ULTIMATELY WE ALL HAVE TO BE IN CONTROL OF OUR OWN STATE OF MIND
But we're not. As much as you might like to think we are, we're not. If we were, thought reform could not exist. Statements like this make me wonder whether you actually believe it does.

[Buddah] PUT IT ALL BACK ON PERSONAL RESPONSABILITY
I could give a damn what some centuries old dead likely cult leader has to say, or how you interpret it. Personal responsibility does not mean "total responsibility" as you seem to think it does. It is no way reasonable to say that people need to be subject matter experts in everything, and if they aren't, and they get taken advantage of, it's their fault. If a con artist comes along, plays some new trick i've never seen or heard of, and cons me out of my money, in your mind, I would be responsible. I should have done me "research". All those taken advantage by Madoff were responsible. He shouldn't even be prosecuted I almost imagine you'd argue. Because they should have known better. They let him take advantage. You're implying victims don't exist at all which smacks of either human potential never washed off, or somebody who takes advantage of others and wants to justify it to himself. But the moderator is right. I suggest we drop it or take it to another thread in a more appropriate forum.
Diddly,
You say she is on medication for PTSD, for which she must see a psychiatrist. Yet she forbids others from doing the same. How does she explain these contradictions to her followers? Does she even attempt to, or does she just smack people down if they ask questions? I apologize if you already answered the question earlier but I haven't finished reading all 28 pages yet.
