Dear M e, List,
 
Well, I'm not sure any list rules were broken, with the exception of Joe's  
post back in May and, perhaps, Joyce's recent odd response to M e. (Thanks  
for the explanation!)
 
BTW, I believe M e is a woman,--at least It's fairly unusual for men to  
curtsy. :))
 
The broken rule is that of respecting others' paths.  Joe told me he did  
receive a lot of flak for that post.  (but perhaps not "on list")  
 
As a side note, I remember one of Mystress' posts years back that said  
perhaps Osho used the Rolls Royces as metaphor for western excessive  
materialism. (I'm really paraphrasing here!)  But it's interesting that  
Krishnamurti  loved cars also.  :))
 
There are also, (or used to be) a couple of people here on the list who's  
path is "Guru buster."  Don't know how to resolve that contradiction!  LOL!  
 
I understand your frustration and wanting to set the record straight, M e.   
It's interesting, though, that flame wars most often begin with trying to  
defend others--(in this case Osho).  In almost every case "others" don't  
really need defending!  I frequently fall into this trap too. :))
 
That said, welcome to the K list!  I hope you will just jump in when the  
spirit moves you!  
 
Love, Hillary
