Dear Jim

As I understand it the Gita opens with Arjuna and Krishna standing
before the assembled armies of the evil Uncles who have usurped and
taken the Kingdom.
Krishna gave Arjuna the choice-"Me or my army" and Arjuna chose
Krishna...so now Krishna's army is also assembled with the already
overwhelming enemy forces.

Arjuna serveys the field and says to Krishna- "The only way to win
this game is not to play" (;-) and "Bad as they are these are my
Uncles I will not engage against Family"

Krishna says- "Get a grip and pull your fucking finger out
Sunshine!...
They have raped your sisters, murdered your mother and taken and
turned the whole fucking Kingdom to evil....the battle is righteous
and
essential....stop being a fucking wannabie pseudo spiritual wimp and
get
stuck into em"!

And so goes the Gita as Krishna convinces the arswhipe to get up and
fight the good fight.

The Mahaberatta covers the battle itself....and here I may
occasionally
depart from my Scriptural quotations to paraphrase....just a little.

Prior to the battle Krishna and Arjuna sit down with the Uncles to
determine the rules of conflict- No striking an unarmed opponent...No
striking a man who is down...No fighting after nightfall....and so
on.....and so the battle begins.

At each and every turn throughout the battle Arjuna finds himself up
against the pre agreed rules....an evil Uncle is unarmed so Arjuna
cannot strike..."Kill the prick" says Krishna...."What"!!!??? says
Arjuna
"You're a Manifestation of God! We have sat down and established fair
rules of fair combat"!......"Stop fucking about and finish the prick
off" says Krishna.

And so it goes....Arjuna hesitates when an Uncle is down....Arjuna
ceases
to fight when night falls....and each time Krishna has to drive it
home-
"Look fucknuckle! Your dealing with fucking murdering
psychopaths!....There are no fucking rules!...Get on with it and
finish the bastards off"!
.........................................................

" But which of us is Arjuna?"

You are.

They have taken your Kingdom.
They have taken your Faith and turned it into a nasty little Cult in
which any false allegation goes unchallenged, any lie is acceptable,
any forgery kosher....even the mockery of the pack rape of a minor is
a fair device.
Day in, day out you can see them doing it right here in the open on
the Net.
For five years I advocated the implementation of 'fair due process'
and the protective
"Guide lines and by laws" advocated by Abdul Baha....and all I got
was-
"You're an enemy of the Faith" and two 'Friends' presenting themselves
at my door on the false pretence of a "Social Visit".

They don't give a rats arse for your appeals to Baha'i
principles....they will continue to ignore you or misrepresent what
you
say...because you too are pegged as an enemy of the faith.

"In any case, the love will never die."

'Love' is the preparedness to >do< for others.
To protect against abuse, lie, false allegation, misrepresentation,
forgery, injustice and the theft of the Kingdom.

Love is already and long has been a lump of dead meat within the
Baha'i community.
