Ah, Milk and Honey, I did wonder where you were.
Now we're just missing Josefine huh?
The battle has begun. This time though I don't feel like being a bystander since I opened this thread and I'll try to make sure we don't fall into semantics or personal sh*te like I've sadly seen it on other thread and forums.
Let me just pick up some minor bits and pieces that do the trick for me.

And I see it as a question of how to tell the One from the Divine impostors. If God is not God, but a usurper, and we return to Him, to what have we returned?

Milk and Honey, I'd love to believe that I can actually separate the wheat from the chaff but from my vantage point doing so would be utterly foolish.

It's the whole idea of this "mandated" completion which is the lie we've been falling for.

Yes indeed, it feels to me as if the 'mission on earth' is a nice 'all is fine' sedative for all the ones that threaten the system to break down because there's too much banging on the prison walls.

When I said that siphoning goes all the way to the top, I meant that, but by implication, throughout the rest of what I've written, that the top is not the top.

I think we're all agreeing on this one, it's just semantics.... dude the terms for all this are all over the place. To one the 'spirit' is the 'source' and to the other 'spirit' is just hocus pocus, is emotion a part of the illusion or is it divine?
Man man....

My concern for Baxter is that her words feel less 'expansive' and more constricting. And constriction = anger = fear at its base.
I will come back to your insights later today.

I agree with this, as well. I think Baxter is onto something but she has a growl in her writing.
Forgive me for bringing so little of tangible argument to the table but as things work for me, they usually run through the system for a while and I get a sensation of 'go' or 'don't go'. I certainly won't spend this life with reading all there is to read... so this is the best I can come up with.
I may not be as persistent as sun-toon' when it comes to the rejection of all old means, but I must admit that after long periods of introspection, every time I return to this attitude.
There's just too much BS out there.
