turq, all posters are acting as surrogates for the Laws of Nature and teaching you that having to scroll past certain posts is not the challenging activity you might have thought it is. turq had written to Jason: 2. Yahoo is acting as a surrogate for the Laws Of Nature, and teaching you that time is not the linear concept you believed it was. Posts arrive when it is their time to arrive, not when you want them to arrive.

Alex, Rick, I am again in a pig muck pit... Alex says, completely without bias: :-) > > I remain absolutely, completely, totally delighted with the absence > of posting limits. Thanks for asking! To be honest, it would be the same group of angry, deranged harpies playing dueling egos with each other and forcing everyone else either to read them or scroll past them with the same rapidity you'd walk through a bad neighborhood in the Bronx, even *with* posting limits. All that the lack of them does is just encourage these ego-bots to indulge in their embarrassing behavior as much as they want to. It just strikes me as a rather unsettling commentary on the promises of the TM technique that at least two of its long-term (probably 40+ years or regular practice in each case) practitioners seem to believe (as demonstrated by their behavior on this forum) that their lives revolve around starting and "winning" (in their minds, at least) arguments on the Internet. Another commentary is provided by the number of other long- term TM practitioners on the forum, who are so bored or so pussified that they either let them get away with this, or actually join in. Nice to have a real-world, where-the-rubber-meets-the-road demonstration of what Maharishi meant by TM delivering "heaven on earth," isn't it? "...the Science of Creative Intelligence® provides a practical means to unfold the permanent experience of higher states of consciousness and offers the theoretical understanding of that experience which is necessary for the most rapid growth towards enlightenment." Example: - "Such-and-such is a liar." - "Is not." - "Is so." - "Is not, and you're loathsome for calling him one." - "Am not." - "Are so."
