A perspective I can heartily subscribe to as well, since it simultaneously embraces all sides of a question, and the ability to happily embody simultaneous and extreme contradiction is, as Tom and Peter nicely point out, the "paradox of Brahman." After all, what earthly difference does it make to any of you what "state of consciousness" I (or any of us) may or may not be "in"? The only thing that really matters is where YOU are willing to stand. As to whether we may be delusional/deluding others -- when we get to the heart of it that is something we all have to decide for ourselves, whether we do that by choosing which texts or teachers or traditions we resonate with, or by simply following our own inner Truth, or by some combination thereof. :-) To subscribe, send a message to: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Or go to: http://groups.yahoo.com/group/FairfieldLife/ and click 'Join This Group!'
