right here in his stream of consciousness. thank you. I cannot and will not post anything worthwhile compared, just add some words I think may fit from A.H.Almaas brilliant booklet "The Elixir of Enlightenment" He is speaking about the various aspects of Essence which he describes as a descending force, then discusses kundalini which he sees as a special form of essence, namely energy which is ascends. Then He says something at least for me fundamental; "Now if there were a way to activate essence in such a way that it would keep manifesting one aspect after the other without being interrupted, then our solution would be found. And in fact, there is a way that will do just that. This has to do with a certain essential aspect, that of space - space, the dimension of emptiness, the dimension of the void. If a person can experience space, then essence will manifest spontaneousy, one aspect following another. The aspect of space is. just ike any other essential aspect related to a certain sector of the personality. Dealing with this sector which has to do with self-image, will eaisly precipate the experience of space. This in turn will activate the descending force, essene, in its various aspects."

this whole idea of being able to go for days does only reflect the same massconsumption society but this time it mirrors the idea of sustainability. the new mantra for a world that finally gets the point that it is impossible to make a world float with spewing out new artifacts non stop. so the rescuing factor is now to become the attractive sustainable object worst scenario case men who think its a good idea to be markedet as alcatel bunnies Quote Goldisheavy "It's good in the same way that a ball and a chain are good when attached to your leg."

incredibly interesting and intriguing thoughs. Im not sure I agree. When you tune an instrument(read person) don't u ..yes I get u totally now..have to listen to the particular characteristics of that particular instrument but it is nice to study and play on whatever instrument also..right so what do u use as a guideline? those dead concepts of yours where do you find them? tell me please about the higher plane, is it the field of actualized interpersonal exchange versus a mental and isolated state? As many poems as persons, that's nice. " I would focus on analyzing and reflecting on those intentions far more than on the poem itself." excuse me but I thought that was what reading the poem was all about? Im confused. I often am. just curious..is "higher" in this case by any means almost synonymous with specific?
