TorquiseB writes snipped: Uh...not exactly. I think it's *you* (Jim Flanegin) who needs to go back and read the words attributed to Gangaji. While what you say about "getting it" is true, what I saw as implied in her statement was the phenomenon I have seen so many times, TMers taking *longer* TO get it, because of their conditioning. So the analogy is more like a lot of people eating ice cream for years and years, while denying vociferously that they have ever tasted it. Then one day the taste "sinks in" and they have "finally" tasted ice cream. :-)
Tom T: I don't believe I said longer Barry. Harder might be more appropriate. She felt it took more understanding to break through but the plus side of that was that they got it more completely and it seemd unshakable. Besides who cares. Stop the arguments and get with the understanding. If anything stands in anyones way on the path is the need to argue. Give that up and see what happens. Be willing to be wrong always. Be willing to be the dumbest kid on the block or here in our tidy sand box. Be willing to just be, Tom
