<p>I am relax with you bashing KW,</p>
<p>who really cares?</p>
<p> </p>
<p>I already told you that it is an easy match to challenge him in your or mine own field if I want to understand Habermas I read Habermas´s original works (and I did it of course) and not KW, if I want to understand Derrida, I read Derrida in french instead of some anglo-saxon soupe de merde à la Kenny or someone else. </p>

<p>The last writings of Halfbass on new orientalism were disappointing, the same can be said of Bernard Faure on Buddhism. Nothing new has happened in that field either since 20 years ago. ! I leave that to the specialists.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>But that´ wasn´t my contention.</p>
<p>Lane and Wisser are not evolutionists as far as I know, but they like to present themselves as authorities, neither are they posmetaphysicians. Wisser is lost at that game, that poor theosophist. </p>
<p> </p>
<p>Grof or Walsh are both MDs and biologists, they never wrote a single bashing line on KW´s evolution writing. Amazing, they could have written hundred of lines on that.</p>
<p>Kenny is a common dude. What he writes today is repetition.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>Dawking and Dennet laughing at organized religion is not a big deal. You don´t need to get a PH.D in astrophysics to get the silliness of that. they call themselves "bright" but to me they are not, they are more like a pathetic bunch of old white pahollocrats lamenting the end of their scientistic domination. ahhahah</p>
<p>What´s cool about Dawking and Dennett and their explanation of the origin of consciousness?</p>
<p>well THX mañana, they are unable to say a single word when it is about deep mystery.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>I can recall that moffo Adi Da saying: "the atheists are a bunch of adolescents, they have no deep experience".</p>
<p>ahhahahah</p>
<p> </p>
<p>Kela: well KW is harldy a model of plastic beauty like Alain Delon for example and I don´t give a fuck about his colorado style. I don´t defend him on that, ahahhah</p>

<p>1. david lane. if i may do the thing we are not supposed to do, which is to speculate upon motive, i suspect that like me, david lane is a <em>traditionalist</em>, taught in the traditional manner among traditional teachers; and as such he is taught to <em>resist</em> new age interpretations of the teaching. this is actually quite evident from his writings. lane follows sant mat, and the sant mat is notoriously open to unorthodox interpretations. adi da presented sant mat as a not yet complete path, and kenny followed adi da's account in his own writings. now adi da was basically normative in his writings, but kenny presented his account as that of a "pundit," a scholar, which should be descriptive and not contain polemical matter. so... i suspect that lane took offence at kenny's presentation of sant mat... and he used his scholarly arsenal in an attempt to take kenny down. that is my diagnosis of "the case of david lane." hahahaha.</p>
