      The  report  in  the  New Testament  that  Jesus  of
Nazareth  said that a person  must give/lose their life to
gain  it  ---  has been interpreted in a wide  variety  of
ways:

     1.  A person must physically die --- to really live.

     2.  A person must in-practice daily-live
         in self-less service to really-live.

     3.  A person must NOT-enjoy-life to-really-live.

     4.  You cannot really-live if you attend to your own
         desires in any significant ways.

     5.  You must let go of your present ideals, values,
         hopes and aspirations --- to-really-live.

     6.  You must let other people tell-you-how-to-live;
         in order to-really-live.

     7.  You  must  live  your life in conformity  to  the
         rightly chosen scriptural injunctions --- to-
         really-live.

     8.  You must live your live in conformity to  the
         rightly  chosen  institutional guidelines ---
         to-really-live.

     9.  Any statement is descriptive --- or prescriptive.

     Domineering people  have encouraged some of the above
interpretations more than others ---  because doing so has
promoted  the  "Special-Interests"   of  "The   Domination
System" and its faithful domineering supporters.

     To  promote and facilitate both personal and communal
integrity --- we need to recognize,  name, describe,   and
talk about  the  pattern  of selective encouragement which
is  pointed  to  above.      So  long as that pattern   is
not recognized,   named, describe and talked about ---  so
long  it will continue to mislead many  vulnerable  people
who  are  blind,    deaf and dumb about  what  is   taking
place.     "The Domination System"   is not  dedicated  to
healing/curing its victims!

                                                                                                                               
                         (c) 2005 by Paul A. Smith in      
                    (On Being Yourself, Whole and Healthy)
