What would you lead, and how would you lead it? I am not interested in joining anything, mind you. Just curious about the whole thing. If you want to lead, what is your goal? What would be the benefit to humanity?

I noticed that you put a link to Krishnamurti's speech when he broke with the theosophists. If truth is really pathless, how can you lead anyone to anything? And if you do lead others, how can they ever know what is in you is the truth?

I think you would agree that the answers are within. That being the case, how could you give them to another?

If you are talking about petty and small political actions, then that is one thing. Sure, some things can be accomplished, but can that free human beings? We've had similar political systems in place now for thousands of years. How has humanity changed because of that? Has it? I cannot see it.

Anyway, I love your energy and you have a skill as a writer. Keep going and don't waste that. I wasted my skill for years before it finally bit me in the ass, so stay with it. Keep going. And KEEP POSTING.
