Spirituality Beyond Personal Happiness

Lisa at Mommy Mystic has me as a guest. She puts a lot of attention on the last couple chapters of Original Faith, which I found hardest to find language for --

Thanks, Lisa!

Matt and Tuti, thanks.

Am I the only one out there with a big increase in spam? It's been about a week with between one and three most days.

Often they target your back posts, seems so odd - how many people read your posts from a year ago? Plus when you put up comments moderator, you get a notice that it's there and you delete it, so it's not like they're slipping one past the goalie...

I don't get it. Must be that they generate such a huge amount of spam that some of it sticks.

i don't put up comments moderator, but i get a email notice whenever there's a new comment, so i'll go delete it if it's spam.
i think it's a robot which posts all these spam all over.

but for some specific posts, it's targeted by humans, eg. for advert kind of posts, a competitor would go stick comments on them, so when the search engine catches on the post, they get a free ride-on.

Tuti - Four or five just today. With my long times without access to the computer, I think they'd pile up too much, so for now I'm glad for comments moderator...

so busy talking spam that I forgot why I was here to begin with. sheesh. brain is failing...

Read the interview and enjoyed it very much. Interesting how an interview can reveal so much even to those of us who hang out here regularly.

Paul, I haven't so many as you, but yes, I've gotten a sudden increase in spam - as you say, targeting back posts. I don't get it either... don't understand the purpose.

Hayden - I'd been wondering if other people were getting hit.

Here's a totally new one to me: one spam made it through comments moderator. I absolutely did have comments moderator on and it somehow got through...

Patty and Hayden, glad you liked the interview --

And I still haven't read your book. I think I will read it when the time comes. :) I saw Matrix a couple of days back for the first time. And well I found that it had something for me to learn from, something which I would have not understood even an hour earlier ;)

Commented on it Paul.

I can't help but notice, that a sense of despair is what eventually leads us to seeing things better...It is funny, how today what happened in the past might look funny and we realize how things could have been different. But we all tend to hold on to a few things at different points of time. Maybe it that something is threatened or is taken away from us, we do feel hopeless lost.

There are many who ask me, how at 15,16,17,18 I can talk about spirituality etc..I guess it is the way I felt and my experiences as a whole..Age is no bar I guess to such things...Wisdom before you have wisdom teeth is very much possible :P

Vishesh - It does seem like some people care a lot about meaning-of-life issues early in their lives, whereas others not till much later.

That'd be great if you were to read it sometime - and if you do, don't hesitate to email with any questions/comments, I'll get back to you even if it can't be right away.

word verification for spam might work. can turn that on. a few bloggers are using that, quite successfully.
