The final months of 2013

[Aloysius]

There are awful lot of assumptions flying around this thread at this point. It may even go so far as to be negative judgments of an other self's path/progress, bordering on wet-blanketry. That is particularly interesting since it appears that everyone that has contributed so far are seasoned seekers; so it is certainly not anyone's first rodeo. Therefore, it is highly unlikely that any of the positive conclusions anyone has reached are superficial/not well thought out.

I'm sorry if my post seemed like that. My post wasn't directed as much at the posters as that would have been somewhat unnecessary given that zen was pointing out humor which got misinterpreted, mine was following a certain point within that convo though not as jokingly.

My post was to the thousands of guests we get on this site who may have happened to see a post saying that magical thinking and exaggeration were fantastic ways of increasing positive catalyst (which they can be but generally aren't helpful for personal growth) and gone off trying to increase that behavior thinking it will be beneficial, also the whole "world is changing" thing. My own distortions were projected as I this is the one thing that really hurts me to see. However I purposefully try and time my posts somewhat quickly so I can still hopefully contribute yet unconsciously project a bit so I can become more aware of my distortions (not entirely conducive to group discussion and it's a habit I'm trying to wean myself off lol), needless to say I learned something about myself here lol.

I don't doubt the capability of the guests on this site but this is just something I would like to see happen less as it can really mess people up.
