PJNunya, thanks for sharing your thoughts on different aspects,
I have read the “hidden hand” interview and do remember what they talked about.
I remember them talking about how “they” actually don’t want to be here, and after they are done here, they will have to go to a place to “re-pay” the karma of suffering they have caused.
It is an insightful read that explain some things about sts path.
In the contrary, there were discussion in the old bring4th about the hidden hand materials.
And some concluded that it actually could be a piece of writing coming from a fan of the law of one. Kinda like a “spin-off.”
The core of the message is to bring unity and understanding to both polarities. Etc.
There were other points that was brought up about that reading as well. Where the attitude and demeanor seems to be not very “sts” like. As in, it is not “hidden,” and there was a care for other-selves.
I wouldn’t link that article here, or maybe run it by Patrick first.
I personally don’t think that is true sts materials, but it “could be” and that would cause problem to the policy we have on this forums.
The info though, is ironically not very hidden. I’ve found it through googling in the past, and have discuss in-depth about it with others. Thanks for bringing it to the table though.
This also mean that in all lies, there are some truth, and in all truths, there are lies.
It is not to point towards the abstract of right and left. It is to understand that creation is “one.”
All is encompassing.
The reason I said that is because they used favoritism with you and made an assumption that others does not have “beautiful hearts.”
I’ve looked at other threads that funky have interacted in, and I do see there are conflicts between everyone.
I am not responsible for other threads since they are not my creation, but what I can do here is to mitigate any behaviors that leads to conflicts that is happening in other threads.
To me, each thread is a kindle and a fire that is burning and maintained by the firekeepers (The post creator)
Now others can come and sit by the fire, and perhaps even contribute.
This is welcomed, but if there are other motives behind it that create strife, or they are bringing issues from other threads over, then I have to speak up about it.
(I am not dismissing the issues Funky is having with the forums and perhaps others, but that shouldn’t warrant for the passive judgement about other members for not having “beautiful hearts” here in this thread.)
I am doing my best to set healthy boundaries, so people don’t step over the fire and treat this as their own place to litter personal strife.
I don’t feel you did anything wrong, your previous comment wasn’t polarizing in a sense you are taking sides, or starting issues.
we know that funky made posts about leaving the forums, so a welcoming surprise to see them still around is nothing to apologize about. I honestly would have said the same thing.
Absolutely, that is the beauty and joy of such a space.
