Bhairitu,

Yes, it's true the TMO has copyrighted certain mantras.  I'm sure you're 
familiar with the various mantras that the TMO uses.  Those mantras are applied 
specifically by age groups.  So, it would  be understandable how the TMO was 
able to justify the copyright for them.

All of these mantras are published on the Trancenet website.

Oh well, here you are, Merlin, trying to get a rise out of this group, and I 
applaud you for that - Yeah, this forum goes through its periods of more 
activity, and then less activity. You've caught us on a slow night I'm afraid, 
and here you are pissing on the floor and tossing firecrackers, throwing beer 
bottles through the windows, and that deserves a response, so the one question 
I come up with for you, is, when you refer to mysticism, and gnosis, aren't 
these just crude approximations of real life experience, the complete flow of 
life, indecipherable, that connects us to the earth and stars? Anyway, that's 
my question, Merlin-dude...

bonus quote from Free Inquiry, page 38, Oct/Nov 2011:

"If one prays to Hanuman, the Hindu monkey god, for relief from one's worldly

Hanuman will get the credit, and the religious belief will be strengthened".

Interesting, but I disagree with that. The Shakti-effect is something tangible

If he uses the same mantras as the TMO, he can be sued since the TMO has a

Finally two topics that I know something about, I think.

Just to clarify, by mating habits of Three Toed Sloth's you mean the mating 
that occurs naturally when a human catches one between trees on the ground and 
the human assumes that its lack of speed getting away and up a tree implies 
consent?  If so I am in with a grin and have a lot to say.  If it is about the 
"mating" the little slut does in the trees with other sloths, then no.  Still a

And when you say stamp collecting, you are referring, I hope, to the wax stamps 
used to seal letters that one automatically sends by the dozens to certain 
women who contact me telepathically on the metro and then act as if following 
them to where they work so I can get their address for the letters is like a 
federal crime! So if it is about that then I have a bunch of them.

Thanks for posting this. I have seen similar stats tracking the unusual and 
rapid decline of violent crime in the US. More sound, less fury. In spite of 
those here who have been seduced by their own negative views of life, 
Maharishi's strategies to bring Peace on Earth appear to be working quite well!

[FairfieldLife] Two nights during the blitz

2011-09-29 Thread rwr

Two nights during the blitz



One evening during the blitz in 1940 we (or rather they – I was bit
young for poker) were playing poker in the house and they thought this
will amount to nothing so they stayed there in the house. We were
supposed to have gone down in the Anderson shelter in the back garden by
our stables in the house at Tottenham Hale. Anyway the shelter had a
fucking great bomb drop on it and we would have all be dead if we were
in it. But we were OK in the house. One of my fathers young brothers
just got some shrapnel in his arm, that is all.



The next night they thought sod this, but there was no shelter to go in,
so they went down in an underground cellar in a factory across the raid
(Gestetners, they made duplicating machines).  Anyway, when we came up
in the morning the bloody lot of it had gone. Our house and one each
side of it.  I still have a few things from the wreckage two antique cut
glass wine decanters that were not touched and a wooden clothes horse :-
) my mother and I had no place to go and only the clothes which we stood
up in; so we walked the streets. So, if we had been in the shelter
either of those nights then – end of time :- )



My mother was a weaver in a factory just along the road, she ran four
big looms. The Stukers used to come down and machine gun them in the
streets when they were going and coming from work. Great fun eh. But it
only went on for six years. Man the stories I could tell :- )  My father
came home on leave for a while and he said sod this and was glad when he
got back to France out of the crap that rained down every day and night
he thought it was too dangerous here :- ) But we smiled and got on with
it. No good crying is it.

I have a theory that people who live in colder climates tend to be more 
cerebral and rule based because the winters are cold and they can't do 
much other than sit around and think.  Whereas more southerly and 
tropical environments where it is warmer most of the year and one can 
live off the fruits of the jungle tends to make people more emotionally 
based and more spontaneous because they don't have an incentive to sit 
around and think.

So scared of being busted



[ I call my self my name, my teen mother discovered I could not talk, so
she gave me a name, which I still arbitrarily use. When I grew up, I
selected my own name! Isn't that something!!

To you who espouse that you are a mystic, I suggest that 'guru buster'
with no attachment to it. You are not a guru/mystic or whatever and
neither am I, nor do I ever mention it. I walk silently about what I do,
however, please defend your claim to be a mystic, and that it's a
special position, at least from your writings you seem to think it is? I
have several friends who claim they are 'enlightened' - my response is,
I've seen enough of the 'enlightened' to know that's one of the last
'things' I would wish upon myself! Take away certain mental
proclivities, and all I've seen is self aggrandizement. Peace be upon
you!

Arhata  ]



Oh botherrations and suffering suffertags I am so worried about being
busted by a guru buster that I had better quit and keep me cake hole
buttoned.



Gone are the days when my heart was young and gay,

Gone are my friends from the cottages away,

Gone from the earth to a safer place I know,

I hear their gentle voices calling  Mer Lin O.



I'm coming, I'm coming, for my beer is getting low,

I hear their gentle voices calling Mer Lin O

Why do I sleep, when my heart should fight and strain,

Why do I sigh when my friends come not again?

Saddened for forms now departed long ago.

I hear their gentle voices calling Mer Lin O.



Where are the hearts once happy and so free?

The children so dear that once sat on my knee?

Gone to  a place where my self now has to go,

I hear their gentle voices calling Mer Lin O.



I'm a-coming. All down one leg and a bootfull.



But until I do go then let us get at em!  Actually it was NOT I who said
I was a mystic or a guru buster or a gnostic or called myself Merlin. It
was others. You should have been where the action was at years ago :- )

All you purchased from iTunes was the right to play the tune for 
yourself and not for use in your videos.  That requires another license 
entirely.   Just about any popular tune will require a clearance and 
they'll usually a fee paid.  But there are sites that have free music 
you can use with a Creative Commons license.  If you are musician you 
could create a tune that hints at Bobbie McGee but doesn't infringe.  I 
"hint" at the Beatles "Cry Baby Cry" in my "Republican Cry Babies" video 
but there is not enough there for them to claim infringement.

In Germany the young folks have started the "Pirate Party" as a new 
political group and they want to revamp copyright laws.  Those laws have 
become absurd.  Disney was the prime villain in the mess using the 
excuse that Mickey Mouse was falling out of copyright so they wanted it 
extended.  However research showed that the original "Steamboat Willie" 
was improperly copyrighted so Mickey has NEVER been protected by 
copyright law.  However Disney does hold a trademark on Mickey which is 
sufficient for their interests.  I think that what they were really 
going after was keeping the their 1930s era cartoon productions out of 
the public domain so they could keep selling them to the public.  Little 
kids don't know much difference between a 1930s cartoon (often better 
drawn) and a modern day one.

However Disney's actions are criminal as they have hampered innovation 
in society and stifled a lot of free speech.  Some copyright change 
advocates suggest a 3 year lifetime should be enough.  I would argue 15 
years.  If you can't make money off of it by then it wasn't worth 
anything anyway.  There is nothing new under the sun and chances are if 
you dig deep into the archives of traditional folk tunes you'll find 
about every melody existed before.  It's been said that Burt Bacharach 
has an extensive library of folks songs and would select a folk song 
close to what he wanted to write and base it on that.  That way if some 
nut job thought he stole his tune Burt could show that it was based on a 
200 year old folk song.  One could probably build computer searchable 
MIDI libraries of folk tunes and start a business to destroy song 
copyright lawsuits.  Most composers have no idea if they tune they've 
written has ever been written before.

Talking of guru busters Arhata Osho



Given that you call yourself a guru buster mister Arhata Osho or
whatever your bloody name is, that is such a big pathetic joke that I
feel obliged to give you a little tip; so listen up.  Somebody who does
guru busting would never ever call themselves a guru buster :- ) They
just do the job and then smile :- ) It is OTHERS who call them a guru
buster. I know :- )  Moreover, to call yourself a guru buster would
warn them that you were coming EVEN if you were one, which you aint :- )
You are just SO SILLY and out of it all.  But one would not warn them
that you are coming. You would play it cool to start with and get them
yakking, then you would put questions to them which they could not
answer, or lie in the attempt to, which is easily seen through. Man, you
really are clueless. Why don't you just carry on cutting and pasting
:- ) As if folks could not read the daily news for themselves :- ))
Oh, and if you don't like my English Accent, as you say, then tough
luck. It was our bloody language you know :-   NOEL :- )

There is simply no question how it would class guys who

[FairfieldLife] The joys of having a captive audience

2011-09-29 Thread turquoiseb
One of the joys of being somewhat of a troll by nature is knowing that
-- unlike many here -- I *know* that at least a few people on this forum
will read what I write, whatever I write. The few who like it will click
on the post and see if its subject matter interests them and then either
read it or not, depending on how they feel that day, and that's just
fine with me. The majority who have figured out that I rarely say
anything of interest to them will just click Next. But the ones who know
in advance that they *won't* like it, because it comes from...uh...ME,
will not only read it, but read every word.

They have to. They -- being classic trollvictims, and compelled to
answer and rebut anything that challenges either who they are or what
they believe, and knowing that I have done so in the past -- are
terrified to skip any post. They're afraid that I will mention them or
something they believe, and they won't have the opportunity to reply.

This gives me an advantage that they do not have. I really don't much
give a shit what they think (or say) about me. Besides, most of them are
so predictable that a discerning reader can figure out what they're
going to say in the body of their posts from the precis shown in Message
View. After all these years of predictability, why would anyone ever
need to read more?

This is Troll Heaven. I know that they'll be reading every word of every
post I write. Thus I get to write in these cafes about whatever the fuck
I want, including writing about subjects that I know will push the
buttons they wear on their sleeves that say, in big letters, PUSH ME. Or
not. Either way, they're MY captive audience. Their very obsession with
me makes them one.

Let's pause now, and allow them to try to find some way to deny it.

I don't see them as having gone wrong at all. To have gone wrong
implies that they were right before they went wrong. Were they right
before they went wrong?  I do see them wasting their time keep bashing
away at christiannuty to see what is wrong with that instead of studying
life and themselves and the phenomena of conscious experiential
existence. Just wasting all their precious time and efforts mate. Never

Big mistake. This is the Funny Farm Lounge, where
some gather to watch the machinations of crazy
people. True, some of the watchers are crazy, too,
but that just adds to the charm of the place. :-)

With all due respect, Dick, this seems to be yet
another of your periodic drive-bys, cruising for
attention. Have you ever considered just interacting
with people as if *they* were interesting, as opposed
to assuming that they'll reply to you because they
think you are? Hint: you're not. 

Not to be rude or anything, and not being interested
enough to look it up, didn't you announce on a previous
FFL drive-by that you were dying? I mean, we all are, 
but you made it sound more short-term, and as if it were
a done deal. What's up with that? If it was true, and
you're in remission from whatever it was, I wish you
nothing but the best. But I am curious.

[FairfieldLife] The Spain-Netherlands Conundrum

2011-09-29 Thread turquoiseb
Still puzzling over the differences between the Dutch culture and the
Barcelona culture, after my recent trip back there. I think it comes
down to living for the future vs. living in the moment.

Spain is to some extent a live-in-the-moment culture. Part of this is
that they're still emerging from the Franco years, one of the longest,
dreariest periods any people has had to endure. There is still an
ever-present appreciation for having the right to party, having the
right to dance, having the right to wear whatever you want, and having
the right *not* to have the Guardia Civil pound on your door in the
middle of the night to disappear you. If all of those things sound like
"inalienable rights" to you, as if they are to be taken for granted,
they were denied to the Spanish people for 40 years; to some extent
they're still making up for lost time.

Interestingly the youth, who never lived under Franco, caught the wave
of relief felt by their parents, and tend to party like there is no
tomorrow. I am told by the party crowd (and no, I'm SO not one of
them...too old) that part of the reason for the renewed popularity of
cocaine is to get people through the 72-hours-without-sleep marathons
that are Barcelona weekends. They add the cocaine to whatever E and Red
Bull they're living on. Not really my kinda scene.

Still, I really appreciated feeling an overriding sense of "enjoying the
Now" in Barcelona. I don't feel that as much here in the Netherlands. As
nice a culture as it is in many ways, I get the feeling -- except in
certain hoods in Amsterdam -- that most people have their lives all
planned out by the time they're 16, and rarely, if ever, deviate from
that plan. They may party down on Friday and Saturday nights, but rarely
Sunday night, because they have school or work the next morning, and
it's important to actually do a good job there. Which I appreciate. The
only worse work ethic I've ever seen to Spain's was in Hawaii; you
couldn't count on getting anything done in either place on a Monday or a
Friday if your life depended on it.

Anyway, these are just cafe ramblings pondering (yet again) the
usefulness of Road Trips. It's fascinating how just taking yourself out
of your normal environment for a few days allows you to view it as not
normal, and thus not to be taken for granted. I still prefer it here,
but I miss some of the spontaneous joy I got to take for granted in
Spain.

Nabby, even two hours of T&A couldn't get me to 
sit through another David Lynch movie. :-) I thank
you for the thought, but seriously I regret the two
hours I gave it as a favor to someone here more than
I do the hours I spent this month watching American
TV shows. At least I got paid for the latter. No
offense to your TM Hero, but he's really just an
indulgent, uninteresting filmmaker. I am convinced
that his fame is purely because of the obscurity of
his films; there is a certain element who think that
if something is obscure and hard to figure out, it's
actually saying something. I am not convinced that
Lynch has ever had anything to say. 

> Anyway I don't see how they would allow you a membership 
> at the silencio-club, so no need to fear the menu :-)

Fortunately, my feelings about private clubs echo 
Groucho's: "I wouldn't be a member of any club that
would have me as a member." The only exception I 
have ever made to this rule ( if you forget the TMO
and the Rama trip :-) was a members-only Japanese
club in Chicago. It was Japanese-only; the only 
reason they let me become a member (it only cost me
buying an expensive bottle of whiskey to live behind
the bar for me to drink from when I visited) was 
because legally they had to. They *hated* me being
there; other than expensive hookers accompanying
the Japanese businessmen, I was the only gaijin in
the place. But I wanted to soak up the atmosphere
of the place for something I was writing that had
Japanese characters in it, so it was worth it to me.

Having lived in Paris, and gotten into pretty much
every joint I wanted to, I doubt I'd have much of a 
problem getting into Dave's Cafe Indulgencia if I
wanted to. All it usually takes is flashing my watch
at the doorman; it's recognizably rare and expensive
enough that it has opened many doors for me. 

But why do you think I *wouldn't* be accepted as a 
member of such a club, if membership is really required?
Do you think that the scanners at the door would detect
my latent Buddhistic tendencies and set off an alarm? :-)

If Barry doesn't want to be reminded of his embarrassing
moment, he should refrain from bringing it up. Because
he looks RELY REEELY STOPID
when he does that and then portrays *me* as carrying a
grudge.

That's *quadrupling down* on the embarrassing moment.

First he revealed his murderous rage against two women
by calling us "dumb cunts too stupid to live." Then he
confirmed it represented his desire for us to die
violently by being the only person on FFL to realize I
was referring to that post when I later called it--
without naming him or quoting the post--a death threat.

If he had wanted to pretend that isn't what it was, he
should have feigned ignorance. But no, he had to double
down and embarrass himself a second time.

And now he's doubling down *again* by bringing it up
once more and claiming *I'm* the one holding the grudge.

If it upsets him when I remind folks of how it all went
down, he should keep his mouth shut and not hand me the
opportunity to do so on a silver platter.

And if he doesn't want to demonstrate for the umpteenth
time his obsession with me, he should find a good
exorcist who can help him evict me from his head.
Because he's obviously incapable of doing it on his own.

Om now I am more enlightened by Turqb.  Okay, Turqb could stay.  It is David 
Lynch though by evidence who should be restricted from posting here or there 
being any mention of him or his pornographic works until he gets right.  
Evidently facilitating the knowledge or even being a TM teacher is not enough. 
Being a an energetic corrupter of the spiritual in people is manifestly mortal

[FairfieldLife] More TV blather for those who watch it

2011-09-29 Thread turquoiseb
The first episode of "Terra Nova" was formulaic, but looks watchable, mainly 
due to Jason O'Mara in the lead, who was so good in the real (UK) version of 
"Life On Mars." He's got a hunky Everyman quality that'll serve his part well. 
Seeing Stephen Lang from "Avatar" as a good guy takes some getting used to, but 
he's OK. CGI seems adequate, and the plotting, although pedestrian and 
B-movie-ish, isn't too horribly embarrassing. I'll give it a few episodes...

I'm still watching "Unforgettable," mainly for the redhead factor, ignoring the 
fact that other than the trick of her remembering everything that has ever 
happened to her, it's a standard cop show.

I've almost given up on "New Girl," despite TM offspring Zooey Deschanel's 
adorablenessitude. You can only push that so far, and after two episodes it's 
already starting to wear on me.

"Alphas" doesn't really seem to be worth continuing to watch; standard "people 
with abilities" stuff, a la "Heroes." David Strathairn is wasted in it.

"Boardwalk Empire" is back and more of the same, which is generally a good 
thing. Same with "Nikita" and "Castle." I'll probably give "Prime Suspect" a 
try; Maria Bello is no Helen Mirren, but I liked her in the last scene of the 
pilot, so if she continues with that kinda toughness I'll give her a couple of 
more episodes. 

I'll sorta miss "Breaking Bad" when it goes dark after the next episode until 
next season. I still like Gus and Jesse, although Walt is at this point too 
dumb to live. I honestly don't know how they're going to find a way *to* keep 
him living; I suspect there will be a line in the script for the final episode 
that goes, "And then a miracle happens..."  :-)




[FairfieldLife] Why are you connected to a body Richard?

2011-09-29 Thread rwr

Why are you connected to a body Richard?



[ Why are you connected to a body here Richard? ]



Because THAT is the way it happened here mate. Read the book – The
Mystical Gnosis Event and the Human Situation.



But it is GREAT being connected to a body. Because I can touch your skin
and look into your eyes and I can feel your excited panting breath on my
neck. We can have fun in the fields of gold doing all the things which
the bishop says is naughty. And it is the light which shines out of your
eyes which puts the stars to shame; it is the smile which you offer me
that makes life worth living. Without you I am empty. I love you until
the end of days. And together we can bring more here.



http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=j9Zw4LeSt2w&feature=related




Don't forget however than in every body there is a real life person,
and they FEEL. Make them feel good. Incarnation is short lived. GRAB THE
DAY !

[FairfieldLife] What do I define as objective?

2011-09-29 Thread rwr

What do I define as objective?



[ What do you define as objective Richard? ]



Everything that is not me.  Isn't that obvious?  That which I am not
is objective. My body is objective, it is not me; it is OUT THERE.  The
world is objective, it is not me. The Ground of my Being, that
transcendent timeless place, is not me, it is objective. The middle
part, my soul/sub conscious workshop which connects Time to Eternity, is
not me, it is objective. IF you want to find out what you are NOT then
first find out what you ARE.  But if it does not interest you then fuck
it, read a book instead  :- ) I AM nothing but conscious awareness, the
lover of the loved, the knower of the known, the observer of the
observed. I have no material substance, no objective substance, before
time moved I AM ME. When time is no more I AM.



Seeing is not me, for it is I who sees. Thinking is not me, for it is I
that thinks (when in time that is). Hearing is not me, for it is me that
hears.  And if you are curious about the assertion of being made of
three parts than that is NOT ME it is EMANATION. I pass through them. I
am a journeyman, from Eternity for this purpose. Learn these thing for
yourself, not second hand from me.  I cannot eat or see or drink for
you. I cannot understand for you. You must do it.  What have you been
learning all these years and where have you been learning it? Life does
not charge us for learning.  Nor does it demand anything of us. It is
free. Even the kids in the slums amigo. You have only got to be there
and be with it, and it is done.  Learning is inevitable – unless you
deliberately block it out. When they ask me how one gets mystical
experience and inner learning I ask them as to how they do not.  Perhaps
they have a godo who does not like them ;- ) Best dump it in which case
and walk alone :- )  Pick up your bed and walk !

[FairfieldLife] But when a child comes here?

2011-09-29 Thread rwr

But when a child comes here?



[ But when a child comes here then how could he or she be sure that it
was not you here again? ]



:- )  It cannot :- )  But why should it assume that it is? Assumption
aint a good travelling companion mate. However, there IS a rather
profound point here, so try not to miss it. In a way every child IS me
in that they would all say I AM ME. I say that too, and always have. Do
you see?  PLUS EVERYTHING and Everyone is all connected up to the same
thing in the Ground of Being. That child is not me there, but it is the
I AM consciousness. Every living thing is my twin brethren. We are all
made of the same stuff – but strung together differently. Life and
existence is so bloody clever mate – ONE thing is easy to get your
head around but the multiple variety is bloody astonishing. Go figure.
In the meantime tis best to just live your life and be yourself and try
to make the most of it and do the best which you can always, and do no
harm.  That is not bloody hard is it. And no matter who I bloody was or
will be then I will always be ME ! Live one lifetime at a time eh, and
make it one worth living. Go and leave footprints in the sands of time.
Let the bastards know that you were here :- )  We are all bastards you
know, we haven't got a daddy.  Or a mummy for that matter. 
DON'T try to make everything in your own physical likeness. Enjoy
the OTHERNESS. I and THOU.
