The feeling I get from your posts is that you're trying to sum up all of the things that you've read into several different posts in such a way as to seem like your giving us little lectures about things which, although interesting to some degree, are nothing new.

I think that message boards like this are useful in the way that people like us can say, "hey, I've got a problem I'd like to ask about" or "I just discovered something amazing this afternoon" or "how are you guys doing" or etc.

Speaking to each other as comrades rather than as people you'd like to teach.

I'm definitely not saying that I think I'm 100% on the mark as far as you are concerned, but these are the feeling I get from you, and have gotten from others before.

Well summed up, ensonar. I read the first few of true's posts in various threads but then, also, felt like they were going around in circles. I was inclined to post something like you've stated here because they do sound like monologues of sort (preaching) but then figured, neh, I couldn't be assed.

I realise now that what seemed to bug me about his/her style was the fact that I heard my own voice sounding just as preachy (remembering a few posts I've made). So for that, I thank you, true.

In regards to non-dualism and other teachings. On the surface they seem glib, convincing and reasonable but when you get down to it, are really dealing with effects. To me anyway. The cause is the flyer's mind. Bratschewarrior (or however you spell it) put it nicely in another thread: We are not free. We are not free. We are not free.

To see energy is my prime concern. I'll leave it at that before I start preaching.
