Hi Erica and all of you,
My view is:
Hmm...
Apparently my words wasn't absorbed in the manner I intended.
My point writing the below remarks to Wry wasn't as I see it a personal
attack - litterally speaking.
My point was, that Wry has in her past 5 emails or so made a good job of
telling others
what they shouldn't do - and claiming that she knew better.
In this last email of hers I thought she went to far, and I wanted Wry to
understand, that she still needed learning and maybe som new "panties". I
didn't think I was attacking her. At least, that wasn't my intention.
I do'nt hope that I have offended anyone, Wry included.
Sorry if my english is a little rusty from time to time.
The question I will put to you is:
Do we not from time to time need to know, when we are doing something, which
is wrong ? And if so, when and how etc... ?
AND if never, - when will we then learn - if a personal - wellmeant -
remark is what realy IS needed ?
This list Theos-Talk exchanges views, allegories and information of
different kinds. The words used can always be interpreted in more than one
mode of thinking.
If you think there is an attack, well then that is your thought. And you
could ask your self the question why you reacted, in the manner you did.
Then you will learn, and that is good for you. Right ?
So to Wry I can only say: My last email to you was wellmeant. I honestly do
hope, that you take care.
Sometimes I feel, that a great number of Theosophist lack, what more
ordinary people would call - spiritual humor.
But maybe I am just throwing handfuls of crumb-words like the wellknown
Mulla Nashruddin:
{ SEE WHAT I MEAN? Nasrudin was throwing handfuls of crumbs around his
house. "What are you doing?" someone asked him. "Keeping the tigers away."
"But there are no tigers in these parts." "That's right. Effective, isn't
it?"}
And I don't hope, that Wry is a hindu sage or something. Well I do not, just
to mention it consider my self as being a dog of any kind what-so-ever, and
certainly not the one in the below joke... >:-) :
"A friend of mine once went to see the chief of state of a certain
country. When they were walking on the grounds of the presidential place, a
large and fierce-looking dog tore the loincloth off a Hindu guru who was
also
present and, barking loudly, cornered him by a wall. Now this guru had the
reputation of being able to tame tigers with a glance, but he obviously had
no such way with dogs, and he called out to my friend to do something.
The visitor said, "A barking dog does not bite."
"I know that and you know that," the guru shouted back, "but does the
dog know that?" ---"
I do hope, that you understand the jokes, and that you not do consider these
as a personal attack on you or others !
And maybe it is time for this "WC" Leadbeater debate (which some here at
Theos-Talk are concerned with) to leave its toilet or something and face the
present realities at United Nations. >:-)
And as for the boiling Europeans:
I don't hope, that the GreenHouse gases takes them all by surprise >:-)
Have a Smile....
Allright. It is (sort of) serious, what is going on at UN. I can agree on
that.
But, without the theater, which the USA-Iraq conflict have created, where
would the world be today ? I call it a theater, because according to me, the
conflict is (partly spiritually) constructed, so that people around the
world can develop by it. But, that is just my humble view, and I don't
expect people to agree or understand it. The problem is, if the theater runs
out of control or if it already for some days has been so.
According to me the last last remark is the true one. Bush some days back
went too far in his rethoric statements, and that is a price one has to pay.
It is often cold on the top, you know.
Control is according to me only reached again through a CLEAR and strong
opposition towards USA and Brittain etc... ! A wise opposition. If such an
clear and strong opposition not emerges, then a great number of people will,
I think, pay a though price. The present opposition seems to me to be almost
sizzy like. But, that is maybe a male thing I have.
And Erica - you are always welcome to mail me. I mean no harm.

M. Sufilight with peace...and love...and tears in his small eyes...
