Forgive me. I thought that you had turned back for I had not heard from you. then there was a very trying time and I was compelled to tell some of what I saw when the 7th Gate opened. I will tell what happenend after we passedover the Lake of Fire on the way to the 4th gate.

The nature of threads like this is that they can, and have taken on a nature of their own and may veer away from the original poster's content.The problem is, anything that is said is interpreted by the original poster as having some relation to what they originally posted.
I'm with you, I'm making my attempts to back out of this neverending quagmire as quickly as possible... Generaly, my posts in this thread are directed at the group as a whole, not the original poster.

Does your mention of "out, ---" have any association with Shakespear? (out out brief candle)

Lou,
I think the wise thing to do at this point is to just tell your story. I have no desire to join you on your journey. I have my own path, with which I am well pleased. But I would hate to see the truth and beauty on your path be overlooked because of a poor presentation. There is truth and beauty on many paths, and certainly forgiveness and caritas, the first two gates, are universal concepts with which few would disagree. If you present the entire path, even if people don't choose to follow it right now, they will have a chance to ponder it and perhaps in time it will move them. But if you keep them dangling, their irritation might drown your message. And people coming to read the archives years from now will have trouble following a story broken up into such a long thread.

Thank you for your post. I have all intentions of sharing all that I experianced on the Road. I do, however, think that it is requirered of me to answer evry post. Once the posts stop for a while, then I will continue to share with you what I experianced.

So kid_A, you're the author behind those wonderfully cheesey B-grade sci-fi movies? I'm first in line for your next novel. I love your posts! :-)
Seriously, you should see about writing. You can be very entertaining. Now you're going to have me searching all your old posts to see what you've said previously.

Before we go to the 4th Gate, I want to tell some more of what I saw when the 7th Gate opened. I was taken to a high mountain and I saw the City of Peace. The city had 12 gates and each gate was a gigantic pearl. Those pearls were producd by sufferings. I saw a crystal clear river in the city. It was there for the people that thirsted for life. For those who drink of those waters will have life forever. That river contained the tears of all those that had suffered and it contained the tears of the angles in heaven that rejoyced when one person came through the 7th Gate and had overcome and was given the Crown of Life. And I saw the people rejoycing to see us comming through that Gate of Triumph. For all of heaven was in a celebration to see just us few. There were no tears of suffering or sorrow in any of the people in that City of Peace for all were celebrating. There was no death in that City of Peace, for all were given eternal life. "Go and tell this to others", the people said. Is there anyone that wants to hear?

You can drink of the Waters of Life freely. He that drinks of those waters will never thirst.These waters will clense the suffering of those that drink. These waters will purify your mind and remove all of your sorrow. If you thirst for those things, then partake of the waters of life. Will you join us?

Thank you. This post is the first that even hints at discussion. Questions are just as powerful as answers.

Thanks for this. I think what was concerning me was the earlier ones I *was* reading, where people were going to a lot of effort to attaempt a discussion with Lou, who was on a different tack- concerned to state his philosophy rather than discuss it. People vary, of course, but I guard my own energy carefully as I dont have lots, and was concerned if other people were putting lots of effort into replies expecting discussion.
If that makes any sense.
I think the way threads meander can be v interesting, and quite fun sometimes!

When I first joined the Board I thought I should reply to every post, too. You dont need to, and with a complex story about your own journey and philosophy it would be better to follow Dinah's wise advice, rather than get sidetracked.
Why not put the rest of it in a message, as she suggested?
Before you answer any more messages.
By the way, I'm not answering your other post to me as I dont want to add to the side-tracking, and I dont think it would be useful for either of us.

> LouLou Buddy,
I would go into, since the C of P was off the hook . . . but, I'll just let whoever wants to know more about it email me directly. that way I don't have to annoy everyone else with my interpretation. (Nothing turns people off more than trying to shove things down their throat) Since the ultimate point is to have everyone in the City of Peace zip code, probably makes sense to do things the way THEY want it instead of the other way around. (per Dinah and Fi's instructions).
Good luck to you!
