Hi All,
I'm going to take a hiatus from the AYP Support Forums. I think it will free up some energy for other valuable activities. My hiatus will begin Tuesday@6. And when it will end, I don't know.
Have any of you taken deliberate time away? Was it beneficial for you? |

I do not understand why you feel you need to get away from your computer. I'm firmly convinced that "God" is subjective to everyone and objective to no-one. The laws of the cosmos are God, but the laws of human beings are different. If you want to use the computer, why should anything else tell you differently? WHy should that be a bad idea?
Habits are not bad lest thinking make them so.
A habitless person is a dead man. There is no such thing as a man alive without habits. That is just as impossible as a Yogi making the sun disappear so that it won't come up tomorrow as a nerd thinking he controls the sunshine. Come now, show a little rationality.
I don't want this post to be censored, but at the same time i don't want others to display their egos by countering something about "thoughts do not a man make" or some such thing. That is a waste of time, and i do not want to debate it. But i feel i need to say bduislzhfuidhlzsfuidzls now.

| If you are moved to speak, do so. If not, refrain and enjoy your silence. |

By "ingrain it in you," Eddie, I assume you are talking about deepening ones habit of core practices, while enjoying growing freedom in practices that are not core. That's the ideal that draws me toward this hiatus. |

| yeah i guess you can say that. for me it was with these two books by my favorite teacher aziz kristof. i would read them constantly through and through. then i just gave them away so i can start to let it expand into other aspects of my life. it's been working well so far |
