let's have more detail exposure of the actual "teachings" -- once exposed "secrets" lose their value Ross, welcome to the discussion. How did you come to take the course down under? Were you lookingfor an academic, philosophical-method type class? Or did you know about the shady side of SES history...

As a new student in the American branch of the SES, I am continually amazed by the level of arrogance displayed by the School regarding this proposed ?independent internal inquiry.? These Terms of Reference were obviously written ?in-house,? by an SES person. STRIKE ONE for independence. The Terms w...

Hello all, Something I forgot to say, that came up when I approached this tutor abut the abuse allegations raised on this site (I don't like calling them tutors, since they are actually teachers or moderators -- a tutor is someone who works with you one-on-one) anyway, he said something interesting ...

Hi Bella, teenage girls and men in their 30s don't sound like such a great match to me. Even if the marriage does work, these women likely look forward to an exceptionally long widowhood. But "grooming" sounds even more odious when the girls involved are unwilling participants. Here is a post from "...

Hi ADG, I got the full quote you're refering to from the John Colet school website (http://johncolet.nsw.edu.au/Articles/seniorgirlsphilosophy.html). By the way, what town/province do you live in? Obedience means following laws, both man-made and universal. For example the rules of the road, and the...

meditation and the Shankara lineage
Hello Tom Grubb et all, David Boddy may ?deny any connection? with the Maharashi, but the SoPP (and I would imagine the SES) still recognizes TM initiation. I was chatting w/ a tie-wearing student at the break the other day, who said he was initiated in TM in the 1970s and that the SoPP told him as ...

Reprint - 3 former St. James teachers apologize, Oc/Nov 04
Hello all, Below I?ve quoted posts originally made on the ?EXPERIENCES AT ST VEDAST (now St. James) AND THE SES? thread.
