Bill, the root of all our "differences" is that I am accepting the notion of egoity as self-contraction arising in the Divine, and you are not.
Thus, (in my lexicon) what you or I perceive is filtered through the ego. Your frustration with what you perceive is what you (as ego) are adding to the equation. You blame that feeling on the "trigger" which is what someone says, writes or does. Maybe you don't understand what is said or done, but you blame it on faulty communication on the part of "the other".
"If God is The All then all paths are "true paths" to God"
At the level of the Absolute, of course. But you obviously do not believe this at the level of the personal, otherwise you would not find fault with what I convey of Adi Da, or what Frederick says about "prime numbers" or what somebody else says about Satanism, for example.
How to explain the multiplicity of paths? --the seeking-ego at various times and places and in various cultures.
If you expect Adi Da to say "hey it's ALL right, EVERYTHING is equal to everything else, just do what you are doing and it will all work out fine" then some other Teacher would work better for you than Adi Da. However, when you go anywhere near the esoteric Teachings of any true Teacher, you will find that they are full of demands of one type or another.
Namaste!
