Hi Martin and rest of list,

I have a few more comments to make on this
interesting post by Martin:

I had to chew a little on this one. :)

But I see your point.

By saying that non-judgement is "the way
to go", one may end up judging those who
do choose judgment as a mode of thinking.

One ends up b/n the rock and hard place. :)

My personal choice in these puzzles is to try
and extend sympathy to all. :)
Even those who do not share my views.

OK, it's all a personal choice. :)
I'm not contending, just thinking out loud.

Oh, and one more thing.

You say that awareness of the existence of
fascism and the wish to do something about
this problem
has increased a lot in the world after WW2.

I agree with you on this. :)

But I sometimes wonder whether fascism
and Nazism was ever throughly understood,
not as a political force or an economic
factor, but as a human and spiritual power.
What was / is the attraction in fascism ?

I have been trying to find that out.

I think most ppl are very scared of looking
directly at this question for fear of seeing
themselves there.

>Killing for Jesus? I don't know.

LOL ! The latter does not sound very nice.
Many ppl have tried that approach.

My personal view on this, the energy and
its usage, is simply to use the energy of
contempt of weakness, and the intense wish
to unite in a particular cause,
which Nazism and
fascism in heart is (among other things),
and direct it to oneself for spiritual means.
A sort of tantra in other words.

Accept the feeling is there, accept the
sensations of weakness and wanting to crush
that, accept the wants of uniting in a cause,
and go from there, use the energy in a
personal and non destructive way.

I don't know, difficult...

Just wanted to share some thoughts on a
topic that's close to my heart.

Best regards,

Amanda.
