Almost nobody here knows me IRL. However, a lot of you have opinions about

how I think I should act. You've made those determinations based on the

those not interested in what they have to offer can go straight to hell and they would give the first kick on your way if you even try to question their "heart" what the hell again I HATE that word who really knows anothers inner most thoughts other than God hmm?
what a joke the I love you from John LYnn to strangers he clearly doesnt have time of day for unless it is on his turf and his conditions and his words.

and now where you going huh? no where eles has that "word".
they are indeed a bigger and better twi. with the ego and the conditional love and the dismissing of anyone who disagrees with anything they have claimed as their own truth.
they have lovers more devoted than twi ever did as well, ya know the drama so many faced with the falling of the first empire destroyed so many lifes and here these three scrap through the rumble and saved them these folks have no where eles to go and truly look at spirit and truth as their Saviour .
ever see a star track show when a borg gets disconnected? honestly it is ugly and frightening, no one to tell them what to do how to think , etc. well John feels he gave them back the life line to hope and to many he did just that .
thye are so much loyal to them than twi .
it is all he needs it is all they need , anything eles is just a waste of their breath.
i would like to respond to your post 11/11/04~~~ i'm the italic one
I am probably the last person on the face of this earth to speak for John Lynn that being said I will add in his defense.
obviously JAL did not ask you to "add in his defence".
CES spirit and truth fellowship is John Lynns lifes work, not to metion the scores of work he did in twi.
He is a teacher.
that sounds oddly familiar.
he has spent his entire life teaching and researching and looking at life by what the bible says.
i suppose that would be a matter of opinion. I have NOT spent my entire life teaching and researching..."and looking at what the bible says". But i have spent my life since 1'st grade searching and panning for gold. tht's 44 years worth, and i have panned quite a few nuggets.
he has worked very long and very hard at what he considered the only thing that will ever truly help him or anyone eles.
work is good. how well do you know JAL?

He considers himself a teacher and if no one want to study his class or materials he can not really play. it is his job.
it is like asking a guy who mows lawn for a living to set up shop in the desert if you ask me.

"testing the waters", someone else said.
Surely Jeff is not alone in these so called "drive by postings"!
just that I do not know what motivates jeff to post jal teachings on grease spot.
I guess Im saying I understand why he doesnt want to engage in a discussion from his shoes it may not be worth his time . his focus is on teaching those who want to hear what he offers .
also I think they are convinced they are right in everything they teach and do not want to discuss other ideas with people that may not be willingly to learn their ideas.

Indeed I did read "Autobiography" online only over these past few months -
that I enjoyed it immensely would an understatement.

If you're speaking of the SRF organization that evolved after the Yogi's death, - for which there is an ex-cult board which might just as well be a parallel universe to "Greasespot" -
I haven't the slightest interest in the SRF.
Would love to take some yoga classes sometime, though. And further study Hinduism and Buddhism. But I'm not going to join a [yet another] cult to do all those things.
