I mean all members, people who say they are members.
I live one place and know many people in other places, so I try to stay out of current affairs where I may know just enough to get myself in trouble without meaning to. But to me there are no good members and bad members. Most of my good friends are capable of behaving badly if they are trapped or scared to death. Most of the people I like least, I have no trouble according the fact of membership and wishing them well. I was taught to be careful not to wish harm to another members because we get what we wish for, even if we meant it for someone else. Membership gives identification and that means when I pray for you, I pray for me. When I look for ways for things to work out for you, they work out for me. When I try to be considerate of you and your feelings, I am being considerate of my own feelings.
Obcession and compulsion are dangerous because they short out the thinking processes. I compared it once with a spastic muscle that draws up and can't function because it cannot relax.
In Loving Service,
