Not content with the "Robert, my direct memories of my awful past lives piss on your psychic's recounting of your own awful past lives" posturing, now emptybill trots out the olde standard "My spiritual dick is longer than Vaj's spiritual dick because I've read more books of other people's seeings, and better books at that" routine. If it helps to make this future past life as awful as the last one in your future memories, Bill :-), I think what when you get into this stuff both of you come off like posturing dweebs caught in what seems to be an eternal game of oneupsmanship. In other words, no matter what the content of a dispute between the two of you, it always boils down to "My spiritual dick is longer than your spiritual dick." How boring. To his credit, Vaj tends to recognize the nature of such contests and exit from them quickly, before you can turn them into a meaningless Steinist 100-post exercise in dick-measuring. You both could be debating the relative merits and batting statistics of your preferred baseball teams and it would be the same dick-size contest and with the same vibe IMO. Not being a sports fan, I find such dick-size contests boring. Not being given to measuring my own spiritual experi- ence by how many books about *other people's spiritual experiences* I've read, I find your pseudo-academic harrangues against Vaj equally boring. The only difference I will present between the two of you is that Vaj occasionally presents some stuff *for its benefit for the potential seeker* -- a technique that might be of interest, a book or research project that some might find interesting, etc. To date I do not remember ever having seen you do this on this forum. You seem limited *to* dick- size contests and Vaj-demonization. Got any other plays in your playbook? In other words, Vaj seems to occasionally transcend the "bash TM" thang and post some knowledge *just for knowledge's sake*. I have never seen you do so. You post stuff only to show your superiority to someone you want to put down. Which do you think reflects more highly on your respective spiritual paths and backgrounds?
