I'm not inclined to comment line by line on that one, to be honest, as it's kind of a mess and there are various misconceptions there which apparently are because Malcolm is not realized. Generally with authentic realization, indeed one can receive transmission from rocks or trees or whatever as essentially all form is realized to be indivisible from the body of Vairochana, to put it a certain way.Virgo wrote: ↑Wed Nov 30, 2022 12:10 amYes, I would like you to to try to refute this earlier post point by point:

You didn't refute it earlier. You claimed to have "engaged" Malcolm [for the last time], but in fact, you don't have appeared to have actually "engaged" him at all.
You seem to quote many things out of context and make many assumptions, but you do not always refute the counterpoints that are brought to you.
You have an interesting point of view, you just haven't supported it in any way that I can see.
Thank you,

And the truth is I'm not necessarily interested in convincing anyone of anything. I am speaking here, basically, because ... well, the reason could be discussed on many levels, but basically because it emerges as the thing to do. I couldn't really care less, in some sense, if anyone believes me or not, but I do think that there is a reason to say what I've said here.
Best wishes. Unless there is more that should be said, I probably won't respond again here, to anyone. If there is some benefit to speaking more, perhaps. FWIW. Which may be nothing at all
