Thank you David.

I was not evaluating the progress of your case.
When I first decided to do TROM I downloaded the list and read it from Aug
2004 to present, to get an appreciation
of the group. My intention was to see who had a good grasp of the tech and
who had good results. 
This would allow me to have a safe terminal when I started doing the
process. 
But there is a lot of discussion and mental gymnastics akin to the argument
of how many angels can dance on the
tip of a pin, and very little on Level completions or success on having done
any one Level.

This is not to invalidate anyone, or all in the group. Sometimes an outsider
can see more because he has not interiorized
into the game that's being played.

It should always be considered, that when people are having difficulty
grasping the theory and concepts behind 
a process, the trouble may only be a dramatization of their own case. After
all processes are about case, and their 
study will result in some restim. That's understandable, but that is the
very reason why caution should prevail and
the need for Level 5 completions to put their two cents worth, as they would
have processed beyond the restim of
the process. 
In the meantime, "easy as She goes".  

Best wishes.

ElĂ­ G.

Hi Eli,

If you spotted that I'm not a Level 5 completion, you're quite right. 
Just finishing Level 3. Probably anyone who had completed 5 would no longer
characterise themselves as being in any one leg of the basic package; Dennis
Stephens spoke in the past tense about having been a Must Know.

My main point is the same as yours, that all the original materials of TROM
need to be kept available in their original form. Any responsible editor who
corrects spelling or punctuation should be up-front and transparent about
this; I believe I've done so in the pdf file of the TROM Manual on my blog.
And I'm sure Pete will be equally transparent with any new edition that he
publishes, allowing readers to easily make comparisons with earlier
versions.

Cheers,

David
