Absolutely true. But in my opinion one can do 'personal attacks' from a sense of frustrated compassion and an attempt to provoke a smile from at least the bystanders, or one can do it from a desire to do harm. I would *love* to have a pleasant conversation with Judy Stein. She's intelligent, she's well-spoken, and I've learned a lot from her rationality and her word nitpicking (See, even iconoclastic writers can sometimes praise editors). But at the same time, as Vaj said recently, I have suffered greatly at the hands of Judy Stein. I have hoped beyond hope for years that at some point she'd actually show a spark of humanity, of concern for others or even awareness that others *exist*. Instead, what I've found is an ego out of control, one that has to overreact to anything that challenges her world view or her view of her self (*very* small S). And the overreaction is very often in the form of attempting to impugn the character of or reputation of those who have committed the Cardinal Sin of disagreeing with her. You've been there, man. You've seen her savage ex- TMers that she consider "anti-TMers." You've seen her savage *meditators* (currently active TMers) fer chrissakes. She doesn't really *care* who she savages; she cares only about being "right," and about "winning" the argument, even if it *wasn't* an argument before she got involved in it. I'm just fuckin' tired of it. All these years, hoping that she'd show a little human decency from time to time. All these years disappointed. So if I limit myself to the occasional cheap shot about her dried-up pussy, count yourself lucky. It's much better than me going on and on here about how much the spectacle of such wasted intelligence and wasted time spent pursuing a path that *should* have enabled her to be a better person than she is just breaks my heart and causes me to doubt the efficacy of spiritual practice itself.
