[FairfieldLife] Re: Help Wanted - Spokesperson Needed

Unless appointed otherwise, they do need a public defender here, someone who could stand in the dock and give it back when charged. I'd still like to see RudraJoe take on the postion of public defender of the TMorg and MMY here by appointment. As a public service. If anyone is up to it i do think his mind could be. I was sorry when Ken Wood bowed out recently. The current replacement for Jane Hopson in TMorg fund raising, Jonathan Worster a long time ago too used to post. They gave the brilliant true- believer reply in short bursts but withered and retreated in the public crossfire. It is kind of an indefensible postion being a defender of the TMOrg and MMY almost anywhere now, to the point of having to crawl on bellies. Position wanted, defender of the faithful at FFL. Public service minded volunteers wanted. Apply on line @FFL. Just send sample of your writing and thinking to FFL. It's hard finding someone who has kept themselves far enough away from the TMO to still be willing to defend it. About the only people left who have managed that are the long-term meditators who carefully never went to TTC and never got involved with the movement. They wisely did this *so that* they could preserve their illusions about Maharishi, enlightenment, and the TMO. It also helps to have never met Maharishi or been in the same room with him. But lately even this is not enough, because even though these folks have tried their best never to hear anything that disturbs their fantasies, they've heard enough that even they don't claim to support the TMO and Maharishi any more. In fact, when called TM TBs, they become irate and attack the person who called them that. So my feeling is that if you want to fill the position of Public Defender of the TMO, you're gonna have to *recruit* for it. Find a place where unemployment is out of control and people are desperate for a job, any job, and then find someone who is willing to read any script placed in front of him for a price. To be certain that he doesn't improvise or deviate from the script in any way, you should make sure that the guy does NOT start TM. Otherwise, he might find out that many of the claims he'll be reading about it aren't true. Also, he should never learn or be allowed to witness yogic flying, only photographs of people in mid-air, *as if* they were flying. Follow these guidelines and I'm sure you'll find a good spokesperson soon. Just pick some guy who looks fairly healthy and smiles a lot and who can read a script. It won't *matter* that the guy doesn't do TM and never has -- if time has shown anything with regard to the TMO, it's that appearance is more important than reality. :-) To subscribe, send a message to: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Or go to: http://groups.yahoo.com/group/FairfieldLife/ and click 'Join This Group!'

And it has gotten us way past the point I was making. I don't think people are stupid, period. I just believe in a cautious approach with complex tasks and practices, and TM I put in that category. Not because the practice is complex, but the results can be. Much better. But might I point out that I suspect the reason you believe that a cautious approach is necessary is because you were told this, over and over and over and over, for decades, by Maharishi? Not everyone has been studying comparative spirituality as you have, and for as long as you have. So for most people I believe a conservative approach is best. Especially for a technique as powerful as TM. I honestly believe the opposite. I believe that all seekers deserve to be treated as adults, because they really are -- they've been around the spiritual block hundreds or thousands of times before in previous incarn- ations, or they would never have run into meditation in this one. Therefore they deserve to be treated like the experienced seekers they are. Maharishi clearly does not think this way. He treats his students like children, with himself as Daddy. That is his right, and it is your right to believe that this is appropriate. Me, I just think that treating people like children is a great way of keeping them children forever, and that that's the point. As a general policy with regard to TM and other techniques, as far as I heard it directly when involved with the TMO, it sounds about right. You may be an exception to that policy, being able to entertain multiple techniques at once (though not TM). I believe that *everyone* is an exception to this rule, because the rule DOES NOT EXIST, but it's OK to agree to disagree about this... To leave Maharishiji after many years of meditation for some other practice is a spiritual suicide.

[FairfieldLife] Suspension of disbelief taken to its ultimate extreme
If you ever start feeling that TMers will believe *anything*, just take a look at this page to see the kinds of things that Nablus and his fellow Benjamin Creme freaks believe. It's a series of Maitreya sightings, confirmed by Creme himself. Every one of them on the page is good for a laugh; sample provided below the link: http://www.shareintl.org/magazine/old_issues/2003/september_03.htm Dear Editor, On 23 June 2003 I was in Toulouse, France, and I was going back to my brother's apartment, around 11-12pm. Suddenly a middle-aged man, looking like a beggar, asked if I could help him with some money. He was carrying a huge bag, smelled of alcohol and there was a big white dog with him. I gave him one euro and then he told me he had an appointment with a friend of his who hadn't shown up. We went together down the street and he told me about his experiences. He said he had travelled a lot, spent some time in Amsterdam and India, that he used to be a disciple of Sri Maharishi for nine years. Then he told me he had had an operation some time ago, which left him with seven scars on his arm, he then showed me a tattoo on his arm looking like a seven-pointed star. He also said that his dog, who was like a son for him, had had an operation too, which was kind of funny. At one point he told me, without knowing where I lived, that we might have passed by my building already, which we had. He then asked me to hold his heavy bag and took a small address book out for the address of his friend living near a `Casino' store. Since we had passed in front of it a few minutes ago, I offered to show him the way. When we arrived he used a strange key to open the door and said he was not sure his friend was there. I left him, but after a few steps he called me again and told me his friend was not there. I offered for him to stay inside my building where there was enough space for him and his dog. We had nearly reached our destination when he told me that his dog would know to stand exactly in front of my building's door before us a few seconds later, the dog crossed the street and stood in front of it! Since the main electronic gate was closed I told him I couldn't open it as the key was in my brother's house. It wasn't a problem for me to climb the gate but for them I was not sure. He surprised me again and said it wasn't a problem for him, and took a key out which fitted perfectly in the lock. When he turned it, the gate opened. I couldn't believe my eyes and told him that his key was magic. I showed him a place where he could stay with his dog, inside the building. He took his sleeping bag and put it on the floor and asked me for some food. I told him that unfortunately the fridge was empty (in fact it was, except for a tin of fish already opened) and again without knowing that, he said that a tin of fish would be enough for him. I gave him the food and he asked me for a bowl of water for his dog. Because my brother was a little upset by all my `comings and goings' I suggested he use a plate. He said it was OK, and that he was going to cut half of a plastic bottle for this purpose. He thanked me by taking my hand in a strange manner, like old friends do. It was a marvellous experience and all the time I felt a strong feeling inside of me. I think that the man and his dog were not ordinary beings, and I would like to know if you can tell me who they really were. A. H. Paris, France. (Benjamin Creme's Master confirms that the `middle-aged man' was Maitreya. The `dog' was the Master Jesus.)

Perhaps this was the finest take of this scene or the worst or perhaps it never made it into the finsihed movie. Are you suggesting that this is a good way to judge Lynch's previous works, BTW? Because you're implying that you can judge all of the director's works by seeing one scene out-of- context... Of course, come to think of it, this DOES fit in with the way y ou come across in your posts here and on a.m.t.

I don't think I was ever a starry-eyed TMer, and I definitely never thought he had any kind of pipeline to any useful knowledge, but I used to go to his Friday night talks in L.A. regularly, because it was the best place in town for a TM guy to get lucky. The women would go and listen to him and get all starry-eyed and feel that lower chakra kundalini energy flowing, and then they'd go for the first non-celibate guy they ran into. Even non-TM guys knew about the scene and would go there looking to get laid, usually successfully.

I think Charlie really got a kick out of the near
absolute authority we handed over to him. He only
abused it by allowing us to believe all this

Contrast Charlie with Jerry Jarvis. Charlie was an

About the only people left who have managed that are the long-term meditators who carefully never went to TTC and never got involved with the movement. They wisely did this *so that* they could preserve their illusions about Maharishi, enlightenment, and the TMO. It also helps to have never met Maharishi or been in the same room with him. But lately even this is not enough, because even though these folks have tried their best never to hear anything that disturbs their fantasies, they've heard enough that even they don't claim to support the TMO and Maharishi any more. In fact, when called TM TBs, they become irate and attack the person who called them that. [Somehow I suspect Barry's referring to me here.

[Me, July 16, 1997] I'd be the last to contest the notion that the movement *per se* sucks big-time and often makes incredibly stupid decisions. [November 18, 1997] The organization sucks. So what else is new? [November 26, 1997] Speaking for myself, the red flags were raised long ago with regard to movement abuses. The movement, as I've said here many times, sucks. [April 1, 1998] To sum up those reservations in one phrase (which I've used often here), the organization *sucks*. [October 31, 1998] In my opinion, the true nature of the TM organization is that it sucks big-time. Barry was present on alt.m.t and participating in many if not all the discussions from which these quotes were taken. And just to drive the point home, from a post of mine to Barry on FFL from July of this year: Ah, but I don't care about the movement. I think it sucks, as I've said many, many times. So there's no question about it, Barry knows what I think of the movement and has known for many years. He is lying through his teeth above. (He also knows I've made many other criticisms of the TMO and MMY here, but unfortunately the Advanced Search is broken, so I can't quote them.) As to his oft-repeated canard that I never took TTC because I wanted to preserve [my] illusions, in fact I didn't take TTC because I *had no illusions* about the movement and didn't want to get so heavily involved with an organization I thought sucked.

SEPTEMBER 6: INVINCIBILITY UPDATE http://invincibleamerica.org GOOD NEWS KEEPS GETTING BETTER September 6, 2006 Today is the 15th day of the second month of US national consciousness rising to invincibility, as indicated by the following press reports... The U.S. business press continues to marvel at how unexpectedly strong the economy is... Bloomberg News: A Bullish Week Oil prices fell, the economic numbers showed steady growth, inflation is not increasing, and economic growth is steady. Mounting fears over dangerously escalating levels of inflation are now over... The Washington Post: Federal Reserve Board President says inflation is under control The stock market continues to rise to new heights...

Reuters: Oil falls to 3-½ month low as fears diminish Since a record of $78.65 last month, oil prices have fallen steeply by around $10 a barrel as a weaker-than-expected hurricane season and easing geopolitical tensions have pressured prices downward. The Christian Science Monitor: Falling gas prices may lift entire economy Over the past month, gasoline prices have dropped more than 30 cents a gallon, with the price of fuel at the lowest level since mid- April. The lower pump prices will add $2 billion a month in buying power to the economy. Falling gasoline prices are part of an unexpected favorable economic mosaic that is developing this fall. And remarkably, the good energy news just got miraculously better... Associated Press: U.S. Oil Reserves Could Grow by 50 Pct. Results from a deep-water test well in the Gulf of Mexico suggest a new pool of oil and gas that could boost U.S. reserves by as much as 50 percent. The 300- square- mile region could hold between 3 billion and 15 billion barrels of oil and natural gas liquids. The discovery carries particular importance for the entire industry at a time when Western oil and gas companies are finding fewer opportunities in politically unstable parts of the world, including the Middle East, Africa, and Russia. Last week we saw headlines on how European markets are rising, spurred by positive news in the US. Now we see the same trend on the other side of the world...

And, as I said before, you LOVE to make excuses for anything TM-related, doncha? If that's not what's happening, answer the first question above. Exactly WHAT did you feel was a good moment in this piece of crap? Some of the expressions and meaningful glances between the two women looked very real-to-life rather than Hollywood emotions. In all seriousness, Lawson, if their interactions struck you as real-to-life, you're ready to join Nablus in accepting the pronouncements of Creme. :-) Stop embarrassing yourself, dude.

It is a disgusting, grossly over rated sick film. The clip in discussion is just more pretentious film nonsense. Notice the chromakey effect (or whatever it's called now in digital film making, it's been a few decades!)with the male actor? What's that for? I just don't like his work.

David Lynch has a lifetime artistic pass from me for Blue Velvet. That movie will stay in my top 10 movies forever. He let Dennis Hopper totally spin out into one of the most memorable film characters ever. His use of Roy Orbison music was totally inspired. The Candy Coated Clown scene still haunts me. Since then he sometimes has lost me, or annoyed me with fragmented plot information, but he has almost always entertained me with an original way to look at film. I liked his experiment short clip. I dug how he had me on edge with the weirdness of the dialog at first, and the fact that I wasn't sure if he would go off on the smirky chicks. I dug the odd digital effects he tried out to convey change, it reminded me of M. Night Shyamalan at his best. Although I didn't go along with the song, it reminded me how much I dug Julie Cruise from the music of Blue Velvet. I saw her live and she is great. David can seem contrived in his weirdness, but at least he tries to come up with stuff that has emotional impact in a new way. His themes of super purity and total evil together work for me. The fact that he thinks giving MMY money will help the world makes him seem charmingly naive to me. I'll even give him a pass on that fantasy, it is his money. --- In FairfieldLife@yahoogroups.com, Peter [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: --- sparaig [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: --- In FairfieldLife@yahoogroups.com, TurquoiseB no_reply@ wrote: It had its moments...

Exactly WHAT did you feel was a good moment in this piece of crap? Some of the expressions and meaningful glances between the two women looked very real-to-life rather than Hollywood emotions. In all seriousness, Lawson, if their interactions struck you as real-to-life, you're ready to join Nablus in accepting the pronouncements of Creme. :-) Stop embarrassing yourself, dude. The only reason you are cutting this stuff any slack is because Lynch is a well-known TMer. If he were anything else you'd be as amazed at its awfulness as every- one else here has been. And if he were a prominent Buddhist, you'd be saying that the footage proves that Buddhist meditation techniques make the mind confused and lazy.

Are you trying to show your lack of reading comprehension? I said nothing about dialog. I said the meaningful glances between the two women were more true-to-life than much of the emotive stuff that traditionally comes out of Hollywood. Meaningful glances doesn't mean talking out loud. I've always regarded much, not all, of Lynch's work as film school crap Lynch has a very creepy aspect to him that can be manifested in his films. Ever seen Ereaser Head ?

If that's the case, more power to him. My problem with his films, at least Mulholland Drive, the only one recently I've had even the least desire to sit through, is that they're weird, scary, and ultimately, for me at least, boring. What the (bleep) went on in that film?? There was little story line that I could identify as such, and the characters seemed like they were cut out of comic books. It reminded me of nothing so much as a deep movie that everybody is supposed to think is great, even though no one really had any idea what the (bleep) actually happened, but are too scared to say so, thinking that it's their problem, and that everyone else got it because they're so much smarter, more perceptive, etc. You know, kind of like the trip the TMO lays on people. :) Anyway, Lynch himself seems nice enough, and I'm sure he's talented--maybe one of these days he'll start making movies people actually want to watch.

So from the California perspective this is a totally reasonable fee (cheap, actually). I don't know, and am not saying anything about whether SSRS's seminars are cheap or expensive. They are clearly much cheaper than the TMO prices. The last time I saw the Dalai Lama here in France, it cost 20 Euros a day, for the whole day. P.S.

AOL members are typically generous and very warm hearted as seva, generosity and charity for the less fortunate is a big part of the teaching. Same here. All teachers I have seen in France allow those who can't pay to attend their talks for free. Those I've met who give in-residence seminars (like the TM residence courses) all charge a very reasonable fee for room and board and course fee (say 40-60 Euros a day), but usually allow those who can't afford that to camp on the property and attend for free.

SEPTEMBER 6: INVINCIBILITY UPDATE http://invincibleamerica.org GOOD NEWS KEEPS GETTING BETTER September 6, 2006 Today is the 15th day of the second month of US national consciousness rising to invincibility, as indicated by the following press reports... The U.S. business press continues to marvel at how unexpectedly strong the economy is... Bloomberg News: A Bullish Week Oil prices fell, the economic numbers showed steady growth, inflation is not increasing, and economic growth is steady. Mounting fears over dangerously escalating levels of inflation are now over... The Washington Post: Federal Reserve Board President says inflation is under control The stock market continues to rise to new heights... The New York Times: Wall Street rose again Tuesday, building on three- month highs And as the stock market soars, the price of oil and gas continues to fall... Reuters: Oil falls to 3-½ month low as fears diminish Since a record of $78.65 last month, oil prices have fallen steeply by around $10 a barrel as a weaker-than-expected hurricane season and easing geopolitical tensions have pressured prices downward. The Christian Science Monitor: Falling gas prices may lift entire economy Over the past month, gasoline prices have dropped more than 30 cents a gallon, with the price of fuel at the lowest level since mid- April. The lower pump prices will add $2 billion a month in buying power to the economy. Falling gasoline prices are part of an unexpected favorable economic mosaic that is developing this fall. And remarkably, the good energy news just got miraculously better... Associated Press: U.S. Oil Reserves Could Grow by 50 Pct. Results from a deep-water test well in the Gulf of Mexico suggest a new pool of oil and gas that could boost U.S. reserves by as much as 50 percent. The 300- square- mile region could hold between 3 billion and 15 billion barrels of oil and natural gas liquids. The discovery carries particular importance for the entire industry at a time when Western oil and gas companies are finding fewer opportunities in politically unstable parts of the world, including the Middle East, Africa, and Russia. Last week we saw headlines on how European markets are rising, spurred by positive news in the US. Now we see the same trend on the other side of the world...

Reuters: Qatar pledges 200-300 troops to UN Lebanon force Qatar became the first Arab country to commit troops to the expanded UN force set up to keep the peace between Israel and Hizbollah guerrillas in south Lebanon. And finally, on a lighter note, it is interesting to see how quickly the words and phrases Maharishi uses make their way into the mainstream... For example, the most popular movie for the past two weeks in the United States is about a very kind-hearted young man who overcomes all obstacles to become a successful athlete.

[FairfieldLife] Calligraphy beyond words
From the New York Times: September 8, 2006 Art Review Pictorial Delights Beyond Words By HOLLAND COTTER IF painting and writing can be seen as modes of thinking, and they can, then Brush and Ink: The Chinese Art of Writing, at the Metropolitan Museum, is as much a brainstorming session as an art exhibition, crackling with ideas and arguments every step of the way. It is also a sequence of moods, with impassioned voices calling out from the 80 scrolls and inscribed fans spanning several centuries, including the 21st, that line the galleries. Poor me, sighs an exiled scholar in a sad letter home. Lucky us, sings an exultant empress at the height of her power. Other voices, a whole chorus, chime in: Be joyous. Be calm. Beware And once you've seen it, you might even feel that Huang's cursive masterpiece out-Pollocks Pollock. Certainly its 60-foot-long flow of looping, swooping characters they twist and shout; pump up, slim down; leave skid marks behind them blurs distinctions between writing and painting, control and spontaneity, virtuosity and accident. On top of this, it dramatizes, in compelling, nonrepresentational terms, a complicated story of political intrigue and endangered friendship By no means everything is wild and crazy. An exquisite eighth-century manuscript called Spiritual Flight Sutra is a paradigm of centered probity. Its characters are uniform in weight, geometrically structured, meticulously aligned. Designed for legibility, they also convey the pacific ethos of the Taoist scripture they embody.

He eats the same thing every day, at the same time every day, and never deviates. From what she said, it's almost as if he's so weird inside that he compensates in his life by acting overly normal. There is quite possibly some OCD going down.

He *can* do that (The Straight Story), but IMO he goes for obscure whenever he needs money, because he knows that it sells. Americans are not quite the suckers for pretence and pomposity that the French are, but enough of the critics are to ensure a few good reviews, and thus a break-even at the box office, which is the most important thing to any director who hopes to direct another film after his current one. I don't personally like his style of filmmaking very much, but I have to say that almost *everything* he's ever released, *including* Eraserhead, has been better than the recent clip.

I don't believe this group exists. No one on this board that I have read is this naive. You say that people should be treated like adults and yet you presume there is a group of childish minds here. But lately even this is not enough, because even though these folks have tried their best never to hear anything that disturbs their fantasies, No offense meant, but I have seen you make up a couple of fantasies recently, so those who don't want their fantasies disturbed is not the exclusive club you are imagining it to be. You stated recently that I was angry and fearful of powerful words, curse words, until proven incorrect (my post #99488), and then went on to say that the reason I thought a cautious approach to TM was due to repetition of this value by Maharishi. Also wrong (my 20 years of training have formed that opinion of mine). I think you are probably a cool guy, and we'd enjoy a bottle of wine together if in the same place. However, your tendency to believe in this large amorphous group of True Believers out there somewhere, who are all fearful and angry about the Shining Truth seems kind of compulsive to me. As I said yesterday, I believe that everyone who joins a spiritual movement goes through initial phases of brainwashing, proselytizing, working for the organization, disillusionment, etc. Its a natural part of spiritual maturity. Continuing to harp about those who may not have torn down all of their illusions about the TMO and Maharishi may be a helpful exercise for you, but I seriously doubt many of those folks hang out here. Even if there are a couple lurking, how much credence do you think they are giving an ex Rama, ex TM teacher who calls them angry and fearful? they've heard enough that even they don't claim to support the TMO and Maharishi any more. In fact, when called TM TBs, they become irate and attack the person who called them that. Again, this illusory group you have created with its imagined anger and attacks doesn't exist.

[FairfieldLife] Funny Men-from-Mars Women-from-Venus story
Don't blame me...I didn't write it, I just chuckled over it: Sexual urges of men and women I never have quite figured out why the sexual urges of men and women differ so much. And I never have figured out the whole Venus and Mars thing. And I never figured out why men think with their head and women think with their heart. And I never yet have figured out how the sexual desire gene gets thrown into a state of turmoil when it hears the words I do. One evening last week, my wife and I were getting into bed. Well, the passion starts to heat up, and she eventually says, I don't feel like it. I just want you to hold me. I said, WHAT??? So she says the words that I and every husband on the planet dread. She explains that I must not be in tune with her emotional needs as a woman. I'm thinking, What was her first clue? I finally realize that nothing was going to happen that night, so I went to sleep. The very next day, we went shopping at a big, unnamed department store. I walked around with her while she tried on three different, very expensive outfits. She could not decide which one to take, so I told her to take all three of them. She then tells me that she wants matching shoes worth $200.00 a pair to which I say OK. And then we go to the jewelry department where she gets a pair of diamond earrings. Let me tell you. She was so excited. She must have thought that I was one wave short of a shipwreck, but I don't think she cared. I think she was testing me when she asked for a tennis bracelet because she does not even play tennis. I think I threw her for a loop when I told her that it was OK. She was almost sexually excited from all of this, and you should have seen her face when she said, I'm ready to go to the cash register now. I could hardly contain myself when I blurted out, No, honey, I don't feel like buying all this stuff now. You should have seen her face. It went completely blank. I then said, Really, honey, I just want you to HOLD this stuff for a while. And just when she had this look like she was going to kill me, I added, You must not be in tune with my financial needs as a man. I figure that I won't be having sex again until some time after the Spring of 2008 but godammit it was worth it.

I think this pearls comment is more a reflection

about Realized people. As we all know MMY likes

hate to say it but it's true, lie to manipulate

the

Yup, I agree. It always bothered me when he would go
on about people
picking up on the desire of an *enlightened* one and
fulfilling it...
('that's a verrry good thing'). For a while, I
thought his ideas about
truth telling was a distortion of an Indian cultural

I think it is a cultural thing too. East Indians do
have this habit of telling things to people to try to
get them to think and feel a certain way. MMY just has
REAL bad! I think we in the West miss the subtle
non-verbal cues that would let you know that a person
is not being truthful in the Western sense of the

Speaking of wine, I discovered a great wine shop around here and can highly recommend Dogwood Cellars Zinfandel (2003) and DeSante Sauvignon Blanc. Both California wines, and really good!

[FairfieldLife] MMY ethics?
Even if MMY's ethics may leave something to be desired, the relevant, and only relevant question is what is the effectiveness of the TM and TM Sidhis programs. Do they work or not. I'm interested in a consensus. This question does not seem to be addressed but only peripheral issues such as MMY' personal behavior.

Pretty sad way to go through life. Even though the film was paid for and directed by a friend of mine, until recently I had never been able to see the What the Bleep movie. When I did, there was a section in there where they were talking about how people's brains get so fucked up and programmed to expect certain inputs that they become unable to process any *other* inputs. So, for example, if a person had gotten hooked early in life that the only feedback they were likely to get from the world was in terms of conflict and being in opposition to someone, they might tend to try for the rest of their entire lives to create conflict every- where they go. But that's probably just a non-sequitur.

If you find someone who objects to other people lying, you can be absolutely sure they're a True Believer. Lying just doesn't bother normal people. And truly spiritual people care even less.
