Why do we have to identify and quote “Gurdjieff’s statement of what underlies the myth” before you will comment on it? Are you at all familiar with how intelligent people discuss a topic? One person presents a viewpoint, preferably with some evidence from a reputable source to back up that argument, and then other people present their views on the topic, or ask for further information, or refute the original viewpoint with evidence of their own.
All you ever do is make statements without any supporting evidence, and when asked for explanations or further details you give us information on a book which supposedly supports your statement, and then expect us to locate a copy of the book and try to figure out what “the truth” is before you will say anything further.
I find it helps (inasmuch as anything can) to simply point out that he’s not intelligent enough to post anything but stupidities. His response invariably supports the claim.
'cause one of the finer nuances of his myth is that if he says the magic words, rather than someone else, he will go poof!
So we know we’re close with: [ul]“The soul, like the physical body, is also matter—only, it consists of “fecal” matter.”[/ul][ul]“The soul, like the physical body, is also matter—only, it consists of "dingy” matter.”[/ul][ul]“The soul, like the physical body, is also matter—only, it consists of "yechy” matter.”[/ul][ul]“The soul, like the physical body, is also matter—only, it consists of "zesty” matter.”[/ul][ul]“The soul, like the physical body, is also matter—only, it consists of “taboo” matter.”[/ul][ul]“The soul, like the physical body, is also matter—only, it consists of “lumpy” matter.”[/ul][ul]“The soul, like the physical body, is also matter—only, it consists of “bacon” matter.”[/ul]but we just don’t quite have it – one of the finer points is missing.
What could be finer than to learn the magic words – finer, finer finer than what?
Finer than: “Brad: “I’ve got something to say.” Audience: “Say it Asshole!””
Finer than “Frank-N-Furter: “I see you shiver with antici . . .” Audience: Say it!””
Hey, I’ve got it! “Nothing could be fi-ner, than to be in maatorc’s pineal, in the mooor-or-or-ning!”
Except, of course, there is something finer in the morning, something far finer: bacon. And it’s time to go fry some up.
No, I don’t have superpowers and I don’t think he’ll start behaving now. If he had bothered answering that list of question from Don’t fight the hypothetical I’d have had a faint hope he was not having a go at us. But, well, as it’s now abundantly clear, he’s trolling. Let’s stop feeding him now, shall we?
My guess is that if Maatorc does not go POOF! from saying the finer magic words, he will go POOF! just from masturbating in his own mind about them too much.
maatorc, you’ve ignored repeated moderator instructions on demonstrating a good faith interest to have discussion and not merely keep repeating your lunacy. At this point, I have to conclude you’re either a troll or an uninteresting type of crazy person. Go find another message board to annoy.
