MessageFrom my point of view, Plato is a welcome addition here. I think he should be reminded not to try not to make personal attacks and keep the site to an R rating.
The tao is good, bad and the ugly. Sometimes its hard to tell one from the other, and by the time you think you've figured it out the damn thing has changed places.
You know, from Plato's point of view Michael Winn took him on a trip and led him to a dangerous place where he was raped. I flippantly made a joke about it, but the truth is if anything like that happened to any of us, we'd be .. pretty angry.
I hope Plato realizes this is NOT being brought up because he has criticized Winn or has ideas opposed to HT. He's being brought to task for being obnoxious to others. Certainly a charge that could be leveled against me sometimes. (see my Buddha is fat bald long eared moron post)
To his credit, I think Chia has stated from day one that he was anti guru an innovator and wanted students to think and choose and evaluate for themselves. I know that Michael Winn has carried on this tradition.
Winn is neither Guru or God. I think he is a fabulous teacher and resource we are extremely lucky to have. He's also a tough nut, he can defend himself or not.
Peace
Michael
I like the community we've set up here. I wish we had more people, especially well practiced people here talking. I wish Raven were back, I wish RJ was back, I wish I had a pretty pony to ride on :)
