At 8 you sat in full Lotus ? Very good and congratulations ! I remember playing around with some friends, trying to contort our bodies into various positions, and I discovered lotus. Won a prize at a birthday party once for doing it. I'm comfy with having an accusatory little brain thank you very much. One day perhaps it also could understand how your activities can be called "innocent". Here's a hint: I try not to have an agenda. I'm not trying to sell or defend a point of view. My point of view can be more accurately described as a "points of view". That's why you'll find me posting very positive things about MMY/TM and then posting other things that might be construed as negative. I don't see them as negative so much as things that appear to have happened. I find it useful to try to accommodate the good, the bad, and the ugly in one brain. In other words, to not argue with reality. If I accept that a "negative" thing happened, that doesn't make me incapable of accepting the "positive" things, and vice versa. Besides, negative and positive, right and wrong, are very subjective judgments. Very much determined by cultural conditioning and very hard to ascribe any sort of absolute value to.
