In reply to Sounds like contrition here to me. He-he. posted by John on 03/23/2007 18:03:51

Coach:

>However odd it may seem to you, Eddie, you do seem to have covered a
lot of good ground in the direction of allowing contrition to have an
accepted place in your life. It's not for me to say, but that's how it
comes across to me.

Thank you Coach, I really do ‘try’ to live my whole life by this
principle.

>This is really a beautiful sharing…

Again this is a wonderful compliment, especially to me very personally
and tenderly that immerses me in caring love.

>I don't feel the strength to respond more deeply to several of your
very-well-argued points.

I can easily acc.ept this stance you are taking ‘here right now’, as a
very non-argumentative and graceful way of moving on in another
direction here in class. Coupled with the fact that I do fairly
understand our ‘differences’ in regards to the place argument and
reasoning holds/or not in the study and practice of the awareness
game. We have had a number of discussions regarding these here in past
classroom talks. And we do each hold some starkly different/apposing
ideas about those.

>And by the way, what of it, after all, if a person experiences what I
mean by "contrition" in their own experiential senses of it? It's no
big deal! If they don't like it, they aren't gonna be stuck with it.
It is too easily forgotten among humans as it is.

“AND BY THE WAY…” Ouch! Not because [[[It is too easily forgotten]]]
by me, this is not my experience; but simply because you would even
pitch me this underhanded curve ball in the context of this
discussion. But yes Coach I have already forgiven you in advance and
will very easily forget it. I simply don’t have the ability or the
luxury to carry around a bag of these type rocks.

Now I’m off to finish reading your latest post “Can conditioned human
behavior be changed on purpose?”; where I had opened it first and read
your note that you had posted it before you had read my post and given
this response here.

Eddie
