I agree with everything you said. I just have a feeling that bringing pundits to Fairfield hasn't been high on M's priority list.

It sounded to me like MMY was placating Bob Wynne. He doesn't like to say no to people directly. It's an Indian cultural thing. Say yes so as not to hurt their feelings (or make yourself uncomfortable) even though you have no intention of doing the thing. Bob took him at his word and published the conversation. I've gotten the impression all along that the pundit thing here was the result of Bob badgering MMY on the idea, and that the latter was never overly enthused about it. * You're overlooking clear evidence that the visas were not granted, and if the TMO built a $4.5 million trailer park and sought the visas and the pundits are not coming only because the visas were denied, then all the talk about Maharishi saying that the pundits should not come now because of the parents' concern about safety is just a cover story. The fact is, everybody, MMY and the whole TM mgmt crew, wanted the pundits to come, but the job was botched. MUM's lawyer was saying in 2003 that he was getting assurances from the highest level of the State Dept that the visas were no problem, but I had published a report from the June 2003 issue of Scientific American noting that low-level employees make visa decisions, and those decisions cannot be overturned even by the Secretary of State http://geocities.com/bbrigante/pundits.html#sciam -- if the TMO had bothered to consult with immigration attorneys, they would have found that the pundits' poverty was indeed a problem (actually MUM has had visa problems before with real college students from India, guys who speak English, unlike the uneducated pundits http://www.mum.edu/TheReview/02-03/1-22-03.html#3 ), and if MUM had tried to get 25 or so visas before building the campus in Vedic City, then this whole ridiculous situation of having a useless trailer park could have been avoided. Obviously some use will be found for it eventually, but for now it's a half-paid-for bunch of metal boxes that have no purpose, and it's likely to make donors real unhappy that their money was thrown away by the typical bone-head play of TM management. The TMO is always going off half-cocked like this -- the big dog-and- pony show to the island of Rota is just one of the many foolish spectacles enabled by a failure to talk with expert lawyers in the relevant field and a grandiose sense that yogic flyers who can't fly will be able to talk their way out of anything: http://geocities.com/bbrigante/retards.html#gradual To subscribe, send a message to: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Or go to: http://groups.yahoo.com/group/FairfieldLife/ and click 'Join This Group!'

[FairfieldLife] Deceiving ourselves
A while back, Akasha and I kicked around the topic of whether people who have deceived themselves into believing bullshit are actually liars, or if their belief in their position changes the case. Well, yesterday the Boston Globe ran a profile of evolutionary biologist Robert Trivers, whose work addresses self-deception from the point of view of its value in propagating genes. So I thought this post might interest Akasha and L B and maybe a few others. A sidebar worded the thesis this way: Whether it's convincing a predator that you're a leaf or fooling another bird into raising your young, deceit is an evolutionary strategy with a long and innovative history. But as evolution selects for better and better cheaters, it should also select for better and better cheating detectors. For example, Trivers argues, humans might have evolved to detect the sort of nervous tics that betray a lie. But there's a counter-strategy: self-deception. If we don't know we're lying, then we won't act like we're lying, and are more likely to get away with it. More, from the article: The book on deceit and self-deception that he's now starting grows out of a brief but widely cited passage from his introduction to Dawkins's ''The Selfish Gene.'' If deceit, he wrote, ''is fundamental to animal communication, then there must be strong selection to spot deception and this ought, in turn, to select for a degree of self-deception, rendering some facts and motives unconscious so as not to betray- by the subtle signs of self-knowledge-the deception being practiced.'' Thus, the idea that the brain evolved to produce ''ever more accurate images of the world must be a very naive view of mental evolution.'' We've evolved, in other words, to delude ourselves so as better to fool others-all in the service of the great game of propagating our genes. Trivers speaks: ''It's a critical topic. How many pretenders to the throne have there been? Marx had a theory of self-deception, Freud thought he had the topic knocked. So there've been a lot of major-domos in there. None of that [expletive] survived the test of time, so it's a huge opportunity.'' The full article is The evolutionary revolutionary: In the 1970s, Robert Trivers wrote a series of papers that transformed evolutionary biology. Then he all but disappeared. Now he's backand ready to rumble.

By whatever method one deploys to raise one's awareness, the most obvious elements to tackle are issues of veracity. Many see adherence to truth as one of the fundamental pre-requisites for spiritual development. Surely, self-deception is a sign of low or selective awareness. Though self-deception seems to be a strength for those who resort to it, it will ever be an impediment to higher awareness.

[FairfieldLife] New Rasayana for the Brahmasthan of America
Wasn't coherence and superradiance from FF supposed to prevent this kind of thing? Maybe the coherence stops at the town line? In any event I'm sure we'll see this in the next study. sigh> x-tad-bigger Kids suffer from parents' meth addiction/x-tad-biggerx-tad-bigger /x-tad-biggerBy DAVID CRARY AP National Writer OTTUMWA, Iowa (AP) -- Jittery babies, mistreated toddlers, strung-out mothers: Cheryll Jones' pediatric nursing practice is far from what it was when she started out 30 years ago - long before methamphetamine invaded this riverside Corn Belt town. If anybody told me my primary caseload would be kids exposed to illicit drugs, I'd have said they were crazy, said Jones, who now runs a local task force helping the most helpless victims of the nation's meth epidemic - small children whose parents make and use the highly addictive drug. The scars are inflicted in myriad ways: Exposure to the drug in the womb, contamination from toxic chemicals used in home-based meth manufacture, explosions and fires, long-term neglect from parents obsessed with their drug habits, physical abuse and sexual abuse. Many of the meth-lab homes are filthy, often strewn with drug paraphernalia and pornography; meth-making chemicals have been found in diaper bags and toy chests. I've been in homes where you'd find jars of meth oil in the refrigerator, but no milk, no bread for the kids, said Marvin Van Haaften, a former country sheriff who is now Iowa's drug policy coordinator. The meth epidemic took root on the West Coast, and is now worsening in many big cities nationwide. But nowhere is its heartbreaking toll on young children more evident than in the towns and small cities of America's heartland - notably Iowa, Missouri, Tennessee, Arkansas, Oklahoma, Kentucky and Indiana. inline: spacer.gifAdvertisement inline: spacer.gifinline: image.tiff inline: spacer.gifinline: spacer.gifNationally, authorities have dismantled more than 50,000 clandestine meth labs since 2001, including some 4,000 in Iowa. Roughly 30 percent were mom and pop labs in homes where children live. Thousands of children across the country have been taken away from their meth-abusing parents in recent years, placed with relatives or shifted into already overloaded foster care systems. Scores have been injured, a dozen or more killed; thousands have been born with traces of meth in their bodies. Dr. Rizwan Shah, a pediatrician at Blank Children's Hospital in Des Moines, encountered her first meth-exposed child in 1993 and has studied more than 500 of them since, becoming a respected expert on the phenomenon. She stresses that the prognosis for meth-exposed kids varies widely, and strives to prevent them from being stereotyped. Some suffer serious brain damage and others experience long-lasting development problems, while many will grow into adults without serious health consequences, she said. inline: spacer.gifLatest Health News x-tad-smallerSpring allergies hitting with a vengeance/x-tad-smaller x-tad-smallerStudy: Pneumonia vaccine could save lives/x-tad-smaller x-tad-smallerProstate cancer research and advocacy lag/x-tad-smaller x-tad-smallerDocs say Schiavo videotapes can mislead/x-tad-smaller x-tad-smallerNorth Korea reports outbreak of bird flu/x-tad-smaller inline: spacer.gifinline: spacer.gifBut what's beyond doubt, Shah says, is that pregnant women using meth are harming their babies. The brain gets hijacked by the drug, she said, describing patterns of overstimulation and disrupted sleep cycles among infants, as well as hyperactivity and attention-deficit disorder among meth-exposed school children. One 2-year-old boy Shah treats must be fed through a tube to his stomach because meth exposure left him unable to swallow properly. The mothers Shah meets often evoke meth's powerful lure - an initial burst of energy, a sudden and welcome ability to lose weight. Some of these women are trying to be good mothers, she added. But when you're high on meth, you don't take of yourself or your family. The older kids are parenting the younger ones and also parenting the parent. They lose their childhood to become caretakers. Ottumwa, a meatpacking and slaughterhouse town of 25,000 in southeast Iowa, has become a focal point of the state's efforts to aid meth-affected children, both because of the steady caseload at Cheryll Jones' clinic and because it is home to the country's first Moms Off Meth group - a self-help program for mothers trying to confront their addiction and reorder their lives. Sue Armstrong's children were ages 9, 4 and 3 when she started heavy meth use seven years ago. It made me feel able to do everything, she said. Then it stopped working, but I kept using it to cover up the shame I felt. Armstrong's children were placed with relatives for 18 months. Now she has them back after kicking her habit and getting a job at a battered women's shelter. Kris Salisbury, another Moms Off Meth participant, had a 2-year-old

But of course here it means the Heavenly World and not simply the sky filled with stars. Thus the basic intention in meditative practices is to REACH the starry heavens within the mind and which requires Opening Up the metaphysical eyes so that a darsana of such a world can be gained and the soul made to LIVE there continuously. Now it may be possible that this requires intense mental concentration and for which purpose the control of the breathing processes become also important. Thus we have the emergence of TaaraNai as a kind of breathing as a secondary meaning and which we find in many of the treatises on Yoga. The original meaning however is : meditative practices where the soul, the Aathmana, is freed from mundane and earthly and gets lodged

Reminds me of the following quote from Guru Dev: To be born a human is more fortunate than to be born a deva. Taking birth as a deva is considered comparable to taking birth as any other life form. Birth as a god is attained by those who perform certain sacrifices and karma, etc. associated with divinity, with the intention to enjoy divine pleasures. The minds of the devatas wander incessantly because of the abundance of enjoyable things in the heavenly realms, and hence they cannot perform purushartha [actions consistent with the goals of human life and evolution]. For this reason, the human birth is considered superior, because here, by doing as much purushartha as possible, one can eventually become one with God. A human being is like a lump of pure gold, whereas gods are like pieces of fine jewelry. Having been perfected as jewelry, their progression is complete, and they cannot be further improved. On the other hand, gold which has not yet been crafted by the jeweler is completely unrestricted in its potential. Hence the birth of a human being is said to be the very best birth for action. Having attained this birth, one should not act carelessly, but should conscientiously perform the best purushartha. Fulfilling one's own dharma while keeping faith in Paramatma is the greatest purushartha. Strive to become one with God in this lifetime. Have firm faith in the Vedas and shastras and keep the company of those wise people who also have faith in them.

In response to the article: Knowledge is different in different states of consciousness. The dharma of one state is not the dharma of another. If there's an experiential/phenomenological ego, then you better have a technique/teaching that works directly with the ego to transcend the limitations of the ego. For example, TM. You think the mantra. The problem with these types of articles is that it can lead to people with an ego doing absolutely nothing because they conceptually understand there is no ego. But this is not their direct experience.

What is really baffling about life is that sometimes, despite all our confusion, we can also be really wise!

In any event I'm sure we'll see this in the next "study". sighKids suffer from parents' meth addiction By DAVID CRARYAP National WriterOTTUMWA, Iowa (AP) -- Jittery babies, mistreated toddlers, strung-out mothers: Cheryll Jones' pediatric nursing practice is far from what it was when she started out 30 years ago - long before methamphetamine invaded this riverside Corn Belt town. "If anybody told me my primary caseload would be kids exposed to illicit drugs, I'd have said they were crazy," said Jones, who now runs a local task force helping the most helpless victims of the nation's meth epidemic - small children whose parents make and use the highly addictive drug.The scars are inflicted in myriad ways: Exposure to the drug in the womb, contamination from toxic chemicals used in home-based meth manufacture, explosions and fires, long-term neglect from parents obsessed with their drug habits, physical abuse and sexual abuse. Many of the meth-lab homes are filthy, often strewn with drug paraphernalia and pornography; meth-making chemicals have been found in diaper bags and toy chests."I've been in homes where you'd find jars of meth oil in the refrigerator, but no milk, no bread for the kids," said Marvin Van Haaften, a former country sheriff who is now Iowa's drug policy coordinator.The meth epidemic took root on the West Coast, and is now worsening in many big cities nationwide. But nowhere is its heartbreaking toll on young children more evident than in the towns and small cities of America's heartland - notably Iowa, Missouri, Tennessee, Arkansas, Oklahoma, Kentucky and Indiana. Advertisement Nationally, authorities have dismantled more than 50,000 clandestine meth labs since 2001, including some 4,000 in Iowa. Roughly 30 percent were "mom and pop" labs in homes where children live.Thousands of children across the country have been taken away from their meth-abusing parents in recent years, placed with relatives or shifted into already overloaded foster care systems. Scores have been injured, a dozen or more killed; thousands have been born with traces of meth in their bodies.Dr. Rizwan Shah, a pediatrician at Blank Children's Hospital in Des Moines, encountered her first meth-exposed child in 1993 and has studied more than 500 of them since, becoming a respected expert on the phenomenon.She stresses that the prognosis for meth-exposed kids varies widely, and strives to prevent them from being stereotyped. Some suffer serious brain damage and others experience long-lasting development problems, while many will grow into adults without serious health consequences, she said. Latest Health NewsSpring allergies hitting with a vengeanceStudy: Pneumonia vaccine could save livesProstate cancer research and advocacy lagDocs say Schiavo videotapes can misleadNorth Korea reports outbreak of bird flu But what's beyond doubt, Shah says, is that pregnant women using meth are harming their babies."The brain gets hijacked by the drug," she said, describing patterns of overstimulation and disrupted sleep cycles among infants, as well as hyperactivity and attention-deficit disorder among meth-exposed school children.One 2-year-old boy Shah treats must be fed through a tube to his stomach because meth exposure left him unable to swallow properly.The mothers Shah meets often evoke meth's powerful lure - an initial burst of energy, a sudden and welcome ability to lose weight."Some of these women are trying to be good mothers," she added.

[FairfieldLife] Re: Deceiving ourselves
By whatever method one deploys to raise one's awareness, the most obvious elements to tackle are issues of veracity. Many see adherence to truth as one of the fundamental pre-requisites for spiritual development. Surely, self-deception is a sign of low or selective awareness. Though self-deception seems to be a strength for those who resort to it, it will ever be an impediment to higher awareness. Truthful... to a point. How does one adhere to something as malleable as truth? It being a pre-request for anything with the vagaries of enlightenment seems a riddle of the kind not found outside early Celtic mythology. An acquaintance who assisted Joseph Campbell recalls Campbell saying the ability to hold a secret as a good indication that one was ready for spiritual enlightenment. Yeats suggested be secret and exalt, for of all things known that is most difficult.

[FairfieldLife] Original Veda
Essensing the Vedism of Sambantar The study of Sambantarx-tad-bigger/x-tad-biggers Patikam on CeGkaaddaGkudi, which mentions personal observations on the way the Vedas were used among the Tamils at that time (6x-tad-smallerth/x-tad-smaller-7x-tad-smallerth/x-tad-smaller cent AD) gives a picture of Vedism vastly different from the Vedocentric Brahmanism with its evil VarNasrama Dharma(VD) that seem to NOT to figure in the Vedas themselves. It appears that sometime later there were a group of Hindu-s who isolated Sanskrit language and Vedas and created VD and in which they placed themselves at the top and fooled the world by claiming that they were dwijas by virtue of birth alone and with that precipitating a cultural calamity that perhaps gave rise to the flourish of Jainism and Buddhism that were strongly opposed to VD. However in the Tamil country it appears the pristine conditions of Vedas and the way they were understood were retained only to fall in subsequent times and with which even the very ancient Vedism of the Tamils declined. The essences of this Patikam that allows us to recover this original uncorrupted Vedism can be seen as follows: 1. The Vedism of Tamils was part of the general Agamism and which is the basic metaphysical insight that governs the ancient Nubian- Kemetian-Sumerian-Dravidian culture as exemplified by the pyramids and pyramidal temples. It is essentially a MOVEMENT, a metaphysical odyssey where the human soul TRAVELS and climbs up step by step towards the metaphysical peak and attain Moksa. In this and on way there can be various kinds scriptural and architectural productions but which are NOT absolutely authoritative. Such productions are what the soul has to study , understand them and pass over to something higher. Man should not allow himself to become fixated as it has happened within the deviant Vedic traditions - FIXATIONS to SK language and the Vedas where it is said only the Vedas contain the Brahmanjaanam that would dispel the Myttai, all the worldly knowledge. The whole of this Vedic-Vedantic tradition has brainwashed not only the bulk of Brahmans but also many others so that they cannot give any REASONS for their claims. Sambantar does not go along with it- for along with the Vedas he also places his own hymns as efficacious is purifying the soul , This understanding runs through the whole gamut of Dravidian scriptural tradition right from Sumerian times where hymn singing is part of the CLIMB towards the metaphysical heights and a process that will repeat itself continuously as is the case with the Tamil scriptural tradition where no single scripture has been held up as the Word of God and hence the Absolutely authoritative. 2, This brings us to the essence of Agamism viz. understanding metaphysical excursions as belonging to Hermeneutic Sciences of the most fundamental kind. It is scientific in sense that what conditions the whole movement is TRUTH and every scriptural and architectural monument as embodiments of such truths discovered in the way. There asat-truths and sat-truths where while the asat-truths are embodied as Texts, scriptures or temple architecture and so forth, the Sat-Truth is trans-textual and enjoyed only in Deep Silence. People involved in such metaphysical enterprises were called AntaNar in the Tamil country and at the time of Sambantar and earlier; they were Cen Tamizar, chaste Tamils and not at all the Sanskriticized Brahmins who isolated themselves from the general public as special kind of individuals. They were not only naan maRaiyoor, well versed in the Vedas but also pan maRaiyoor, well versed in all the scriptures and hence OPEN to learn truths no matter from where it came . The Brahmin community with a separate identity should have been a later development quite antithetical to the earlier non-caste sense of AntaNar. This means not only the great CaGkam antaNars like Kapilar ParaNar and so forth but also the Buddhist logicians like Dharmakirti Dignata Dharmapala and so forth were chaste Tamils but perhaps antaNars in the sense of great scholars or philosophers 3. Now it also appears that VeeLvi and Veda Recital were PUBLIC events and which were celebrated as part of Temple rituals. The general public was NOT excluded from participation in these VeeLvi-s and Vedic recitations. This also means that perhaps Vedic studies were accessible to all who were keen on it and not at all hoarded as exclusive privileges of the Brahmins and higher castes as it is made out to be in the Dharma Sastras. The right to learn Vedas and be proficient in them was NOT a caste constituting identity among the Tamils in ancient times and hence when we note someone as a Vedists we cannot jump to the conclusion that he was a Brahmin in the current sense of the word. When any one can learn and be proficient in the Vedas, it is clear that no caste identities can be inferred. The VeeLvi as Temple -centered public ritual also shows that it is linked with

--- In FairfieldLife@yahoogroups.com, Patrick Gillam [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: A while back, Akasha and I kicked around the topic of whether people who have deceived themselves into believing bullshit are actually liars, or if their belief in their position changes the case. Well, yesterday the Boston Globe ran a profile of evolutionary biologist Robert Trivers, whose work addresses self-deception from the point of view of its value in propagating genes. So I thought this post might interest Akasha and L B and maybe a few others. A sidebar worded the thesis this way: Whether it's convincing a predator that you're a leaf or fooling another bird into raising your young, deceit is an evolutionary strategy with a long and innovative history. But as evolution selects for better and better cheaters, it should also select for better and better cheating detectors. For example, Trivers argues, humans might have evolved to detect the sort of nervous tics that betray a lie. But there's a counter-strategy: self-deception. If we don't know we're lying, then we won't act like we're lying, and are more likely to get away with it. More, from the article: The book on deceit and self-deception that he's now starting grows out of a brief but widely cited passage from his introduction to Dawkins's ''The Selfish Gene.'' If deceit, he wrote, ''is fundamental to animal communication, then there must be strong selection to spot deception and this ought, in turn, to select for a degree of self-deception, rendering some facts and motives unconscious so as not to betray- by the subtle signs of self-knowledge-the deception being practiced.'' Well then, this hypothesis may be an explanation of the George W. Bush phenomena. Rick Carlstrom Thus, the idea that the brain evolved to produce ''ever more accurate images of the world must be a very naive view of mental evolution.'' We've evolved, in other words, to delude ourselves so as better to fool others-all in the service of the great game of propagating our genes. Trivers speaks: ''It's a critical topic. How many pretenders to the throne have there been? Marx had a theory of self-deception, Freud thought he had the topic knocked. So there've been a lot of major-domos in there. None of that [expletive] survived the test of time, so it's a huge opportunity.'' The full article is The evolutionary revolutionary: In the 1970s, Robert Trivers wrote a series of papers that transformed evolutionary biology. Then he all but disappeared. Now he's backand ready to rumble.

[FairfieldLife] Re: Essence of Yoga in Bhagavat Gita as Archaic Tamil
Interesting. More proof of the Borg-like assimilation of what is considered true knowledge by the Vedic culture. Just like Maharishi today, saying Lao Tzu's Tao te Ching is one of the books of the Vedic literature . Assimilation. --- In FairfieldLife@yahoogroups.com, Vaj [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: from the Agamic psychology list. Bhagavath Gita as Archaic Tamil: 8-1213- : The Essence of Yoga The recovery of the Tamil Basis of these two slokas and which also shows how deeply it is also SumeroTamil is not only of linguistic importance but also cultural. For in the recovery of the roots, we also retrieve the original meanings of words that have come to prevail with secondary meanings burying the primordial meanings in that process. We have seen how the important psychological terms like manam, aathmana , teekam have been generated and have provided very useful insights into the TRUTHS pertaining to these concepts. Now we shall take up the Meaning of Yoga as such also contained in the retrieved Tamil Basis. So for easy of reference let me reproduce the original and retrieved forms of these two important slokas 8-12 sarva thvaaraaNi samyamya manoo hruti niruthya ca/ muurthn yaathaa-yaatmana: piraaNa-maastitoo yooka-thaaraNaam// 8-13 oomithyeekaaksaram brahma vyaaharan maamanusmaran/ yaa: pirayaati thyajan teeham sa yaati paramaam gatim// Meaning: Anyone who blocks off all the sensory channels and keeps the mind on the heart, raises the breath to the head and establishes his soul in yogic meditation, and keeps on reciting the Logos Om thinking of only Me, and in this if he leaves behind the body and travels further ( in the metaphysical realms) , he will attain the higher kind existence The recovered forms are as follows 8-12 sar-ra tuvaaraNi sam-yam-ya mana-u iruti niruttiya sam/ muurtinee yaata-a aathimana pira-aaNam aastitu-oo ooka taaraNam// Om itu-ee eeka aksaram baramam vaay-a-karan maam unu-suvaran/ Yaa parayaati ti-ejen ti-akam saan aati param aam katim// The Meaning is : Having disciplined all the senses (the orifices of the body) and keeping the mind on the heart , one must keep the soul firmly on whatever icon ( one fancies). Then the soul must be kept in the meditation of the celestial world so that it can be united with the starry heavens. One must recite the Logos Om, keeping the mind fixed to an Icon Form and thinking of Me as a Radiant Reality, meditate upon the sound ( of the mantra). Whoever travels thus in the metaphysical journey becoming forgetful of the body, will attain and become one who lives out the highest form of existence possible Yoga ThaaraNam Here let us take the recovery of `yooka-thaaraNaam' as the Tamil ooka taaraNam where the meanings are quite different. The Ta. ooka also exists as Ta. ooGku, to flourish but actually oo-ku , to rise up to higher reaches and which can be related Su. u or e where Su. u, uu' means the higher as ub-ba ( Ta. uppar, umpar etc) . The `thaaraNam' is Ta. taaraNam, tiraNam and which is related Su. ti-ra-na, the starry heavens. Su, dar-ra and Ta. taarakai may mean `spotted' and where the `spots' in the sky are stars. But of course here it means the Heavenly World and not simply the sky filled with stars. Thus the basic intention in meditative practices is to REACH the starry heavens within the mind and which requires Opening Up the metaphysical eyes so that a darsana of such a world can be gained and the soul made to LIVE there continuously. Now it may be possible that this requires intense mental concentration and for which purpose the control of the breathing processes become also important. Thus we have the emergence of TaaraNai as a kind of breathing as a secondary meaning and which we find in many of the treatises on Yoga. The original meaning however is : meditative practices where the soul, the Aathmana, is freed from mundane and earthly and gets lodged in the metaphysical realms of the gods Icon Thinking and Genuine Pilgrimage Now this makes the following more intelligible: muurtinee yaata-a aathimana pira-aaNam aastitu-oo The Muurti is the Icon , a presentational form of BEING that illuminates the mind and not the `head' as interpreted above. Even now the word `muurtti' is used in the sense of Icon and where the root is Su, muru and Ta. muru ; to brighten up, illuminate etc as in muru- ka. The phrase `muurttinee yaata-a' means whatever icon and which shows that there was an OPENNES with regard to Icon Worship and contemplation. B.G did not focus only on the meditation of VishNu to the exclusion of other deities. There is recognition of the fact that different individuals may feel attracted to different icons and that all such icons are quite effective in their own way. Now what is important is

[FairfieldLife] Re: Deceiving ourselves
Drake Bennett on the work of Robert Trivers: self-deception. If we don't know we're lying, then we won't act like we're lying, and are more likely to get away with it. Rick Carlstrom wrote: Well then, this hypothesis may be an explanation of the George W. Bush phenomena. Yes, the GWB phenomenon was what sparked my original exchange with Akasha. It's fascinating to see it at work in politics. However, I certainly don't think self-deception is limited to politicians. It appears to be very relevant in the TMO, for instance. And then we get into the whole how do I know what I know? epistemological go-round that has engaged so much of my time at Fairfield Life. Self-deception is an interesting topic as it relates to ideologies. But some people apply it to the larger subject of enlightenment as a whole. Dana Sawyer, who doesn't post here directly but is heard from via Rick Archer, believes that people who say they're enlightened are simply deceiving themselves. As evidence for this position, he cites the utter disagreement about what enlightenment is like from culture to culture. One would think that enlightenment, an ultimate state of self-evident reality, would be described in similar ways across histories and cultures. But no, says Sawyer: all the accounts seem to echo what the culture says they *should* sound like, and those accounts often take polar opposite positions. (The Hindus describe it as fullness, for instance, but the Buddhists describe it as emptiness.) I'm not saying I agree with Dana, and I suppose it's a cheap shot to post his notions here without a knowledgeable explanation and defense. I'm merely pointing out that the topic of self-deception may interest some of the philosophers around here, and Robert Trivers throws another log on the fire. - Patrick Gillam To subscribe, send a message to: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Or go to: http://groups.yahoo.com/group/FairfieldLife/ and click 'Join This Group!'

You see more to it and it rings as truth, I'm not sure I fully understand the connections you make to lokas (what is it?) or more important what one needs to learn from it and how not to be stuck in ones own movie that repeats itself. ( I practice TM and Sidhis many years but didn't learn the philosophy behind it or behind the experiences, everything in TMO seems to be just unstressing... ;0 ) I had this on my office computer; sorry for the delay: This illusory sundering of the continuum of plenitude that is the single nature of all entities is a function of the delusory valuation-absolutization of thought. This delusory valuation or absolutizationwhich is inherent to avidya or marigpais the result of an activity of the organism that endows the contents of thought with illusory value and illusory truth and importance: a vibratory activity that seems to emanate from, or to be concentrated in, the center of the chest at the level of the heart, charges our thoughts with apparent value, truth and importance, even though in themselves these have neither value nor nonvalue, neither truth nor nontruth, neither importance nor nonimportance. Later on we will see that the inner Tantras, and in particular the Atiyoga, divides thoughts into three main types: coarse or discursive, subtle or intuitive, and super-subtle. Our feeling of lack results from the delusory valuation or absolutization of the super-subtle thought-structure known as the threefold projection, which consists in the conception that there is an experience (or action, etc.), an experiencer (or agent, etc.) and something experienced (or acted on, etc.), and which involves a directional structuring of experience. When the threefold projection is delusorily valued / absolutized, the illusory, delusive subject-object dichotomy arises, veiling the indivisibility of the Base or zhi as the latter seems to suffer a cleavage and therefore totality seems to be disrupted, and thus giving rise to the subjects feeling of lack-of-completeness, which is the core of duhkhathat is, of the First Noble Truth. In fact, once there arises the illusory mental subject that experiences itself as intrinsically separate from the rest of the continuum that the single nature of all entities is, that subject experiences the lack of the plentitude and completeness that characterizes this continuum. Though the teachings distinguish between the mind (Skt., chitta; Tib., sem), which is defined as consciousness or awareness of a form, and a series of mental factors or mental events (Skt., chaitasika; Tib., semjung) involved in the cognition of that form, both are indivisible aspects of the cognitive apparatus of deluded beings. In regard to the former, the Abhidharmakosha declares, consciousness is a selecting awareness, and also, perception (involves) a process of singling out. This refers to the occurrences that take place immediately after consciousness comes to experience itself as separate from the rest of the continuum that the single nature of all entities is: upon facing the continuum of what appears as object, another apparent split takes place in our experience, whereby the continuum of what appears as object is divided into figure and ground. Our attention circumscribes itself to one segment of the sensory field that we find interesting among those that conserve their configuration and that we are used to associate with one of our concepts, singling it out as figure and taking it as object, and leaves the rest of the field sunk in a penumbra of consciousness, so that it becomes background. It is at this stage that the mental factor or mental event called recognition enters into play, causing us to understand the segment that was singled out in terms of the corresponding concept. (The tendency to single out, within the ever-changing totality of sense-data, segments of this totality that maintain a certain continuity of pattern, is the function of a pre-conceptual interest, which is the precondition for the subsequent application of the concepts that will take part in the recognition of objects. Hence, it is clear that perception is an active process driven by impulses and concepts in our own psyche rather than consisting in the passive reception of data [as both Aristotle and Lenin, among other Western thinkers, wrongly believed].) Though the continuum of what appears as object was split by our own mental functions, we are under the illusion that this split is inherent to a given reality that we take to be self-existent and objective, and thus we think that the figure

Vaj, it appears we are interpreting this text differently. First if this is referring to tha nakshatra Pushya, encompases the same sign(s) year to year: Pushya is in 3.20-16.40 Cancer. If the text literally means enter -- as in the same day -- then this a much rarer event than my adjacent post indicates. If it means having entered as in all three are in pushya at same time, then it happens every 54-108 years. I don't have my jyotish software up and running.

Suite 314 . 1200 16th Street NW, Washington, DC 20036 *Absolutely marvelous.* --Maharishi, on seeing the glorious brochure showcasing the newly completely campus for 500 Vedic Scholars in Maharishi Vedic City in December 2005. http://vedicscholars.globalcountryofworldpeace.org/index.html http://vedicscholars.globalcountryofworldpeace.org/03.html http://vedicscholars.globalcountryofworldpeace.org/13.html Dear Vedic Scholar Campus Donor, When Raja Wynne asked a few months ago if the Vedic Scholars could join us in Maharishi Vedic City, Maharishi said we should wait until concerns of the parents in India lessened about the perils of international travel, especially to America. Now, today, we have some very exciting news to report: Raja Wynne was able to raise the question to Maharishi: Had the feelings changed sufficiently that we could begin to plan for the Vedic Scholars to come? Maharishi's response was extremely heartening. He said, Yagyas have now begun in India, and as sattwa grows over the next two to three months, we could then think of the Vedic Scholars coming to America. And when Raja Wynne asked, for the sake of confirmation, if the plan for the Vedic campus continues to be as it has always been--a home for 500 Vedic Scholars--Maharishi confirmed, Yes, the plan is as it has always been. Specifically, Guru Purnima will come in two or three months, a time which Maharishi said will mark the beginning of the descent of /Sat Yuga/--the age of positivity--and the end of /Kali Yuga/, the age of negativity. That means following the Guru Purnima celebrations may be the ideal time for the Vedic Scholars to come. We wanted to share this wonderful news and thank you again for your dedication to bringing the Vedic Scholars to Maharishi Vedic City. These 500 Vedic Scholars are only the beginning. Peace Palaces will soon be built throughout the country, and in every location there will be a large Celebration Ground for Vedic Scholars to perform Vedic recitations thee times a day. But the Vedic Scholar campus in Maharishi Vedic City will be the core from where the influence of sattwa will spread throughout America. Our team in Maharishi Vedic City has worked through the winter and now in the spring to complete every detail of the campus--final grading and seeding, fencing and porches, trees, flags and playing fields which are so important for the Vedic Scholars' enjoyment. Only one major facility on the Vedic Scholar campus still needs to be built: the kitchen. If we start immediately we can have the kitchen up and running by Guru Purnima--in time for the Vedic Scholars' arrival. We have done very well in building the campus economically and staying on budget. The total cost of the campus, including the kitchen, will be $4.5 million for over 100,000 square feet of space. This is only $9,000 per Vedic Scholar for everything each Scholar needs--housing, classrooms, dining, flying, study halls, playing fields, etc. The construction cost of dormitories alone at other universities is $70,000 per student. Fortunately, 50% of the cost of the campus is now paid. The rest has been bridge-financed through a short-term bond. We believe that once the campus is in use we will be able to refinance the bond with a traditional, long-term low-interest bank loan. To complete everything as planned, your support is very much needed! Especially: 1. If you have been contributing regularly to the Pandit project, your continued support is vitally needed now. 2. If you pledged to support the Vedic Scholars upon their arrival, please be prepared to give that support as soon as we receive word that they are coming. We will need a rapid influx of revenues to cover their airfare. 3. Finally, we need to immediately raise an additional $500,000 in donations to build the kitchen. (There is no bank financing available at this time.) It is obviously essential that we be able to feed the Vedic Scholars when they arrive! A new time is

Is your date based on Moon, Sun, and Jupiter entering Puhsya on same day -- having all three been in Punarvasu the prior day ? No. I am trying to calculate it just with them in Pushya, near the trad. date of 2442 CE. Are you using Goravani? Are you using the calculator? I also have Parasara's Light, but not here. I use Goravani -- but don't have it currently loaded. I am curious how you are calculating it. I am just envisioning the cycles. Jupiter travels and then repeats the zodiac every 12 years. There are 27 Nakshatras. Thus Jupiter is on average in each Nakshatra for .444 years each 12 year cycle, or for 5.33 month. And thus Jupiter is in Pushya (cancer, 3.20 for 5.33 for 5.33 months every 12 years. So lets imagine a time when Sun, Moon and Jupiter are all in pushya, with Jupiter and sun just entering it. 12 years later, Jupiter returns to the same spot in pushya and remains in pushya for 5.33 months. Being exactly 12 years later, the sun is in the same spot, and will be in pushya for 13 and 1/3 days. This is just less than 1/2 a lunar cycle of 28 days. That means that the moon will appear in Pushya almost every two cycles of Jupiter, when Jupiter and Sun are there together. But sometimes it will take three jupiter cycles for the moon to show up. Now lets refine it. Ok so the actual cycle of Jupiter is 11.86 years. So every 12 years, just as Sun enters pushya, jupiter will have moved a bit ahead of where it was last time, by 2% of one degree or so. And there are leap years. And Jupiter will go retrograde periodically. So while the pattern is fairly stable, and with the three grahas in pusya every 2-3 cycles of Jupiter (24-36 years) (more often every 2 than 3), there will be some times when it takes 4, sometimes, rarely, it may only take one cycle. My original quick head calc was wrong -- saying it was low multipls of every 27 years. Its actually low multiples of every 12 years. But if the text means entry into pushya on the same day, then as i said thats a much more rare event.

Though self-deception seems to be a strength for those who resort to it, it will ever be an impediment to higher awareness. * Although there may be prerequisites to spiritual development for those who have chosen a path reliant on intellect or emotion, (MMY lists 5 paths to God realization in his Science of Being and Art of Living, saying that TM is a mechanical technique) there are no prerequisites to spiritual development for one who has chosen the mechanical path to realization, TM -- which is why TM is so suitable for enlightening a world where nearly everybody is a lowlife unsuited for spiritual development by means of purity of intellect or emotion. In the practice of TM, one transcends limitation , which is where all falsity resides, and gains unlimited awareness, which is the truth about everybody's nature. Repetition of this mechanical process automatically leads to a stable state, Cosmic Consciousness, in which one never loses the truth of one's unlimited nature of bliss consciousness.

Is your date based on Moon, Sun, and Jupiter entering Puhsya on same day -- having all three been in Punarvasu the prior day ? No. I am trying to calculate it just with them in Pushya, near the trad. date of 2442 CE. Are you using Goravani? Are you using the calculator? I also have Parasara's Light, but not here. I use Goravani -- but don't have it currently loaded. I am curious how you are calculating it. I am just envisioning the cycles. Jupiter travels and then repeats the zodiac every 12 years. There are 27 Nakshatras. Thus Jupiter is on average in each Nakshatra for .444 years each 12 year cycle, or for 5.33 month. And thus Jupiter is in Pushya (cancer, 3.20 for 5.33 for 5.33 months every 12 years. So lets imagine a time when Sun, Moon and Jupiter are all in pushya, with Jupiter and sun just entering it. 12 years later, Jupiter returns to the same spot in pushya and remains in pushya for 5.33 months. Being exactly 12 years later, the sun is in the same spot, and will be in pushya for 13 and 1/3 days. This is just less than 1/2 a lunar cycle of 28 days. That means that the moon will appear in Pushya almost every two cycles of Jupiter, when Jupiter and Sun are there together. But sometimes it will take three jupiter cycles for the moon to show up. Now lets refine it. Ok so the actual cycle of Jupiter is 11.86 years. So every 12 years, just as Sun enters pushya, jupiter will have moved a bit ahead of where it was last time, by 2% of one degree or so. And there are leap years. And Jupiter will go retrograde periodically. So while the pattern is fairly stable, and with the three grahas in pusya every 2-3 cycles of Jupiter (24-36 years) (more often every 2 than 3), there will be some times when it takes 4, sometimes, rarely, it may only take one cycle. My original quick head calc was wrong -- saying it was low multipls of every 27 years. Its actually low multiples of every 12 years. But if the text means entry into pushya on the same day, then as i said thats a much more rare event.

We wanted to share this wonderful news and thank you again for your dedication to bringing the Vedic Scholars to Maharishi Vedic City. These 500 Vedic Scholars are only the beginning. Peace Palaces will soon be built throughout the country, and in every location there will be a large Celebration Ground for Vedic Scholars to perform Vedic recitations thee times a day.

Only one major facility on the Vedic Scholar campus still needs to be built: the kitchen. If we start immediately we can have the kitchen up and running by Guru Purnima--in time for the Vedic Scholars' arrival. We have done very well in building the campus economically and staying on budget. The total cost of the campus, including the kitchen, will be $4.5 million for over 100,000 square feet of space. This is only $9,000 per Vedic Scholar for everything each Scholar needs--housing, classrooms, dining, flying, study halls, playing fields, etc. The construction cost of dormitories alone at other universities is $70,000 per student. Fortunately, 50% of the cost of the campus is now paid. The rest has been bridge-financed through a short-term bond. We believe that once the campus is in use we will be able to refinance the bond with a traditional, long-term low-interest bank loan.

Re: [FairfieldLife] kicharee recipe
from Vaidya Robert Svoboda Khichadi - Split Mung Beans and Rice This preparation, a common staple food for many Indians, is also a purifying, balancing diet suitable for almost everyone. It is ideal for those with poor digestion or assimilation because it is easy to digest and also assists in eliminating toxins from the system. 2 cups rice, preferably Indian basmati rice 1 cup split mung beans (called mung dal in Indian grocery stores) 8 to 12 cups water, depending on how liquid you want the final product to be 2 Tbsp. ghee (clarified butter) 1 tsp. ground cumin 1 scant tsp. ground coriander seed 1/4 to 1/2 tsp. turmeric powder 3 to 5 whole cardamom pods 1 to 2 tsp. of powdered ginger pinch salt or powdered kelp pinch asafoetida powder If you are unable to locate an Indian grocery store you can substitute sprouted mung beans for the split variety. Wash off the green seed covers which split when the beans sprout. One part beans to two parts rice is the standard proportion. Those individuals with malfunctioning digestions may choose to reduce the proportion of beans to rice to 1:3, or even less. Those with stronger digestions may increase the proportion to 1:1 if they so desire. Wash the beans and rice and soak them separately in an excess of water for at least an hour. Thereafter discard the soak water, mix the beans and rice together and rinse them with fresh water. Heat gently 2 Tbsp. of ghee. While heating, add the cumin, coriander, turmeric and asafoetida. Saute these spices lightly in the ghee, until they are just browned but before they blacken, and add the mung beans and rice, stirring vigorously for about a minute so that some of the spices will be absorbed. Then add water, ginger, cardamom and salt or kelp, bring to a slow boil, cover, and cook until the individual grains are completely soft. Serve with yogurt for V types and extra ghee for P people. K individuals should use more spices and less water. This amount will serve five or six people. As the digestion improves the amount of spices may be increased, and onion, garlic, daikon radish and other rott vegetables may be added to the mixture before cooking begins.

So every 12 years, just as Sun enters pushya, jupiter will have moved a bit ahead of where it was last time, by 2% of one degree or so. And there are leap years. And Jupiter will go retrograde periodically. So while the pattern is fairly stable, and with the three grahas in pusya every 2-3 cycles of Jupiter (24-36 years) (more often every 2 than 3), there will be some times when it takes 4, sometimes, rarely, it may only take one cycle. My original quick head calc was wrong -- saying it was low multipls of every 27 years. Its actually low multiples of every 12 years. But if the text means entry into pushya on the same day, then as i said thats a much more rare event.

As I said some days back, there are natural yuga cycles and then there are artificial yugas that can be overlaid upon them through yagya.

MMY's answer was that a bubble of Sat Yuga some ten thousand years long would be created in Kali yuga. Funny how the TMO'ers refer to Sat Yuga when throughout Puranic literature Krita Yuga is always the name. How so?

[FairfieldLife] Re: $4,000 per month as a full-time teacher of TM
There's a precedent for this in the MVU Directors some years back, also a salaried position that fizzled eventually. The directors had to endure an insane agenda of daily reports on countless things to various offices that had conflicting requirements. The salary became more and more tied to successful completion of all these impossible dictums. It was, in the end, nightmarish. --- In FairfieldLife@yahoogroups.com, Rick Archer [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: on 3/28/05 4:27 PM, rudra_joe at [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: 4,000 bucks a month rocks peeps.

Re: [FairfieldLife] Re: Why the happy talk about the pundits in Vedic City
What is really upsetting to me is when the TMO was first "bringing out the knowledge of Ayurved", one of the carrots was that you could go into poor areas, relieve suffering and create health because it was so inexpensive. Relieve the suffering of the poor. I was so happy to hear that. I spend a lot of time around poor people who suffer deeply. So knowing what I know and knowing how it was all turned into a yuppie money-making scheme makes me want to cry.Who knows, maybe they are going into the black hole of Calcutta and helping relieve suffering--but I'm sure we would have heard if that was ever the case.-Ah Vaj, I just had to quit because my boss told me I had to be a whip cracker on a nigger. I was insulted that he had made the mistake to think I was his voice and not actually his chef. What a fucking dork. You just don't get wise bosses. Sometimes you just have to say to them like I said, this job is boring, it's not the best I ever had, and I don't need it. A few years back I had stopped TM since doing a month CCP in 92. Then I decided I wanted to do something for all the poor people right then in New Orleans. I called the TM center and asked them for flyers and to see hw I could help the inner city. I had grand notions of passing out flyers in the projects and so on, and then guess what $2,500 bucks raise in price. I was like, no fucking way! then every other hare brained scheme ever. Talk about not appreciating the hired help. What a dork. Not the best religion I ever had, it's boring (no bhakti) and I don't need it.
