Absolutely Nablusoss, This was said before but the urgency of it deserves to be brought up again: "Well understand, actually most of the research thus far on the Meissner Effect (ME) was on 'meditators' in a population. The "yogic flying" studies came along later and evidently are only pilot at best. By comparison with the meditation population studies the "yogic flying" studies are infant. This is a lot of the urgency now to get 2000 sidhas or "yogic flyers" together to research long-term. By hook or crook. By Western meditators or hired in pundit boys from India if the experienced westerners of the old TM-movement will not show up. This is incredibly high-minded stuff. Even a small fraction of individuals in the population engaging in meditation practice has been found to reduce stress in cities, states, nations, and the world, as seen by reduced war deaths, terrorism, and crime and increased cooperation, cultural exchanges, and creativity." -Buck --- In FairfieldLife@yahoogroups.com, nablusoss1008 <no_reply@...> wrote: > > > > --- In FairfieldLife@yahoogroups.com, "seekliberation" <seekliberation@> > wrote: > > > > > > > > --- In FairfieldLife@yahoogroups.com, nablusoss1008 <no_reply@> > > wrote: > > > > > Buck didn't say that this is your last chance for enlightenment ever.
