I agree but they tend to take offense if you say that to them. Though what
they do can be very helpful to the Kundalini process as well as to the
physical body and its functioning.
>Respect for other paths is a list guideline.
A path that has only one walker in the history of the universe is a very
loose definition of that term. I have a friend who teaches in the Religious
Studies department of the local university. He speaks of a religion with one
follower, the leader. It became a field of study when prisoners began making
up religions with odd "scaraments" to get to do things that were otherwise
against the rules for people put away from society for their sins against
other members of society.
But be that as it may, if that person's path says your path is a lie, has he
not shown disrespect for your path? So are you both to not post or is the
first poster given rights to not follow guidelines but the person whose
tradition he is saying is a lie not to respond?
>Your debating opponent was polite in his disagreement.
That is one opinion. Changing the topic line each and every post hardly
follows net etiquette. Refusing to address questions other than to say he
was the expert may be considered polite but it is not much of a debate.
>I dunno, I'm a Shaman, spirit taught me directly.
Interesting, most of the Shaman I know also had teachers. Well since we
haven't met, all of the Shaman I know have or had teachers.
>If you could honour your debt and the list guidelines both, that would
>be good.
I have not violated list guidelines on this one. I simply stated a well
documented position and asked for something to support the preposterous
statements he made. He couldn't and never did.
What guideline says we can't ask where someone got an idea that we've never
heard of before?
Namaste,
Joe
