The Beijing Baidu Netcom Science and Technology Co and the Dept of Defence in The USA keep visiting us, constantly. Googlebots I guess. Well, we are the Brotherhood of Mankind, we will just think of them as older and larger kin

Why block them? With the recent revelations of prism and the uks equivalent T(-something)where we allegedly cut into global data cables to siphon of data flows (source Economist, or Spectator or Time mags or BBC news)and probably the bots of pretty much every security service in the world that has an interest in people, opinions, trends, etc you ain't going to stop it. Give them open free access they might learn some useful stuff from the people on here

they eat bandwidth and could seriously slow down the forum.

Give them open free access they might learn some useful stuff from the people on here 8-) I asked some time ago, what if anything of value had anyone specifically learnt here?. Several feel good responses but nothing specific of value actually having been learnt.

Who is to judge the value?

>what if anything of value had anyone specifically learnt here? Who is to judge the value? Respondents. While several gave vague feel good answers, such as enjoying the discussions, none specified a single fact they had learnt here.

Several feel good responses but nothing specific of value actually having been learnt. 1. Confirmation of esoteric knowledge. That has a distinct value to me. 2. Answers to questions that I have raised that have helped me take positive steps forwards in my own esoteric development. The knowledge on here is valuable. 3. The forum brings people together from across our globe - that has value. Just because you get no value out of it is quite frankly your loss abecedary.

So who is to judge facts? It used to be a fact that the speed of light was constant. Now a light transmission can be slowed to a stop and then restarted.
I am not even sure the facts are the essence of learning. I rather think that relationship is the point of knowing.
In which case your question might be: has any brother advanced in relationship with any entity of note (including him/herself) through this site?

>none specified a single fact they had learnt here So who is to judge facts? I am simply asking them to name some specify thing they have learnt, not to judge them (that is the next step). So far we have not got past the first step.

You sound like a pessimistic school teacher Thankfully there are those who teach by example and encouragement. I count every single one of our contributors as my teacher. I have learned much from all of them, including yourself.

People come together for all sorts of reasons. It is not always a good thing. Why abecedary? So you can act all high and mighty and be judge and jury? Read the forum again the answers you seek are already there if you have the eyes to see them. I have no desire to convert you. I share knowledge, knowledge is shared with me. It works. You are left out of the loop, but that is not my doing abecedary. The best advice I can offer you (assuming you are not simply trying to make a mockery of this forum, and you do have a genuine desire to learn more about esoterics), is to spend several thousand hours learning to work from your heart more. If you chose to do that, and can do it, [its a mighty painful journey I warn you] you might one day realise what you have been missing. Gospel of Thomas "2. Jesus said, "Those who seek should not stop seeking until they find. When they find, they will be disturbed. When they are disturbed, they will marvel, and will reign over all. [And after they have reigned they will rest.]" From gnosis.org/naghamm/gosthom.htmlNow I don't expect you to believe nor understand this abecedary, but when you can actually "feel" these words. And I mean "feel" then you might "get it". In the meantime I hope you travel well.

That is an example of a fact that I have learned here. I have been quite surprised.

The anchor is to rationally scrutinise that learning and see if it is sound.

Those that learn from the heart (chakra) often find that the mind has a lot of work to do to catch up.
I have however observed that many people cannot distinguish their emotional processes from heart processes, their heart processes being largely inactive. For those it is important to test the emotions with the mind.
In the junior initiate however the emotions are commonly more reliable than the mind since more work has been put into repairing internal and external relationships than into perception of the greater Reality.

I heard a very credible interview on the radio just this week that Japan realised its situation was dire and was looking for a way to save some face and admit defeat. This was known by those in the US government at the time but they decided to drop two bombs anyway.
The targets were civilians.
