Re: [FairfieldLife] My Dinner with Dr. Mahapatra
Let me get this right: MMY is a diabetic (very treatable by Ayurveda BTW) with coronary artery disease, status post myocardial infarction, and a very paranoid megalomaniac after world power who steals money from the dying and dead? Oh yeah he also uses western medicine while telling others to avoid it. Now, please correct me if I am wrong here, I thought enlightened physiology meant perfect health? Isn't CAD a stress related disease? Repeated studies independent of the TMO has shown that a radical vegetarian diet and meditation, properly done, reverses CAD. What's wrong with this picture?

Patra was trained as an Oncologist and saw people he knew would die. M would promise them healing, then they would die. M would send out his people to collect the huge bills from the bereaved families after the people had died. He said he found that very upsetting. Patra said when he first started seeing M, M wanted him to work for the movement. He told Patra to not go back to hospitals anymore. Patra was about to get married and go into practice, but because of what M said he didn't. M told him the movement would support him and have a bank account he could draw on.

Re: [FairfieldLife] Re: My Dinner with Dr. Mahapatra
1. How one who is U.C can not be realistic? Because of personality, a dreamer and unrealistic personality will not become realistic and sensible through consciousness and physiological functioning. They will be very 'normal' but we all know what that means now. Basically nothing. But basically a sense of good humor and health. As said, a demon who is in unity will be a very effective demon. One might say, but isn't someone in unity really deserving of unity through good deeds and so on. I say no, that a person in unity is merely someone who made the connection, and nothing more. Being in unity doesn't make soup out of soap. Moreover, liberation is causeless or it will have a beginning and end. One is already liberated, but merely caught in the sheet and too lazy to struggle to get out of bed. Liberation takes one by force or it doesn't. A big problem in enlightenment is not acting from the POV of the Absolute with it's opulent nature of wisdom and compassion, but again falling into the energetic realm of thought and karma which is the realm of the Devas. the Devas fight wars constantly so to act on behalf of a Deva is to throw away the human condition with it's divinity which transcends all. Too many yajnas make one crazy. Too much association with Devas makes one very dualistic. One needs always to remember the source course and goal as being of the one flavor of the Absolute, and not get caught up. MMY got caught up. It's obvious, as obvious as spoiled agar. Undoing the effects of karmic overreaching is the act of the wise, not rebuilding the entire world. 2. On what basis one who has fragmented reality decide if something is "realistic"? On the basis of sheer fact of existance as already being unity regardless of anything. You're in unity whether you like it or not, or realize it or not. And upon realization, one still has to put out the garbage on thursday because it will stink by friday. One who is in unity realizes that all are in unity and that as there is one unity so also everyone is important, as important as one's own mother. 3. Where is my darn coffee? Make it and wake up! 4. How can gurus act like total dipshits. Lack of wisdom and integrity, or knowledge. --- In FairfieldLife@yahoogroups.com, "rudra_joe" [EMAIL PROTECTED]... wrote: The obvious conclusion is that MMY is a dreamer, but not very realiztic. - Original Message - From: Vaj To: FairfieldLife@yahoogroups.com Sent: Tuesday, April 12, 2005 6:32 AM Subject: Re: [FairfieldLife] My Dinner with Dr. Mahapatra Let me get this right: MMY is a diabetic (very treatable by Ayurveda BTW) with coronary artery disease, status post myocardial infarction, and a very paranoid megalomaniac after world power who steals money from the dying and dead?

His English was a bit hard to understand so I'll do my best to relay some of the interesting things he said. After 91, (I'm not sure of exact dates) M had him as one of the people in charge of a group of 6000 boys (M calls them pundits...). At some point M's family told M that they didn't like what was going on with the big group (I don't have any details) and M dismantled the whole thing sending all the boys home to all the families consternation. Maha Patra was in the dog house after that, which sounded like about 95 or 96. He said it was very uncomfortable dealing with all the boys families during that time. Patra said in 87 he was called to M's side in Noida, India and M was rolling on the ground, screaming with the pain. He had pancreitis (sorry for spelling). Patra put him on a pain killer and a sedative. M eventually went to England for 6 months or so for treatment for this. M is diabetic and his family has a history of diabetes. I wonder if his high sugar intake had anything to do with it? When in England everything was kept very secret. When some reporters heard he was at a particular hotel, they would rapidly disappear to another location. During that time M had his heart attack. I didn't get much of the details. M didn't have heart surgery but he did have angeoplasty at a hospital in Holland. M used western drugs and western hospitals while promoting Ayurveda as the be all and end all.

A noble aspiration, but one which will relegate large portions of yourSelf to the dustbin.Enlightened-Mind possesses no real Self-Nature, so this is fine, that's where notion of permanent Self are ultimately bound.Moreover, the nature of the Absolute itself is compassion and wisdom. To not have these is to not be awakened. You say, hah! you contradicted yourself! Hahaha, Kirk you suck! You contradicted youself where you said before that even demons could be in unity. But Hahahaha, I say right back, a demon will act from it's level of wisdom and compassion, by killing, enslaving, and expanding your maya, because demons aren't given to great thought, great compassion or great wisdom. Enlightened demons are the worst. Don't get involved with enlightened demons. Jeez, you want a harsh taskmaster? A stupid awakened one still can't write, read, or do math, but they're still awakened. If it wasn't the case then from the start of time people would have had to go first through all of schooling to make sure they were on the level first. But such is obviously not the case. I saw a very awakened slug once eating my San pedro cactus. It was grooving on life. I could see it glow. Awakened but of no great use to me personally. I was very able to cook all sorts of things many times but was pigeonholed into some station or another. Awakening didn't change that. I still had to work say, fry station, or saute, instead of production, or being the chef. Not every awakened person gets the crown, not every awakened person gets acknowlegement, not every awakened person wants the crown or acknoledgement. Yeah, watch your karma. Awakening doesn't change karma, except insofar as it brings wisdom and compassion. So instead of driving 60 in a school zone when in the heady bliss of freedom, and then hitting a school kid, and going to prison where one will be awakened in prison, instead one slows down, because they may hit someone. Foresight, insight, wisdom, compassion, the true path makes use of these and doesn't put it all on autopilot where whatever one does is right. because karmically speaking, it's not!

Re: [FairfieldLife] Re: My Dinner with Dr. Mahapatra
WHOSE Suffering? WHO is suffering?:-)---You keep saying this. I am suffering, always. Always. I go from thing to thing always wanting more. When I'm hungry I feel weak. When I run out of weed my mind gets really pitta and feels like exploding. Like now. No suffering? Good for you. The suffering I feel is the source of my desire for liberation. And always was. The fact of constant change makes all relative solutions invalid. Sure, I absolutely don't suffer, as when I stepped out of time when my father died. But karmically speaking, I have been caught up in suffering since I entered the womb and every day and moment since then. Except when I was fucked up or in samadhi. But my guess is also that if you were you wouldn't be asking vapid questions. If we understand that we are the Absolute then can we understand that someone must cook and someone must wash dishes. Otherwise, no cooking, no eating, much suffering. Heaven on Earth is right now, as I have always maintained, but being relative heaven must also change and so is not a solution to misery. Nonetheless, heaven must be served, how do you take yours? I would be glad to hook it up if I could.

Having been raised with creativeÕs in and around the theater, a disjointed personal life seems rather consistent in the daily habits of unusual people. I watched for years as brilliant minds collapsed once off stage, strangely and profoundly reconstituting once back in character. Just an observation, hearing in advance footsteps of hobgoblins in search of consistency. One effect MMY's behavior has on me is that it forces me to drop all stories or concepts, both good and bad about him. I've had too many amazing experiences around him to dismiss him as a fraud and I certainly can't deny the ridiculous behavior he has exhibited at times over the last several decades. So what is the conclusion? Nothing. Why do we have to have any stories/concepts at all about him? Also most of these stories have absolutely nothing to do with my direct experience.

[FairfieldLife] ULTIMATE FREEDOM: The One reality
From James Braha: Below is the Intro to my new book (5 pages), which is close to being finished. ULTIMATE FREEDOM: The One reality Introduction What you are about to read is the final chapter in my search for liberation. What I mean by liberation is an end to the nagging feeling of separateness from Source (or Essence) that was present since as long as I can remember. And the death of the never ending sense of becoming, as well as the relentless concerns over past and future - death included. After engaging in many spiritual paths for some thirty years, the end finally came through the Hindu teachings of Advaita, also known as non duality. The literal definition of Advaita (classically pronounced ad-veye-ta, sometimes pronounced ad-vey-ta) is not two, a preferable way of describing oneness because oneness implies the possibility of more than one. The term oneness refers to the underlying or essential oneness of all manifestation. Scientifically this oneness can be seen within the fact that all matter can be broken down into sub atomic particles, which is then seen as nothing more than light or emptiness or space. Everything in manifestation is, thus, made up of one, and only one, essence. Within our experience of life, which is tremendously varied and full of differences, there is an integral facet that is almost entirely ignored. And that is the sameness or oneness that is constantly present and makes all experience possible. It is called Presence Awareness and is essentially the present moment - right here right now. It is the right here right now that has always been and will always be. It is the right here right now that you experienced at age five and is with you even as you read this page. It was present at birth, it is present at death. Presence Awareness. Right here right now. Our one constant. In early 2004, I had the great good fortune to pick up a book called What's Wrong With Right Now Unless You Think About it? by an Australian teacher named Sailor Bob Adamson. Bob's search ended in the mid 1970's when he studied with the great Hindu sage Nisargadatta Maharaj. He has been teaching non duality ever since. As fate would have it, Bob and his wife came to America and stayed at our home for five weeks. During that time, he gave many wonderful talks and teachings, most of which are transcribed in this book. For most seekers of enlightenment or liberation, the search is long and arduous with many twists and turns along the way. Finding truth is all the more challenging because there are so many varying viewpoints. People are different genetically, culturally, emotionally, and so on. There are paths for devotional types, intellectual types, mystical types, and so forth. What most paths and religions have in common is that they allow the disciple to seek without ever actually finding. This does not mean such paths are fruitless. It simply means that there is always more to chase and more to seek. There is always a bigger and better experience to be had. There is always a promise of a better future (even though life can only be lived in the present). And there is almost never a point where one stops to say Aha. The goal is reached. I have found. I am complete. There is, of course, the rare case where that occurs, but it is sure to be the exception - not the rule. The few who claim to have found are nearly always the leaders, never the participants. This fact alone should give one pause. In this regard, the teachings of non duality are incredibly unique. They are unique because they leave room only for finding and none for seeking! In Advaita, seeking is patently absurd because it implies a future time of finding. If all that exists is oneness, how can there be a past or future? Past and future are concepts in the mind, while the present moment - right here right now - is all that truly is. If there is an opposite to Advaita, it is the act of seeking! Advaita is based on understanding reality and existence from the broadest possible viewpoint. It is entirely unconcerned with practices, disciplines, rituals, and experiences. Seekers looking for greater self development or for promises of a better future will not find them here. Non duality rejects preferences, and considers no experience, positive or negative, one iota better or worse than another. For seekers who are ripe, non duality brings ending upon ending, until only freedom remains. Once it is recognized that the reference point we live from, the me, is based on nothing more than a collection of thoughts and images, any sense of self importance and individuality ends. Once the definition of reality is seen to be that which never changes, the illusory nature of our apparent creation is exposed. As soon as the essential oneness of existence is understood, the pervasive sense of separation gained in early childhood - when a so called individual identity was created - disappears. Once it is realized that the present moment, right here

It is to say, however, that the finding of one's true nature occurs in a moment of understanding. Well put. Reality, consciousness, has always been everywhere, which is why it is so easy to overlook. Ever tried to see your own eye? Without a mirror :) Nearly half the world accepts the concept of maya - the concept that the world is an illusion. But almost no one lives as if they believe the fact! That's because the world ***feels*** so real. That moment of understanding can help you realize that just because something feels real, doesn't actually make it real.

Re: [FairfieldLife] Re: My Dinner with Dr. Mahapatra
Technically, one beats cream with a beater, or whips it with a whip. Noone makes Ice Cream by stirring it, or it would take forever to make and then people like Maharishi would live longer not pandering to their own death wish being diabetics, and not feel the pressure to make us sell out our friends and families for him, so as to liberate them from the evil clutches of maya. You see. Beating is the key, not stirring. We must beat things for the Maharishis. Stirring just isn't gonna cut it you hear me Rory?I told you you wouldn't make it in the kitchen. But as a customer, well, come back later, the ice cream isn't ready. Ah nevermind, we're shortstaffed. I'll work with you until you can beat it just right;) No I didn't mean it like that, I was just kidding. I mean it. On the other hand we can all just stop and do nothing and let things go to hell. Usually I figured that that's what had happened anyway. And I was just left picking up the pieces. Actually, if we all just did nothing, and let everything take care of itself.

Re: [FairfieldLife] Re: My Dinner with Dr. Mahapatra
u churn butter Ice cream in theoryis a frozen creme anglaise which is a cooked egg yolk and milk product. The creme anglaise is beaten until all the crystals line up and then it becomes creamy, unlike beaten cream or eggs, which reach a peak and then collaspe. Ice cream since it is cooked and ready to be eaten as is, as usually in a sauce, can be taken further, to a pudding stage, as in custard, or more fully whacked until it performs like a maharishi demands, fully beaten and enlightened anglaise. It does reach a pinnacle of perfection that even God can't resist. Yes, even God can't resist ice cream. Tell that to the preacherman.

This wasn't written a year ago by this anonymous persons friend , it was cobbled together from Trancenet material posted no later than Feb 14th, 1997. A site sponsored by Free Christian Software. Dr Mahapatra had a webpage, you can see the google cache of which if you search. (Dr. Gyanendra Mahapatra) --- In FairfieldLife@yahoogroups.com, anonymousff [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: Written by a friend of mine about a year ago after he had dinner with Dr. Mahapatra He says he was M's personal physician from about 87 to 91. His English was a bit hard to understand so I'll do my best to relay some of the interesting things he said. After 91, (I'm not sure of exact dates) M had him as one of the people in charge of a group of 6000 boys (M calls them pundits...). At some point M's family told M that they didn't like what was going on with the big group (I don't have any details) and M dismantled the whole thing sending all the boys home to all the families consternation. Maha Patra was in the dog house after that, which sounded like about 95 or 96. He said it was very uncomfortable dealing with all the boys families during that time. Patra said in 87 he was called to M's side in Noida, India and M was rolling on the ground, screaming with the pain. He had pancreitis (sorry for spelling). Patra put him on a pain killer and a sedative. M eventually went to England for 6 months or so for treatment for this. M is diabetic and his family has a history of diabetes. I wonder if his high sugar intake had anything to do with it? When in England everything was kept very secret. When some reporters heard he was at a particular hotel, they would rapidly disappear to another location. During that time M had his heart attack. I didn't get much of the details. M didn't have heart surgery but he did have angeoplasty at a hospital in Holland. M used western drugs and western hospitals while promoting Ayurveda as the be all and end all. M has good days and bad days and has variety of health problems. He stays out of view on the bad days. Patra says M is a megamaniac after world power, (we're all surprised). He says the only ones M trusts are his family members, who he gives untold millions to. M thinks all Americans are CIA and is really paranoid. M asked him if he could test the blood of M's relatives to see if someone was trying to poison them. He says M's family members are not all good people or ethical people and that they have undue influence on M's decisions. He had not heard any stories of M with women. Patra said he spoke with Deepak, his friend, who told him that all the problems started one time when Deepak had to leave M and M wanted him to not go. Deepak told M that he had speaking engagements for thousands of people all set up and he had to go. M said he heard that Deepak was promoting Deepak and not M. Deepak said he always promoted M. M continued to be more negative and suspicious and things broke down from there. Patra says when anyone gets too popular in the movement or has too much of a following M cans them. Patra said when they had the clinic for the very seriously ill at Noida that M would promise them all healing. With severe cases the Vaijyas would tell M that they could only do so much. Patra was trained as an Oncologist and saw people he knew would die. M would promise them healing, then they would die. M would send out his people to collect the huge bills from the bereaved families after the people had died. He said he found that very upsetting. Patra said when he first started seeing M, M wanted him to work for the movement. He told Patra to not go back to hospitals anymore. Patra was about to get married and go into practice, but because of what M said he didn't. M told him the movement would support him and have a bank account he could draw on. He was to have 2 cooks an 2 secretaries. None of that materialized and he was given no money. Now he is in the US, can't pass the medical exams which he could have passed many years ago, and he is taking business courses. He does yagyas full time for Ralph Taylor, and has a group of 60 boys in India doing yagyas for Ralph.

My TTC (nine weeks in Majorca) was IIRC around $900 and that included airfare from L.A., room and board. I think they could make that price because we lived on Brussel sprouts. Maybe Rudra Joe could make that palatable, but he wasn't in the kitchen (AFAIK).

On Apr 12, 2005, at 2:17 PM, Gregory N Poole wrote: Nearly half the world accepts the concept of maya - the concept that the world is an illusion. But almost no one lives as if they believe the fact! That's because the world ***feels*** so real. That moment of understanding can help you realize that just because something feels real, doesn't actually make it real. And also it is worth pointing out that just because you feel you are in the non-dual state, does not mean you are. Having been around a teacher who transmits the non-dual state I've been lucky to be around many who felt they were in that state and who had gone beyond meditation, etc. Very few are and I see the same pattern around the Neo-Advaita set. The vast majority are not in the non-dual state but are in fact practicing vipasyana (whether they realize it or not). Not that that's a bad thing, but it ain't the non-dual state and it ain't enlightenment. Since vipasyana is seeing things as they really are it can be quite deceiving. Sadly a form of vanity tends to follow the wrong View. What amazed me is that a good teacher can dismantle a students wrong View in about 1 to 3 sentences. Correct View (darshana) is *essential*. I also found some of the articles claims, sadly, quite inaccurate.
