For whatever it may be worth.... I think the thought in the first post about karmic backlash is a moral thought, and your desire for justice is part of what precipitated the backlash. So from the...

If it happens once, in some minor way, then you can blow it off as a coincidence. If it happens to you a lot, in a major, often objectively verifiable way, then it becomes ridiculous to pretend its...

Yeah, Adi Da was a poster boy for New Age ego run amok. I find it hard to believe that intelligent people could read that stuff and take it seriously. Of course all people are flawed, but not all...

I've had hundreds of precognitive dreams. Yeah I'm aware of lots of possible fallacies....extrapolation from past experience, creating self-fulfilling prophecies, selective attention, arbitrarily...

My 2 cents.... If shared dreaming or dream telepathy are possible, the mechanism is outside of current scientific theory. There's a psychologist at Berkeley who thinks it works...

In my opinion, the 2012 thing was entirely a way for New Age con artists to make money. They did the same thing with Y2K, which wasn't the first time either. And they'll wait a couple of years then...

OK. I don't know anything about representationalist theories of perception, so you shouldn't read anything into my use of the word representation beyond what I said. I do know some demonstrable...

How is Gangaji a fraud, as opposed to someone who's understanding is incomplete? I think they're all frauds, in the sense that they claim to know the whole truth when they don't. But I don't see...

OK. I agree that the fear issue is important. What I said about control might make more sense if I explained better how I do shared dreaming, insofar as I do it. I'm kind of doing it by side...
