Oh gawd, not the friggin' chapel drama again. When I was at MIU, I had to meditate on the rock-hard pews in that mold-filled shithole. It was full of mold because the roof leaked; they threw a bunch of money at the roof, and it didn't stay fixed because the foundation was crumbling. It was gonna cost around half a million dollars to fix the foundation, and it didn't make sense to spend that kind of money on a building that wasn't all that useful to the university.
Plus, it was also Sthapatya Vedicly wonky. OMG!!! SATANIC HINDOOS WHO HATE JEEBUS DESTROYED A CHURCH!!!!! But, the old St. Mary's Catholic Church, which was built within 5 years of Barhydt Chapel and had similar severe structural issues, was also torn down. :::: crickets chirping :::: No one gave two shits that the Catholics tore down their own old church building. ---In FairfieldLife@yahoogroups.com, <dhamiltony...@yahoo.com> wrote : Large meeting. A lot was said and listened to from both vantages, the stage and the crowd. Someone in the meeting observed this had the similar feeling as in community meetings of earlier days held on campus in the Barhydt Chapel, when so much was collaboratively done by so many. A radical group tore down the old Barhydt Chapel, may be this is an attempt to rebuild what was not replaced when the old Chapel was torn down. There was a sense of harmony and collaboration in this meeting, something to build on.. A lot of areas to consider. More meetings to follow after this week’s Commencement program and meetings of the Board of Trustees for the University. ---In FairfieldLife@yahoogroups.com, <dhamiltony...@yahoo.com> wrote : FW, Notes from 6-21-17 Communal Meeting: An incredibly powerful , coherent community meeting took place last night (Wed.) at Phoenix Rising Hall. Approximately 275 people filled the hall to overflowing, with dozens sitting in aisles and standing in the back, and a large group of M.U.M. Trustees in front, with Tom Stanley, VP of MUM Board of Trustees, MCing the meeting, and Dr. John Hagelin and Mayor Ed Malloy also responding to comments and suggestions from the floor . A fer a Welcome by Trustee Tom, Dr. Hagelin briefly summarized the just - finished spectacular Ukraine Peace Conference attended by over 500 VIP s - the highest stature gathering ever exposed to the Peace Solutions we practice, and an inspiring overview of our community history by Mayor Malloy. By far most of the meeting consisted of suggestions and comments from the floor, regarding the state of our IAA Sidha community. Interestingly, about two thirds of the suggestions and comments had to do with the IAA, Super Radiance, and the Domes. A powerful, tangible sense of re-awakening of our community spirit continued to build throughout the evening. Near the end of the meeting, Trustee Chris Wege gave a very stirring synopsis of what brought us here, holds us here, and the intense potential for growth and development that still exists here. . . in collaboration. Again and again, comments returned to supporting and growing the Invincible America Assembly, as though the group consciousness knew that the IAA (everyone who comes to Group Program) is the core of our community and M.U.M. The meeting was so successful, that was obvious, that more meetings will take place , with Trustee Tom Stanley announcing that.

An incredibly important meeting for how it may go, one way or another for sometime to come, for the meditating community in Fairfield, Iowa. Leadership of the ™ movement to meet directly for a discussion with the meditating community in town. It seems not very well or widely promoted in the way that connects with meditators who live in Fairfield. I am running in to sympathetic TM movement types who are active communitarians who are not much aware of this rare opportunity to meet with upper management. Unfortunately some number of hundreds of Fairfield meditators who are active in making their lives in Fairfield are in Chicago right now seeing Ammachi. ---In FairfieldLife@yahoogroups.com, <dhamiltony...@yahoo.com> wrote : On Wednesday, June 21, MUM President John Hagelin, Fairfield Mayor Ed Malloy, and MUM Trustees invite the community to meet the Trustees who will be here in person for this year’s meetings (15-20 people), and join them in an open discussion of how we can advance the goals we share for the University, our community and our world.
