Iranitea, you are SUCH a bore. I didn't answer because I was hoping you'd give up on this stupid argument. First of all, I don't believe you ever respected Robin. Second, yes, his post of December 27 is where he told you explicitly that he had known you were prejudiced against him from the start. Contrary to what you seem to think, this was not hard to discern from your posts (including the one in which you parodied his writing style). > > > You had > > > no intention of engaging with him; you were just > > > going to pronounce judgment on his mental health, as > > > you did a few days later in your discussion with > > > Barry. > > On the 20 Dec 2011, what I said was genuinely felt at the > time. As I say, I don't believe you. > Neither was there any direct contradiction to anything I > said before in my post on the 16th. Of course not. You didn't *say* anything in your post of December 20 except for the insincere compliments. > He just narrated his story, and I was impressed by his > skill in narration, but as you admit yourself, The word here is "assert," not "admit." > it did in no way address the more philosophical questions, > or give an answer to the ontological problem, his story, > his version what his enlightenment was about. > > Indeed that was never satisfyingly addressed. To *your* satisfaction, you mean. As I said earlier, he told you what he thought you needed to know about him. He wasn't giving a lecture on Hinduism or Advaita. > You are wrong, in your mind-reading about my motivation > as well.

This was a spontaneous > reaction, partly by your over-devotional attitude (in > another thread), This is astonishing, that you would question his mental health in public because you didn't like something I had said about him. Of course I have never had a "devotional" attitude toward Robin. As I recall, you had earlier made a fool of yourself by suggesting I had such an attitude toward Ravi. You even gave a little lecture about how women tend to fall in love with their gurus. That was hilarious. > partly simply by my intention NOT to hide anything, to > be completely open, quite the opposite of what you say. You waited until you saw you had some support from Barry to be "open" about your opinion of Robin. > Judy, you are soo often so wrong in the way you judge > people, a special situation, their supposed intentions > etc. Hand-waving. > I have basically no real interest in Robin. Bullshit. You are obsessed with him, and your many posts about him prove it. > Why I mention it, is that so much things are going on > here between US, which is based on a wrong calculation > on your side. Only someone with a deeply warped mentality would try to punish a person they were having a dispute with by attacking another person for whom the first person had respect and admiration. > Why don't you admit, when you were wrong?

And you *agreed* with Barry about Robin having NPD, remember? I didn't call you a liar in the post commenting on your agreement with Barry, BTW. I've certainly had other occasions to do so, however. > And then you get all upset, when I point out a mistaken > attribution, to which you had linked. I didn't "get all upset," I thought it was hilarious. > I might not have done that, and not returned here, > if you wouldn't have accused me falsely in the first place! Oh, that's even funnier. I didn't accuse you falsely. But you're letting something I said over a year and a half ago dictate your behavior *today*. That's just amazing, so infantile. > I have no problem to say sorry if I am wrong, as I was when > made a wrong attribution to Dr. D post last time I was here, > http://groups.yahoo.com/group/FairfieldLife/message/339572 You didn't have any choice. You had made a complete ass of yourself because you hadn't been paying attention. You insulted DrD and Ann, and me as well, and wouldn't listen when the two of them tried to clue you in. As Ann said at the time, "Your posts just scream, 'I am acting like a child because I can't help myself.'" I'd say she hit the bullseye with that characterization. You disappeared for months after finally, finally acknowledging your mistake. Not surprising, considering how badly you had embarrassed yourself. But that's the only time I can remember that you acknowledged a mistake, and you've made scores of them.
