So the countries with the highest percentage of TMers - and living in coherence creating groups - have the highest murder rate? Fascinating.

The comparable rate is 0.4 in Japan, 0.8 in Germany, 1.0 in Australia 1.1 in France and 1.2 in Britain. That's more worrying than one murder in Fairfield or what one retarded poster, to an obscure blog run by an administrator happy to let it remain un-moderated, is capable of doing in RL. ---In FairfieldLife@yahoogroups.com, <turquoiseb@...> wrote : From: nablusoss1008 <no_re...@yahoogroups.com> To: FairfieldLife@yahoogroups.com Sent: Tuesday, April 8, 2014 11:19 AM Subject: [FairfieldLife] Re: "The Maharishi Murderer" With a constructed title like that the TMO ought to sue Michael Jackson (!) from A to Z and back again. I repeat my contention about "not dealing with rational people." Nabby goes on to make excuses for Shuvender Sem (and, conveniently, for the TMO), while wanting revenge against Michael for merely quoting a line from the PR blurb he reposted. Nabby is clearly not the *least* bit upset about the murder. He's upset that a new round of publicity is going to begin exposing the "Maharishi Effect" as the lie it always was, and the defenders of it as the liars they always were. The larger issue he will never deal with is "WTF went wrong with the supposed ME that a student 'doing program' as he was told to do in the exact dead center of all of this powerful Woo Woo went off and killed someone?" According to official TM press releases and dogma, this is simply not possible. And yet it happened. Rather than deal with this, and the fact that it provides convincing proof that the ME is and always was a lie, Nabby would prefer to shoot (or in this case, sue) the messenger. What a classic cultist he is, and what a waste of human life. But probably they realize his mental problems are so profound that they won't bother. The USA might have different laws. In Europe seriously disturbed persons, or persons with an IQ below 50 are not liable for their actions and are sentenced to psychiatric wards. ---In FairfieldLife@yahoogroups.com, <mjackson74@...> wrote : New Autobiography Gives Insight into Maharishi Murder Tue, 19 Feb 2013, 14:47:52 EDT Edited by Debra Tone LANCASTER, Pa., Feb. 19, 2013 (SEND2PRESS NEWSWIRE) -- It is a story that could only be written by one person. A compelling autobiography that not only pushes the boundaries of sanity, it takes readers on a frightening voyage to meet it face-to-face. "Murder and Misunderstanding; One Man's Escape from Insanity" (ISBN-13: 978-1479256969) is the story of Shuvender Sem, who on March 1, 2004 became known as "The Maharishi Murderer." The murder took place in Fairfield, Iowa, on the campus of a university that prided itself on non-violence. The Maharishi University of Management used a variety of techniques towards its non-violent goals including twice-daily use of Transcendental Meditation. It was to no small degree that this setting put the murder in the national spotlight. In one moment Sem was a college student. In the next he was "The Maharishi Murderer." Shuvender killed freshman Levi Butler without provocation on the campus by stabbing him four times in the chest with a paring knife. The murder took place following an incident earlier in the day when Sem stabbed a student with a pen. That previous incident led to the student getting seven stitches to his face. Deemed competent to stand trial, the judge ruled he was "not guilty by reason of insanity" at the request of both the defense and the prosecution. Against popular belief, NGRI is an extremely rare plea, used in less than one percent of criminal cases. A not guilty result is even more uncommon, occurring just one-quarter of one percent of the time. Now, after years of psychotropic medications and intense therapy, Shuvender is telling his story of schizophrenia in his autobiography, "Murder and Misunderstanding; One Man's Escape from Insanity." It is not only an extremely rare look into the mind of a killer from his own perspective, but it is also a deeply personal story that explores the darkest, most grim places of the mind. "Our mental health system is broken. We need to fix this before more crimes are committed," says Sem. In his book, Shuvender tells of his relationship with his father, and the events that led to that day on campus. He describes his struggle with, and eventual escape from this misunderstood illness. It is a story of recognition and realization. A story of redemption desired, and hope delivered. It is a book written to serve as a beacon for those with schizophrenia and their families, by a man who was held in its strongest grips, and managed to escape. Shuvender Sem, or Shubi as he is known, now speaks publicly about his experience with schizophrenia in the hopes of helping others. He is available for presentations and Q&A sessions for law enforcement, mental health groups, attorney associations, academic institutions and others who may feel they can benefit from his story. The self-told story of Shuvender Sem, "Murder and Misunderstanding; One Man's Escape from Insanity" is available at http://www.ShuvenderSem.com/ http://www.shuvendersem.com/ . The book is available in paperback; as well as Kindle, iPad and Nook digital editions.
