Yo, 7th, 
 Xeno is established in CC, seriously - It makes him appear overly logical, and 
kind of cold and remote. He also thinks he has reached the end of his 
development, the unremitting light of the soul, in CC, but he has a long way to 
go.

That's fine, if all you want to do in life is the thing you've adopted as your

It's not so fine if you were ever trying to actually communicate to the 
occasional lurker who might appear here, wanting to learn a little something

But I guess that's not what you're trying to do, right? You'd prefer to keep 
writing jargon-filled stuff that gets zero replies. Anyone who wants to reply 
has to come up to your level and stop being so ignorant. Did I get your 
position on all of this correctly?

How long has it been since you ever *gave* an intro lecture, Buck, or even 
wanted to? I know it's difficult to imagine, interacting with the unwashed

 Don't be an ass. I am not trying to suppress the use of jargon. I'm trying 
to get through to people who *no longer realizing they're using it*, and that 
doing so is *excluding* people from what they're trying to say.

 And anyone who doesn't (I have no idea what NSR means) are excluded.

This is, um, nonsense. Most of those who participate here already know the 
jargon, and if anyone sees a term they don't understand, they can always ask, 
or try Google. There's zero reason to expect all posts to be written so a 
lurker who knows nothing about TM can understand them instantly.
 

 One increasingly suspects that Barry's anti-jargon crusade is not about jargon 
but about giving himself opportunities to stalk and demonize people he doesn't 
like. (Same with his spiritual experiences crusade.)
 

 It's not so fine if you were ever trying to actually communicate to the 
occasional lurker who might appear here, wanting to learn a little something 
about TM, or even spiritual practice in general.

Buck, I agree with Turq. Card's posts are in their own little world. Most of 
them are incomprehensible to me, including the request this thread is about. 
Card actually reduced the jargon a bit by putting a portion of his request in a 
slightly less technical form parenthetically, but it still did not help. Who 
else here transliterates Sanskrit or has such a grasp of language? Usually I 
have no way to even begin to respond to one of his posts. Some additional 
explanation plain words would be a big help as to what he is getting at. 
 

 And Buck, your posts are pretty jargon laden as well, besides being almost 
completely spam. Tell us what you think in your own words. Farmers are not 
noted for being abstract philosophers, they speak plain and simple. Do you post 
all that stuff so you look good to the thought police over there at MUM? On 
occasion you have posted some really interesting things that seem to represent 
what you think and feel that come across as natural, but most of the time, you 
do not do this, you sound more like a Jehovah's Witness proffering pre-canned 
quotes from Watchtower Magazine, so instead of making a worthwhile 
contribution, you are largely ignored. It's OK to quote things, but then tell 
us what you think about that, free of jargon, what it means to you, and perhaps 
how you would explain it to someone who never ever heard of TM or meditation in 
general. You do not learn what you are saying until you can spontaneously say 
it in your own words, and understand it on your own terms. Then, you have to 
learn how to say it to someone who has not gone through that process. It is 
really easy to fail at this.
 

 I have a slight skin condition, so right now I think I will go an apply a 
layer of (CH2)7(CO2H)2 to the affected area so that the proximal and distal 
surfaces of the application are minimised. Can anyone here recommend an 
alternative to this?

I also find Doctordumb's assertion that they should just ask if they don't 
understand things to have a subtle and not entirely pleasant intent.

You can cherry pick until you are blue in the face, Barry. The fact remains 
that the person I was addressing was lurking on the BATGAP forum, and rather 
than ask a question, he was making assumptions, which he then posted, on here. 
This has nothing to do with language that is difficult to understand, and much 
more with your emotional instability and immaturity. But, please, don't let 
that stop you.:-)

Share, making a medical recommendation on the basis of what I said is rather 
risky don't you think? I did not mention the condition, just the chemical used 
to treat it, and it is used for a number of purposes. From a medical point of 
view, aloe vera has not been researched enough or well enough to come to any 
medically useful conclusions, though the cosmetic industry seems to have made 
it one of its poster child products.
