Can't serve two masters. Either one is DOING the path, or one is sitting addle-brained in a chatroom TALKING about what one is NOT doing, creating and dispensing rumors, and generally wasting tremendous amounts of time and energy that can never be regained.
I disagree. I don't think you can really tell if someone (say a colleague or acquaintance) is on the Path (or not) unless you know them intimately. What we, as warriors -- do with our free time or as folly really may not be much reflection of our Path or inner (spirit) Work.
