 Dalai Lama Quote of the Week 
		As human beings, we are all the same. So there is no need to build some kind of artificial barrier between us. At least my own experience is that if you have this kind of attitude, there is no barrier. Whatever I feel, I can express; I can call you 'my old friend'. There is nothing to hide, and no need to say things in a way that is not straightforward. So this gives me a kind of space in my mind, with the result that I do not have to be suspicious of others all the time. And this really gives me inner satisfaction, and inner peace.

So I call this feeling a 'genuine realization of the oneness of the whole of humanity'. We are all members of one human family. I think that this understanding is very important, especially now that the world is becoming smaller and smaller. In ancient times, even in a small village, people were able to exist more or less independently. There was not so much need for others' co-operation. These days, the economic structure has completely changed We are heavily dependent on one another, and also as a result of mass communication, the barriers of the past are greatly reduced. Today, because of the complexity of interdependence, every crisis on this planet is essentially related with every other, like a chain reaction. Consequently it is worthwhile taking every crisis as a global one. Here barriers such as 'this nation' or 'that nation' , 'this continent', or 'that continent' are simply obstacles. Therefore today, for the future of the human race, it is more important than ever before that we develop a genuine sense of brotherhood and sisterhood. I usually call this a sense of 'universal responsibility'.

  Dharma Quote of the Week 
		 
		 Being the Mirror
 
When we say that we have knowledge, or that we have discovered our real nature and we are in this nature, that means that we are "being the mirror." You see, "being the mirror" or "looking in the mirror" are two completely different things. If we "are the mirror," then we have no concept of dualistic vision.
 
If a reflection manifests in the mirror, why is it manifesting? There are two reasons. One is because the mirror has the capacity to manifest infinite reflections. This is the mirror's quality. If there is an object in front of the mirror, whose capacity it is to reflect, naturally a reflection will appear in the mirror. Furthermore, the mirror has no idea of checking or accepting the object it is reflecting. The mirror doesn't need any program for that. This is what is called its qualification, or infinite potentiality.
 
In the same way, when we have infinite potentiality, but we are ignorant of our real nature, then we always conceive that "I am here" and "the object is there," "I am looking and seeing an object," and so on. We do not discover that we are like a mirror, and if we never discover this, then of course there is no way that we can function like the mirror. When you discover that you are like the mirror, then there is a possibility that you will be the mirror.
 
When you are the mirror, then you have no problems with reflections--they can be big, small, nice, ugly, any kind. For you, the reflections are only a manifestation of your quality, which is like that of a mirror. When you have no problems with reflections, then you understand self-liberation You are not changing or transforming something. You are only being in your real nature.

Does anybody know of a Sanskrit text that mentions

Thank you! for this amazing post;
I think we may be in 'Dan Ratherville, now'
It's getting mighty interesting.
Why would the British authorities;
Destoy such a valuable peice of history,
And Literature; from one of their own.
So, this shows how deep the divides were;
And the hatred of the Indian people;
For the decedant British, who I'm sure were getting into;
The usual Roman type orgies; as a natural extension;
Of the Roman Empire.
The South before the Civil War, in the United States;
Also, used the Roman paradigm, in their defense of slavery;
As the Romans considered slavery to be to be just the natural;
Course of things;
And if you didn't see things their way;
Well off to the Cross for you;
Jesus wasn't the only victim of he Romans...
Crosses were a very good method of terrorism, think about it?
Anyway, enough unstressing on the Romans...
They can still think they run the world if they need to...
The mafia, and the drug dealers, and the bankers the money traders;
In the temple of Love...
They can continue to corrupt humanity;
Through the usual vices of gambling, killing, and visually 
stimulating sexual/violent provoking images;
It's just the way it is here in Rome.
That is modern day Rome;
Is so much more than the old Empire...
All that is missing:
Caesar.
Then again, you have:
Caesars Palace; Las Vegas, where what happens here, stays here.
Thanks Mr. Big.
Thanks a lot!

[FairfieldLife] For Sparaig

2006-07-13 Thread authfriend
Don't know if you're still sparring with Skolnick
over the TM page, but I thought you might at least
get a chuckle out of this.  Doesn't sound as though
JAMA plans to have one of its news editors write a
muckraking expose of these researchers, does it?

July 13, 2006
Medical Journal Says It Was Again Misled 
By THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

CHICAGO, July 12 — For the second time in two months, The Journal of 
the American Medical Association says it was misled by researchers 
who failed to reveal financial ties to drug companies.

The journal is tightening its policies for researchers as a result.

Dr. Catherine DeAngelis, the journal's editor in chief, 

said her main concern was the impact on readers, who she said needed 
to know about researchers' financial conflicts of interest to 
properly evaluate their studies.

The latest incident, disclosed in letters to the editor and a 
correction in Wednesday's journal, involves a study showing that 
pregnant women who stop taking antidepressants risk slipping back 
into depression.

Most of the 13 authors have financial ties to drug companies 
including antidepressant makers, but only two of them revealed their 
ties when the study was published in February.

Antidepressant use during pregnancy is controversial, and some 
studies have suggested that the drugs could pose risks to the fetus.

The authors of the study defended their research in a letter to the 
editor published Wednesday. The lead author, Dr. Lee Cohen of 
Massachusetts General Hospital, who is on the speaker's bureau for 
eight drug companies, disputed that such ties could influence 
findings.

[FairfieldLife] Inside Yes: poor Tales fans

2006-07-13 Thread SoulQuest7
I just watched the DVD "Inside Yes  1968-1973" a critical review of the 
band's early career. For TALES FROM TOPOGRAPHIC OCEANS fans, it's pretty sad. 
It 
ends with TALES, and the comments are pretty negative. The only unqualified 
positive statement comes from Chris Stilmant (a sound engineer) who said it was 
"THE album of YES; I just love it. It was long songs, double album, the artwork 
was beautiful, the music was beautiful, and it was what I was expecting music 
to become...it was a masterpiece." The worst statements come from Jerry Ewing 
of Classic Rock Magazine, who describes TALES as "a crap album," "tuneless 
dirge" and asks of the lyrics "what on earth are they talking about?"  Other 
commentators talk of it meandering and being hard to pick out the melodic and 
rhythmic highlights. Well, of course this is all nonsense to me. I started 
studying TALES (and I do think it requires some extended attention) in 1975, 
and I 
liked it right away. The lyrics did not impress me until 1976 when I suddenly 
became interested in all things mystical and spiritual, and then the lyrics, 
the 
liner notes, the book that inspired it, and the artwork all became of intense 
interest. The music did not seem too extreme at all. Sides one and two were 
VERY mellow and melodic (for a rock band), with little of the boogie feel of 
rock and none of the crunch of typical guitar riffs. However, I was already a 
big fan of Renaissance, so mellow folkie stuff like The Remembering (it 
obviously had other influences like ambient electronics) was totally up my 
alley. Side 
three was the most experimental arrangement of YES' career, but since I was 
fan of other manic, weird instrumentals like ELP's arrangement of "Toccata," 
King Crimson's "Lark's Tongues In Aspic Part One" or Todd Rundgren's "A 
Treatise 
on Cosmic Fire," "The Ancient" did not seem too extreme to me at all. Heck, 
around this time I was even listening to the free jazz duets of singer Ursula 
Dudziak and pianist Adam Mankowitz, and that didn't seem too extreme either. 
Side four of TALES,"Ritual," seems like the only logical climax (no pun 
intended 
on it's tantric implications) to the effort.  
I would say that progressive rock taught me to love a wide range of 
music. YES in particular gave me a taste for classical, jazz, country, 
electronic, 
and folk music. In many cases, it wasn't until years or decades later that I 
really delved into these genres, but I credit YES with giving me my first taste 
in many cases. 
  As for today, I still enjoy a good, challenging piece of music. Right 
at the end of last year I heard Sufjan Stevens ILLINOIS album (2005), and I 
studied it for months. Just yesterday I played his new album THE AVALANCHE: 
Outtakes and extras from the Illinois Album, and all I can say is that if these 
are 
"extras" then we are dealing with a major songwriter here. His music has been 
labeled "chamber folk" which I think is a good description because though 
rooted in acoustic songwriting, he embellishes to his heart's desire. He also 
likes minimalism, prog (you can even here a tad of Genesis-like synths on a 
couple of tracks) and classical. I'm also listening to some great early 60s 
Blue 
Note jazz albums, especially Lee Morgan's CORNBREAD. 
Philosophically, I'm still interested in those 1960s questions about 
"hate and death and war" (as the Moody Blues phrased it in their lyrics). I'm 
currently watching a couple of amazing documentaries that just came out on DVD: 
WHY WE FIGHT  about the military industrial complex that President Eisenhower 
warned us about, and LEFT OF THE DIAL, about America's first liberal talk radio 
network, Air America Radio.  I'm also ooking forward to rewatching CONTROL 
ROOM about the bombing (probably deliberate on Bush's part) of al-Jazeera's 
offices. 
   To me, TALES was just a part of this flow of thought: trying to save the 
world while living on another one. -===-=-=-=-= om-=-=--= Nick

I've been mentioning that too.  Again "complaining" is a bit wrong, I've 
only been mentioning it in passing.

Yes, but, there's just a grain's difference between an Aussie, and a 
Brit.
The accent accross Great Britain, changes from place to place;
You remember the Beatles, and their 'Cockney- Liverpool accent'.
And of course the way Prince Charles speaks, the Queeens English...
Now, as I recall, the Brits, sent all the whores, criminals and other 
scum to Australia, as they used the island for a place to send 
the 'undesirables'.
Which is probably why, most Aussie's have more of a chip on their 
shoulders than the Brits, if that is possible?!
Now as far as accents go:
I can't imagine a more pure accent of Bevan's to his credit;
He can have an almost hypnotic effect, on his audience;
I would hate to see, if the TM movement really did become popular;
We could have another Attila the Hun, on our hands?

Yeah, but you've been complaining about child threads
being retitled, not about people starting brand-new
threads by replying to an old thread.

just changing the thread subject does not cause it to bifurcates. 
It bifurcates or not depending to whom you reply in the tree 
structure,
meaning is the reply is to the parent or to the child, a reply to 
the child will cause it to bifurcates.

I guess the world being what it is today a discussion on threads (very 
tantric I might add) made for a great diversion.  Or was it that Rahu 
was channeling through the group members as it transits my sixth

If you change a thread subject, it doesn’t mean the original thread is cut short. It just means it bifurcates. One thread becomes two. As I’ve just done. No harm.

An interesting theory, one that I have not heard 
before. Worth pondering. Just look at the building
designs he approves. He calls them Vedic, but they're 
all classic British Raj.

But of course, Bevan’s not a Brit. He’s Australian.

But Vaj says it's a common phrase from "the earlier
days on the net," and Yahoo Groups is quite recent.

An entirely new thead, or a tangent of the original
one, where the discussion has changed course and the
heading no longer applies?

Folks used to do this on Usenet all the time, putting
the original thread title in parens preceded by "Was:"
and nobody ever objected. It still happens now on
Google Groups' Usenet newsgroups, and Google keeps
all the subthreads together with the original (or
Usenet does, and Google doesn't change that).

When it's a *tangent* to the original, sometimes it's
useful to be able to go back and see where it branched
off.

I don't understand why anybody would start a brand-new
thread by replying to an old one, when it's so easy to
start a new one, and you don't have to delete the text
of the post you're replying to, since you're not
replying to anything.

> I've mentioned this before here particularly last year and got

> doing it).

Starting a brand-new thread by replying to a post in
an old thread and deleting the text of the post, perhaps.
I've never seen anyone but you get exercised when a
thread is retitled when it takes off in a new direction.
Often the old part continues in parallel. And there can
be quite a few branches off the old thread, all related
on some level, but dealing with different aspects of the
original topic.

> But the person whom
> I was responding to was asking why the subject changed and that
> would be considered a thread hijacking.

No, not when it's a branch off the old thread. That
just doesn't make any sense. You *should* leave in
the old title in parens, though.

I think that doing that should actually
> create a new thread in the database but apparently the Yahoo

Neither can Google's (or Usenet's, whichever one it
is that handles the threads--I've never been sure).
And personally, I don't think it should. Google
calls a thread with subthreads a "tree," because
the subthreads branch off.

Yahoo apparently uses their message numbers

ROTFLMAO!

That's the point, it never was a living. :-)  It was done in devotion
to an ideal. There are very few who would fall for it now. I really
think it's a sign of the Age of Enlightenment (tm) :) Even the 'real'
pronouncements barely make a blip now - among the un-recertified
faithful.

But Vaj says it's a common phrase from "the earlier
days on the net," and Yahoo Groups is quite recent.

An entirely new thead, or a tangent of the original
one, where the discussion has changed course and the
heading no longer applies?

Folks used to do this on Usenet all the time, putting
the original thread title in parens preceded by "Was:"
and nobody ever objected.  It still happens now on
Google Groups' Usenet newsgroups, and Google keeps
all the subthreads together with the original (or
Usenet does, and Google doesn't change that).

When it's a *tangent* to the original, sometimes it's
useful to be able to go back and see where it branched
off.

I don't understand why anybody would start a brand-new
thread by replying to an old one, when it's so easy to
start a new one, and you don't have to delete the text
of the post you're replying to, since you're not 
replying to anything.

Starting a brand-new thread by replying to a post in
an old thread and deleting the text of the post, perhaps.
I've never seen anyone but you get exercised when a 
thread is retitled when it takes off in a new direction.
Often the old part continues in parallel.  And there can
be quite a few branches off the old thread, all related
on some level, but dealing with different aspects of the
original topic.

No, not when it's a branch off the old thread.  That
just doesn't make any sense.  You *should* leave in
the old title in parens, though.

  I think that doing that should actually

Neither can Google's (or Usenet's, whichever one it
is that handles the threads--I've never been sure).
And personally, I don't think it should.  Google 
calls a thread with subthreads a "tree," because
the subthreads branch off.

An interesting theory, one that I have not heard

> http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Thread_Hijacking

But this isn't how you've defined it.  You're
all upset about the title changes, but Wikipedia's
definition doesn't even mention title changes:

"Thread hijacking is the act of taking a forum discussion thread off 
topic by discussing a subject entirely unrelated to the subject at 
hand.

"While this can be an intentional act of trolling, it is often 
accidental - caused by other participants in the discussion 
responding to a throwaway remark, taking the thread off at a tangent 
to the original subject matter. The results, whilst often humourous, 
often extract a feeling of resentment from the author of the post."

This is something people have done as long as I've
been participating in electronic forums, and I've
never seen anyone express resentment.  It isn't even
"accidental" per se (and in my experience it's rarely
trolling).

In any case, the two paragraphs are contradictory.  It's
one thing to go off on a tangent, and quite another to
introduce "a subject entirely unrelated to the subject
at hand."

Now, notice what follows; changing the thread title
is discussed as a special case:

"Many people find that they are scolded on a list or newsgroup for 
thread hijacking despite the fact that they changed the subject line, 
which would seem to them to create a new thread. Most news and mail 
readers use other headers such as References: to track and build the 
thread of messages by message ID, and changing the subject line does 
not change the actual threading."

So you're wrong to suggest that this only happens
on Yahoo; as far as Wikipedia is concerned, it's
standard.

"Therefore, one should always compose a new (and therefore reference-
free) message when changing topics. Alternatively one can start a new 
thread for the new topic and link to the previous thread."

And how does one "link to the previous thread"?  Maybe
that was possible on old Usenet, although I never saw
it mentioned and have no idea how it would have been
done.

In any case, I still think the "tree" structure is a
good one in many cases.  It works very well on Google,
but Yahoo's new implementation of it is impenetrable
(and its "Up thread" option simply doesn't work at all).

That's what I've always done (starting from my BBSing
days, when there were no such things as threads
anyway).

It *is* useful to be able to trace a thread back,
though, on occasion, so I'm all for threading, but
in a "tree" structure where the subthreads branch
off but you can trace them back to the main thread.

I agree with Barry here.  Half the fun of these
discussions is the odd directions they take.
Sometimes a subthread that takes a small piece of
the original discussion off on a tangent will turn
out to be much more fascinating than the parent
thread.

Oh, now those are terms I'm familiar with--"parent"
and "child" threads.  That refers back to the "tree"
structure--the "parent" is the trunk and the "children"
are the branches.

I would have used the principle of 'highest first', and found out who 
was ultimately in charge of the blasting; and what options would be 
open to us; if they could postpone the blasting or not;
And if they told me there was no way to stop it since they were on a 
schedule;
Then I would have been honest with the course participants and 
Maharishi, and made a group decision, based on assets, and other 
varibles, to there would be a group effort and responsiblity taken.
And not dependent on Maharishi, taking care of everything, or doing 
nothing to resolve the problem..

I'm sorry, but I don't think that's deserving of

No, my guess is that it is like an incompetent corporation;
When you get to a certain level, it becomes like a corporation;
And takes on the weaknesses of the corporate structure;
No takes responsibility; no one wants to be the one to approach 
Maharishi with 'bad news'.. so, it just slides on for the next day;
Or nobody on staff, was familiar on how to contact the right people;
Who were in charge of the building there;
or perhaps the rented the building cheap, because of the on-going 
constuction going on there, at the time.
It's like King George II, with Katrina or Iraq.
Just an incompetent staff, with no one to take responsibity;
And living in a sort of altered reality.

I don't really give a shit about threading, period,
since I've discovered that it's more fun for me to
read forums such as this one in strict chronological 
order than it is to read them 'threaded.'

But, that said, doesn't the following definition 
from Wikipedia...

@   Thread hijacking is the act of taking a forum 
@   discussion thread off topic by discussing a 
@   subject entirely unrelated to the subject at hand.
@   
@   While this can be an intentional act of trolling, 
@   it is often accidental - caused by other participants 
@   in the discussion responding to a throwaway remark, 
@   taking the thread off at a tangent to the original 
@   subject matter. The results, whilst often humourous, 
@   often extract a feeling of resentment from the author 
@   of the post.

...sound a lot like EGO to you?  :-)

I mean, somebody introduces a concept and then gets
uptight when someone takes the concept off in directions
he or she didn't intend? I'm picturing Aretha Franklin
singing, A  T  T  A  C  H  M  E  N  T.

:-)

What you're complaining about with Thunderbird, by the
way, is a limitation of ITS software. It was designed
with certain protocols in mind, as if they were standards.
They weren't.

I completely understand this on a very personal level:
To me from my experience, and my interest in astrology,
My ex-wife, Christine's birthday is Jan. 14th;
And my son, Jeff, was born Jan. 16th; right after the 'Taste of 
Utopia Course' in 1984, in Fairfield.
My son in particular does not like to hear anything that is not what 
he wants to hear; he is very self-determined not to take any one 
else's opinion on what he should be doing;
He has always been like this as a child and only get's stronger in 
his self-determination, as he gets older.
Capricorn is the 'final earth sign';
So, I guess they like to prescribe their own reality;
Of their life, and their real estate, and what they stand for;
And do not take critisism well, or want your opinion.

But, the main point, is to be a help to any leader;
Like Maharishi, or Martin Luther King, also a Capricorn;
That they do need someone, to tell them the truth;
Whether they wish to hear it or not.
Then that genuniely helps, because you can't rule, efficiently;
When you don't have the truth;
Another perfect example of this is King George II;
Although his shit is much deeper...

Well, to go one step further, I will get Freudian here, so please 
forgive me:
Suppose Maharishi, really hates the British, a lot. This is obvious, 
by his recent comments and actions, against the Brits.
This I am sure goes back the childhood, when the British owned and 
ruled India, cause Gandhi, to be the Martin Luther King of the Indian 
people, to throw off the British rule;
So, it is obvious that any Indian person would have a love/hate 
relatinship with the British:
Love because of the language and the orderliness of the Brits.
And hate of being treated like second class citizens and being ruled 
by a foriegn force.
So, maybe somehow Bevan with his size, and his accent gives 
Maharishi, the feeling somehow, on some level, that now he rules the 
Brits, and the symbol of the ruling is in his perfect speaking large 
form, long winded Bevan, the Prime Minister(English term) of 
Maharishi Land; 
And to get really Fruedian:
Suppose Maharishi's repressed sexual desires; and various accounts of 
stifled attempt in expressing his enormous love and senuality to a 
woman;
Well so, in this way the stifled sexualiy is expressed perfectly in 
Bevan: as the frustrated baffoon, of the movement, who helps to keep 
the illusion going, for Mahesh, that he's doing a good job.
Like Bush in a way:
Telling Rummy, 'Great job, Rummy;
or like:
So, in a way, perhaps was so pissed with King George II(President 
Bush),
That he saw his own dark side of in him in some way...

I never inferred such. I didn't even imply it. Perhaps you inferred
it. Your ego being so polished and immune to any perceived slights.

And yet you are blind to returning jibes? Oh it must just be the

Tell me about it. :-)

Remember the Fiats buzzing around with bullhorns on 
the top of them, spouting slogans in Italian at all
hours of the night and day? (During Italian elections,
each of the (seemingly) 108 parties has its Fiat and
its bullhorns, and they drone on all day and all night.)

I used to have meditation fantasies of dressing up in
blackface makeup and a black watch cap, WWII commando
style, and sneaking down to the roadside, waiting for
one of these Fiats to come by, and lobbing my grenade
at it. I remember the wave of bliss that overcame me
each time I saw one of them explode in my fantasies. :-)

Interestingly enough (karmically), it was shortly after
this that I experienced my first 24/7 witnessing periods.
Go fucking figure.

Is this inability to say "no" a function of the 
social hierarchy? For instance, I can't say "no" 
because only someone of higher rank would 
request something of me, and I cannot refuse 
someone who outranks me. That sort of scenario.

I'm told a big part of Japanese communication 
is determining where one ranks in relation to 
others, for one's rank determines which forms 
of speech one uses.

Or you have one helluva inferiority complex.   I only mentioned my

technology.  I would be remiss if I didn't inform you otherwise.  As far 
as being condescending the original comment was meant to be a jibe.

Yup, almost word for word. I was the "door guy" at
the hotel room door that night. I told the folks
inside that Charlie was there, and watched them
tell Maharishi. Charlie waited for an hour or so,
and then stormed off, shouting those words. Later, 
because I was the door guy, I was the one who 
Maharishi told Charlie was to blame for keeping 
him out: "They never told me." They told him.

It was just a game, and I got caught in the middle
of it. Shit happens.

Probably because it may not be possible much of anywhere else except 
Yahoo Groups.  It may not be apparent unless you are using an email 
client.  What it means is trying to start a new thread by taking an 
existing message and just changing the subject line.  I've mentioned 
this before here particularly last year and got mocked for bringing it 
up (anywhere else you may get mocked for doing it).  But the person whom 
I was responding to was asking why the subject changed and that would be 
considered a thread hijacking.  I think that doing that should actually 
create a new thread in the database but apparently the Yahoo database 
system can't handle that.  Yahoo apparently uses their message numbers 
to keep the thread order.  I'm sure there were many CF's in the Yahoo 
boardroom over this.  :)

Including studies that compared the effects of TM and other relaxation 
techniques, 
including Benson's Relaxation Response, that found that TM had more effect on 
BP. Said 
studies were performed by teams of TMing and non-TMing meditators, BTW.

If you're going to study the effect of only one form of relaxation, you might 
as well use the 
one with the most proven effect. Otherwise, you're setting yourself up to find 
"no effect," 
which is a scientific no-no, although many skeptical researchers indulge in 
variations of 
this practice.

LOL Apparently the Yahoo editor does't allow you to change thread titles. At 
least my title 
doesn't show up as title of the thread, but only with an "RE:" inside the

Japanese are even worse. You CANNOT say "no" in polite Japanese. Japanese

[FairfieldLife] Non-ru scientist on his preference for TM study

2006-07-13 Thread bob_brigante
From: US Peace Government


Quote by Dr Noel Bairey Merz about the selection of the TM 
techniquein medical research


Thought you would appreciate this statement by a non-meditating 
researcher about why the TM technique was chosen for their federally-
funded research study. This quote appeared last week in one of the 
many articles published on the release of new NIH-funded research on 
TM and heart disease.

-
---

"Transcendental Meditation is one of the techniques that has been 
studied the most, and the most rigorously, in randomized controlled 
trials. ...We chose Transcendental Meditation because it's highly 
protocolized and standardized, whereas many of the others aren't. 
For instance, Transcendental Meditation is trademarked; you have to 
be a certified instructor to teach it. The other reason we selected 
TM was that there were prior studies that suggested a very 
consistent physiological response on blood pressure."

How droll. The U.S. gives Israel billions every year so they can buy  
the most advanced weapons in order to suppress the Palestinians, and 
that's only the tip of the iceberg in terms of cost to U.S. citizens:

Says Vaj, very carefully *not* explaining what "thread
hijacking" is, so he can preserve his image as someone
who has privileged knowledge.

Really quite amazing.

I recall a tape on my teacher training course in which 
MMY talked about culturing God Consciousness via 
devotion. He talked about the role of marriage in 
helping that process along. In the course of his 
discourse, he said to never say no to your spouse. 
He said to always say yes, even if you have to say 
no later. That advice struck me as troublesome 
even before I learned the importance of being 
impeccable with one's word. I felt that changing 
one's mind would present even greater problems, 
and I still feel so today. But it makes sense in the 
cultural context described above.

The Western variation seems to be to say "yes" 
when one definitely means yes, and "maybe" 
when one would rather not say yes.

Re: [FairfieldLife] Re: Israel & terrorism& The LAND Palistine & transjorden etc

2006-07-13 Thread WLeed3





 The area of the Ottoman empire known as Palestine is now 
presently 2006 divided. Becoming the British mandate under the League of Nations 
it was divided in 1922. In that year 77% of the mandates land mass was carved 
out & given to the Arabs -- Palestinians to have as & for their own land 
& country. Today this area is know as Jordan. The remainder of the lands 
were intended by the mandate & league to be & become a homeland for 
the Jews. The Jews were then & always quite agreeable to the Arabs having 
there own nation on part of the land ( mandated lands). The remainder of 
Palestine was intended as a homeland for the Jews. the purpose for creating ( 
then called transjordan was to," establish a Jewish national home land west of 
the Jordan river & a separate Palestine entity in the Palestine east of the 
Jordan River. I note as an aside Winston Churchill often spoke & wrote 
of these purposes.

But clearly you, and especially me, are not one of the beautiful
people. Not one of the elites.  But thankfully there are people like
us so the clearly beautiful people can look down on us pissants and
finally feel really good about themselves. Its a good thing. More
happiness for all.

I'm not a programmer, but I've been participating
in electronic forums, via BBSs, email, newsgroups,
and on the Web for over 20 years, and I've never
heard the term "thread hijacking" except from
you.  I have no idea what it's supposed to mean.

Wrong.  Thread hijacking is considered bad netiquette and you'll get 
bashed for it on other lists.   I've been a programmer for over 20 years 
and have been using email and online clients for that long.  I think I 
might know a little about how these things work.  I've mentioned the 
thread hijacking many times before on this list.   And it didn't meet 
with much enthusiasm then either.  Some of the other programmers felt it 
was a bug in Yahoo as other lists will start a new thread once the topic 
changes.   What happens is that some folks with multiple emails can't 
remember which one they are using for this group.  I remember mine.   So 
they just do a reply and then change the subject.

As for being condescending, well that is just your misperception, newmo.

[FairfieldLife] Morning Kabbalah Reading

2006-07-13 Thread Kenny H
Good morning brethren!

This comes from a book on Nursing that I am doing some work for:

According to one of the central figures of Kabbalah, Rabbi Isaac Luria
(1534–1572) held that during creation, the vessels containing the
light of creation shattered, and the light became concealed as holy
sparks. Every particle and being in our physical universe contains
sparks of holiness. Our task, according to Luria, is to release each
spark from the shell and raise it up to return to its original state.
The sparks are raised through acts of loving kindness, of being in
harmony with the universe, and through higher awareness

I wonder if the TMO has ever considered building low income 
housing for retired and low income meditaters, Sidhas and Governors to live 
together and do,program together. Of course rent would have to be three times 
the going rate per square foot and those Maharishi organic veggies would have to 
be three times the price of regular organic. If they could generate their own 
Maharishi electricity they could charge three times for that also. All for low 
income folks on SS.

No, it just seems to be beyond your comprehension that most poeple
don't use an e-mail client that requires a new pristine topic in order
to have the subject changed -- e.g., the web site or their preferred
viewing vehicle. 

But since being condescending apparently makes you feel good about
yourself, and good generally, well, its a good thing, yes? :)

Firest, I would have sued the construction companies for an initial
outrageous sum. Then held tight aand ranted and raved about knowing
the governor, disturbing the laws of nature. And would make a small
donation to the local church for padre support and pressure. Then when
the construction compnaies made an attractive offer to pay "damages"
and reduced hours of blasting, I would have countered with triple
their figure as compensation, yet allowing them to increase their
hours of blasting 50%. With 12 hours to accept. Hard close. Done! 

Then I would lecture the CPs that noise was no barrier to
transcending, and consciousness did not disappear with noise. And that
those with strong experiences, those who were more evolved and closer
to CC, actually thrived on rounding in noise -- that each blast was a
thrill of bubbling bliss. 

And then I would double the price the nosiest rooms. And laugh at the
long scramble for them and long waiting list.

I would have told them that I knew about the dynamite (if I did) but that we had no control over the situation, so just bear with it.

It never really bothered me that much. They had 
these little compressed-air-powered horns that
they'd fire off three times before each blast
as a warning to the other workers. It was like:

  HONK!  HONK!  HONK!  . . .  B O O M ! ! !

I always thought it'd be fun if some worker
figured out that the adjoining hotels were full
of...uh..."sensitive" meditators and one day
they just let loose with the horns:

  HONK!  HONK!  HONK!  . . .  (nothing...no blast)

I'd betcha some people would have lost it 
heavily at that point.  :-)

[FairfieldLife] super radiance fw

2006-07-13 Thread kabbalist1
[ A FW message ]  

Dear Sidha and Governor Friends,


This past Tuesday, July 11th,  we hosted a lovely Guru Purnima 
Celebration as did all of the Maharishi Enlightenment Centers around 
the world in conjunction with the Grand Celebration with Maharishi 
in Holland.


During the Celebration, Maharhishi charged all of us to  attain the 
national super radiance number for each country and build peace 
colonies to accommodate the Yogic Flyers who wish to participate.  
There is a plan for 9 such colonies in the United States, 
accommodating 200 Yogic Flyers each to attain our super radiance 
number of 1730.

 

Locally we are encouraging all Yogic Flyers to participate in group 
program at the most convenient location for you.   As Governors and 
Sidhas we are all aware of the influence of our collective program 
and now is the time to come together, like a family, and bring peace 
to our nation and world.

 

We will be in touch very soon as the plans unfold and details 
refined, but for now there are 3 locations in Fairfield County where 
group program is available:

 

Greenwich Maharishi Enlightenment Center:  Our new office at 200 
Railroad has a proper vastu orientation which is a requirement for 
the group program location.  It is already established and we can 
start now.  There has been a dedicated group program for many years 
in Greenwich and you are very welcome, deeply encouraged to join 
us.  

 

Weston Maharishi Enlightenment Center/Nevas Vastu Home:  We can 
arrange for group program in this beautiful and nourishing home of 
Bernie and Terry Nevas.  

 

Greater Bridgeport:  We are locating a place for group program in 
the Fairfield/Bridgeport area, but for now we can gather at Kathy's 
house in Stratford which has the proper east orientation.   

 

To participate please call Kathy at either 203-629-2049 or 203-256-
9705 or you can respond to this email.

 

To get the latest news and inspiration, including Maharishi speaking 
each day, you can watch the ongoing planning sessions in Holland.  
You can access it by going to the Maharishi Channel site at: 
www.mou.org .  This site will also let you know when previous 
broadcasts of the Grand Celebration and past planning sessions are 
being broadcast.

You can also access the live broadcasts via www.globalcountry.org.


At the Grand Celebration on July 11th, Maharishi spoke briefly:

"The world has been blessed for all these long years...today we are 
offering to Guru Dev...the supreme gift...of the Constitution of the 
Universe. The result has already started to be seen that the 
countries are beginning to loose their negativity and shortcomings.  
Already in one country, Holland, we see the sign of Invincibility.  
And this we offer to Guru Dev...Today, in offering all that we have, 
to the source of all that we have, we are really blessed...We offer 
to Guru Dev, all of our achievements, and all of our future 
achievements for the world--permanent peace on earth."

 
It is our joy and honor to participate in creating coherence for the 
world, peace on earth.
Please contact me for information on how we can all come together to 
do what we are blessed to do.  Thank you and I wish you all joy.
 
Jai Guru Dev

Partly, it’s an Indian cultural thing. Indians hate to say no. So they say yes even when they mean no. MMY often did this. He would say yes to someone then a few minutes later tell his secretary to tell the person no. People interpreted this as his cosmic way of helping their evolution.

yes, under the circumstances Israel needs to put some money in order 
to defend itself. It's military had significant budgets cuts. Seeing 
the situation today, I'm not sure it was a smart move.

that Israel is their rightful land, yes, and it is! (and also to

as 'expert' Palestinians.

Of course, what COULD be done about the dynamite?

If someone really cared, they could have thrown themselves on top of it just as it was exploding and sacrificed themselves for the other course participants. But NO

Yes, he couldn't miss it. It was happening all over the place. 
Probably outside his own hotel as well. Majorca was a tourist resort for fun in 
the sun. M got great deals to rent these hotels during the off season when they 
would have sat virtually empty. The TMO provided jobs, and maintenance for the 
Hotels and Majorcans during a time that would have been very 
lean.

So you think the Israelis haven't built more weapons with the money we give 
THEM? If you 
don't give food-items or medical items to a country, but instead give money, 
every cent you 
give can be counted as military expenditures up to the full amount.

You think that many Israelis don't teach their kids the same thing? Dare I 
mention that 
international city, Jerusalem? The USA STILL won't move its embassy there and 
the Israelis 
have claimed it as their capital for how long now?

That would be a possibility, except that under
pressure the course leaders admitted they hadn't
told him because they didn't want to bother him
with "petty details."

But to your point, I have personally seen Maharishi
lie his socks off to someone (Charlie Lutes) for 
the very reason you mention, to give the impression
that someone else had done what he himself had done
(kept Charlie waiting in a hotel hallway for a long
time, which pissed Charlie off so much that he 
threw a tantrum and stormed out of the hotel).

  nablus108 in his recent reply changed completely 
the message subject/topic in a rude manner. The original topic was 
"Palestinians & terrorism " .  Is it accustomed to do such 
on this MB ?  Often, threads 
  morph so that what’s being discussed bears no resemblance to the original 
  discussion or to the subject line. When this happens, we recommend changing 
  the subject line. 

And that morphing process can be rather quick at 
times.
