the Tibetan practise of tonglen makes one take on the other's suffering 
and give them in return your own happiness. The suffering is burned up in 
your heart. Visualize breathing in the ick & goo and sending out on the

You can't be serious with this? Are you actually suggesting that I go 
around fixing energy systems of the people who don't want it? It would be 
criminal and stupid, not to mention the waste of time.

Slow, inefficient, dangerous, unpleasant - there are better techniques for

Harsha kindly asks: Brother Jerry, what are extreme conditions? Does Knowing 
the Self as The Core of Reality an extreme condition? Does Knowing One's Self 
depend on extreme conditions or Near Death experiences etc. How could it be? 
How could the Natural State depend on "Other" events or conditions. In one of 
your earlier messages you said the Enlightened one faces a profound Dilemma in 
terms of how to transmit his message and is a master pretender. But I say the 
Sage has absolutely no Dilemma. The Sage is not a pretender nor is He deluded. 
There is no confusion about the nature of right conduct. There is absolutely 
no interest in psychic powers or the desire to demonstrate such. There is no 
confusion about the nature of Kundalini Shakti. There is no confusion about 
how to transmit the Knowledge of the Self. The Sage has very little to say but 
says it clearly and precisely. He says it again and again.

Danijel,Please do mention them instead of only attacking the concept of "Love" 
and "Compassion" in the tibetan sense they putted generations to perfect.
 
It's easy to destruct, harder to propose something better to replace what as 
been destructed.

>I want to thank those of you who responded to my questions.  Here's  
>another>one...would it be unwise to chant while driving?  
 
When I was chanting all waking hours, that included while driving.  I was 
on my way to work one day, a 30 minute drive, and while chanting some new 
words that came to me that morning, came to an instant realization that 
'I was already tHere', and everyone else, too, along with me.  At that 
moment, a vortex opened up to the top right of me and I was automatically 
 sucked into this tunnel at the speed of light, coming face to face with 
mySelf, where past-present-future was all Now, and many other 
realizations.  It was mind-blowing to say the least.  After going back & 
forth through this tunnel several times (and still driving when I would 
come back into my body), I still find it a miracle that I didn't crash 
the car.  The only reason I can think of for not crashing, is that it 
must have happened in an instant of earthly time, while I was OOB for 
quite a while. 
 
Now that is my side of the story.  I had a friend who chanted all the 
time (including while driving), and never experienced this.  He chanted 
'Om Nama...".   Each individual is different.  Follow your own heart.   
The *content* of the chant most likely may have had something to do with 
my experience too.   I would think that if you chanted words of peace, 
this is what you would receive rather than being thrown OOB.  
 
This is not a warning to you, as if I had to do it all again, I would do 
it the same way most likely.  This is just to let you know that even Self 
Realization and mystical experiences can come while driving a car... not 
just while meditating.

I already did that, the first or second day of my participation here. I 
gave even more detailed instructions to everyone who showed interest. If 
not, that's no problem of mine. I won't force anything upon anyone. It is 
just my opinion here, take it or leave it, but there is a lots of 
background in it, don't worry.

It is just that the idea of working on people who don't know it, who don't 
ask for it, who actually need that sort of energy - whatever I might think 
of it - is horrible to me. I actually do very similar things, karmic 
cleansing, on my students and other people who ask for it, but that is 
completely different thing in my opinion. If someone thinks he needs 
something, and I know it is not in his highest good, I will still do 
nothing about it unless it is wanted.

Dear List, to be honest i'm not really interested what enlightenment  
is, or how an enlightened being should look like. Ok, it matters, but  
not much, i can't judge them. The only thing i can do is falling in  
love with (don't know better words) a guru  , or not ofcourse. As i  
did with my wife. And god knows i learned from her! In my early days  
i was in a Gurdijeff group. I liked my teacher a lot, he felt like my  
grand-dad. At the same time i was attracted to Bhagwan (Osho). 
Finally i went to India. At darshan my face started trembling like  
hell. I stayed cool, practising the 'be aware, don't sleep' thing  
from the gurdijeff group. After that, sitting in front of him i made  
a mistake. I looked into his eyes. And I was lost/gone. He must have  
been talking to me for minutes, i just stared with open mouth into  
his eyes, not hearing a word. I can only remember his last words ' he  
said, 'be very alert, very alert!', LOL, i sure wasn't  
practising anymore... Anyway without a doubt i dressed up in orange,  
sentenced to answering questions about Rolls Royces ever since. When  
i came back to my gurdijeff teacher he took me apart, looked at me  
and said, you have to leave. One can't serve two masters. It was as  
if i had been hit in the face. It took me years to see that was also  
an act of love. And now, at the moment i'm falling slowly in love  
with Mother Meera. Frans.

Your talking about apples and oranges...if you are in union with God 
what more is there? This is not a state of in and out it is a state of 
consciousness that is total and unchanging. To have what you suggest 
means that you enter it and leave it and it is not that way.  Gloria

Yes I know that one. No this is the same thing that I wrote is copied 
over and over again. It is like at the end of this, it would be copied 
and copied several times.

Gloria here: 
When you come into the awareness of living in the moment, totally aware 
and in full witnessing, it is indeed a discovery of truth because being 
is what is spiritual. That means to be totally alive to the moment, 
detached from the results while consistantly continuing inside of the 
process without thought. This is brought about by becoming absorbed into 
the divine will stream until there is nothing but this.
