Dear Bob,

thank you very much for sharing your experiences, that's awesome. So my 
intuition that you had a great deal of interest in people declaring 
enlightenment was spot on after all..:-). Anyway, since cleaning the clock was 
the favorite phrase of this week, I have to say you were the only person to 
clean my clock..LOL..that takes a special, unique bird err..turkey to do that. 
And that explains my love, appreciation for you.

Jason,

Thank you; your clarification was appreciated. I certainly
agree with you about Barrykins, but not about Jim, Ravi or MZ. 

When I was a proud member of the TMO, a little shy of 4
decades ago, some initiators were popping into enlightenment, like home brewed 
near
beer in an over heated attic, and it used to irritate the shit out of me. I was
old school, and figured the number of people I initiated was the only metric
Maharishi cared about, and, at the time, I thought if all I cared about was
what *I thought* Maharishi cared about, my enlightenment would take care of
itself. I initiated a lot of people, and was blessed with a lot of time around
Maharishi, and, I figured---some of my enlightened peers, seemed like complete
losers when it came to my metric.

Fast-forward, 35 years after leaving the TMO, I join FFL,
and, sure enough, my metric and me pick up right where we left off. The only
problem, was that as I proceeded to try and become FFL's biggest turkey, with a
keyboard, I noticed people like Jim, Ravi, MZ, Rory and others---who had made
it clear, they were either experiencing, or had previously experienced, a
higher state of consciousness, not only seemed to be having more fun, but
seemed to be one fu*k of a lot more tolerant, and frankly, more emotionally
developed then most of us questioning their veracity. So I had this moment of
clarity when I concluded: Why not, and, Who am I to question
someone else's internal landscape. Since then I've been enjoying myself
on FFL one hell of a lot more. I'm even thinking; if I hang around, some of the
light may rub off on me. 

I had my palm read in Baalbek years ago, and this very
pretty Lebanese lady told me I was a young soul. So I figure, after I come back
as a slug, along with Barry---a few times, I may get another kick at the can,
as a human, and, if nothing else, I can say I knew Ravi, Rory, and Jim---back
in the day, when they were sentient beings.

I certainty respect your right to think everything above is
complete nonsense (except the part about the Lebanese lady being pretty); I
enjoyed your post to me and wanted to share my experience. Another possibility
is that this is just my way of trying to trick Tom into restarting his posting; 
if
he does, I plan to throw another I Ching for (at) him.

Jason, baby:

Are you a hired gun? And why the silence all this time—coming in now when the 
shooting has more or less stopped.

Your posts have a sense of immediacy about them; I am surprised you kept your 
gun in your holster all this time.

I would only say one thing: the extremity of your anger on behalf of Barry and 
Vaj is a substitute for anything sincere you might really have to say.

So the violence and the abuse is to make up for the fact that, when it comes 
down to it, Jason baby, *you have nothing to say*.

What the fuck is your point? When you attack someone, you must realize, that in 
order to be taken seriously, we must feel the sincerity behind your passion.

This post, and the one preceding it, are entirely manufactured out of a 
perverse charity on behalf of two persons who themselves have nothing more to 
say.

What is left to say? Something coming from some anonymous assassin—someone as 
far as I know, who hasn't posted on FFL during all the time that these 
discussions have gone on.

Do you know Vaj and/or Barry, Jedi Spock?

Look at your first two sentences: the violence of your words makes it seem as 
if my reluctance to enter into a private offline conversation with a poster I 
do not know personally is somehow the hard and indefensible response of someone 
who hates small children and dogs.

I'm afraid you're going to have to do better than this, Jason, my boy.

I look forward to your committing yourself to the disclosure of what possibly 
could be behind these two posts—other than acting as a surrogate someone else 
(who has been silenced).

So, bring it on, Jason; I'd like to find out there was some truth in what you 
have said here.

So far, though, you have made a convincing case that you are someone contriving 
to use whatever bitterness and anger is in you in the cause of something which, 
intrinsically, has nothing to with the very bitterness and anger you bring to 
these posts.

And where does the poor Pope come into this?

Jason, get a grip, buddy.

Oh. And by the way: some name-calling bathroom graffiti will not take the place 
of substance.—I refer to your next post in response to this one.

You are full of shit, Jason, until you can prove otherwise.

Now, tell me precisely what this is about—if, that is, it is not about acting 
as proxy for your two acquaintances?

That said, you have a nice day now, OK?

This might be fun. What do you say, Jason?

Robin

Fucking asshole, He just wants to send you a 
private message. So have a chat with him in 
private.
So, now you fuck with the Pope, do you? A

Yeah Robin's awesome. I just enjoy the way he slowly, methodically decimated,

He is just a fucking retard. A wannabe spiritual thug.

These retards feel so insignificant, insubstantial, inconsequential yet would 
like to be special; get jealous of the people who they think have attained some 
sort of specialness that they feel vey threatened by it. Fascinated with the 
personality, the elusive, evasive, enchanting perfection of the personality, of

Pathetic. Sad. Pitiful.

  Dear Jason,
  
  Compare the rhetoric of this last post of yours with the two previous ones.
  
  This disturbs me. If you were able to express yourself like you have in this
  last post, why did you Mr Hyde yourself in those first two?
  
  In the non-technical sense (literary) sense of the word, this seems
  schizophrenic. Or elseâ€I must withhold, given what you say here, this 
  other
  interpretation†it is classic Vaj.
  
  So, then, you only meant to insult whynotnow and Amsterdam. This seems 
  peculiar
  to me, since it is unusual for someone to take a violently negative position
  about two persons who are in conflict. The tendency is to assume you are 
  for one
  or the other. Evidently in this case, that is not true.
  
  I will, out of deference to your good will in this, leave that aside, then,
  except to say that whatever are the merits of whynotnow's claim to be
  enlightened, he writes with passion and sincerity, and in this particular 
  case,
  he is hitting his mark. For your judgment of him to stick, you should have 
  found
  something else to quote, as you lampoon yourself by not recognizing the
  appositeness of his little dialogue. I must suppose that the adjudication 
  of Big
  Sur did not bother you in the least, then, even as he was commenting 
  favourably
  on whynotnow's little dialogue.
  
  As for myself, you have called me a fucking asshole, a pseudo-enlightened

knowing TM, but here's why Buddhism will bring you salvation...

 ties to HHDL, it is like a knife through their hearts every time I fake it 
 with TM. But I HAVE TO, even though the last time over at my dad's, I

 his meditation cave in the backyard for three frikkin' hours!! Sitting on

 wouldn't hurt for you to ditch the bathrobe and look for work today...

Judy,

I, for one, miss you when you post out; yesterday would have been a lot more 
interesting with your contributions. 

I don't particularly question Barry's claim he peed on Einsteins leg, anymore 
than I question all his *fame by association* 

claims, but the first time I read a post with this claim, he also stated:


turquoiseb wrote:

For those interested in these sciency things, 
it looks as if the guy whose leg I once peed on (as an infant, mind you, 

and I have no memory of the event) may have been w...w...wrong about 
the speed of light. If my grandfather's story of me having some loss of 
bladder control while being bounced on his knee was correct, it was 
probably contact with my unevolved pee that eventually produced the 
mistake.


My reading of his post is that he is claiming his pee influenced Einstein's SRT 
(special relativity theory) which was 

published in 1905, his GRT (general relativity theory) work was published until 
1916, but it was 1919 before 

Sir Arthur Eddington proved the GRT which let to Einstien's Noble in 

1921, and, for that time, his rock star status. For Barry's claim to be 
accurate he would have to be more than a hundred
years old (maybe the wife is right: you're far to cynical)

I was thinking the same thing (albeit not as colorfully).

But this has been puzzling me ever since you first
mentioned it. Why do you think it's not possible that
when Barry was an infant, he sat in Einstein's lap?
I'm serious. What's with 1905? And why did you 
suggest that Barry would have had to have been
somewhat north of 106 for his story to be true? I'm
serious here. Einstein died in 1955; Barry was born
around 1946. Chronologically, it's entirely possible.

Even for you two nitwits; this is a new low. Why don't we just sum up what you 
two girlie boys have been up to in this post:

1. Aspiring screenwriter that the Vajette appears to be; I have a picture of 
myself sitting on a sand dune in the Kingdom's empty quarter, at about the same 
time Vajette claims this photo was taken; so according to how he thinks 
pictures are worth a thousand words, we can assume, just over the next sand 
dune, we'll find T.E. Lawrence, and his Bedouin army, cooling their 
heels---waiting for me to show up, and show them how to invade Aqaba. 

Yo Vajette, can I suggest, if you want some pointers on how pictures can 
support content, mosey on over to Jim's post of images to be included in King 
Babys *feelings* manual, and see how its done (you may *or may not* sit on the 
boards of *God knows* how many public companies, but when it comes to 
convincing narratives; you don't know shit from shinola); your old SX-70 
Polaroid, 1st gen snap seems to be as related to your claims as me on a sand 
dune must mean I invaded Aqaba with old T.E. in 1917 (no, I didn't also pee on 
Einsteins pants in 1905).

2. Not to be outdone; the boy, whose balls seem to be missing, decides this is 
a perfect time to slander someone who does not post on FFL, who no doubt 
wouldn't have given him the time of day, now or at any time (likely being one 
of those complicated women who have an opinion or two of their own), and 
attempts to use the type of information *his homey* regularly uses, that any 
loser can pick up on the Internet, to once again: I drove Clint to the Merv 
Griffin show; prove he not the biggest loser to ever grace FFL.

Yo KB, we understand how dramatized you were by Rama rejecting you, but there 
is another interpretation on his suicide, besides your rejection; like I said, 
no matter how much you act out, I doubt MZ will adopt you. 


10. Rama was the last daddy you'll ever have; if MZ wanted children I'm sure 
he'd aim higher than the
leftovers from a guy who offed himself, rather than face prison.

I forget what it was but I believe 
 it is some sort of pronouncement that HH Robin Carlsen is 
 holding in the picture, while Saint Gemma II looks on 
 concerned about the actions we're about to undertake, 
 probably marching onto the MIU campus or some such activity. 
 Since his psychotic break kundalini psychosis episode TM- 
 style enlightenment in Switzerland his sattvic countenance 
 was often protected from the rajasic rays of the sun by a 
 sacred umbrella.
 
 Notice the nervous and tense vibe in the seminar students. 
 This was a common vibe in the World Teacher Seminar because 
 if you weren't about to do something quasi-illegal - marching 
 onto private campuses, disrupting public lectures, etc. there 
 was always the chance that you could be declared demonic 
 if Robin and the seminar couldn't groove to your darshan 
 (while standing in front of an
audience, being drilled 
 at a microphone, in a basement somewhere).

That certainly looks like Gemma. She was on my TTC, where

She was having some intermittent flashes of what she

court and counseling others on how they could get
as enlightened as she was just by hanging around with
her and basking in her darshan. Sound familiar? :-)


Very much so. It's a pattern I've been literally observing for  
decades, and it clearly is a samsaric pattern.


What's interesting to me is that both G. and RWC became devout  
Catholics after this. Now there's a past life history that would  
likely be very interesting. I wonder if Robin has had any glimpses of  
a previous connection. They tangibly felt as if they were made for  
each other.

 Axis II disorders and oddly a perfect match for some Me Decade

Yup. The people drawn to such adore me so-called
teachers very often are seeking the same role for
themselves someday. Scratch a modern-day pretend
teacher and you'll almost always find that they
learned their trade from one or more other pretend
teachers cut from the same pattern.

 I remember specifically the moment I knew his World Teacher

Given how he reacted to my suggestion that he was
acting a lot like a closet drag queen trying to
seduce straight men with his modern-day adore me
and praise me routine here, one suspects that the
poor guy was right in keeping it hidden from Robin-ji.
It also speaks volumes about Robin himself that the
person who claimed to be able to see demons in other
people was incapable of detecting something as simple
and ordinary in one of their followers as being gay.

 The utter terror he felt was palpable and you could have

Well, from what I heard that is how the Canadian TM
organization reacted to *her* once she went back home
and continued holding court there. I heard -- although
I can't ever be sure that it was true because she was
on one side of Canada and I was on the other -- that she
was banned from the local TM center for doing this. And
we all know what happened to Robin when he started
holding court, don't we? Isn't it fascinating that
the first thing people who have been ostracized for
being off the program themselves do when they form
some kind of sub-cult is to set up a structure in their
own organizations that mirrors that behavior? It's
almost like the recurring situation of kids abused

That's a question probably best answered by the man himself. A lot of  
it allegedly hinged on his celestial perception but IMO much of it  
had do with whether or not the person was liked and capable of  
reciprocating that affection back to the ego of the interrogator. I  
use the word interrogator because not only did RWC confront students,  
but other students confronted each other. Often students would feel  
the ability to be vulnerable in a more private setting, with someone  
they knew, than on a stage in front dozens of people with a stranger  
from Canada.



I guess what I'm wondering is if there was the same
trend we have seen here. That is, that those deemed
demonic committed the moral sin of not considering
him as much of a legend as he considered himself, in
his own mind? :-)


I do believe that is part of the dynamic. I've seen the precise same

Dear Robin:

On Dec 1, 2011, at 12:03 PM, maskedzebra wrote:


Dear Vaj,

I also pooped in my diapers—I will try to get some photos for you.



That's fine, I have plenty.

Just for the record, I consider my Unity Consciousness to be a  
perfect hallucination. And the suffering and terror of coming out  
from under this preternatural illusion has been the theme of a  
significant number of my posts here at FFL.




While I understand you believe you were in Unity Consciousness, I  
hope you understand, that is not my belief, nor is it the belief of  
anyone else I know.


I was in a state, then, of mystical deceit—Had I now in my de- 
enlightened state of consciousness met myself then (the person in  
this photo: 1983) I would have done my best to persuade him he was  
deceived, and that his pursuit of good and evil in human beings was  
not only doomed to failure; it was itself a terrible misreading of  
the soul of a human being. And, as it turned out, I discovered over  
the course of the last 25 years, that problems I had (the motes in  
my eye) were more serious and multiple than any person who, I  
subjected to this metaphysical theatre of confrontation.




Thanks for sharing that. I'll share your remarks with others who  
would be healed in hearing that - esp. the one person who came along  
that night to DC merely because of the sense of woundedness he was  
still carrying.


In the metaphorical sense, then (since we are talking about a post- 
Monte Cassino universe) I was a great sinner. But you see, Vaj, I  
have spent so many hours explaining this before and after Unity  
Consciousness business, I am surprised that in posting what you  
have posted—causing some salivating in Amsterdam—you have tacitly  
implied that I would wish to defend my past from any criticism, and  
that there is a real continuum of my beliefs and actions stretching  
from 1983 to 2011. This is a misrepresentation of not only the  
facts, it is a misrepresentation of my entire philosophy of life.




I don't believe I am implying any such thing. But I do understand you  
may be extra sensitive on some of these issues. I would expect that  
you'd at least be in some penitential mode to the point where you  
were relieved of your own sense of dread.


Having said that, at least on the level of content, there are  
statements you've made and continue to make, that could only be  
uttered from a TB TM initiator who still was maintaining that true  
believer stance - at least in their mind, if not in their heart.  
Given your persistence, I'm almost forced to assume the latter (the  
heart) as well.



If I were (and I believe I will be in some post-Catholic context)  
brought before a divine tribunal to answer for my past, I would not  
spend much time attempting to justify myself; I would rather fall  
upon the mercy of that court, since I am acutely aware of how blind  
and reckless I was—almost unrecognizably so from the moment before  
I 'slipped into Unity'.


When I was in a very different state of consciousness, and when  
seemingly I was a very different kind of person. (If we are to  
judge by my behaviour.)


I was, before 1976, a person who you could not have imagined acting  
the part of the enlightened man (that is, in the form in which I did 
—about which, by the way, I seemed to have no choice: but this  
choicelessness, it originated in culpable weaknesses and  
distortions in myself, therefore I am accountable for my actions  
even in this state of spontaneous right action. But you see, Vaj,  
I have done my penance these 25 years, and it has been as harrowing  
and dark and violent—against myself—as anything that I inflicted on  
others.


Of course there was much to the whole enlightenment adventure which  
was magical and astonishing and beautiful. But at its core it was  
corrupt—because I did not know what infirmities in myself were  
being exploited—to make me go into Unity Consciousness—by the  
impulses of creative intelligence. So, I do not look back upon my  
actions at that time, with some sense of having done the will of  
God. I look back upon myself as having let my original LSD  
experience (1966) essentially determine the entire arc of my life  
for the next 20 years. But I have, under the inspiration of Thomas  
Aquinas—and resources made available to me which are part of the  
self-metapsychotherapy I have imposed upon myself—gone a very long  
ways to recovering from my romantic affair with the East and with  
Maharishi Mahesh Yogi.


What bothers me in the approach you are now applying to our  
conversation is the implication that I am, both personally and  
philosophically, in the same existential position that I was when  
this photo was taken.




I would assume the opposite, for to not move in some direction, any  
direction, would require you to go against the grain of your own  
evolution and therefore against grain of the kosmos - or the will of  
god. It is only the odd

I'm betting...Robin...reminds me of Gemma...in Fiuggi. 

***Must have been quite the crush, who knows---she might have been flattered, 
until you actually said something.  


This is pure speculation on my part. Pretty much in the same ballpark as his 
or any other posters' speculations about us.


***You're not going to start crying again. 


I'd say the two of you should be ashamed, but of course you'd miss the irony. 


What I'm really enjoying about your latest alliance KB is imagining where you 
go from here; back to the Rama forum?

Yo, Loser, The old, Look its Haley's Comet! routine ain't working.

Let's see if I can use my TM-Siddhi powers to reconstruct the scene, a day or 
two prior to your polaroid picture post:

Vaj: Fuck! Shit!

Vaj's wife: What's wrong honey?

Vaj: The fourth person this week on FFL is saying I never learned or taught TM 
- bastards, I'd like t...

Vaj's wife: Your-medication-is-on-the-bathroom-counter-upstairs (for the 
millionth time)!

Vaj: fuck...What?!

Vaj's wife: (sigh) Nothing!! When are you going to get rid of that crazy idea 
that the only time anyone is going to take your Buddhist teachings seriously, 
is if you say you used to be a TM Teacher? Just say, OK what's the big deal I 
didn't get within a mile of ever knowing TM, but here's why Buddhism will bring 
you salvation...

Vaj: Yeah, it *would* make my family happy...After all of their ties to HHDL, 
it is like a knife through their hearts every time I fake it with TM. But I 
HAVE TO, even though the last time over at my dad's, I mentioned that Intro 
Lecture I snuck into back in '74, and he sent me out to his meditation cave 
in the backyard for three frikkin' hours!! Sitting on those old stained 
magazines, its gross!

Vaj's wife: ...I know, you put up with a lot from him (rolls her 
eyes)...Anyway it wouldn't hurt for you to ditch the bathrobe and look for work 
today...

Vaj: huh?...Wait! I just found an old box of polaroids! I think I figured out 
to kill two birds with one stone...this'll distract 'em...bastards...

Vaj's wife: Bills are due!

Vaj: Look!!! Dearest, we've discussed this many times. This my life's work! I 
am saving the world! Tibet is for everyone! His Holiness...

Vaj's wife: OK...OK...OK...O...K... (whispered to her sister on the 
phone: I hate it when he gets like this)

  umbrella, Fairfield, IA. � Vajranatha 1983
 
 Here's a picture I took outside of a church in FF with my old SX-70 
 Polaroid, 1st gen. I forget what it was but I believe it is some sort 
 of pronouncement that HH Robin Carlsen is holding in the picture, 
 while Saint Gemma II looks on concerned about the actions we're about 
 to undertake, probably marching onto the MIU campus or some such 
 activity. Since his psychotic break kundalini psychosis episode TM- 
 style enlightenment in Switzerland his sattvic countenance was often 
 protected from the rajasic rays of the sun by a sacred umbrella.
 
 Notice the nervous and tense vibe in the seminar students. This was a 
 common vibe in the World Teacher Seminar because if you weren't about 
 to do something quasi-illegal - marching onto private campuses, 
 disrupting public lectures, etc. there was always the chance that you 
 could be declared demonic if Robin and the seminar couldn't groove 
 to your darshan (while standing in front of an audience, being 
 drilled at a microphone, in a basement somewhere).

Hey Robin:

On Dec 1, 2011, at 2:20 PM, maskedzebra wrote:

RESPONSE: Ah, I think you may have touched a nerve here, Vaj.  
Finally. If you are referring to Gary (and I hardly think it could  
be anyone else), then, yes, Gary was a faithful and generous person  
when it came to my seminars—I recall especially meeting with him  
and Marilynn in a Manhattan hotel after giving a seminar: that was  
our best contact ever.


No, it wasn't. If I was I would have given some indication.

When I went to extremes and started to turn on those I loved most— 
and then went over to the Catholic Church—Gary was nonplussed and  
felt betrayed—a very natural and appropriate response. He came to  
DC to attempt to resolve the issue of this destabilization of his  
world—based upon the breakup of the whole Robin Carlsen enterprise.  
He came armed with my astrology chart—as if in reading this to me  
he could get closure on this whole business by proving that my  
chart explained me. I resisted (as you know). I wish I could have  
been as unconfused and coherent—in some profound sense—as I feel  
that I am now in comparison to what I was then. And I ask you to  
pass on my sincere best wishes to Gary and his family. I have  
nothing but the most positive memories of him and Marilynn. Good  
people. I know there are others who, as you say are carrying the  
sense of woundedness. I wounded others; I wounded myself. But it  
is a very complex story and neither Gary's experience nor mine will  
be the last word on all this.


Yours, maybe.

  In the metaphorical sense, then (since we are talking about a  
post-

  Monte Cassino universe) I was a great sinner. But you see, Vaj, I
  have spent so many hours explaining this before and after Unity
  Consciousness business, I am surprised that in posting what you
  have posted—causing some salivating in Amsterdam—you have tacitly
  implied that I would wish to defend my past from any criticism,  
and
  that there is a real continuum of my beliefs and actions  
stretching

  from 1983 to 2011. This is a misrepresentation of not only the
  facts, it is a misrepresentation of my entire philosophy of life.
 

Vaj: I don't believe I am implying any such thing. But I do  
understand you

 may be extra sensitive on some of these issues. I would expect that
 you'd at least be in some penitential mode to the point where you
 were relieved of your own sense of dread.

RESPONSE: Apart from attempting to provide some evidence for your  
claim to know me, what, pray tell, was the purpose of posting that  
photo?


You guessed correctly the first time. I had to pick from several  
others and the other contender, from a private party, has you in the  
center on a hastily constructed throne, but also, perfectly poised  
and in crystal clear focus was your former attorney, VMc.


It seemed harmless enough; but once you started commenting on the  
psychological state of the persons in the photo, once you began to  
interact with Barry, once you brought in names of persons who now  
have nothing to do with me, you were, surely you were, Vaj, linking  
my recent posts to myself in my past life such as to take something  
off the sting of my demand that you tell the truth.


Well I was trying to place the picture in context. I feel it is  
important to convey an objective context of the situation. Now  
thinking back on it, that might have been the painting of SBS you  
were holding, no?


Now don't try to psychologize me; you are a neophyte in this realm.  
And you still evince not a inkling of understanding or intuition  
such as to make me even consider you have any idea of the person  
that I am—or even the person that I was. It is all this Walter  
Mitty thing again—but in this instance, with a sense of revenging  
yourself.


sigh.

Hi Robin:

 Dear Vaj,
 
 When it comes to your death, ask that you might just die a little; ask if you 
 can hold back something of yourself; that you don't want to go all the way. I 
 say this because this certainly will be your first inclination when death 
 comes on. I am only getting my inspiration from what St Francis called Sister 
 Death: she awaits, Vaj. Why not make things easier on her, so she doesn't 
 have to make you go through something which would make you wish you had taken 
 the cue from that Canadian guy? Death; think about it, Vaj; because there you 
 will really be on your own, and you will realize that you have not exactly 
 made your actions here at FFL a preparation for that moment. It's coming. 
 It's coming for all of us. What do you think the verdict's going to be? in 
 the consensus of Sal, Barry, and yourself? Or in the consensus of almost 
 everyone else here at FFL and all the good angels to boot.

Wouldn't it make sense to try dying out before you die R.? No I'm not trying to 
convince you to commit suicide. Not even die daily as Yeshua advised…but at 
least try it out.

 
 You seem to misunderstand me, Vaj: I am not writing here at FFL to defend my 
 past actions as the man in Unity Consciousness. I am here to work out my 
 salvation—if I can use what was once a literal fact but which now must now be 
 a metaphor. Posting at FFL has done a lot of good for me in this endeavour. I 
 wish the same for yourself. But just look at what you chose to select out 
 from my last two posts—conspicuously ignoring all the points that would 
 really make some demand upon yourself. Preferring instead to quote passages 
 which do not bear upon the essential point of our discussion. And to which 
 you make—consistently, unfailingly—responses which are of no purport.

IOW, I'm not playing the game you want me to play.

 If you want to advance this conversation to a just and final resolution, you 
 must risk something you have never thought to bring in, Vaj: your sincerity. 
 This you eschew—and I think out of a most insidious timidity and fantastical 
 compulsion. 
 
 But hey! I don't know anything here, Vaj: and guess what? I would just as 
 soon discover I was magnificently wrong in everything I have said about you, 
 as to know, and have it proven to me, that everything I have said about you 
 is correct. Do you realize, dear Vaj, you have not once attempted to defend 
 yourself on the grounds which I have challenged you?
 
 Why not just shut this baby down, Vaj—Oh, you want to go another round, do 
 you?
 
 Well, know this, Vaj: This is not a fair fight. You are being pummelled. But 
 the alarming thing is *you don't feel the pain*. Must I understand you can 
 even lie your heart out of its rightful experience? Because if you were in 
 touch with any ultimate truth, Vaj, you would see that I am working on behalf 
 of your true self.
 
 How's that for a little Canadian self-righteous obnoxiousness?

Typical?

 
 Well, I am alas quixotic in my sincerity—my irony serves—at least I hope it 
 does—my love.

I suspect you have a lot more irony in store for you - at least from my POV.

 
 Now shut the fuck up, Vaj, and call this one off. It is not a fair fight. 
 With Curtis, that was something different. Learn from him. Study his 
 responses to me.
 
 That said, by cracky I hope I am as deceived as I think I am undeceived about 
 you, Vaj.
 
 Do you realize what a thrill it would be for me for you to provide *just one 
 iota of proof* of a single claim you have made about TM, Maharishi, and me?

Maybe Alanis could write a song about it?

 
 That would be a riot, picking up the pieces after that. I think it cruel of 
 you to deprive all of us—well, nearly all of us—at FFL of this opportunity to 
 be disabused of our false and unjust interpretation of your behaviour.
 
 Well, I am going to be hoping for the Dream Team Eagles tonight when they 
 face those Pete Carroll Seahawks. The Patriots really gave their confidence a 
 licking last Sunday. Did you see that? Now tell me, is LSU or is Alabama 
 going to win it all this year?
 
 You need to watch Letterman, Vaj.
 
 Hold it! Check your motive in wanting to answer this. It is up to my motive 
 in laying down my challenge to you, Vaj? Think about this carefully; a 
 perfunctory, costing-you-nothing-of-your-soul response won't do. It might 
 look purty on your computer screen before it gets posted, but once exposed to 
 reality the whole universe will judge it.
 
 Stop bringing in names—even slyly using initials—of persons who have nothing 
 to do with me. You are violating their privacy, Vaj. This is the height of 
 moral gaucheness.

No, writing their entire names would be gauche R.

 
 See how Ted faced Sylvia's parents after she committed suicide? That, Vaj, 
 was the gold standard in being real. I quoted him as an example for you. (And 
 I quoted his personal review of Pinter for Barry the
