I don't agree with that at all. Emotional good health might be related to loving another genuinely but I know that true emotional honesty also comes with acknowledging that some actions or beliefs of your loved one are not lovable and to experience that with all the implications that might lead to is the way to go, for me at least. There are moments when I might feel real anger or disgust toward my "loved ones" and in that moment the love has taken a second row seat although it's still in the audience. Love is great but so are all the other emotions you might experience in a day or a week or a year and this includes other things than love. I think it is mood making if one weren't to acknowledge that one's "loved ones" can't be unlovable in moments or are seriously flawed and in those moments love can be overshadowed because one is being honest. --- <jedi_spock@...> wrote : I think share is a little confused. Whhhhhhhhhhhhhaaaaaaaaaaaattttttttttttttttttttttt! Love and hate are extremes. Like and dislike are moderation. The phil of Gita is to be moderate and maintain equipose. Compassion is a tracendental quality. Passion is a terrestrial quality. Maharishi in his BG commentary does mention that the enlightened man does have likes and dislikes. You have disrupted a very instructive conversation between 2 women who know exactly what they are talking about! Ann, when she differs, does so like a normal person: That is fascinating Share. I don't agree with that at all. You, on the other hand poke your snout in with: I think share is a little confused. I'm coming back to you! Hey Danny boy, You are the one who pushes your butt into all the conversations here. I tell you, it stinks.! Yes I expect that it does. The world is as you are. I guess your response will not deal with calling Share a little confused. Nice avoidance of reality, Mr Spock. No emotions, I expect. "These "post the most" characters – one in particular – have been around since the beginning.

Or that other people on the forum are actually encouraging them to do so and egging them on in their psychosis, as they did previously with other mentally unbalanced posters like Ravi and Robin. IMO, the group's already dead. Rick's just hoping that it attracts vultures to perform a Tibetan "sky burial," so he doesn't have to spring for a funeral. :-)" (turquoiseb) No need for me to bother with you, life has already done that Turq.
