You keep repeating this silly ultimatum. What does it get you?

And why don't you just put me on your ignore list?
You are up to NO GOOD! Any fool can see that.
And you aren't just any fool. You are a very special kind of fool.
You enjoyed attempting to throw me into rage when I was sick.
Your ear infection was all my fault. I admit it - you caught me. I made a voodoo doll of you and stuck a pin in its ear.
You are a liar and a trickster who has been caught and exposed.
I haven't lied to you or anyone else. If you think I am trying to trick you, you are some kind of paranoid buffoon. But yes, you did catch me at my voodoo.

Simpleton.
No one escapes the Universal Law of Attraction. Everything eventually comes back around. This guy is up to no good and, of course, no good will continue to manifest in his miserable life according to the Universal Law of Attraction. Thankfully I am no longer stupid enough to be baited by him into throwing away my precious energy I need for a full healing. That's what he is doing here. He is deliberately trying to bait me into wasting my precious energies. Sorry 'friend', I'm no longer taking the bait.

For the record: I was at my peak of frustration regarding my swimmer's ear problem when I began the discourse about The Secret with block-head.

I'm about to take a new and more wonderful direction

But Renny - isn't pointing out where people are "wrong" exactly what you do all the time? If you look back on your posts, you will see that initially I disagreed with you. You immediately began calling me names and trying to insult me simply because I did not (((agree))) with you.

It should be obvious by now that I cannot take you seriously for this very reason. You espouse one set of values then within seconds display their exact opposite.

You are a hypocrite and an intellectual lightweight. Hey, anyone who takes Icke seriously deserves a brand -new, tight-fitting white suit and a room with soft walls to match.

I've skimmed over the post and you will note how this guy has no intention whatsoever to bring this conversation towards something more noble and productive. Associating with such people is a waste of oneself.

There is no challenge in putting this guy on offical 'ignore'. To refuse to be baited takes a lot more inner-strength and solid, dependable inner-strength is the foundation of what successful manifesting is all about.

THIS POST is what this thread is supposed to be all about. So I would appreciate it if you people do not try to change the subject.

AGAIN I STATE: That the MAIN REASON I brought up the conspiracy is because I feel it is more than coincidence that it is now more difficult than ever to establish and maintain true friendships. People are being brainwashed into betraying each other at the drop of a proverbial hat.

I created this thread ESPECIALLY to see how you would eventually react to this post and so I have moved it. So far MOST OF YOU seem intent on ignoring it. How about all of you who responded on this thread make a comment.

Thanks


Renaissance wrote:I’ve seen enough of your responses to say that MY criteria for true friendship is just as valid as anyone else’s. I like to keep it simple and basic


A true friend gives you the freedom to be yourself

A true friend keeps your secrets, even when you may have disagreements

A true friend rejoices in your prosperity even if he himself is not doing as well financially

A true friend encourages you to realize your most wonderful and noble dreams in life

A true friend says nice things about you behind your back

A true friend defends you when others say bad things about you

A true friend does his best to give you the best advice possible expecting nothing in return

A true friend will help you if you need it and he is able to do so

A true friend will not allow you to take advantage of his kindness


These are the basic criteria I see as essential to a true friend. There may be others, but in my view these are essential. The only guarantee I have in this matter is to be a true friend to others. I cannot trust that others will meet this criteria when dealing with me, but I can trust that I will do my best to be a true friend to others for in this day and age a true friend is indeed a priceless treasure.

So as I go along in life I do my best to be a true friend to everyone who may cross my path. Oh, I often fail, but my victories in this area are indeed worth celebrating. The more I focus on my victories the more my failures seem to just fade away all by themselves.

Now, if I am a true friend to someone and they play me for a sucker and a fool I go on the friggin warpath. I am not a nice guy to those who try to take advantage of my kindness and play me for a fool! I feel the wicked should be crushed with extreme prejudice!

The only way I could do anything that you would consider noble and productive is by agreeing with your nonsense. But because it is nonsense, I have no intention of doing that.

If you cannot admit that your posts contain more "bad vibes" than mine, you are hopelessly on the road to failure. At least by the standards in The Secret.

This is what I mean when I say you are a hypocrite.

If life were as simple as The Secret makes it out to be, then you are truly lost.

And what's with the "25 words or less" B.S.? You couldn't state your own name in 25 words or less. Why should I limit myself to 25 words when you can't limit yourself to 25 pages?

I've decided to take a new and better direction. For a while I'm going to stop basely insulting people in this forum. Block-head, butthead or whatever. I'm just going to stop doing that for a while as an experiment.

I'm suddenly headed in a much better direction. See what inspired it:

Sid, duplicating posts is tantamount to spam. It's also 100% unnecessary and more than a tad juvenile. I'll start deleting them if you continue.

Want to make certain he wins the argument, eh? No problem. It's obvious he has already lost. I no longer intend to insult him or you for any reason. At least for a few days. Let's see if it really makes a difference in my relationship with the Spirit of Nature.

You focus upon what is wrong and it truly is YOUR problem until I begin to insult you for it. Then it becomes MY problem, but not anymore.

I'm learning and have risen above what I was earlier today. Can YOU say the same?

None of my business, actually

Ha!

Isn't it amazing how quicky you are now getting what you asked for. In less that 24 hours of your writing this I received a powerful revelation and am now curbing all my low-level insults. You got a rather quick response from the universe, if you really think about it.

You are getting what you asked for

Lately I have been watching the first of a series of DVDs about Krishna that are an Indian once televised classic. I was up in the mountains close to the area I photographed above.

I thought about Krishna and suddenly…Krishna appeared standing in the sky a little above me. I was shocked! My instinctive response to the translucent image of Krishna standing in the air was, “Is this real or is this just all happening in my mind?”

Krishna sat down on a rock next to me and responded, “Everything you are perceiving is in actuality all happening in your mind. So the answer to the question of whether what you are perceiving is real or all in your mind is: yes. It is real and yet…it is all in your mind. What you should focus upon is the quality of the message you are receiving from me. If you find it useful I suggest..."

Further Conversations With Krishna

Post by Renaissance »

After my falling out with the Hare Krishna’s I came to the conclusion that if we are all truly created in God’s image then we should all also want to be worshipped. Fact of the matter is that ANY HUMAN who wants to be worshipped is indeed considered insane. The desire to be loved is normal, but the desire to be worshipped is INSANE. This being the case I refuse to worship ANYONE or ANYTHING. I feel the only way God would need our worship is if He is ‘miraculously’ insecure and…insane. I find it untenable to believe that the creator of the entire universe could possibly be so insecure in Himself that he desperately needs his creation to worship Him.

When dealing with matters such as this pertaining to The Spirit I’ve found that I have to balance fully believing with fully not-believing any of it. I resolve to always test and refine such revelations as I was supposedly receiving from this apparition of Krishna that had apparently appeared to me.

I asked Krishna…
