Editor's Note: Ok, I was in my mind that day. I was still a practicing premie, sorta. I was really interested in reading little insider stories about Maharaji and all I was getting was lots of talk and intellectual stuff.

Hell, I confess! I even used the infamous Move On.

I believe that I posted this to the News Group as the Forum might not have existed then. I vaguely recall getting hammered by Jim, himself, but I laid low and never came back. (P.S. to Jim: The name Little Jimmy Ziphyl had nothing to do with you. Just a streetname I was using then.)

The first line, Got your attention, now. Fighting words! was not a threat of violence, but the rude teasing using the phrase that we all dreaded and hated so much, you are in your mind, which was the subject of my post.

Lord, forgive me, I know not what I do!

Got your attention, now. Fighting words!

I've had it with you cynical, frustrated intellectuals and voyeurs.

Talk, talk, talk, words, words, words - fragmented disconnected blather.

The most dangerous thing, as it has always been, are the disciples and their endless misinterpretation of what the main guy says and their zeal to apply that thinking to other people for numerous self-serving purposes. And this News Group is no less dangerous than all the people who are still involved because some things never change.

I am especially enthralled by the guy who some 25 years ago was almost took the bait, but decided against it and now he's lurking here to satisfy his doubts. You guys are like unrequited lovers, left wondering and wanting. Forget it, move on - it's the 90s and it's happy days. Everybody is doing great and the Tao is gonna break 10,000 before the year ends.

Yeah, sure we all got burnt by all the BS that we heaped on each other, but ultimately I know (ouch, that word!) that there is an experience inside myself that is really cool and is always there. And that experience will be there regardless of what I do, what I think, what you do, what you think, and what he does or doesn't do, what you think he does or doesn't do. It is very difficult to let go of how we think it should be.

So, skip all the pseudo spiritual soup and just serve up more Elvis Sightings and items of a sordid nature. Readership is plummeting and enquiring minds want to know.

Everyone of you now owes me two cents! The electronic funds transfer has already happened. Thanks!
