    %DISHONEST ABOUT TECHNIQUE MANIPULATIVE CONTROL 900915

     It   is  easy  to  be  dishonest  about   techniques,
manipulations and efforts to control---and to mislead self
and others about such matters.

     It  is not easy to be dishonest as  regards  personal
presence  and  being authentically present in  a  personal
relationship  in which the focus is upon whole persons  as
persons;  rather than upon techniques,  manipulations  and
the power to be in control.  Successful dishonesty in this
latter case is not easy to achieve.  Successful dishonesty
in  the former case is easy to achieve,  but  not  without
loss of personal and communal integrity.

     Beware of people who are preoccupied with techniques,
manipulations and efforts to be in control---for they  may
be  avoiding authentic personal relationships within which
their patterns of dishonesty would be exposed.
