Dear Paul,
There are so many Tonys. Why reserve your "had it" for just one?
Not too long ago, Susan and I had the displeasure of answering a simple
question on a list, where one could experience Shaktiput. By simple
associations, naming a Goddess religion site as one source, and because I
depicted myself as a Dominant Female in of one of my many personal profiles,
she and I both suddenly then became prostitutes and banned from that list. It
was yet another Tony.
Recently, I discovered Susan is not even remotely active in the alternative
lifestyles, which has absolutely no connection to prostitution anyway...
while I, meanwhile have been so busy in service to others, that I havent
ventured out on any time out myself for over two years... yet, among a
substantial audience we were called prostitutes. The perpetrator of this
bigotry still remains on this list and he calls himself enlightened and an
author.
The point I am trying to make? Will it really help to point out these severe
shortcomings of someone else who's ego is so thick they would never see
through their filtering system's inflictions on others anyway? My compelation
to defend myself on that list was censored by being banned and blocked. While
I was sitting there grovelling over a man who thinks women must ask their
husband's permissions before expressing themselves, the stories of the
Afganistan women riddled my desktop. All my foolish energy suddenly was
redirected to the message: There will always be something much worse than
anything or anyone Susan or I could be complaining about. And so I focussed
on prayers for the Women of Afghanistan and made another oath to myself that
my occassional consentual playtime of those severely judged alternative
rituals -- which are essentially designed to breakdown male ego and enhaunce
the ability to surrender -- was indeed a worthy act toward the seeking of The
Divine, and worth my persecution. Two millenium of Tibetan Buddhist Diety
personifying the Wrathful Mother, and I may only be a modern playful cartoon
of that...
It will always be a battle of ego and surrender, selfishness and
selflessness, yin and yang and everything in between.
Blessings,
Cat
