"V has humbled himself as a seeker with the rest of us. moreless holds himself up as a leader and an example. that is a big difference."
I do agree that in some posts V has stated as much... not so sure that your understanding of ML as holding himself up as leader and example is correct. I think more as a teacher, passing the flame. We are looking at him from different angles.
Many take issue with the information he passes on as incorrect. I cannot, I am still avoiding wheel chairs and/or knee replacements and getting stronger every day...
The only thing I have ever consistently done besides exercise and eat the best I can is his protocol.
