Don, thank you for your response. I think I start to get what you and
Scott are talking about. Let me have a try:

I am not sure whether I can agree that there are good and evil people. I
can agree to two similar statements, which I think is what you mean: 1.)
There are people who think that others are evil and 2.) many people do try
to "scoop up a river in a bucket". (I call these people "A" below) Right?
In trying to understand the discussion between you and Scott, I got a
simple image in my mind:
people with awaken shared intuition (B)
!
!
good-------- people before metanoia has taken place (A)---------evil
What I derive from this is following:
a) A-people do not have a knowledge about good and evil but only the
illusion of a knowledge, but they will not know that their knowledge is
just illusion before they "die" to B-position
b) There is a danger, that some A-people claim to be a B-person and
identify being B with "good" and being A with "evil" (which shows that
they are in fact A, otherwise they wouldn't think like this).
c) There are A-people in reality, and their illusion is powerfully shaping
our real world. This doesn't make the river evil, just a bit whorly.
d) But in some sense, B is "better" than A. What is a "better" beyond good
and evil? My feeling is, that there is a longing for B in every A person
together with great fear to die. And within B people, who learnt that fear
has no substance and that love is the truth, there is a great desire to
help others to follow their own individual longing.
Does this make sense?
LO as organisations to help people become B. Yes, this is theoretical and
abstract. This is visionary and beautiful.
And here we are on this list, a group of A-people (may be a few B's among
us) standing on the edge, trying to encourage ourselves to jump and
exchanging knowledge how to encourage best. That's what it is about, isn't
it? If just one knew, how to jump...
May all of you experience neverending love!
