Are you serious? This guy is a fucking maniac. It is not OK to
go around shooting people because they *might* have had a bad
background. He might just as easily have had a proper family
background that's acceptable to you.

You can't really justify shooting someone after the fact once you
find out they aren't as perfect as you. Justice can't work like
that. Someone would have shot him sooner or later sure.. but that
doesn't make it OK.

Yeah that kind of thing happens all the time in singing in Fairfield.  It's 
quite a cultivated community of talented folks.  People show up for fun and wow 
the harmony.  frequently meet for lunch at Revelations to harmony sing.  
Recently a visiting opera singer joined in.  It was amazing grace to hear the 
text of the songs pop out with this guy by nature of his singing.  It was 
incredibly spiritual.  That is Fairfield.

Ex-Followers Demonstrate Against 
TM
 
From Grounding 
the Guru, by Susan Gervasi, City Paper (Washington, DC), 7/13/90; 
14,16.
 
    
More than 800 members of the Maharishi Mahesh Yogi's Transcendental 
Meditation, attending a week-long convention at Washington, DC's 
Omni-Shoreham Hotel in June, faced the protest of members of TM-EX, an informal 
anti-TM group that educates the public about TM and offers exit counseling to 
those who want out of the movement.
 
    
One TM-EX, former 15-year follower Curtis Mailloux, a 33-year-old real estate 
broker from Fairfax, VA, denounced the organization as a cultist religion that 
is exploitative, deceptive, and damaging. Mailloux is a 1979 graduate of 
Maharishi International University, in Fairfield, IA, who in 1985 became head 
of 
TM's Washington Center.
 
    
TM-EXers do not dispute that TM can be an effective relaxation technique, 
though 
they say it is no better than similar relaxation regimens. The danger in TM, 
they say, comes when the discipline takes over the meditators' 
lives.
 
    
TM-EX member Joe Kelley said: When we started we were told it was a simple, 
effortless technique for releasing stress with no religious implications. 
Initially, it was a 20 minute technique. But by taking advanced residence 
courses and other activities, I was effectively made into a Hindu believer, 
said Kelley.
 
    
Former TM teacher Diane Hendel, who has sued the organization for fraud and 
extortion, said the many bizarre mental experiences she had were considered a 
sign of spiritual superiority. I saw little creatures with wings during 
intensive meditation periods, she related. They were like my pets. They'd tell 
me things. She was encouraged to believe that these winged beasties were 
devas -- Hindu spirits of nature. I began not to be able to tell who was a 
person and who was a deva, she said. Hendel sought counseling, eventually quit 
meditating, and left the movement.
 
    
Mailloux said involvement in the movement becomes a prison of specialness. 
Especially as a leader in the movement, there's no way you can leave this group 
and be [regarded by other devotees as] OK or leave with dignity... I was only 
special as a nervous system which is a 'generator of purity,' not as an 
individual.
 
    
Mailloux's specialnessearned him three years in Florida with a group of 
celibate TM men, living monastically within the movement, where he enjoyed the 
adulation of female movement groupies drawn to his hard-to-getness -- a 
common 
ego-trip among the celibates, he said. Some movement women with low 
self-esteem, 
he added, tend to get fixated on these celibate men and get milked for 
donations 
to support them.

[FairfieldLife] Peace Palaces

2013-08-28 Thread Michael Jackson
If you lived here, you'd be om now
Omaha World-Herald
Paul Hammel
April 27, 2009
PLEASANT DALE, Neb. - Even peace and enlightenment are taking
a beating in today's economy.
Followers of the late Maharishi Mahesh Yogi have recently
abandoned plans to build a $3 million Peace Palace at an Interstate 80
interchange just west of Lincoln.

The 27-acre plot is now being offered for sale for $180,000.

Proceeds would be used for other Peace Palaces and other projects, including a
recent push to use Transcendental Meditation in troubled public schools to
improve academic performance.

Everything that you've been reading about the economy affects us as
well, said Kent Boyum, director of government relations for the Global
Country of World Peace, an affiliate organization that owns the Seward County
plot.

Several other properties owned by Maharishi-affiliated groups are being sold
off as the organization reassesses its priorities in the troubled economy and
in the wake of the death of the Maharishi last February, Boyum said.

The downturn has even affected fees charged for an introductory course in
Transcendental Meditation, which were recently reduced from $2,500 to $1,500.
People with financial hardships can sign up for as little as $750, according to
Wally DeVasier, who directs three Peace Palaces in the Fairfield, Iowa, area.

Everyone's been hit by this, DeVasier said.
The sale marks a new chapter for a piece of property with a
colorful past.
The plot, in the northeast quadrant of the Pleasant Dale exit
of I-80, used to be the site of a small truck stop. In 1994 it became the
Prairie Peace Park.

Actor and peace activist Ed Asner attended the dedication of the park, which
sought to promote world peace and justice through a series of murals and
sculptures.

About 1,500 people, including U.S. Sen. Jim Exon and Nebraska first lady Diane
Nelson, attended the grand opening of what was billed as the world's
first peace park. Former Gov. Frank Morrison was among those on the
park's board of directors.

But grand plans for the park never took off. Attendance waned, as did volunteer
help and donations to keep up the property.

In 2005, the park's co-founder and director, Don Tilley of Lincoln, announced
the sale of the property to the Global Country of World Peace, a group
associated with the Maharishi, who is perhaps best known for mentoring the
Beatles.

The Seward County Peace Palace and another palace envisioned for Omaha were
among 3,000 that were planned across the country. They would have been places
where advanced and beginning Transcendental Meditation classes would be taught.

Plans for the Omaha palace were scrapped when suitable and affordable land
could not be found, according to Eric Michener, who was involved in developing
the Nebraska palaces.

The goal of 3,000 palaces was probably too ambitious, Michener said.

We don't have the funding for anywhere near that number, he said.

Tilley said he was disappointed to hear that the Peace Palace plan had been
scrapped.

It would have worked out beautifully, he said.

Not all the planned Peace Palaces were abandoned, and the Transcendental
Meditation movement got a big publicity boost recently when former Beatles Paul
McCartney and Ringo Starr performed at a fund-raiser.

A new Peace Palace will open soon in St. Paul, Minn. Two were built in
Fairfield, Iowa, a town of 15,000, and another in nearby Maharishi Vedic City.
That town of 222, incorporated in 2001, is dedicated to the Maharishi and
incorporates his views on architecture.

Nearly a dozen Peace Palaces were begun near Smith Center, Kan., just south of
the Nebraska border. Smith Center was envisioned as a World Peace Capital for
the TM organizations.

The economy has slowed construction there, Boyum said. One palace is nearly
finished, however, and a second is not far behind.

The Peace Palaces near Fairfield, in southeast Iowa, make more sense, DeVasier
said, because Maharishi University of Management is there, and many people come
to Iowa to learn advanced TM methods that address high blood pressure.

DeVasier said palaces planned in less populated areas, such as the one near
Lincoln, are among those being put off.

Whoever buys the Peace Palace site will get some memorabilia with it: Two
exhibits from the Prairie Peace Park days - including a globe-shaped
Dance of the Children sculpture - are included in the purchase.

Britain: 
TM
A call for an 
official enquiry into the aims and methods of the Transcendental Meditation 
movements was 
made at a public meeting in Wealdstone in May.  

Former TM teacher, Hesta Fischberg said Britain was 
the only country in which the movement was not the subject of government 
investigation.  

“Britain 
has always been proud of her heritage of freedom and justice,” she told the 
meeting, “the last thing we should allow on our soil is this horrible 
falsehood.  It is about time someone 
started to do something.  The 
Maharishi has got10,000of our people under 
his control and God knows where they are going to end up.”  

The meeting was organized to warn the 
public of the “cancer” of TM.  Miss 
Fishberg said, “Some people do feel relaxed when they begin to meditate, but as 
they become more and more drawn in to the movement they become so ‘relaxed’ 
that 
they can be totally dominated¼.  They say they have achieved peace, but 
whose world are they living in where there is peace?”  

“What is happening to those people is 
quite horrifying,” continued Miss Fischberg, “They deteriorate to a state 
in which they can no longer resist.”  In the meantime, MentmoreTowers is open 
to the public, its 
walls hung with silk and velvet, its grounds about to be built over to provide 
more accommodation.  They now sell 
silk dresses (made by meditating Chinese in Hong Kong) 
through the trade for between £230 and 
£390!

Funny how you never read such things in the Global Country Good News

International
Zambia:  
TM Scheme Chased from Zambia.  
    ATranscendental Meditation (TM) scheme to turn Zambia into heaven on 
earth appears to have collapsed 
in the wake of the electoral defeat late last year of the scheme's chief 
patron, long-time Zambian president Kenneth Kaunda.
    
    The devoutly 
Christian president's interest in mystical matters - he already had an 
Indian spiritualist as an advisor - was well known when TM 
representatives sold him on a plan to take over one quarter of the 
country on which to develop ideal communities by sowing unused land and 
creating new villages while teaching Zambians TM techniques. This in a 
once prosperous country with its economy now in tatters, food and 
medicine in short supply, and a decaying infrastructure.
    
    The Maharishi 
Heaven on Earth Project - crazy, isn't it, said opposition politician 
Derrick Chitala - had managed to establish a training center where 
hundreds of Zambians studied meditation via videotape, farming, solar 
energy, holistic medicine, conversion of gasoline engine cars to 
pollution-free electric technology, and other skills needed for the new world. 
The school was run and promoted by Humphrey Mumba, a 34-year-old devotee who 
says TM cured his asthma. He sees TM as a scientifically 
proved life-improvement technique used successfully around the world.
    
    President Kaunda, 
who denied any personal involvement in TM - That is not in my line - 
said the project was merely an experiment, an attempt to try something 
radical and new to solve Zambia's endemic problems. He said it was a 
development scheme, not a religious one, and that no one would be forced to 
join a cult or meditate.
    
    A local newspaper 
editor explained: The gurus came to him with this idea to put up this 
funny project of theirs and found the president very receptive to the 
idea. They are very clever. They see the psychology of the man and they 
exploit it.
    
    During the run up 
to the election, an opposition spokes-man told a rally, They are going 
to give our land to the gurus of India! We say, when we are elected, we 
will send them home! (From Heaven's strange bedfellows, by Rick 
Lyman, The Philadelphia Inquirer, 10/16/91, 1A, 14A; Kaunda Swept From 
Office in Lopsided Zambian Vote, by Karl Maier, Washington Post, 
11/2/91, A1, A19)
    
    The night before 
the election, TM had a half-hour TV ad about how the TM scheme would 
make Zambia invincible among its neighbors and a world leader. The day 
after the election, which saw Kaunda get only 20% of the vote, TM 
officials reportedly fled the country. (Cult Observer Report)

 what is happening? Certain traditional hand-me-downs do become useful,
 such as what a screw is, and what a screwdriver is, and how to use them
 in what circumstance, and how these items relate to sticking things
 together.

 After what I would call a very clear but subdued awakening experience
 some years ago, things were pretty nice for several years. There was
 something about this particular experience, unlike others I had had long
 ago, that I could not grasp in any way. Even the attempt to talk about
 it stymied me. Then all hell broke loose. A vast amount of repressed
 material rose up and flowed out of me. A total surprise. So clearly the
 awakening was not a clean slate. It was ultra intense, say twenty times
 more intense than anything I had experienced up to then. And the
 experience was truly unusual because while my regular life flowed along,
 there was this other stuff that I knew was not real, but it felt so real
 it was impossible to not act on it. It was like my mind was split in two
 with two parallel lives running simultaneously, one the present and the
 other thoughts, feelings, behaviours from long ago. I had no clue what
 was happening.

 If I had asked a TM teacher what was happening they probably would have
 said I was 'just unstressing, that I should take it easy and maybe get
 my meditation checked or something'. No really useful information or
 guidelines that apply directly. Extreme experiences like this seem to be
 swept under the rug by TM teachers, anything not in the template. I
 suspect they do not really have any training to handle them. I found a
 solution in what I was reading. It seems that after a clear awakening,
 one's ability to keep repressed material repressed simply falls apart.
 The can of worms is open, and if something triggers the experience, you
 cannot close it, and the experience really does seem like you are coming
 apart at the seams. All you can do is endure it. Nothing helps. It is as
 if finally there is enough room in your world to experience this. The
 intellectual knowledge that this is common, that others experienced it,
 and that it is super intense, and that you have to go through it because
 there is no way to back out, is really useful. Kind of like the
 emotional equivalent of childbirth as far as pain. That information,
 along with the stability conferred by awakening allowed me to get
 through it, just barely. Without that information I would have been a
 lot more confused, and perhaps would have done things even more stupid
 than had occurred to me to attempt at the time. Half of my time during
 this was acting on a mental delusion caused by the release. Finally it
 subsided after a few years. It was a strangely miserable/wonderful
 several years. After that my sense of stability was much, much greater,
 and the character of the experience that I had had before this happened
 was much clearer. Maybe it will happen again. I simply do not know.

 The result now I would not call bliss, but a sense of profound evenness
 that has been stable for some time. I have no illusions that this
 evenness will never be disrupted again. But it has been pretty nice.

 An example of evenness occurred a couple of days ago. I was preparing
 breakfast. I had put a small amount of oil in a frying pan. Then while
 it heated up, I sat down at the table and started to read the following

It won't be long now and we'll know who is the real leader

out that Assad didn't use WMD, or that he has no WMD?

John Kerry is too, so we've been down this road before.

If it took us 10 years to get out of Afghanistan, it would

  from the fact that the administration would be highly
  unlikely to bomb Syria in this present situation on
  the basis of the results of a poll.) Now, *that* would
  be a confession.
 
   I thought Doc asked some good questions and that was the
   first response that came to my mind, that they took a poll.
 
  He did ask a good question, but it was more rhetorical
  than information oriented. It made the point that there
  *should* have been outrage months ago about the shelling

  in no way a response to that point.
 
   I think Xeno is right, I do tend to be more intuitive than

  Intuitive sounds better than sloppy. You just make any

Forget F-16s, Israel needs 
Yogic Flyers to beat Hizbullah
 
Jerusalem Post, 
July 23, 2006
By Amir 
Mizroch
 There are 
Katyusha rockets falling in villages and towns all around them, but for the 
squadron of 30 Israeli Yogic Flyers assembled at a hotel on Lake Kinneret all 
is quiet. That's because they have managed to create a shield of invincibility 
around their gathering place. Now they are calling for another 235 Flyers to 
come and join them to create a shield that would, they say, cover all of 
Israel.

In an interview from the Nof Ginnosar Hotel near Tiberias on 
Saturday, the Prime Minister of the Peace Government of Israel and Yogic Flyer 
Alex Kutai called on the elected Israeli government to recruit a group of 265 
Yogic Flyers who, through an advanced technique of Transcendental 
Meditation (TM), he asserted, would create a shield of invincibility 
around Israel and bring about an immediate cessation of violence with the 
Hizbullah.

Prime Minister Kutai, who is also the Chairman of the 
International Transcendental Meditation Society in Israel, said his elected 
counterpart Ehud Olmert had to urgently find a group of 265 people trained in 
the TM technique and maintain them in one location where they can generate an 
invincibility shield around Israel against all forms of war and violence, 
including road accidents, and keep the shield up permanently.

Ten days 
before this latest round of violence broke out between Israel and the 
Hizbullah, 
we received an urgent message from the headquarters of the Global Government of 
World Peace that there was an immediate danger of violence in the region, and 
that each country had to mobilize its Yogic Flyers - those who practice the TM 
technique - to ward off the danger, Kutai said earnestly.

According to 
Kutai, the Yogic Flyer practices an advanced meditation technique in which his 
or her consciousness is brought to a level where thinking is without content, 
where the Flyer connects with the source of all energy and intelligence - 
beyond any thought and at the same time the source of all thought. Kutai said 
this state is what physicists call the United Field of the Laws of 
Nature.

The number 265 should be sufficient, Kutai said, as it conforms 
exactly to the formula discovered by the overall leader of the Global 
Government 
of World Peace, Raja (King) Tony Nader. The formula postulates that the square 
root of one percent of a country's population is the right number of people 
needed to tap into a Collective Consciousness strong enough to create a shield 
of invincibility. Since Israel has an estimated 7 million inhabitants, one per 
cent is 70,000 and the square root of 70,000 is 264.575.

Kutai said that 
according to his calculations, 500 Yoga Flyers would be needed to bring peace 
to 
the Middle East, but that the Flyers would have to be spread throughout the 
region. Kutai said he is aware of a similar group of TM practitioners in 
Lebanon, but that he is not currently in contact with them.

According to 
King Nader's Web site, he is now the First Sovereign Ruler of the Global 
Country of World Peace. His official title is His Majesty Raja Nader Raam, and 
his association's physical address is listed as Maharishi Health Education 
Center P.O. Box 116-5350 Beirut - Lebanon.

The Global Country of 
World Peace is a country without borders inhabited by citizens who love 
peace, Kutai said.

According to his Web site, Professor Tony Nader M.D., 
Ph.D. obtained his MD degree from the American University of Beirut, where he 
also studied internal medicine and psychiatry. His Ph.D. was in brain and 
Cognitive Science from Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT), where he 
was 
also a visiting physician at the Clinical Research Center. He did his 
post-doctoral work as a Clinical and Research Fellow in Neurology at the 
Massachusetts General Hospital, the Harvard Medical School.

Nader 
conducted various research projects on neurochemistry and neuroendocrinology. 
According to his Web site, he has demonstrated scientifically that human 
physiology is made up of the 40 aspects of Veda and Vedic Literature, and that 
all the infinite organizing powers of all kinds and the whole cosmos are seated 
in the physiology of every human being.

Therefore every individual - 
whether Christian or Hindu, Muslim or Buddhist, Sikh or Jain or Parsee - has 
been scientifically proven to be cosmic, and to have unlimited cosmic 
potentiality. Higher Intelligence is located in the very physiological 
structure 
of every man, woman and child in the nation, and only needs to be awakened for 
everyone to enjoy the support of Higher Intelligence, the Web site 
says.

Nader could not be reached for comment, but Kutai said that the 
king, who is of Christian Lebanese origin, has gathered a group of 400 
European Yogic Flyers to his current headquarters in Holland to keep Europe 
safe.

I was there, briefly. The last big course I attended. The administration and 
assignment of rooms for participants was unprofessional, inefficient, and 
highly political - like some third world backwater. 

After waiting five hours (5:30 PM to 10:30 PM) at the hotel, for my reserved 
and paid for, single room, I was finally given a dorm room on the other side of 
town, shared with some guy with a skin infection, who woke me up at 1 AM, to 
move in. I left the course the next day. 

As for the demonstrators mentioned in this article, they must have phoned it

 Ex-Followers Demonstrate Against TM

This was probably Joe Kellett, not Kelley. He used to post
here, back in 2003.

 Former TM teacher Diane Hendel, who has sued the organization
 for fraud and extortion, said the many bizarre mental
 experiences she had were considered a sign of spiritual
 superiority. I saw little creatures with wings during 
 intensive meditation periods, she related. They were like my
 pets. They'd tell me things. She was encouraged to believe
 that these winged beasties were devas -- Hindu spirits of
 nature. I began not to be able to tell who was a person and
 who was a deva, she said.

Interesting. Seems like it wasn't just Robin and Mark
Landau who saw such beings.

Oh, and Dr. Peter Sutphen, now a practicing psychotherapist,
who used to be a regular here (and made a brief appearance
recently). I can't now recall whether it was in an FFL post
or on TM-Free, but he said that as he was writing it one of
the creatures scampered across his desk, so he was
apparently still able to see them. Didn't seem to bother him
any.

 Mailloux said involvement in the movement becomes a prison
 of specialness.

Mmm, that's a familiar phrase, isn't it?

Croonies I would assume would be those who croon, so Rick must have a bunch of 
people who sing to him every day. I hope for his sake it isn't the saccharine 
songs of the Mother Divine ladies, but maybe Rick likes that kind-a music and

Ahem, the CIA backed a confederation of Mujaheddin to fight the Soviet Union in 
Afghanistan. Osama Ben Laden organized and started Al Qaeda after the Soviets 
were driven out. The Taliban were one group of Mujaheddin that eventually took 
control of the Afghan government from all the rest and then sponsored Al Qaeda.

Re: [FairfieldLife] Re: Obombie wants his war

2013-08-28 Thread Mike Dixon
I'm still waiting to hear the *big lie* Bush told. If it was that Iraq had 
WMD's, that is what he was told and assured of by George Tenet, head of the CIA 
and appointed to that position by  William Jefferson Clinton. If you say 
something that is not true, it's not a lie if you believed it was true. You 
were just wrong. Lying is intended deception. Saddam Hussein gave just about 
every intelligence agency in the world the belief that he had WMD's, and was 
moving them around and hiding them. Saddam wanted people to believe he had them 
because he used them against his own people, the Kurds and against the Iranians 
and he kept Shiites under control with that lie.

 Authfriend, your beautiful mind is wasted on her.

Does it bother anyone else that the mime is talking?

It won't be long now and we'll know who is the real leader 
of the free world. What if Obama is wrong, and it turns 
out that Assad didn't use WMD, or that he has no WMD? 

We already know that George W. Bush was a liar, and that 
John Kerry is too, so we've been down this road before. 

If it took us 10 years to get out of Afghanistan, it would 
probably take 20 to get out of Syria, if ever. Go figure.

The question is, will punishing Assad end the civil war in 
Syria? No. 

So, is Russia irrelevant?

If there's any doubt about the answer, consider two 
numbers: 8,500 and 1.

  The word is discreet, not discrete.

  You still don't understand what was wrong with your

  from the fact that the administration would be highly
  unlikely to bomb Syria in this present situation on
  the basis of the results of a poll.) Now, *that* would

   I thought Doc asked some good questions and that was the
   first response that came to my mind, that they took a poll.
  
  He did ask a good question, but it was more rhetorical
  than information oriented. It made the point that there
  *should* have been outrage months ago about the shelling
  of apartment buildings. And your hypothetical poll was 
  in no way a response to that point.
  
   I think Xeno is right, I do tend to be more intuitive than
   linear in my thinking. But mainly I tend to make connections.
  
  Intuitive sounds better than sloppy. You just make any
  old connection that crosses your mind in order to have
  something to say, Share. You don't bother to think things
  through, so your connections rarely add value.
  
   Anyway, thanks for your intelligent comments and article.

  More than 800 members of the Maharishi Mahesh Yogi's Transcendental 
  Meditation, attending a week-long convention at Washington, DC's 
  Omni-Shoreham Hotel in June, faced the protest of members of TM-EX, an 
  informal 
  anti-TM group that educates the public about TM and offers exit 
  counseling to 
  those who want out of the movement.
   
      
  One TM-EX, former 15-year follower Curtis Mailloux, a 33-year-old real 
  estate 
  broker from Fairfax, VA, denounced the organization as a cultist religion 
  that 
  is exploitative, deceptive, and damaging. Mailloux is a 1979 graduate of 
  Maharishi International University, in Fairfield, IA, who in 1985 became 
  head of 
  TM's Washington Center.
   
      
  TM-EXers do not dispute that TM can be an effective relaxation technique, 
  though 
  they say it is no better than similar relaxation regimens. The danger in 
  TM, 
  they say, comes when the discipline takes over the meditators' 
  lives.
   
      
  TM-EX member Joe Kelley said: When we started we were told it was a 
  simple, 
  effortless technique for releasing stress with no religious implications. 
  Initially, it was a 20 minute technique. But by taking advanced residence 
  courses and other activities, I was effectively made into a Hindu 
  believer, 
  said Kelley.
   
      
  Former TM teacher Diane Hendel, who has sued the organization for fraud and 
  extortion, said the many bizarre mental experiences she had were considered 
  a 
  sign of spiritual superiority. I saw little creatures with wings during 
  intensive meditation periods, she related. They were like my pets. They'd 
  tell 
  me things. She was encouraged to believe that these winged beasties were 
  devas -- Hindu spirits of nature. I began not to be able to tell who was 
  a 
  person and who was a deva, she said. Hendel sought counseling, eventually 
  quit 
  meditating, and left the movement.
   
      
  Mailloux said involvement in the movement becomes a prison of specialness. 
  Especially as a leader in the movement, there's no way you can leave this 
  group 
  and be [regarded by other devotees as] OK or leave with dignity... I was 
  only 
  special as a nervous system which is a 'generator of purity,' not as an 
  individual.
   
      
  Mailloux's specialnessearned him three years in Florida with a group of 
  celibate TM men, living monastically within the movement, where he enjoyed 
  the 
  adulation of female movement groupies drawn to his hard-to-getness -- a 
  common 
  ego-trip among the celibates, he said. Some movement women with low 
  self-esteem, 
  he added, tend to get fixated on these celibate men and get milked for 
  donations 
  to support them.

  they say, comes when the discipline takes over the meditators' 
  lives.
   
      
  TM-EX member Joe Kelley said: When we started we were told it was a 
  simple, 
  effortless technique for releasing stress with no religious implications. 
  Initially, it was a 20 minute technique. But by taking advanced residence 
  courses and other activities, I was effectively made into a Hindu 
  believer, 
  said Kelley.
   
      
  Former TM teacher Diane Hendel, who has sued the organization for fraud and 
  extortion, said the many bizarre mental experiences she had were considered 
  a 
  sign of spiritual superiority. I saw little creatures with wings during 
  intensive meditation periods, she related. They were like my pets. They'd 
  tell 
  me things. She was encouraged to believe that these winged beasties were 
  devas -- Hindu spirits of nature. I began not to be able to tell who was 
  a 
  person and who was a deva, she said. Hendel sought counseling, eventually 
  quit 
  meditating, and left the movement.
   
      
  Mailloux said involvement in the movement becomes a prison of specialness. 
  Especially as a leader in the movement, there's no way you can leave this 
  group 
  and be [regarded by other devotees as] OK or leave with dignity... I was 
  only 
  special as a nervous system which is a 'generator of purity,' not as an 
  individual.
   
      
  Mailloux's specialnessearned him three years in Florida with a group of 
  celibate TM men, living monastically within the movement, where he enjoyed 
  the 
  adulation of female movement groupies drawn to his hard-to-getness -- a 
  common 
  ego-trip among the celibates, he said. Some movement women with low 
  self-esteem, 
  he added, tend to get fixated on these celibate men and get milked for 
  donations 
  to support them.

Remembering  the past seems to be completely natural. Our memories of
people, places  and experiences can be precious and worth dwelling on
from time to  time.

investigating the Nature of Time
http://fqxi.org/conference/2011 http://fqxi.org/conference/2011

Wonderful  article about the great 80 millisecond reality blank( time to
transfer  information from sensory system to the brain and to process it
within  the brain before we become conscious of it.)Might be very
interesting to  conduct the same researches not on casual students, but
on  practitioners of different spiritual practices, like meditators,
shamans  etc who might show a slightly different perception of time:

Quirks of Perception

  When  we retrieve a memory, we also rewrite it, so that the time next
we go  to remember it, we don't retrieve the original memory but the
last one  we recollected. So, each time we tell a story, we embellish
it, while  remaining genuinely convinced of the veracity of our
memories.
The  bottom line is that memory is essential to constructing scenarios
for  ourselves in the future. Anecdotal evidence backs this up. Our
ability  to project forward and to recollect the past both develop
around age 5,  and people who are good at remembering also report having
vivid thoughts  about the future.
  Huw Price's Time's Arrow and Archimedes'  Point, argues
that concepts of cause and effect derive from our  experience as agents
in the world and may not be a fundamental feature  of reality.

 Zambia:  
 TM Scheme Chased from Zambia.  
     ATranscendental Meditation (TM) scheme to turn Zambia into heaven on 
 earth appears to have collapsed 
 in the wake of the electoral defeat late last year of the scheme's chief 
 patron, long-time Zambian president Kenneth Kaunda.
     
     The devoutly 
 Christian president's interest in mystical matters - he already had an 
 Indian spiritualist as an advisor - was well known when TM 
 representatives sold him on a plan to take over one quarter of the 
 country on which to develop ideal communities by sowing unused land and 
 creating new villages while teaching Zambians TM techniques. This in a 
 once prosperous country with its economy now in tatters, food and 
 medicine in short supply, and a decaying infrastructure.
     
     The Maharishi 
 Heaven on Earth Project - crazy, isn't it, said opposition politician 
 Derrick Chitala - had managed to establish a training center where 
 hundreds of Zambians studied meditation via videotape, farming, solar 
 energy, holistic medicine, conversion of gasoline engine cars to 
 pollution-free electric technology, and other skills needed for the new 
 world. The school was run and promoted by Humphrey Mumba, a 34-year-old 
 devotee who says TM cured his asthma. He sees TM as a scientifically 
 proved life-improvement technique used successfully around the world.
     
     President Kaunda, 
 who denied any personal involvement in TM - That is not in my line - 
 said the project was merely an experiment, an attempt to try something 
 radical and new to solve Zambia's endemic problems. He said it was a 
 development scheme, not a religious one, and that no one would be forced to 
 join a cult or meditate.
     
     A local newspaper 
 editor explained: The gurus came to him with this idea to put up this 
 funny project of theirs and found the president very receptive to the 
 idea. They are very clever. They see the psychology of the man and they 
 exploit it.
     
     During the run up 
 to the election, an opposition spokes-man told a rally, They are going 
 to give our land to the gurus of India! We say, when we are elected, we 
 will send them home! (From Heaven's strange bedfellows, by Rick 
 Lyman, The Philadelphia Inquirer, 10/16/91, 1A, 14A; Kaunda Swept From 
 Office in Lopsided Zambian Vote, by Karl Maier, Washington Post, 
 11/2/91, A1, A19)
     
     The night before 
 the election, TM had a half-hour TV ad about how the TM scheme would 
 make Zambia invincible among its neighbors and a world leader. The day 
 after the election, which saw Kaunda get only 20% of the vote, TM 
 officials reportedly fled the country. (Cult Observer Report)

  Ex-Followers Demonstrate Against
  TM
 
  From Grounding
  the Guru, by Susan Gervasi, City Paper (Washington, DC), 7/13/90;
  14,16.
 
 
  More than 800 members of the Maharishi Mahesh Yogi's Transcendental
  Meditation, attending a week-long convention at Washington, DC's
  Omni-Shoreham Hotel in June, faced the protest of members of TM-EX,
an informal
  anti-TM group that educates the public about TM and offers exit
counseling to
  those who want out of the movement.
 
 
  One TM-EX, former 15-year follower Curtis Mailloux, a 33-year-old
real estate
  broker from Fairfax, VA, denounced the organization as a cultist
religion that
  is exploitative, deceptive, and damaging. Mailloux is a 1979
graduate of
  Maharishi International University, in Fairfield, IA, who in 1985
became head of
  TM's Washington Center.
 
 
  TM-EXers do not dispute that TM can be an effective relaxation
technique, though
  they say it is no better than similar relaxation regimens. The
danger in TM,
  they say, comes when the discipline takes over the meditators'
  lives.
 
 
  TM-EX member Joe Kelley said: When we started we were told it was a
simple,
  effortless technique for releasing stress with no religious
implications.
  Initially, it was a 20 minute technique. But by taking advanced
residence
  courses and other activities, I was effectively made into a Hindu
believer,
  said Kelley.
 
 
  Former TM teacher Diane Hendel, who has sued the organization for
fraud and
  extortion, said the many bizarre mental experiences she had were
considered a
  sign of spiritual superiority. I saw little creatures with wings
during
  intensive meditation periods, she related. They were like my pets.
They'd tell
  me things. She was encouraged to believe that these winged beasties
were
  devas -- Hindu spirits of nature. I began not to be able to tell
who was a
  person and who was a deva, she said. Hendel sought counseling,
eventually quit
  meditating, and left the movement.
 
 
  Mailloux said involvement in the movement becomes a prison of
specialness.
  Especially as a leader in the movement, there's no way you can leave
this group
  and be [regarded by other devotees as] OK or leave with dignity... I
was only
  special as a nervous system which is a 'generator of purity,' not as
an
  individual.
 
 
  Mailloux's specialnessearned him three years in Florida with a
group of
  celibate TM men, living monastically within the movement, where he
enjoyed the
  adulation of female movement groupies drawn to his hard-to-getness
-- a common
  ego-trip among the celibates, he said. Some movement women with low
self-esteem,
  he added, tend to get fixated on these celibate men and get milked
for donations
  to support them.

Bhairitu,

One of Obama's options is to NOT attack directly but to supply the rebels with 
the needed weapons and ammunitions they need to fight Assad.  He might also 
choose a no fly zone against Assad's airforce.  That means, the US Air Force 
will be involved in enforcing this policy.

This could possibly tip the progress of the war towards the rebel.  At the same 
time, the rebel leadership should be able to setup a new government for the 
benefit of the Syrian people.

At this time, Obama is still weighing his options and we should find out very 
soon what that option will be.

 something that is not true, it's not a lie if you believed it was true. You 
 were just wrong. Lying is intended deception. Saddam Hussein gave just about 
 every intelligence agency in the world the belief that he had WMD's, and was 
 moving them around and hiding them. Saddam wanted people to believe he had 
 them because he used them against his own people, the Kurds and against the 
 Iranians and he kept Shiites under control with that lie.

  Authfriend, your beautiful mind is wasted on her.
 
 Does it bother anyone else that the mime is talking?
 
 It won't be long now and we'll know who is the real leader 
 of the free world. What if Obama is wrong, and it turns 
 out that Assad didn't use WMD, or that he has no WMD? 
 
 We already know that George W. Bush was a liar, and that 
 John Kerry is too, so we've been down this road before. 
 
 If it took us 10 years to get out of Afghanistan, it would 
 probably take 20 to get out of Syria, if ever. Go figure.
 
 The question is, will punishing Assad end the civil war in 
 Syria? No. 
 
 So, is Russia irrelevant?
 
 If there's any doubt about the answer, consider two 
 numbers: 8,500 and 1.

I remembered an episode when the president's people took a

   You still don't understand what was wrong with your

   from the fact that the administration would be highly
   unlikely to bomb Syria in this present situation on
   the basis of the results of a poll.) Now, *that* would
   be a confession.
   
I thought Doc asked some good questions and that was the
first response that came to my mind, that they took a poll.
   
   He did ask a good question, but it was more rhetorical
   than information oriented. It made the point that there
   *should* have been outrage months ago about the shelling
   of apartment buildings. And your hypothetical poll was 
   in no way a response to that point.
   
I think Xeno is right, I do tend to be more intuitive than
linear in my thinking. But mainly I tend to make connections.
   
   Intuitive sounds better than sloppy. You just make any
   old connection that crosses your mind in order to have
   something to say, Share. You don't bother to think things
   through, so your connections rarely add value.
   
Anyway, thanks for your intelligent comments and article.

 One of Obama's options is to NOT attack directly but
 to supply the rebels with the needed weapons and
 ammunitions they need to fight Assad.

Probably the worst case scenario would be if Russia
comes to the defense of Assad and cuts or hikes oil
prices to Western Europe. If that happens, the Europeans
are screwed - it's going to be a cold winter in Denmark,
France, and Holland. Russia is the largest supplier of
oil, coal and natural gas to Europe.

The best case scenario would be for the U.S. to lob a few
missiles at Syrian military targets to make a point and
Assad then agrees to a new government under pressure
from Iran.

 He might also choose a no fly zone against Assad's airforce.  That
means, the US Air Force will be involved in enforcing this policy.

 This could possibly tip the progress of the war towards the rebel.  At
the same time, the rebel leadership should be able to setup a new
government for the benefit of the Syrian people.

 At this time, Obama is still weighing his options and we should find
out very soon what that option will be.

Richard,

Russia is looking out for itself.  They would rather make money form Europe as 
usual rather than be side-tracked with the Syrian conflict.

The other option would be to rely on the United Nations to determine what is 
the appropriate action against Syria.  IMO, most countries in the world don't 
want another war or get involved in Syria's civil war.  The UN option would 
probable the most innocuous of all and most cost effective for everyone.

   When  we retrieve a memory, we also rewrite it, so that the time next
 we go  to remember it, we don't retrieve the original memory but the
 last one  we recollected. So, each time we tell a story, we embellish
 it, while  remaining genuinely convinced of the veracity of our
 memories.
 The  bottom line is that memory is essential to constructing scenarios
 for  ourselves in the future. Anecdotal evidence backs this up. Our
 ability  to project forward and to recollect the past both develop
 around age 5,  and people who are good at remembering also report having
 vivid thoughts  about the future.
