Fleetwood writes: Yes, I had an excellent teacher, Dennis Greeley(sp?), a very gentle guy - I met him nearly twenty years later, in the early '90's, as we both rode a *very rickety* elevator, up the new TM building, then being renovated, in Washington, DC. He was eating chocolate ice cream, and laughing about something. On the course I was on, we had to be careful of the closets in our rooms, as they had no floors, and one could plummet several stories, if not careful. Thankfully, no one did -- restful alertness - lol In FairfieldLife@yahoogroups.com mailto:FairfieldLife@yahoogroups.com, dhamiltony2k5@... mailto:dhamiltony2k5@... wrote : I cherish my relationship to my TM initiator and all that that connects me to. Jai Guru Dev, -Buck in the Dome TM teachers, anyone?? Whoa there. For my own TM teacher, someone who had journey-ed to learn to teach this and come to the wilderness of the West, I do puja to my TM initator every time I say or think, “Jai Guru Dev”. Jai Guru Dev, -Buck in the Dome Punditster agrees: Fleetwood writes: Many of the old texts that talk about this state of natural freedom are not useful for modern times, and householders, so it is a fun time, now, to see the truth or otherwise, of these early texts on enlightenment. Equally satisfying is being able to quickly put the lie to those who would keep enlightenment shadowy and vague, so as to exploit others for their desire for it. Or pointing out those making a mountain of their puny experiences, as a few have here, on FFL - ex-TM teachers, anyone?? Ye are the salt of the earth. Mankind, lying in ignorance and wickedness, were as a vast heap, ready to putrify; but Christ sent forth his disciples, by their lives and doctrines to season it with knowledge and grace. If they are not such as they should be, they are as salt that has lost its savour. If a man can take up the profession of a Christ, and yet remain graceless, no other doctrine, no other means, can make him profitable. Our light must shine, by doing such good works as men may see. What is between God and our souls, must be kept to ourselves; but that which is of itself open to the sight of men, we must study to make suitable to our profession, and praiseworthy. We must aim at the glory of God [The Unified Field].
