The Finnish "translation" is, to say the least, rather lame; something like "those, who have chosen not to marry". The Latin goes like "qui se ipsos castraverunt"... (those who castrate themselves), and the German "die sich selbst verschnitten haben um des Himmelreichs willen."

Most of the water probably goes into the veggies, swiss chard for instance being 94% water http://waltonfeed.com/self/h2ocont.html . The raison d'etre for heated greenhouses is being able to grow veggies year round in the Siberian climate of the Midwest, not to conserve water, although I guess there must be some savings: http://aginfo.psu.edu/psa/ws2000/green5.html One of the biggest problems with irrigated crops, especially when you try to recycle greenhouse water, is build-up of salts: "Several hundred thousand acres on the west side of the San Joaquin Valley have severe drainage problems, to the extent that the long- term productivity of the land is in question. The soil is naturally high in salt and selenium, and even "fresh" irrigation water contains salt that build up in soil over time. Farmers use irrigation water to leach unwanted salt from around crop roots, but leaching also threatens the high groundwater table. Despite their best efforts, farmers are fighting a losing battle: salt buildup from heavy irrigation is making the west side farmland less productive." http://www.caff.org/publications/aa/02_spring/farm_management.shtml To subscribe, send a message to: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Or go to: http://groups.yahoo.com/group/FairfieldLife/ and click 'Join This Group!'

[FairfieldLife] 'Pope's speech on Faith and reason (Islam & Democracy- Incompatible)'
(snip) "I'm asking for a name and quote from someone who > says Iraqis aren't evolved enough to handle > democracy. I gather you just made that part up." It's not a question of evolution, More of a question of having a democracy, In a culture of Islam. Islam is based on subjugation of woman. So right there, no democracy is possible. And so many other reasons... Mr.Bush was influenced by a Russian writer- Natan Sharansky, Soviet human rights activist and Israeli politician ... Anyway, this Russian guy, convinced Mr.Bush, that democracy would be the answer to everything... Mr.Bush bought this notion, lock, stock and barrel... The only problem is, it may be compatible with European and other systems of religion...or belief system. But Islam does not allow for free debate. Beheadings are more the style there. Therefore,,, democracy does not work, and is incompatible with Islam.. R.G.

[FairfieldLife] Re: Debbie Henning
> We... Short answer: there's no consistent physiological changes found in hypnotic > subjects while there is with TMers. I wonder if the hypnotic subjects you are talking about practiced it as consistently as the TM group. What type of hypnotic technique was used? As you may know, there are as many hypnotic techniques as there are types of mediation. Calling one subject a hypnotic subject is like using a generic meditator in place of a TM meditator. Perhaps the TM form of self-hypnosis does show consistent physiological changes. That doesn't prove that it is a different state, it may be a subset of the broader trance phenomenon. MMY calls the TM induced states "higher states". I think this is marketing hype with no evidence of "higher" anything in its practicers with the exception of some who seem to have induced inflated self-regard. I am glad there are people researching this stuff. There is a lot of room for different points of view. I suspect that I chose my own view after a more rigorous test of the uniqueness of TM states in the movement than you have with hypnosis. If you were trained in Ericksonian hypnosis you might change your mind.

There wasn't a lot of argument about invading Afghanistan. Sentiment was very strong just weeks after 911. But there were a few that did. Yes everybody was concerned about the use of WMD's on invading troops in Iraq but many especially in the media kept saying 50,000 troops would die taking Baghdad. Seems one of them was Sam Donaldson, not sure about that though. __._,_.___ To subscribe, send a message to: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Or go to: http://groups.yahoo.com/group/FairfieldLife/ and click 'Join This Group!'

Short answer: there's no consistent physiological changes found in hypnotic subjects while there is with TMers.

I believe a correct translation is "It's hard to believe that a circumcised penis isn't less sensitive than an uncircumcised penis." I'm just curious whether Eki and B.

But oh well. Keep your anti-stuff going if it makes you happy." So what term would you prefer to represent our own point of view on these states? I didn't know that there was any universal scientific consensus on the terms yet. I think in this area of very new science there is a lot of room for differences of opinions on what these states mean or what we should call them. Margret was viewing it from her clinical experiences with ex TMers. That was her opinion. I am comfortable referring to them as trance states because I think they are hypnotically induced. That is my conclusion from my own experience with TM and hypnosis training in the style of Milton Erickson whose expertise I respected. My position is no more characterized as "anti stuff" then your point of view is. We are both doing the best we can to interpret our experiences honestly, right? It is my best understanding of the experience. I respect that this is not how you view it. --- In FairfieldLife@yahoogroups.com, "sparaig" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > > --- In FairfieldLife@yahoogroups.com, "curtisdeltablues" wrote: > > > > "> Heh.

With the popular teacher Jesus advocating it, I am surprised it is not more common among believers: Matthew 19:12 "For there are eunuchs who were born that way from their mother's womb; and there are eunuchs who were made eunuchs by men; and there are also eunuchs who made themselves eunuchs for the sake of the kingdom of heaven. He who is able to accept this, let him accept it." It caused a weird cult of people "accepting it" around the time of Marcus Garvey.

So, then Abraham, heard the voice of: "G*d the Father... And he had two sons, Isaac and Ishmaiel: Isaac began the Jewish tradition, And Ishmaeil provided the Arabs w/Islam.

But what happens if the mind stays there is that it functions from that level and it is quite clear that you actually do know everything. Any intent or question is immediately "answered" in the instant crystal clarity of understanding. Really quite amazing. All understanding is already there. Everything makes sense in a beautiful integrated pattern of perfection. But it's not flashy because its also clear that the mind always functions like this and that everyone is always functioning from the level of ritam bhara pragya.

You kept trying to connect > the two as if it were far more common. That seemed to be clearly > your intention. I'm glad you've learned better. :) Let's see if you are able to learn better. I doubt it, but maybe, *just maybe*, this will help: My point in both cases had nothing whatsoever to do with how common clinical depression is or is not following the death of a spouse. We don't even know whether Debbie had clinical depression. We *do* know she became emotionally ill after Doug died. In both cases, the folks I was responding to appeared to be attributing Debbie's illness to her TM practice. My point was that before assuming someone's emotional illness was caused by their TM practice, we should ask whether there was anything *else* going on in their lives that might have been responsible. In Debbie's case, she had just gone through an extremely traumatic experience. Some people *do* fall apart after the death of a spouse; it isn't uncommon (in other words, although it isn't common, it isn't as rare as you suggest). That's why there are therapists who specialize in grief counseling, to help such people get themselves together again. If they're predisposed to depression, they may become clinically depressed. Or they could suffer from severe anxiety, or any number of other conditions. This is regardless of whether the marriage was "healthy." Any major trauma--and the death of a spouse usually constitutes such a trauma--can trigger a breakdown, even in apparently psychologically healthy people. There may be a chemical component, for example, or the person may have a weak spot in their psychological makeup that had never before been assaulted. Most likely, I should think, joining Mother Divine didn't help, if only because it wouldn't have given her the opportunity to grieve, which is essential for recovering from bereavement. She may have joined MD, at least subconsciously, to avoid *having* to grieve, since it wouldn't have been encouraged. Grieving isn't a fun process. She may have found her grief so overwhelming that she thought she had to find some way not to have to confront it. And she likely wouldn't have gotten a lot of help when she began to fall apart, either, however that manifested itself. I wouldn't be *surprised* if the extended TM practice in MD also helped trigger the breakdown, but I'll bet you a buck that joining MD was a symptom of a preexisting problem that proceeded to get worse because she was trying to escape it rather than deal with it. I also suspect giving away most of her money was another symptom. But bottom line, whatever went wrong with Debbie, one would want to *rule out* that it was triggered by Doug's death before automatically attributing it to her TM practice. That was the point I was making. To subscribe, send a message to: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Or go to: http://groups.yahoo.com/group/FairfieldLife/ and click 'Join This Group!' Yahoo!

Jai Guru Dev." I don't see any issue with Maharishi's statement: I remember seeing a tape of him, with an astronaut, a few years ago... And the astronaut, was describing, in poetic terms; Now beautiful it was to see the whole earth, from a distance; And how it seemed to be floating in the silence of space... Maharishi commented on his response to this experience, As a cosmic experience. If you read some of the poetry of Walt Whitman, who was including in the 'Great Men Series' at M.I.U., he was included as someone who was 'Cosmic'... And cosmic people have quite a different experience of things; We all know that... We have become so materialistic, we have trouble sometimes; Comprehending anything that we cannot see, hear, feel, , taste or smell... So, whoever wishes to criticize Maharishi for his remarks; It's like 'Pearls before swine'. Many of the people of this world, and the past; Cannot conceive of an 'Invisible God'... Remember: 'Knowledge is structured in consciousness'; Limited consciousness, cannot concieve of things that have no limits...

OK, good. Then why do you keep mentioning her illness in relation to her having lost Doug, as if one almost followed naturally from the other? It doesn't. In fact, from what I've been able to gather, Debbie's condition, *if* brought forth solely or even mostly, by Doug's death, would be somewhat rare. You kept trying to connect the two as if it were far more common. That seemed to be clearly your intention. I'm glad you've learned better. :) Sal To subscribe, send a message to: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Or go to: http://groups.yahoo.com/group/FairfieldLife/ and click 'Join This Group!' Yahoo!

Judy, just out of curiosity, where does the idea come from that clinical depression, or freaking out, or whatever you want to call it, is more common amongst those who have just lost their spouses, than in general? Dr. Pete, can you comment on this? From what I've read, when one spouse does die, especially if the marriage has been healthy, the person is able to go on with their life fairly well, after a period of mourning the loss. "Freaking out" usually isn't part of the equation IIRC, especially after a protracted illness. It's still a shock, yeah, but not one that normally shoots the person's entire wad, so to speak. So I'm wondering where you get the idea from that it's normal, or even sort of normal, to wind up in an institution after dealing with a spouse's death? Does this happen all the time where you are?

When I worked as a civilian for a So. Calif. police force 25 years ago, the cops would get complaints about crazy street people acting out in the neighborhood, but physicians would not usually not admit anybody unless they were clearly nuts, so the crazy guy would go back to the neighborhood and the cops would go nuts dealing with multiple calls about this crazy guy doing his crazy thing in the neighborhood. So the cops learned to tell the crazy guy when they picked him that they were going to take him to the wizard, who would do all sorts of wonderful things for him, getting the guy all excited, so that when they arrived at the hospital and met the doctor, the crazy guy would blurt out "Are you the wizard?", and the doctor would say, Oh yeah, and admit the guy to the psych ward, which would get him off the streets for a while.

Actually seeing the earth from space and all that shit is no big deal. I had a similar experience years ago, similar to that opening for Universal Pictures where one is traveling around the outside of the globe up close.

Of course, it was the reverse with Debbie; she became ill after having institutionalized herself (i.e., in Mother Divine). Also, even if you hadn't gotten it backward, Debbie *had just lost her husband*, for crying out loud. How many of this 2000 will have just lost their spouses when they "re-enter reality"? Honestly, I think some on this forum have never managed to fully reenter reality themselves after their TM stint.

You know, Rick, if *Curtis* is willing to give the guy a bit of benefit of the doubt on this, you might want to think about whether your image of MMY is a little twisted. I once had a vision of the moon in space--*very* different quality from any picture I've ever seen-- during sutra practice. If *I* could have had such a perception, I should think MMY could have had one of the earth in space. For that matter, we've been seeing photos of the earth in space for, what, 40 years. Nobody has to "actually see it" to call up a clear mental image of it whenever they want.

I doubt if MMY intended to teach that other people's 'reality' is more real than their own, but many people behave in that manner.

Definition of Psychosis Psychosis: In the general sense, a mental illness that markedly interferes with a person's capacity to meet life's everyday demands. In a specific sense, it refers to a thought disorder in which reality testing is grossly impaired. Symptoms can include seeing, hearing, smelling, or tasting things that are not there; paranoia; and delusional thoughts. Depending on the condition underlying the psychotic symptoms, symptoms may be constant or they may come and go. Psychosis can occur as a result of brain injury or disease, and is seen particularly in schizophrenia and bipolar disordersDiagnosis is by observation and interview. http://www.medterms.com/script/main/art.asp?articlekey=5110 > These can accompany > severe mood disorders, but I doubt Debbie had that > diagnosis. You don't think she could have been clinically depressed? Would a suicide attempt be enough to have someone committed? Also, when someone is committed, as I understand it, it's because they aren't willing or able to sign themselves into the hospital. The original quote from Rick Ross's board says her parents "had her admitted," not "committed." That may be simply imprecise use of terminology; or it may reflect that her parents convinced (or pressured) her to sign herself in. It's possible she was clear-headed enough (if she were seriously depressed, say) to recognize that her parents were right and that she needed to be hospitalized (in which case she would not have had to have been psychotic per se). Because her parents apparently played a major role, we're assuming they went through the full-dress legal procedure and therefore that she must have been psychotic. But that's on the basis of an at least second-hand informal report, something the person says she was told (no source mentioned). The last three sentences of that post give a pretty clear idea of this person's agenda: "The Inside TM-myth about Debbie's condition, 'Doug and Debbie were soul mates. They were totally connected as one soul in two bodies. When Doug died, Debbie no longer had a purpose for living' "In reality, IMHO, once the guru got the bucks.. he had no further use for her. "The individuality was erroded [sic] so slowly & insidiously. The highly honored devotees at the top (of any cultic group) totally surrendered their sense of self to the leader.." It certainly sounds as though the "Inside TM-myth" is that Debbie was depressed, as I suggested. (I suspect that if she "surrendered her sense of self" to anybody, it was to Henning himself.) In any case, I wouldn't put it past this person to try to make it sound as though her illness were *so* bad her parents had to commit her, without actually using the term "committed." This person may have no idea of the circumstances, and hence neither do we. What th f*ck is she doing on a long > program? She's going to relapse again if someone > doesn't know what they are doing.

I can almost (almost) assure you that she has/had symptoms of psychosis, the most common psychological disorder from too much TM and TM-siddhis program. In fact all the cases of "madness" from TM that I know about are experiences of psychosis. Also, you only get commited for psychotic symtoms.

I never discussed the shock thing with Margret, but did discuss her opinion that TM people spent more time in an altered state than people in other groups. This lead to more depersonalization problems and dissociative disorders for the TM people whe worked with then she found in groups that did not spend so much time in trance states. If that is true then the batch that will emerge from the domes in a year of that massive immersion program should be like a scene from an old Thriller video. Or maybe they will all float out in formation proving MMY's dramatic claims to be more than the ravings of a pitch man guru.

Just as a question, do you really think that even in the TM movement they'll be able to find 2000 people who have so little going for them in their lives that they'll be able to put those lives on hold for a year for a measly 500 bucks a month? I'm not convinced they'll "hit the numbers." But if they do, I'm concerned about the long- term effects on the 2000 losers who do take them up on this offer. What are they going to do upon re-entering reality after a year of essentially being institutionalized? I'm thinking Debbie Henning X 2000.

There is no supervision of people during long rounding or courses for psychological problems. First of all, nobody is trained to recognized decompensation of an ego and a breakdown of defense mechanisms. And if this is recognized the person is sent home from the course or institutionalized and the TMO washes there hands of them. Not good stuff at all. Decompensating people need professional treatment by trained people with clinical experience. Levi's death at MIU was contributed by the incompetance of a psychologist (I hope the Iowa Board of Psychology or whomever is responsible for licensure in Iowa brought appropriate sanctions against this fool) failing to understand and take appropriate measures with a floridly psychotic student. This is not hindsight, but simple clinical experience recognizing when a fellow psychologist does not understand what they are doing and totally out of their depth. What interferes here is not only lack of clinical experience with psychotics but also the unfortunate cult agenda that believes, a priori, that no ill can come about through any TM program-period. So people in need of psychological help (another TMO forbidden topic) are not recognized to be in need of help and by the time it becomes obvious, it's almost too late. > > > > > > To subscribe, send a message to: > [EMAIL PROTECTED] > > Or go to: > http://groups.yahoo.com/group/FairfieldLife/ > and click 'Join This Group!' > Yahoo!

I think it's a bad idea, in any context. I know that this puts me at odds with *lots* of spiritual traditions, but that *is* my considered opinion. Allowing spiritual teachers or spiritual seekers to get used to other people paying for their lives is IMO always bad for their evolution in the long run. Whereas encouraging them to support themselves is always good for their evolution in the long run. Just my opinion. If people want to "round" for a long period of time, they should work two or three jobs and raise the money to pay for it themselves. Such people I would respect. But I don't respect those who allow others to work so that they don't have to.

E.G, getting someone to take a few minutes extra silence at the end of TM if they feel anxioius or upset, rather than jumping up and running around in circles screaming "I'm having an anxiety attack!!!"

Just as a question, do you really think that even in the TM movement they'll be able to find 2000 people who have so little going for them in their lives that they'll be able to put those lives on hold for a year for a measly 500 bucks a month? I'm not convinced they'll "hit the numbers." But if they do, I'm convinced of the long- term effects on the 2000 losers who do take them up on this offer. What are they going to do upon re-entering reality after a year of essentially being institutionalized? I'm thinking Debbie Henning X 2000.
