pardon my barging in but I feel I must help poor misinformed Tomato.

RE- talking to GOD. Tomato, God quit using phone lines in 1991 (especially Pac Bell). She found them to restrictive after discovering full duplex modems. Telephony via the omnipresent net is her prefered means of communication. And as she will be doing a lot of talking to a lot of people in the run up to the millenium this post is also a stock promotion. Buy net telephony companies. They will be a divine investment.

Tomato,

You ask why Whoever speaks of only 8 folds in the path while the Boozers are into 12. Does it make any da!n difference if you are looking for a key ring with 8 or 12 keys on it. If you can't find it it just don't matter.

Ghunk is right when telling the story of Whoever looking for the keys. If you, or I, want enlightenment, well all we need to do is go find it. As long as we try we are sure to succeed.

From my point of view its a sum zero game. Again, thanks to the Gooey One and with no respect for pronouns, if you really want it, go where no body else is gonna bother to help you ...because that's where I 'll find it anyway.

One final observation on your post. With great respect to you, your outline indicates you spent a number of years being trained to be a quarrelsome, questioning, litigious pain in the r's. In my most humble opinion this will not work well for you in the field of enlightenment seeking. I know some would dispute this, but I really don't believe there are any posted rules. All the structure and guides, and other soma seeking trivia are just there as window dressing. You got to get down on your knees and hunt up them keys as best you can.

Remember this is your thread, you started it....

I should go looking for my keys...

regards,

mnmuench

Tomato, Tomato, Tomato....(sigh). Well, I read your post and
would love to reply. But, knowing the cute little ying-yang as I do,
and knowing that all vacuums are filled with something good or
bad, but filled with something, I kind of wonder if your predisposition
to strongly dislike the concept of the Christian God is because
you might have more than casual knowledge of LeVay's
thing.

I know, a terrible question, and one I only ask because you're in the
land of fruit and nuts, from which I recently escaped, and very
much the heartland of the above. Care to comment? I think it
is only fair to give the basis from which you view things.
