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 Groups, but, it looks like they were shut down by cyber

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.
