But with respect, is that really true? 
I’m outspoken in favour of the LHP (my definition of what that is, and why it cannot be run alongside RHP is here for anyone interested) and yet I reached this conclusion after many years spent ON the RHP, committed to that, both because I thought it was the most moral path, and also, as a kind of meta-suicide to escape this reality.
I therefore am neither leaving power on the table (so to speak) when I reject all RHP-oritented GOALS (such as merger and loss of ego, dissolution into formless harmony with the All) nor am I required to avoid anything useful I find in a book by an author for whom that’s thewir final goal.
While that’s just one experience, I know I’m not the only person who is now committed to the LHP but has gone a long way along the RHP first, and therefore I am speaking out because I see straw-men all over different kinds of discourse, be it spiritual, political, there’s always “those dumb people we all know about who do X” and yet almost no-one has actually found one exact example that fits that narrative, and has nothing more complex going on.
