Well, that seems to have worked out well for you. Have you noticed that the desires you had back in the beginning are not the ones you have now? That desires become more modulated, almost like they are virtual, as if they are not quite real, and that only a few actually break surface enough to act on? You seem to cruise through FFL and what people say about you rarely seems to stick. What sort of courses are you taking? Advanced metallurgy? How to make crop circles using common garden implements and atomic fusion? Pulse diagnosis using time-slice topographic laser mapping (that means you do not have to touch the person)?
I spent part of the day lying on my back in the hospital getting samples extracted from my thyroid. I seem to have spent more time around hospitals lately, and not just for me. Maybe it is a function of advancing age. Someone close to me had a ruptured appendix. Now afterwards, friends mentioned they had friends or family that also had ruptured appendices (one each) and had died. Fortunately this turned out OK for my person, but people often delay thinking something else is wrong, and much to their surprise, they no longer exist. ---In FairfieldLife@yahoogroups.com, <sharelong60@...> wrote : Xeno, hopefully not embarrassing you by admitting that I save a lot of your posts. Often I don't understand them all. But the tone...ah, that straight forward and clear tone, like a stream in an unspoiled forest. And often with a little nugget of humor at the end. Pure delight! At the beginning of the year I began taking some online courses so my time for FFL has been less. That's when I more consciously began focusing on the posts that are enjoyable and or potentially beneficial. Or the ones for which I have a strong opinion. In the case of your posts, I just don't know what to say except thank you over and over. Kind of repetitive, yes? Perplexing enlightenment question?! Me?! I started TM because Maharishi said we would fulfill all our desires! 39 years later I realize that was the master's perfect trick to get me on the pathless path. And that exactly what I want is here now at each and every moment. On Wednesday, June 11, 2014 4:11 PM, "anartaxius@...

If it doesn't seem sincere and or if the poster seems to be itching for a fight, then I generally don't respond. But sometimes I do. I too think different things at different times. And sometimes I don't respond to a post because I am tired, or just fed up with FFL, but it seems that doesn't last long. Sometimes I think of opening a door and then do not, unless of course I change my mind, and then I do. Come on Share, what is your most perplexing enlightenment question? I'll hand it off to fleetwood_macandcheese so we can get the answer. This could be good. Unless of course this post is insincere. Do I sound sincere, or have I been a jerk lately?
