Hi All,
It used to be that posting getting quiet in the forum was a concern. But after 20+ years, maybe just about every possible support scenario has been covered multiple times. So while the forum still sees a lot of traffic, pulling up various support scenarios documented over many years, that may result in less new posting being necessary. Not that we do not welcome new inquiries and discussions. We certainly do. There are a lot of AYP practitioners out there, and it is great to hear from you all anytime. So bring it on!
One of the strange things about the forum is that in some other communities, AYP is sometimes labeled as being āunsafeā because of the difficulties some people have that are reported and discussed in the forum. It is a āsupport forumā after all, and that is why we have it. What others looking from the outside may not realize is that there are thousands who have been using the AYP teachings over the years who donāt need support and we rarely or never hear from them in the support forum. It is a teaching for āself-directedā practitioners after all. Many have taken that to heart, and it is wonderful.
So is it fair to say AYP is āunsafeā when the small minority of practitioners having difficulty is reporting here, as they should, while the thousands not having any serious difficulty, and growing in abiding inner silence and ecstatic bliss are not sharing their experiences very much here?
Bottom line: While the forum has been around for many years, covering a wide range of support scenarios, it is only the tip of the large iceberg encompassing the application of AYP by thousands of self-directed practitioners around the world.
Perhaps it would help new visitors to the forum understand AYP better if more of the positive experiences many are having could be shared as well. Silence speaking up can provide a more balanced view on the bigger picture of the whole of AYP.
Just a suggestionā¦ Thanks!
The guru is in you.
