yes, the heat has been quite oppressive. sometimes the mental stuff can get in the way of a good nights sleep. not often, but still, occasionally.

Instead, I'm going to launch into my usual tirade against TM and MMY" Probably you are taking the Hitler comment out of context. I get the feeling that you probably spend a lot of time searching for any positive news about TM and then send a barrage of what you feel are the misrepresentations, whether they are skewed, or not, which is unfortunate since you make many good points, but the fact that you are willing to skew many other aspects and not address inconsistencies in your finds, overall reduces your credibility.

One day you'll get a bunch of posts here about how he wasn't qualified to be a teacher of meditation because of this reason or that reason, or that he didn't follow the traditional Indian protocols, and then the next day you'll get an equal number of posts describing what a traditional Hindu he was, trying to foist that agenda on his organization. I will say that there was an emphasis put on the Hindu side of things. Hindu holy days etc. I never had a problem with it, but it isn't of much interest to me now. ---In FairfieldLife@yahoogroups.com, <steve.sundur@...> wrote : Hey Michael, how you doin'? Now, that is sort of funny. That wasn't the question I asked, but you have knack of tying anything to your usual theme. Yes, no doubt there was a lot of repetition in MMY's message. Yes, it could get rather dull. But for me, well, I found many gems. I gained insight into Vedic knowledge and Hindu scriptures. You hear the criticism that M was no student of Hinduism or the Vedas. And it seems that most of that criticism centers on the mantras, or whether he was qualified to have the role of a teacher, or one of so many other "technical" points. Like any of that mattered to me. Not! I found his knowledge of the Vedas to be profound. I think his commentary of the Gita was profound. Please, show me otherwise, other than some technical point that because he wasn't a Brahman, he wasn't authorized to have the role he assumed. I'm not saying that things didn't get a little topsy turvy in the last 15 years ago, because I think they did, but I'm still riding the wave of what I got. And yes, I got my money's worth. ---In FairfieldLife@yahoogroups.com, <mjackson74@...> wrote : When did Marshy ever change? He told the same old story for decades and lied every time he told them.

When a person returns to posting after being away for a while, you expect a fresh perspective, like we got from RD, with that beautiful poem, and also noticing that she refrains from participating in negativity.

Like I say, I'm not sure if Richard said something that triggered Edg on this last round, but it seemed to come out of nowhere.
