No, it's not a weird thing to say. It's the obvious but I don't think
you got it.

Right, a small group of around 1,600, including yourself.

Plus all the thousands who learned TM years ago, thought it was just a
bit of a relaxation technique and have little interest in people still
interested in TM or who used to be interested. They could care less
about a Yahoo Group like this. But there is a small group who still
think that TM is the center of the universe.

The disaffected is probably in the hundreds or even thousands by now:
banned and shunned. Why else would anyone want to subscribe to a
group like thus? But, there is a strange silence from the current
campus student population. Maybe they are scared.

Don't know. Is there more than one FFL moderator? Right.

So, how many have been banned from the Dome? Apparently none of the
FFL moderators are in good standing with the TM Org. One was actually
banned, right?

So, you called them on their "shit" and you are an adult. And, there
are no victims from banning and shunning at the MUM campus. It's a
matter of personal choice, to get banned from the Dome. I would
suppose that everyone posting to FFL has been banned from the MUM
campus, right?
So, why is Doug, the moderator, so upset?

FFL2 is very much active, if you care to join and post there. The
ones who caused so much trouble here went to FFL2, until they got
called on their shit, and made tracks, willingly. We are all adults
here, making our own decisions. There aren't any victims. Those who
have chosen to exclude themselves did it by choice, without any
prompting. As for those booted from FFL for inadequate social skills,
live and learn.
So, howz about some of that "controversial spirituality" from you,
huh? Let's see how much you are banned, shunned, stalked and harassed
after sharing it...but I won't be holding my breath. Your fantasy
doesn't hold up.
There are mostly those who get along in the world, and there are a
few fuck ups. The fuck ups unfortunately leak their garbage onto
others, and for that reason are not welcome here. Get it? Could be a
site about *shoes* and the same rules apply.

One of the other FFL moderators created a "free speech" zone on Yahoo

following them around on the internet.
Kicked out of the Dome and banned from campus - shunned. Banned from
FFL and stalked. This just doesn't appear to be much of a spiritual
group. Now that's ironic!

Well, at least FFL and Doug aren't like The Corner where there is a
bouncer at the door with a prepared list of those who can't even get
in the room. Talk about censorship and lack of free speech. In
addition, you can't even read anything there unless you are on the
list of approved individuals. And the guy who started that forum and
those who are in attendance were the ones giving Doug a hard time
about the lack of free speech at FFL. Too ironic to be believed.
Luckily, since I know everyone over there and have heard what they
have to say about a hundred times I'm not remotely interested in
getting admitted. Some things just don't get better with age.

In Doug's defense, not one person has *ever* been banned from FFL for
not meeting his definition of "spiritual".
The reason a few were banned, is that they lacked basic social
skills, and were more interested in being a pain in the ass, vs.
contributing anything of substance. Had nothing to do with content,
and everything to do with not playing well with others, due to
immaturity, a lack of manners, and no self-discipline.
Perhaps you could quit making shit up? Thanks in advance...///////

What you may not realize is that the way you're running this
discussion forum is just like they run the Dome - banning and
shunning people that don't meet your definition of spiritual.
You're obviously selling TM and using your position as FFL moderator
to enforce guidelines "as a primary retributive tool to discipline a
sales force."
Maybe you could set us straight by answering a few questions.
What is your exact position, if any, with MUM?
Are you a re-certified TM teacher in good standing with the TM Org?
Did you graduate from the university, and if not, why not?
Sometimes, you seem to be posting under various aliases. Why is that?

This kind of thing is just bad irony and publicity for what is going
on here.
It is plenty past time to just go and gut the Dome guidelines of the
‘non-compete’ clauses particularly around the practice of jyotish.
Fairfield is full of people secretly promoting and
practicing jyotish and giving readings. Every time the Weekly
Reader boldly publishes astrology from David Hawthorne it is a
reminder of how he and his family in moving to Fairfield to be part
of something larger were ridiculously judged and screwed by the
movement. This is just plain bad for the energetics of the community
here.
Everyone gets the irony of going to Pat Hayward for consultation too.
Everyone at all levels of the ™ movement does it.
It is quite time to stop using the Dome badge guidelines as weapon-ry
against the community. IThis has been Self-destructive all along.
The Dome badge guidelines need to be made much simpler to what it
simply takes to run a group meditation and stop using the Dome badge
guidelines as a primary retributive tool to discipline a sales force;
let administration of a sales force of the re-cert TM teachers be the
particular dealings of an HR or legal departments for the teaching
side [Maharishi Foundation] of the movement.
It is time to damn and dump those ‘non-compete’ clauses around the
practice of jyotish.
