I changed my day so I could delve into what you had written - I have gone
through a lot of it and it answers most of my questions. Mainly I wanted to
know if you thought Rama was legit in the beginning and if you witnessed any of
the power or sidhi demonstrations he did. Obviously yes to both.
I had a hard time reading much of it because I began to feel a great deal of
energy as soon as I started reading, I mean LOTS of energy. So I am taking the
reading in stages. Read a little. Sweep my floors a little, clean the
bathrooms, come down off the energy a little and read a little more.
Two minor questions I have are:
Did you know this guy? Mark Laxer
Have you ever read his book Take Me for a Ride: Coming of Age in a Destructive
Cult Paperback?
If so is it accurate?
That's all - back to the energy now and thanks for talking and thanks for
writing about Rama and all the other things you wrote about.

Thanks Barry - I am gonna read what you have
written and if I have any questions after that, I'll
send 'em.
Got a busy day today, but I intend to start reading it later
tonight.

do it privately if you like cause I know some on here are
going to revile you no matter what you say. So can we
talk?
I don't mind, as long as you
understand a few things at the outset. First, I rarely
even
think about the dude any more, except when something
triggers a memory, as something you said in one of your
posts did yesterday. Second, I don't waste my time
either condemning or defending him -- he was what he was,
and I don't much care what anyone thinks about him.
Third, however, and as you say, if we do it here you can
expect a lot of "piling on" from stalkers here.
They'll do it for various reasons. Some will start
piling on when they hear tales of thousands of his
students
witnessing siddhis they've *still* only read about,
after 30 years of pursuing them and after paying thousands
of dollars to supposedly learn them. Some will pile on
because they don't like me, and they mistakenly
believe
that if they diss a former teacher I still have some
positive feelings about, it'll push my hot buttons the
same way me saying things about MMY pushes theirs, and
thus
I'll react and get into one of the Robin-like
"confrontations" with them they so hope for.
That's not gonna happen, so we might as well do it
here.
:-) But I'll warn you ahead of time that my attention
span for "things Rama-related" is pretty damned
short these days, so if you have questions, make the first
few "count," because at some point I'll get
tired of the whole thing and bail. :-)
That said, ask anything you want, and I'll do my best
to
answer your questions as honestly as I wrote "Road
Trip
Mind." That would be a good place to start if you are
actually curious about the dude. I wrote it to get the
Rama-monkey off my back, and it worked. I don't
actually
have a great deal more to say about the guy than I said in
that book.
