Re: [FairfieldLife] Re: Blues

[Ravi Yogi]

Dear Robin,

I'm no fan of cults including Osho, MMY or Ammachi but you couldn't be more 
wrong.

You are expecting everyone to be at your level of reality and that's not 
possible and is irrational.

Cults serve a definite purpose in the spiritual evolution.

The so called devotees in their love, trust and faith of the master will 
inevitably find their true center and meaning.

Because it's not the master that transforms but the love, faith and trust.

As in any venture there will be a lot who don't make it, some gurus who 
manipulate, some devotees who get scarred but you can't condemn the methods.

I look at Osho and I feel great love, it was his teachings that single handedly 
led me to be an individual myself. I remember when I first read him in 1998 and 
I would be in bliss just reading him.

He didn't make me into a zombie or unquestioning devotee. I certainly don't 
agree with what he had to say.

His greatest message according to me was to not trust any Guru or authority or 
any teaching unless it made sense to your own intrinsic values.

There's not many like him who have walked this planet. Jiddu is another one 
with his own unique style of not depending on any teacher, guru or belief.

As far as I can see your assessment of him reflects your own scars with 
negative associations of a cult.

Love,
Ravi

 RESPONSE: OSHO gives himself away as a weird, deluded, monomaniac by 1. the 
obsequious and knowing laughter of the audience, who obviously are OSHO 
devotees and 2. by the natural and normal human beingness of the host, Mike 
Wolfe, who seems so attractive compared to the stiff and dogmatic OSHO, who 
appears to be in a mystical trance.

If someone's influence is appropriate and beneficial, then each person in the 
audience would retain a sense of individuality; they don't. They all laugh in 
unison, and their laughter is not the spontaneous and discriminating 
recognition of the wisdom of their master; it is the obedient reflex and 
submission to the mere acoustic of the voice and context of their Master, who 
must be perceived, by the fact of his enlightenment, to be in a perpetually 
ironic relationship to the ignorant Mike Wolfe. Whereas, viewed from eternity, 
I deem Mike Wolfe closer to reality and therefore to truth than OSHO—and even 
more so to the uncritical persons who are hanging on his every word. And, in 
their passive orientation to the assumed perfection of their master, they 
become a kind of collective consciousness which paralyzes their individual 
existential selves.

Disturbing video: OSHO is a madman, who thinks he has realized the truth. But 
his manner of speaking and the coldness and mystic alienness of his physiognomy 
forces a negative verdict on the guy. The man has put himself in a kind of coma 
from his self-grandiosity.  

Maharishi seems a million times more normal than this guy.

Note: That should be a capital G for God, not small g: god at the very end of

Re: [FairfieldLife] Girl with the Faberge Ass

[Denise Evans]

I am actually putting my new plan together...my new holistic plan.  So, I'm not 
sure.  But, turning 49 last month and finding out yesterday I have Rheumatoid 
Arthritis and no adrenal function and an overall allergic body is the final 
straw.  The stress has been so extreme over the last 10 years I can't even 
describe it.  And I thought I was in constant pain because that's what growing 
old is supposed to feel like.  My life as a corporate superstar is over.  Over. 
 There will be no going back.  New diet, new plan, new everything.  I'm 
surrendering.  Not a word that I particularly like.    

I want to look like Maria Bello by the time I'm 50.  That's my goal and I have 
confidence that meditating will help me get there.

Of the two types of potentiality, the first is natural, and awaits 
actualization by a force of like nature to the subject: thus semen is developed 
into an animal, and the young grow adult. The second awaits actualization by a 
higher principle; that wood can be carved into a chest or that a blind man can 
be granted his sight are beyond the natural potentialities of the subjects 
concerned.

This difference, observed in the physical world, applies also to the human 
mind. Its natural potentiality is to be lit up by the ability to discern 
meanings, an active and inborn power which is at work when we are in the act of 
understanding. The knowledge which comes is limited to the things we are 
acquainted with through our senses, and to the objects which can be imagined; 
it cannot comprehend out final end. We must deal with them expertly, yet a 
desire to know more remains unsatisfied. How many things are scarcely hinted at 
by sense-knowledge; their existence may be suspected, but not their nature, for 
the world of spirits is vastly different from the world of bodies. Even in the 
material world there are many things which escape us; sometimes we may have an 
inkling of their secrets, sometimes not even that.

Hence the discontent and the desire within the mind for more perfect knowledge. 
Now an innate desire cannot be aimless. Yet this natural longing can be 
satisfied only if the mind be rendered completely in act, and so at peace, by 
an active principle more sublime than anything in the world about us. It is a 
desire to seek cause when effect is perceived. Whatever the situation, once the 
circumstances are apprehended, the human mind would penetrate into its very 
heart. A native instinct of intelligence will not rest until it reaches the 
first cause, seen in person, not in substitute. He is God, and therefore the 
final aim of rational creatures is nothing short of the vision of god, the 
seeing of his very self.

meanings, an active and inborn power which is at work when we are in the act of 
understanding. The knowledge which comes is limited to the things we are 
acquainted with through our senses, and to the objects which can be imagined; 
it cannot comprehend out final end. We must deal with them expertly, yet a 
desire to know more remains unsatisfied. How many things are scarcely hinted at 
by sense-knowledge; their existence may be suspected, but not their nature, for 
the world of spirits is vastly different from the world of bodies. Even in the 
material world there are many things which escape us; sometimes we may have an 
inkling of their secrets, sometimes not even that.

Hence the discontent and the desire within the mind for more perfect knowledge. 
Now an innate desire cannot be aimless. Yet this natural longing can be 
satisfied only if the mind be rendered completely in act, and so at peace, by 
an active principle more sublime than anything in the world about us. It is a 
desire to seek cause when effect is perceived. Whatever the situation, once the 
circumstances are apprehended, the human mind would penetrate into its very 
heart. A native instinct of intelligence will not rest until it reaches the 
first cause, seen in person, not in substitute. He is God, and therefore the 
final aim of rational creatures is nothing short of the vision of god, the 
seeing of his very self.

I'm glad that one of the drama queens finally posted this.
Given the way the Yahoo web reader works when sending to 
an email address, I didn't have a copy of it, and not
remembering what I actually said, found myself wondering
WTF both Bob and Drama Zebra could possibly be describing.
Reading what I actually wrote, I still am. The only thing
I'm not sure of at this point is whether Bob is crazier 
than Robin. 

Robin, I explained myself earlier in post 
http://groups.yahoo.com/group/FairfieldLife/message/293919
and you chose not to hear it. I suggest that you reread it,
while looking up the definition of the word "image" at the
same time you're looking up the phrase "drama queen."
You're more than a little hazy on both. 

Given the extreme nature of the stuff you write below,
I do apologize for anything I have written about you in
the past. In doing so I assumed that you were actually 
sane, and that it was appropriate to poke fun at you as
if that were true. It now appears that this is not the 
case. I won't make the same mistake again. Have a nice
life. Buh-bye.

Bob,

Can't really tell whether you honestly got your buttons
pushed by my jab at Robin or not, but don't push too far
on this or I may have to reveal on FFL that I got the
image of Robin dressing up in women's clothing before
posting from a private exchange with Curtis. I wouldn't
have thought of it myself, but the minute he mentioned
it I realized it just nailed the hyperbolic drama queen-
ness of his writing.

The fact that you don't think so makes me wonder about you
far more than the fact that you see anything in Robin
Carlson that someone could possibly be envious of.

As for "something original," it wasn't.

Barry

Commentary:
1. This is an outright lie. No such photo of Robin exists. Robin has never 
dressed up as a woman. Robin is not gay.

2. But this assumes a significance that Barry realizes in sending this e-mail 
to Bob Price: namely, that Robin has played the ironic game with Barry, in 
response to Barry having characterized his posts to Curtis as being like a gay 
man trying to pick up a straight man (Curtis).

3. So the whole tone of my response to Barry's characterization of me as a 
literal drama queen has the appearance of a straight male totally comfortable 
with being accused falsely of having homo-erotic designs on Curtis. I played 
with this over and over again, taunting and mocking Barry.

4.Therefore, should I really be a homosexual, I am: 1. deceiving Bob Price and 
everyone else at FFL 2. Disguising and concealing my real sexual preference, 
and therefore acting as if I am ashamed of my homosexuality. Which of course 
does a disservice to gays everywhere. And makes me an enemy of Lady Gaga when I 
have professed my ardent love for her. It would be interesting to know what it 
is like to be gay; but I am not gay, so I will never know this experience.

5. For Curtis to say there is a photo which undermines and exposes this 
dissimulation [mine] is to say in effect: That Robin guy, he is a liar and a 
charlatan. He is taking you for a ride, Bob Price. I [Barry] am here to have 
mercy on you, to rescue you from your false perception of the guy. Here is the 
proof.

6. Notice how authoritative and patronizing Barry is; as if he once had 
influence over Bob Price, and he is scolding him, upbraiding him, for his 
treasonous actions (the Loon Tale). Bob Price, presumably, would have to make 
an abject apology to Barry in order to restore the status quo ante—in terms of 
this friendship.

7. Now either Curtis lied in telling Barry that he had this smoking gun 
demonstrating Robin's real sexual identity; or else Barry used the good name of 
Curtis in order to convince Bob Price of the credence of his (Barry's) take on 
Robin: that indeed Barry was right onto Robin—as no one else was at FFL. It is 
the voice of someone who has suffered to be misunderstood, even as he knows he 
could justify himself at any moment. He chooses to share this secret with Bob 
Price, and in doing so he makes it seem as if he has, in effect, done Bob Price 
a big favour, delivering him from the deceitful behaviour of Robin. Meanwhile, 
in an act of inexplicable magnanimity and turning the other cheek, he has let 
Robin jest with him (Barry), holding back his knowledge of the real situation.

So then, folks, I consider this behaviour on Barry's part—and I would demand, 
if he ever posts on FFL again, that he, for Curtis's sake and for clearing the 
air, admit to a deliberate falsehood, and an act of extreme desperation 
(although we shall just leave it at the confession that he lied 
absolutely)—unworthy of a human being who seeks any credibility in this matter 
of personal integrity. He has forfeited any assumption of his good will here at 
FFL—driven as he was by his rage that Bob Price evidently began to turn away 
from Barry, and recognize that Robin was Barry's (or became this) enemy.

I would also ask that you, Curtis, disavow any connection with the precise 
contents of this e-mail that Barry sent to Bob Price: that you never told Barry 
you were in possession of such a photo, that you know of no such photo, and 
that therefore, in reading this e-mail now, you are just as shocked as I am. I 
don't say you need to take your friend to the woodshed—you won't be doing 
that—ever; but if you allow Barry to think that he can turn you into a false 
witness to the truth, then you had better be careful, because that is not what 
a friend would ever do. Own the truth here, Curtis: I demand this. And if you 
don't I will have to draw my own conclusions.

Of course, although I accept implicitly your word—already—that you are an 
innocent party to all this, I nevertheless know that with your power over 
Barry, he would be willing, under obedience to you, to martyr himself on y

Re: Conversation between Curtis & Robin

Just gotta ask. Is there anyone else here who thinks that Robin
dresses up in women's clothing before writing these kinds of
posts to Curtis? After a quick skim, the impression I'm getting
is just WAY too similar to posts written by drag queens trying
to pick up straight guys.

Dear Barry Wright:

What pray tell were you going to "reveal" at FFL beyond this (what you have 
written above) which would deter Bob Price ever again posting anything 
resembling The Loon Tale?

If you have said what you say here, then everything you have—since sending that 
e-mail to Bob Price—said in explanation of that e-mail seems weaker and less 
specific than what you say here. And yet your e-mail to Bob Price (ZT) implies 
some further and devastating revelation (image Curtis has of Robin dressing as 
a woman) which will confirm the insinuation that Robin is gay.

It isn't then the "drama queen" idea—which you contend is your intent  in your 
follow-up  explanation for sending the ZT; it is the drag queen idea. One is 
metaphorical; the other literal and real. How can a mere metaphor (as you 
explained was all you meant in your e-mail to Bob Price) be used as a deterrent 
to Bob Price further hurting you with his posts about you?

Drag queens trying to pick up straight guys: this is something entirely other 
than being accused of acting like a 'drama queen'.

The implication is clear: I am trying to pick up Curtis.

Your e-mail to Bob Price is an attempt to authenticate—in some material way—the 
characterization of me that constitutes this post. I am gay. Or at least there 
is a strong basis to suspect that I am gay.

Now, I ask you, Barry, to deny the obvious meaning I have put upon this 
post—and its relevance to and congruity with the threatening e-mail you sent to 
Bob Price.

You are a coward and a liar, Barry.

Robin

joys of transcendental meditation. "Bliss," Lynch sings. "Which is the result 
of the laws which govern physical behaviour merging with the highest levels of 
spirit and together manifesting the magical and mystical level of cosmic 
awareness." Say what you like, you don't get that on The X Factor.

I ask what possessed him to sing the songs, and he chuckles in delight. "That 
sounds like a value judgement: 'What the hell were you thinking, buddy?'" He 
pauses to consider. "It's a bunch of stuff. You might get someone else, an 
actor, to play a role. But then there are some roles where you think: 'I want 
to be that person. I want to go into that world.' So I wanted to try. I wanted 
to see whether I could nail it, assuming I could overcome a lot of fear and 
embarrassment and find a safe place to work from. But yes, there's a lot of 
fear involved. It's very fearful."

Is fear an important motivating factor? "No," he says firmly. "Well, in a way 
it is."

Certainly, it has been a constant drumbeat in all his work. Films such as 
Eraserhead, Blue Velvet, Lost Highway or Mulholland Drive come fuelled by a 
fearful fascination with the unknown, with what lies beneath, with a peculiarly 
American strain of darkness. As a child, he says, he was intrigued by the black 
pitch that oozed out of the cherry trees and wondered what went on behind the 
white picket fences. His sister, he adds, was frightened of peas. "And I can 
understand that, because a pea is a complex thing. It has this hard shell, but 
then it's soft inside. It's the dual nature that made it unsettling for her."

Writing a song is much the same as writing a film, he explains. It's all about 
chasing ideas; about telling a story or letting the story tell you. And this, 
it turns out, is about as 

[FairfieldLife] Chakras

[shainm307]

Maybe there was a reason why the Chakras were ignored.  The vast majority of 
metators in the movement have only 2 colors, Indigo and Violet. Ungrounded 
spoace cadets are happy, dependant, and somewhat more eaisly controlled.  
H. YOu are not going to walk on water without all your colors either.  
People with  serious colr problems, are not understood by others all their 
colors or different colors.  Those with the same unbalanced colors tend to seek 
out those with same.Their life is focused their spiritual beliefs and not much 
else.  They don't understand people with normal colors, esspecially their 
spiritual outlooks. Manifestation of the basic things in life, like money, 
become hard to come by.  Their normal defences are down and can be more eaisly 
persuaded of things they mioght normally take acceptance to.  Why was something 
so important, and so simple to take care of, be left out entirely in the 
teachings of the movement.  So much so that, when talked about, or questioned 
about around those with so called rank, that they get a little more than 
defencewive about it?  Do you know how to keep all of your colors every day.  
It only takes 30 seconds.  I am only touching on the highlights here.  Lets

[FairfieldLife] Re: Colonoscopy

[maskedzebra]

Re: Colonoscopy

I can't imagine that many of the TB TM old timers on
this forum have any problem with colonoscopy. After
all, they've got their heads so far up their asses
already that all they have to do to perform a
colonoscopy is turn their heads and look around. :-)

Dear Barry,

I selected this one post of yours which represents a classic and inimitable 
Barry post—and which reveals everything about you which I would ever want to 
say. That any adult normal human being would write what you have written here, 
knowing how vulnerable each person is in contemplating having this form of 
examination, it puts you beyond the pale, Barry. No person I know would not, 
before they wanted to gratify their lust for ridiculing those they look down 
upon, experience, at least faintly, the actual context of experience which 
surrounds and defines what having a Colonoscopy is all about. In other words, 
you would have to be obtusely insensitive and filled with hatred not to feel 
some ambivalence about exploiting this to show your contempt for other human 
beings. I remember, when I first read it (October 10) and saying to myself: 
There: that is the signature of Barry Wright. How appalling, how shocking, how 
tragic. And yet no one on FFL chose to draw their attention to this. Well, I 
remembered it, Barry, and it fits perfectly with your attempted blackmail of 
Bob Price.

Hey Barry Wright:

". . .but don't push too far on this or I may have to reveal on FFL. . ."

So, if Bob Price *had* "push(ed) this too far", what was it you were going to 
do, Barry?

You are threatening to "reveal" something about Robin if Bob Price continues to 
push your buttons. No?

Why did you send this e-mail, Barry, if it only has the meaning you choose now 
to give it?

Pray tell us your intent in sending such an e-mail. Was it not to get Bob Price 
to shut up?

Get to the point, Barry: "I got the image of Robin dressing up in women's 
clothing before posting from a private exchange with Curtis".

In what sense can your ex post facto interpretation of this e-mail possibly 
account for why you would send this e-mail to Bob Price in the first place?

It seems now there is no photo—perhaps I was too literal here; however until 
you explain why you sent this e-mail to Bob Price, I stand behind every word I 
wrote re: The FFL Zimmerman Telegram. Even eliminating the fact of an actual 
physical object which proves I am gay, there is explicit intention here to say 
you have proof that I am—gay.

And you are using some kind of information, that only you have, in order to 
silence Bob Price—else you will expose the shameful deceit of Robin.

"But don't push too far on this or. . .": This is a warning to Bob Price that 
you will alter the present status of Robin at FFL—because of some objective 
evidence you have which contradicts Robin's claim to be straight and not gay.

You utterly fail—not just suspiciously, but culpably—to explain yourself in 
your post of today.

You are entirely insincere and devious in all that you say here to me. You are 
never willing to take your chances on trusting in the truth to get you through 
the next moment.

I categorically reject and condemn the blatant dishonesty of what you have said.

But let's keep this fight going, Barry. I'm up for it.

And if you can ever catch me in a lie, or anything that even begins to resemble 
what you are doing in this Zimmerman Telegram, or in this most recent post, 
then I will repudiate everything I have said about you, and stand in judgment 
for being a fucking idiot and and an out-and-out bullshitter.

But I am not, Barry. 

The cruelty in the final analysis, Barry, it is directed against your self.

Re: [FairfieldLife] Inelia Benz: New Interview on Buddha at the Gas Pump - 11/03/2011

[Bhairitu]

Hey Rick, boost your audio levels a bit when you master.  It's too low.  
This is a big problem on YouTube.  Since they recode anyway they need to 
standardize the audio levels.  Maybe when the kids that run it grow up 
they'll know how to write that kind of code. :-D

There are a few articles out there by audio engineers with 
recommendations on how to prepare audio for YouTube.   Just do a search.

Re: [FairfieldLife] Re: Steve Jobs diet quirks (cancer)

[Bhairitu]

Let's hope you don't get cancer.  It's a terrible way to go.  My dad had 
it also but neither me nor my 14.5 years older sister has not contracted 
it so far.  I'll turn 65 next month and being barraged by companies 
wanting to sell me Medicare supplement insurance.  The commercial 
coverage I've had the last 11 years is about the same as Medicare Part 
A.  So why should I bother?  But the rest of society is programmed into 
believing that you must have all this extra coverage.  Plus putting a 
lot of unnatural chemicals in your body is a good thing.  You know the 
stuff that has a big page full of disclaimers and side effects on the 
bottle or pamphlet you get.   And people here worry about some metals in 
ayurvedic treatments.

The neighbor told me the trip of her husband via ambulance only cost 
them $200 with their HMO coverage and it would have been $20K otherwise. 
What! How can they get away with that?  Well actually I've heard of 
cases that when presented with such a bill the person just offered to 
pay them a little more than what insurance would have and their portion 
and it was accepted.  This is a nation of greed and scams.

Another thing is not to be afraid of death.  As long as you are afraid 
of death for profit health care has you by the balls.

remembering what I actually said, found myself wondering
WTF both Bob and Drama Zebra could possibly be describing.

and you chose not to hear it. I suggest that you reread it,
while looking up the definition of the word "image" at the

You're more than a little hazy on both.

Tart, I definitely relate to what you're saying.  For one thing these
particular exchanges are usually no more than three or four paragraphs. 
Second they are less about philosophy and more about  relating to one
another.  Sort of like when a  speaker talks about something personal
rather than something theorical.  Suddenly everybody perks up.  The
Barry part of it doesn't much interest me.  I am enjoying the dynamic of
the dialogue, if you will excuse the buzzword.

It was a wild time for me, all those years.  More likely I might have
run into you in Ashcroft on the trail to the hot springs. But no telling
if I was in my right mind, or on LSD.  Make that "waking state" mind.

A story I love about SBS, when he was with his teacher, as a young student 
along with all the others. There was some special saint in town and all the 
boys were clamoring to go, and the teacher said, "good, go".  SBS stayed 
behind, said it seems pointless -- here was infinite knowledge right in there 
in the ashram, what more could be gained by going to another saint?

If you have found what you need, where is the motivation to run around to 
others? If you have not found what you need, why are you still there?

I speak up to Barry when it is my business.  You are joining the 
expectation to meddle in other people's relationships bus.  And coming from 
a guy who delights in not living up to other people's expectations here, I 
find that a bit surprising.  You have cosmic names for Fing with people 
here, but it is the same deal.  Do you really need me up your butt every 
time you run the Ravi routine on someone here?  Don't we all have enough to 
focus on in our own interactions here? 

As a convicted felon, put to death for treasonous acts against his

Right on Robin.

Bob,

Can't really tell whether you honestly got your buttons
pushed by my jab at Robin or not, but don't push too far
on this or I may have to reveal on FFL that I got the
image of Robin dressing up in women's clothing before
posting from a private exchange with Curtis. I wouldn't
have thought of it myself, but the minute he mentioned
it I realized it just nailed the hyperbolic drama queen-
ness of his writing.

The fact that you don't think so makes me wonder about you
far more than the fact that you see anything in Robin
Carlson that someone could possibly be envious of.

As for "something original," it wasn't.

Barry

Commentary:
1. This is an outright lie. No such photo of Robin exists. Robin has never 
dressed up as a woman. Robin is not gay.

2. But this assumes a significance that Barry realizes in sending this e-mail 
to Bob Price: namely, that Robin has played the ironic game with Barry, in 
response to Barry having characterized his posts to Curtis as being like a gay 
man trying to pick up a straight man (Curtis).

3. So the whole tone of my response to Barry's characterization of me as a 
literal drama queen has the appearance of a straight male totally comfortable 
with being accused falsely of having homo-erotic designs on Curtis. I played 
with this over and over again, taunting and mocking Barry.

4.Therefore, should I really be a homosexual, I am: 1. deceiving Bob Price and 
everyone else at FFL 2. Disguising and concealing my real sexual preference, 
and therefore acting as if I am ashamed of my homosexuality. Which of course 
does a disservice to gays everywhere. And makes me an enemy of Lady Gaga when I 
have professed my ardent love for her. It would be interesting to know what it 
is like to be gay; but I am not gay, so I will never know this experience.

5. For Curtis to say there is a photo which undermines and exposes this 
dissimulation [mine] is to say in effect: That Robin guy, he is a liar and a 
charlatan. He is taking you for a ride, Bob Price. I [Barry] am here to have 
mercy on you, to rescue you from your false perception of the guy. Here is the 
proof.

6. Notice how authoritative and patronizing Barry is; as if he once had 
influence over Bob Price, and he is scolding him, upbraiding him, for his 
treasonous actions (the Loon Tale). Bob Price, presumably, would have to make 
an abject apology to Barry in order to restore the status quo ante—in terms of 
this friendship.

7. Now either Curtis lied in telling Barry that he had this smoking gun 
demonstrating Robin's real sexual identity; or else Barry used the good name of 
Curtis in order to convince Bob Price of the credence of his (Barry's) take on 
Robin: that indeed Barry was right onto Robin—as no one else was at FFL. It is 
the voice of someone who has suffered to be misunderstood, even as he knows he 
could justify himself at any moment. He chooses to share this secret with Bob 
Price, and in doing so he makes it seem as if he has, in effect, done Bob Price 
a big favour, delivering him from the deceitful behaviour of Robin. Meanwhile, 
in an act of inexplicable magnanimity and turning the other cheek, he has let 
Robin jest with him (Barry), holding back his knowledge of the real situation.

So then, folks, I consider this behaviour on Barry's part—and I would demand, 
if he ever posts on FFL again, that he, for Curtis's sake and for clearing the 
air, admit to a deliberate falsehood, and an act of extreme desperation 
(although we shall just leave it at the confession that he lied 
absolutely)—unworthy of a human being who seeks any credibility in this matter 
of personal integrity. He has forfeited any assumption of his good will here at 
FFL—driven as he was by his rage that Bob Price evidently began to turn away 
from Barry, and recognize that Robin was Barry's (or became this) enemy.

I would also ask that you, Curtis, disavow any connection with the precise 
contents of this e-mail that Barry sent to Bob Price: that you never told Barry 
you were in possession of such a photo, that you know of no such photo, and 
that therefore, in reading this e-mail now, you are just as shocked as I am. I 
don't say you need to take your friend to the woodshed—you won't be doing 
that—ever; but if you allow Barry to think that he can turn you into a false 
witness to the truth, then you had better be careful, because that is not what 
a friend would ever do. Own the truth here, Curtis: I demand this. And if you 
don't I will have to draw my own conclusions.

Of course, although I accept implicitly your word—already—that you

Yee haw for allergies!  Bring em on!

I  and another family member have had a theory and I forgot how and where we 
came up with it at this moment. People who tend not to get sick, appear more 
prone to cancers. I thought about my family members who always claimed of not 
getting head colds, allergies, etc., and each one of them had gotten cancer in 
their years. There is something to that. I am sure. 
Now if I get cancer, that whole theory goes out the window. LOL

not hearing from you {as yet], I dismiss your part in this with an almost 
perfect confidence.

Re: [FairfieldLife] Re: Steve Jobs diet quirks (cancer)

[Bhairitu]

I haven't kept up on it but back in the late 1970s I looked into the 
cancer work of Dr.  Kelly and what is now HealthExcel and run by a 
former TM teacher Bill Wolcott.  They divided cancers groups by hard 
tumor and soft tumors.  Different body types were prone to getting one 
or the other.

BTW, another doctor I went to in the 1980s who was not at all into 
alternative medicine told me that the allergist he shared an office with 
once remarked that almost none of his patients ever got cancer.  He 
believed that was because people who have allergies have strong immune 
systems since allergies are often the reaction of the immune system on 
some allergen.  Hence the strong immune system got rid of cancer cells 
before they could do anything.

 My brother was never into anything new age but came down with colon
 cancer at age 52.  The last few months he was into trying anything but I
 knew it was too late.  Now if he had just eaten the diet he was eating
 in his last few months he may have never gotten cancer in the first place.

Hey Curtis - I meant everyone who's giving you a hard time actually love you. 
So definitely emotional scarring is to be expected :-)

Look Bob didn't even bother protesting to Barry about his actions but he felt 
OK to attack you for your actions - that should tell you a lot.

[Ravi Yogi]

Heart only feels whereas intellect tries to analyze it. So if you feel good and 
your intellect says endorphins - there's no dichotomy. You can enjoy both. 
Usually people try to deny or suppress - no need to.

It's supposed to.   It predominately strikes older people.  Prostate
Cancer, for example is in youngsters but doesn't flourish until the
testosterone/DHT level drops below a certain level.  Cancer is Nature's way
of saying you should have died of starvation, plague or some such because
since you no longer reproduce, you're no longer a value to the species.

[curtisdeltablues]

Well anyone who expects to give me the hard one had better at least start with 
a round of drinks and a nice dinner, and not some shitty mall bar dinner with 
an unlimited buffet that everyone sneezes on UNDER the sneeze guard, but a 
place where they bring you a salad on a plate with its own little fork so you 
don't have to use it again for the surf and turf which is the minimum dinner 
required for me to budge on my no-dudes rule. 

Much appreciated.  I'm a bit wound up today and I wouldn't mind a nice dinner 
even if the desert involved a bit of the tube steak or as we like to call it in 
Virginia, the cream filled Robert E, Lee.

Just say'n can a brotha get a table dance?

Hey Curtis - I meant everyone who's giving you a hard time actually love you. 
So definitely emotional scarring is to be expected :-)

Look Bob didn't even bother protesting to Barry about his actions but he felt 
OK to attack you for your actions - that should tell you a lot.

"A word of warning: Many studies (the movement has tried to suppress) have 
found that approximately 40% of the people who practice TM develop adverse 
effects."


This was in the link you sent..tee hee...this is too high a percentage to mess 
with and I am NOT going to chant a hindu seed mantra which is what the one for 
my age group is.  It is also  one of the words in the mantra I received from 
Amma.  I'm letting it goI won't pick up the TM topic again.  Other methods 
resonate better.

[obbajeeba]

It is a little bit more complicated than that. Food turns to glucose. Most 
cancer patients start to lose weight, wasting disease, so one would think that 
in itself would stop the cancer or slow it down.  
Anti angiogenisis,  seems to be a promising exploration, yet not anywhere near 
where it should be, a cure. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Angiogenesis

Cancer sucks.

Re: [FairfieldLife] Siddha Medicine , Navapashanam & Healing

I like to tell myself I'm meditating when I'm swimming...breath in, breath out 
for 20-30 minuteseverything else falls away as the focus in water is making 
sure one can breathe.  It does leave me in a deeply relaxed place...but I 
figure those are the endorphins kicking in :)

Nothing.  You get a "mantra" which in ™ is the name
of some Hindu god or goddess, and repeat it over and
over during your 20-minute meditation, coming back to
it whenever your mind strays, which is often, because
it's usually pretty boring doing this.  It's supposed to
provide what TMers call "deep rest."  This is deeper than
your average garden-variety rest, because they say so
and what more proof do you need?  Seriously, there have
been some studies but most have to shown to have been
fixed in some way.  If you want a list of the ™ mantras,
they're available somewhere on the Web.

Because they could make more $$ in the old days
by keeping it secret, silly.  Of course you can
learn it from a book.  Only self-important pompous
fools would try to convince you you needed to shell 
out a huge amount of $$ to learn a "secret word."  
Don't believe 'em, Denise.

Plenty of people have breached the secret, and I'm pretty sure
you can find it on the Web.  Pick whichever mantra appeals to
you, sit down and repeat it for 20 minutes, coming back as 
necessary, and voila.  You're a meditator.

Re: [FairfieldLife] Re: Siddha Medicine , Navapashanam & Healing

[Denise Evans]

I'm reviewing backwards and deleting so just got to thisI won't be doing 
TM.  I have been exploring the concept of what "separating the message from the 
messenger" feels like.  When it comes to "spirituality" I simply can't separate 
these fully enough to sign up with anyone or any group who claims to know the 
answer or have the answer.  The  "hypocritical" and "hypocrisy" tapes start to 
run in my brain.  

Objectively, I think TM would greatly benefit me as a technique...but I can't 
get past the rest of it if I am truly honest with myself...so if I did shell 
out the money, it would be wasted.  

I have never believed that there is only one way, however, and there are many 
choices of meditation technique available.  Thanks for answering.

These are incredibly frustrating questions to try to
answer for a TMer, because the bottom line is, you
can't grasp why it's a "secret" until you learn it
yourself (and not everyone does even then). And of
course that sounds like total B.S. The problem is
that unlikely as it seems, it's true.

The nature of TM is such that it can't be learned
properly from a book. There have been a couple of
books (not by TM teachers) that purported to explain
how it's done, but you'd be *extremely* unlikely to 
pick it up correctly from words on a page. (I'm
talking about the *method* here, not the mantras; 
the mantras are a whole 'nother issue.)

Ah, come on, Denise, that's not fair. We all wish 
everyone could learn it for free. Most of us realize
learning it properly requires a trained teacher,
though, and that trying to explain how it's done
outside the context of standard TM instruction by a
trained teacher is not likely to lead to proper
practice.

I'm making it sound as if TM is *difficult*, but in
fact it's just the opposite; it's easier than you
can imagine. And paradoxically, that's why learning
it requires someone who has been trained to teach
it, because they know how to lead you into the
experience of effortlessness. Every other skill we
learn requires some degree of effort, so the knack
of letting go of all effort is novel and takes a
novel approach to convey.

As ridiculously easy as TM is, it's also easy to fall
into making it more difficult than it is, and then
you don't get the benefits. Unlike most other things
in life, the less you know about the method before
you learn it, the more likely the instruction is to
"click" right from the start.

In a very real sense, by declining to try to explain
TM, we're protecting *your* investment should you ever
decide to learn it from a trained TM teacher.

> Why wouldn't the TMO release the secret, or for that

There really is no specific "secret" that could be
"released," first of all. If there's a "secret," it's
the whole method of instruction, and that requires
training.

Second, most of us here, at least, think the TMO could
have done a more effective job of getting people to
practice TM. But that's a different issue.

I don't expect this to convince you. All I can say is
that I stand behind what I just wrote 100 percent.

I speak up to Barry when it is my business.  You are joining the expectation to 
meddle in other people's relationships bus.  And coming from a guy who delights 
in not living up to other people's expectations here, I find that a bit 
surprising.  You have cosmic names for Fing with people here, but it is the 
same deal.  Do you really need me up your butt every time you run the Ravi 
routine on someone here?  Don't we all have enough to focus on in our own 
interactions here? 

As a convicted felon, put to death for treasonous acts against his government 
once said: "Yo dude, you have a freak'n plank in our own eye, I think I can 
manage with this tiny splinter in mine thank you very much fuggettaboutit!"

Hi Curtis, Thanks for a well-reasoned reply. I already have agreed that there 
is no need for anyone here to say anything about anyone, unless they want to. 
Nonetheless, I was thinking about King Baby's phrase that I quoted when I read 
your response to Bob, and just couldn't see how what you said could ever make 
sense in light of it. You attributing it to burnout is as good an answer as any 
I suppose, though it does seem callous to me. 

I think a lot of people are mystified how you, who seem so socially well 
adjusted and personable and insightful, could be friendly with His Odiousness, 
the self-made pariah of FFL. I figure it is just one of life's many mysteries.

Well, let's see - we've had one Jew-bait post here
today, and another suggesting mass extermination.

But, Bob is being mean? Go figure.

Re: [FairfieldLife] Re: Blues

[Ravi Yogi]

Well I have sparred with Curtis before on this same issue.

I think he, Xeno and tartbrain should raise some children. That will teach them 
that taking a moral, ethical stand against something doesn't equate to not 
loving.

If you really love someone you will also have hesitation getting angry at them.

These guys  don't realize how intellectual, cold, heartless they sound.

I mean Curtis can't say anything to Barry? That means his is a very superficial 
relationship, no love, no feelings.

The same for a lot of liberals - a liberal with kids is perhaps a conservative? 
Or at least an emotionally mature and a rounded person.
