Your attempting to fill in holes that don't exist, presume much that has never occurred and regurgitate your own projections on the flesh of my statements as if my signature is as condiment to your upchuck for reconsumtion.
Three-fourths of all the pain and suffering people experience in life are due to the pleasures others derive in inflicting it upon them. I want every person to be complete in themselves. Your himsa has no place in my mission.
Of all that anyone leading or teaching has to convey, the most valuable thing to cultivate and convey to others is
a moral conscience. Only such persons deserve to lead others, in any capacity. Anything less is a menace to society

In other words, what I am commenting on is not your
path, which is admirable, but your use of language,
which I feel undercuts your intent. Your sig state-
ment sounds very much like what most wannabee gurus
would say to students he wanted to fawn over him.
It has a quality of "Everyone else is incapable of
showing you what 'true' service is...only *I* am
capable of that." In my experience, such a state-
ment is proved only by providing real service, not
by claiming that one is providing it. Just a
suggestion...
