************* The following message is relayed to you by [email protected] ************ Dear Ant,
Thank you for responding. At the same time I want to express my appreciation for keeping TROM in public view for so many years notwithstanding your slightly skeptical attitude towards TROM and Dennis. For myself - TROM has been a revelation of magnitude. Whenever I am in a quandary about something I re-read TROM. I have decided that 2011 will be the year in which I complete level 5. I have allowed myself to be distracted by a large number of other rave practices the last 10 years. To sooth my ego of being thought of as a blinkered believer I am willing to discuss the merits and demerits of other related practices. I hope you have a very happy new year and keep Ivy mag going for as long as there is breath in your thetan. lol Regards, Martin On 2/Jan/2011 12:01, Ant Phillips wrote: > ************* > The following message is relayed to you by [email protected] > ************ > > > > Dear Martin and each other list member. > > At 21:51 01-01-2011, Martin Foster wrote: >> I would be very interested in the two early processes you mention that >> Time-breaking is based on. > I do not think I have claimed that it is "based on" anything.
