Kindly be mindful of the following points regarding the forum. Dialogue is thinking together - it isn’t debate - and it's inquiring together without end point or agenda. People come into the dialogue from their own place of understanding, which is not going to be your place of understanding. We’re here to communicate together, learn together and gain insight into our own thought; to receive and share our observations, not impose our views on others. Address the comments in a polite, considerate manner. By all means, ask for clarification, but challenge the comment, not the commentator. We don’t know enough about the others to make those judgments and we’re here to learn about ourselves, not to correct another's perceived personality flaws. If a comment brings an emotional response, look at that. Do you feel the need to defend? To attack? Time for some looking inward. Self protection results in war. Besides, the war is in each of us. Stop that war, and the rest will take care of itself. (For some suggestions on the nature of dialogue, please click here)

Either I'm oblivious to what I'm writing, or you keep misunderstanding them: one of the two.

Good atleast you consider that you could be totally oblivious.  You can start from there.

Of course joe. I've been aware of that for a while now. I haven't the slightest resistance to her closure.  There is no shortage of open hearts in this world--far from it. In fact I would say there is an endless supply.

Oh, no, let's not get personal. It's not important: let's just say that I see chess as a stupid game, yet I'm playing it!

Indeed, you do many stupid things knowing how stupid.  Thus far you've only played games.

I've been aware too that you're actually no better than these weak, wimpy minds of joes and bruces of the world, another interent troll who talks of nice beliefs like god and what have you. Now, you can sing and dance and make merry with the sheep.  It's where you belong, or fit well.  Goodbye.  I can't come down to where you are, it's something I've left far far behind and after a few moments of freedom you've fallen into it, the stream of consciousness.  Flow on...

Re: why do you believe krishnamurti

Hi pearl. I have no doubt that you can easily conjure up 500 more insults and labels to apply to me.  In fact is there any derogatory label or insult that doesn't apply to me? Seems like I am pretty much the full spectrum, yes?

As for me, I find it rather impossible to label you at all.  The only thing I can say about you at this moment is that my body feels your pure and radiant heart, and it also feels the shells covering it. Beyond that, there is nothing to add.

Re: why do you believe krishnamurti

What?  You think you can say and do anything and when someone as much points out the fallacy of it, you feel labeled, insulted?

As for feeling my heart, or mind you have not come close to it.  You don't have to, trust me.

Re: why do you believe krishnamurti

please, pearl and eden, could you consider to continue this quarrel privately ?
it can be an inquiry into the human condition to see writings like this but it's more of the same now..
