Appak

It is apparent that you touched many. May all of the good that you inspired be with you on your journey, and your wonder not be lost to you just because you are lost to us. Find well the knowledge you seek.

Wishing you all the best on your continued journey Appak. We'll see you on the other side...

I have come to this thread late...

Never knew Appak, but the love and devotion that is evident has been touching.

THIS reminds me why ATS is a site that defies the others....because, after all has been said, it is still a community.

'Nuf about that, lest it get schmaltzy....

I could care less about learning the 'secrets'...we all will die, eventually. Either you cease to exist, or your 'spirit' continues in some form. I don't know...do you???

Why don't you just leave the thread.
You have nothing positive to add, clearly don't get humour or specifically tongue-in-cheek humour.
This man got news that would shatter anyone's world and cause them all manner of upset and turmoil.... yet he comes on here and posts an extremely moving and poignant farewell and nearly everybody on the thread "got it" but you and a couple of others have to bring your masonic vendetta in here... NOT THE PLACE.

The man has now died.

Go to some other thread and leave people alone.

For me....i didn't even notice the masonic (piss take) title after I'd read the OP.... perhaps you should have also read it.

What the **** is wrong with people...seriously, seeing some of the responses and the posts removed has made me sick to my stomach.

Reading through this thread made me so proud to be an ATS member...a real sense of loss and community spirit....even people like myself who didn't know this member, were touched.

Please don't ruin it.

take your hate elsewhere.

Never knew him and I don't recall reading to much of his posts either.

However, the gathering here, all the wishes, good lucks and condolences are very touching.

I can't understand how some have such a hard time showing humbleness towards a member who just past away as well as his family.

My thoughts and condolences goes to Appak and his family.

Never again will he need to endure pain.
Sleep well my dear ATS member.

"May the force be with you"

Wow, what a beautiful way to go. In the arms of your family, at home, knowing your time has come and not afraid to go.

I heard that the soul stays around for a couple of days, before it finally goes home. I won't be expecting a post or a visit from you, but God bless you wherever you are now.

Respectfully,
Samuel

There is the light and in the center of the light the essence of the light being. The light only knows how to shine. It has one mode that is the light. the essence at the center of the light is love. this is how the light expands and pulsate and come into being. The light and the essence are one and the same.

You are the same. Farewell

(((((((((((((((((((HUGS and PRAYERS TO Appaks Family)))))))))))))))

I loved you Appak ....even if we did have our debates ....I know you know that and I will truly miss you ....I am so sorry I missed this thread I wish I could have hugged you before you left us ....Rest in peace friend ....

RIP fellow truth seeker.

Now you know more than anyone.

My hat is off to all the folks on both sides of the Masonry issue for your civility, decorum and heartfelt posts.

Many of us have fought fierce battles in this forum but I think it's an incredible testament to all of you to put aside your feelings and come together to show love and respect to Appak.

No matter what differences of conviction we have, I believe we have all realized this week that we at least have a common bond - both as ATSers and as human beings.

Soon we will turn our attention back to pandemics, aliens, politics, reptiles and religion. And even though our minds and voices will once again focus on fighting the good fight, I don't think we will ever forget this incredible thread and the man who created it, and the few halcyon days when we laid down our swords and spoke from our hearts.

Thank you for posting during this hard time Patti.

I wish you and your loved ones peace and comfort at this time.

Rest in Peace Paul.
