> The young lady in question said it was her > experience that her mind was never going to figure it out. Not Now. > Not ever. Sorry, I misread that very last part of the letter. I thought you were commenting that "her mind was never going to figure it out. Not Now. Not ever. " Sorry. That one small misreading however does not change the main point of the post. I quoted the following, and suggested support for its validity. ===== All valid observations and insights that you need to temper your own experience with, not deconstruct the validity of another's experience. You can only talk about what you experience, not another. And certainly don't expect social consensus with someone like MMY. Your mind is never going to get him. Never, ever. Amen. DR PS ====== Your post appeared to contradict this, that you were not just speaking of your own eperience but making unversal claims as to all others' experiences. If I misudnderstood this too, aplologies. > The writer looking out through these eyes is that Brahman. > What has been written is the experience of life lived. It may not be > your experience if you are real attached to that I you keep inserting > in someones elses letter. However, if I did misunderstand your position, and now it is clarified that you only speak for your own experiences, I fail to see your reason for disturbance about my stating "perhaps what Tom meant to say was ..." and as an interesing exercise in tone, creating an alternative text, recasting your post interms of your experience and not universal claims about all others' experiences. I would think you would say, upon reading the alternative way of treating the matter "yes, that is all I meant, that I am describing my own experiences, not making unversal claims about others'." If on the otherhand, you beleive Dr. Stuphens points are wrong and you are making universal claims about all others' experiences, then the follow-up post to this on "Cultism and Free Seekers" has more importance. It would confirm my worst, though barely ever dwelt on fears about you Tom, that if holding such a position, you would be a cultist carving out your own creed with an absolutist sense of universal Truth for all, based solely on your own personal experience (as grand as that may be.) ------------------------ Yahoo!
