Women and Self-Realisation in the School
"The best women can hope for is to work off some sanskara so they come back as a male and have a real shot at enlightenment." I've seen this bandied about here a few times, and I was wondering what people's understanding of it was, and where it came from. Since it appears that HH Shantananda Saraswa...

Yeah, the idea is that you wait to be offered, but it's kind of hard when you're supposed to take the first course in silence, and quite a few people haven't been served by the time JJ starts the meal. I don't know...if I want something and nobody's offering after a decent interval, I'll ask them fo...

A letter marked "private and confidential" being discussed with people it was not adressed to is unacceptable. That's the bottom line, and I am at a loss as to why the Governors or folks in charge of correspondence for them thought it was acceptable. Did they think the people named in the letter des...

Yeah, the 4 or 5 foods thing just sounds silly. Fair enough, savour your flavours, but an edict prescribing 4 or 5 on one plate would have been fine, not 4 or 5 in a meal. It was in a meal, wasn't it? Anyway, there are no such prescriptions here on what you can or can't take in a meal. You can take ...

MM, why does your girl not eat vegetables (apart from potato)? I dunno - I was usually ordered to "eat my vegetables", and my son doesn't have much choice on the matter either, unless he wants to go to bed hungry. He doesn't go to a philosophy school, and hasn't really had any "vegetarian teaching",...

I haven't experienced the hushed tones thing when people leave. It's not spoken about in any great detail or anything, but people ask after each other, and pass on info about new life directions, babies, jobs, etc. The school here recently set up a meditation group on a Friday afternoon/evening for ...

MM-, I don't think you misread the post, but I think maybe you over-read the post. I agree that Anton appears to be saying he's a mental health professional, and was called upon to attend to one of the SOP members in particular, as well as others. What's not clear to me is whether this SOP member is...

I have read with dismay AntonR post this morning. I can only imagine the true horror of looking at someone that is effectively locked in their own body, unable to communicate with the outside world because of their participation in the SOP. It must be truly horrifying. If just one person is affecte...

That's pretty much what I thought to myself when you asked me the same question. I guess if you're asking me if I believe women should be on the lookout for scraps of paper while men natter about the state of the world, or if epileptics who have fits in philosophy groups are "blinded to the truth", ...
