Shemp, I did not "qualify the claim." I was honest. I gave you an "easy out" for your disbelief by telling you the exact truth of what happened. Some -- most -- students saw this stuff; some didn't. I didn't have to mention that. But it's the truth. Does this imply that the phenomenon of levitation was not happening on a gross, physical level. You bet your ass it does. But does it imply that the levitation wasn't really happening? Only if you believe that levitation is something that happens on the gross, physical level. You obviously believe this. I am happy for you, and hope that your certainty brings you much peace. > Either you did or you didn't. I did. You don't want to believe this. And *nothing* I can possibly say can change this situation. I'm being nice and explaining this, but *that* won't do any good, either. You entered (in fact, instigated) this discussion convinced that you knew the truth about what levitation "really" is, and you will leave the discussion the same way. > It sounds to me like you're playing a game of spiritual-one- > upmanship: I'm special...I've actually experienced someone > levitating. I'm supposed to lie and say I haven't? I have. So have maybe two or three thousand other people who studied with Rama over the years, and thousands more who saw him do this stuff in public lectures. Doesn't sound all that special to me. :-) > May I suggest that if you have, indeed, experienced such a thing > that you keep it to yourself instead of bragging to everyone that > you experienced something that 5,000 years of recorded human history > would come to a standstill if even the remotest possible proof was > offered to its reality. You are fooling yourself. No one would fucking notice if scientific proof of levitation was found tomorrow. Nothing would happen. People would read about it and do exactly what you are doing right now.
