 AZ, you haven't changed a bit. That should not only give you pause but, if you 
had an inkling of objectivity and/or distance on your pathetic human condition, 
dishearten you. You appear to have been eating nails and otherwise consorting 
with those who have not been having a positive influence on your so-called life 
or outlook. I'll bet you're looking forward to when you don't have to cart that 
corpse of yours around any more since it seems to support a head that contains 
a brain seething with ugliness. If I might conjecture, you are one step beyond 
even that asshat Bawwy.

40. In the first stage of pranayama, the body of the Yogi begins to perspire. 
When it perspires, he should rub it
 well, otherwise the body of the Yogi loses its dhatu (humours). 
 41. In the second stage, there takes place the trembling of the body; in the 
third, the jumping about like a frog; and when the practice becomes greater, 
the adept walks in the air.
 Vayusiddhi.
 42. When the Yogi, though remaining in padmasana, can raise in the air and 
leave the ground, then know that
 he has gained vayusiddhi (success over air), which destroys the darkness of 
the world. -Shiva Samhita III 40-42

Re: [FairfieldLife] Sarah Palin Talks Tough to NRA

The problem with Bernie Sanders (and I respect him highly) is that he is a 
"Socialist" in both name and attitude. If you want the Right Wing to come out 
in droves in the next election, put a self-described Socialist (note capital-S) 
on the Democratic ticket.

Barry, 

 I get that you are not into dialogue.  That suits me fine.  But do you realize 
how invested you are into a narrative that seeks to portray anyone who doesn't 
feel as you do, a "True Believer"?
 

 For example, you have this notion that anyone's take on these questions, other 
than yours has surrendered all faculties of discrimination, and is, by default, 
a "True Believer"
 

 Anyway, that's your privilege, but you've become sort of the mirror image to 
someone like Nabby, in that you have this knee jerk reaction to find a 
justification for your conclusions even if they don't make a lot of sense.
 

 So, slow down, everything's still here just as you left it a few days ago, for 
King's Day.  Nobody suffered by not having their buttons constantly pushed.  
You don't have to get frantic about it.

Bhairitu, 

 I've looked at the jyotish charts of Biden and Hillary and both of them are 
fairly weak.  If the Democrats choose either one as the presidential candidate, 
he or she would more likely lose to the Republicans.  The Democrats better 
start looking for a stronger candidate ASAP within their ranks.

 I've got Biden with a Scorpio ascendant.  He will running the period of a 
retrograde Jupiter in November, 2016.  This period is not very strong as well.  
But he might get the nomination as the Democratic candidate for the presidency,

 Given the jyotish indicators, the Democrats should look for a stronger 
candidate.  If not, the Republicans could very likely win the next election.

Maharishi Center in Lancaster for sale
Popular meditation spot drew celebrities


The Maharishi Ayurveda Health Center on George Hill Road in Lancaster. (T&G 
Staff/FILE PHOTO)

By Lynne Klaft Correspondent and Karen Nugent TELEGRAM & GAZETTE STAFF

LANCASTER —  The Maharishi Ayurveda Health Center, a landmark 217-acre gated 
property that once attracted celebrities such as Elizabeth Taylor, George 
Hamilton, Michael Jackson and George Harrison, is for sale.

The center, at 679 George Hill Road, consists of several buildings. It was put 
on the market last week for $16 million, according to Nancy J. Hazel of TP 
Hazel Sotheby's International Realty, the agent handling the sale. She said 
there have already been some inquiries, but yesterday declined to say if she 
showed the property.

Lothar Pirc, president of the center, said it remains open.

“It is for sale,” he said. “That doesn't mean it will be sold.”

The property owner is listed in the Lancaster assessor's office as Maharishi 
Global Development, and its use is listed as educational. Its assessed property 
value (buildings and land) is approximately $2.3 million. There are 20 
bedrooms, 20 bathrooms, fireplaces, terraces, staff quarters, gardens and 
meadows. Recently, it has operated as a high-end spa for meditation, 
alternative health practices, and Ayurveda education. The estimated real estate 
tax is around $32,000 a year.

Mr. Pirc, also the director of a Maharishi center in Germany, is involved with 
other Ayurveda centers around the world, and was part of the force behind a 
2009 rebirth of the center.

Ayurveda, an ancient form of medication and health practices from India, became 
popular in the 1970s through the late Maharishi Mahesh Yogi, a controversial 
guru visited by the Beatles who promoted healing and mediation practices.

Mr. Pirc said the property owner is a nonprofit organization that holds a 49 
percent share in the business and could have some say on how it would operate 
under a new owner.

The center opened in 1985 and for years drew celebrities who wanted to practice 
meditation and receive treatments in a spa-like atmosphere away from the 
public. Ms. Taylor, while staying at the center in 1988, was taken to Clinton 
Hospital for a sore hip. Mr. Harrison, who followed the Maharishi after his 
bandmates soured on him, was spotted at the Solomon Pond Mall in Marlboro, at a 
convenience store in Bolton and a few other spots. Lancaster police were 
occasionally called to keep Jackson fans off the property.

In 2000, the estate was put on the market for $14 million after the Maharishi 
moved his center to North Carolina. A deal with a private owner for use as a 
private home fell through, and in 2006 a new group of transcendental meditation 
followers with grandiose plans for a grade school and a university came in, 
eventually leading to the purchase by Mr. Pirc's group.

The historic mansion was designed by Guy Lowell, architect of the Museum of 
Fine Arts in Boston, and built by Bayard Thayer of Lancaster in 1904, according 
to Lancaster Historical Commission records.

Originally called Hawthorne Hill, the estate was the summer and holiday 
get-away home for the Thayers who lived on Boston's Beacon Hill. Mr. Thayer was 
known for his interest in trees; he had a pinetum, an area dedicated to the 
cultivation of trees on the property.

Hawthorne Hill was known for its landscaping and gardens and was opened to 
residents once a year during its heyday.

“The town has always enjoyed a strong relationship with the Maharishi Ayurveda 
Health Center,” said Town Administrator Orlando Pacheco. “We understand that in 
this economy that they have to do what is best in its long-term interest. The 
town is willing and welcoming to any proposed buyers on the development or 
redevelopment of the site.”

Actually Judith didn't state anything very clearly about her sexual 
relations with MMY, if any. It could have been just a  back rub for all 
we know. Read the book and then get back to us on the details. Go figure.

 The claim is about the sex-life of Amma. True or false it is widely covered

 They’re all regurgitating Gail’s rumors.

Re: [FairfieldLife] Sarah Palin Talks Tough to NRA

2014-04-28 Thread Bhairitu

Biden and Clinton are establishment candidates.  Nothing will change if 
elected.  There is a move to get Sanders to change from Independent to 
Democrat since he has said he is willing to run.   Of course if he did 
get as far as the WH the first day there would be a "come to Jesus" 
session with him.  I'm very cynical about this country because it has 
run it's course with capitalism which has  been exploited to the point 
absurdity.  We now live in a plutocracy.

RE: [FairfieldLife] Questions for Rick

I reckon time will tell - wasn't Judith Borque the first to very clearly state 
that Maharishi was sexually active? I mean I know there were rumors, but Judith 
was the first to state it clearly and there were plenty of people who said she 
was making it up who could have been said to be in a position to know, like 
Jerry Jarvis who still today asserts that the allegations are utterly false. 

He said so as recently as about 3 or 4 months ago to my friend Bill who talked 
to him several times over the phone and asked him point blank if the sex rumors 
were true. Jerry insists that he and other personal secretaries and skin boys 
saw none of it, not even hints. So if Gail Tredwell remains the lone voice, 
then maybe she's just being mean, but I am betting others will come forward and 
give credence to her tale.

Re: [FairfieldLife] Sarah Palin Talks Tough to NRA

Bhairitu, 

 Since we live in this country, we'd to accept that the president is the leader 
and the commander-in-chief, as stated in the USA constiturion.  I don't know if 
Sanders and Warren are interested in running for president.  They may be 
waiting to see who the actual candidates are before making a decision.  

 As of now, it appears that Joe Biden and Hillary Clinton are the only credible 
candidates that the Democrats have.  But due to her chart, I'd advise Hillary 
not to run as mentioned earlier on this thread.

 Come to think of it, I should research Biden's birth chart too.  Does anyone 
here have his birth information?

That really was it, Curtis. He was as "in the moment" as any great performer 
I've ever seen. I have heard tales that he was not always as gracious and as 
cool onstage as he was when I saw him (he had a rep for spitting on white folks 
in the first few rows during his angry young days), but he certainly was when I 
saw him. And the man was FUNNY! He'd ad-lib, and then he'd do hilarious stuff 
like taking one of his own classic songs -- which are, after all, the Vedas of 
rock 'n roll -- and then do a version of them as would be performed by a Las 
Vegas lounge singer. I was literally on the floor laughing.

What is so cool about him for me is how he was using international rhythms in 
his music and expanding early rock's influences. He made me rethink how much 
liberty I can take with combining rhythms in my own work. It is all connected 
to the New Orleans gumbo of influences I am studying in Professor Longhair's 
piano style.

Great clip too!

Re: [FairfieldLife] Questions for Rick

OK, looks like Rick was referring to Tredwell's specific claims, whatever they 
are. Still, to point out that Amma has a lot of critics is hardly to "cast 
aspersions" on her; it's just a matter of fact.

As far as I've been able to figure out, they simply cannot imagine life

Also, since you feel Amma is enlightened, then do you take all the negative 
press about her as lies? Particularly the allegations made by Gail Tredwell?

Amma denies charges, Chandy backs her but Pinarayi seeks probe

Written by Shaju Philip | Thiruvananthapuram | February 23, 2014 4:56 am 

As the CPI(M) and Congress joined the debate over the allegations raised 
against her ashram by a former aide, spiritual leader Mata Amritanandamayi on 
Saturday said attempts were on to foment trouble after unleashing communal 
sentiments.

Amritanandamayi told a spiritual session in Palakkad that her ashram was an 
open book and there was no lapse on its part. “Some people are saying certain 
things against the ashram when their plans did not materialise. I am trying to 
forget and forgive these issues. I don’t ask anyone to serve me. Instead, I am 
serving others,’’ she said.

Gail Tredwell alias Gayatri, who was Amma’s attendant for two decades since 
early 1980s, in her recently published Holy Hell — A Memoir of Faith, Devotion 
and Pure Madness, alleged sexual exploitation and promiscuity involving senior 
ashram members. The contents of the book had gone viral on social media, but 
prominent dailies in Kerala remained silent on the issue. Three Amma devotees 
filed a police compliant in Kollam district against “offensive content” on the 
social media. DYFI national president M B Rajesh, meanwhile, said it was not 
right of the police to register a case against those who reacted on the 
allegations.

On Saturday, CPM state secretary Pinarayi Vijayan said the allegations against 
the ashram were serious. “That the revelations were made by an insider of the 
ashram for many years shows the gravity of the issue. The writer’s personal 
experiences show that wrongful things were happening at the ashram,’’ he said 
the government must probe the large amounts of money reaching the ashrams and 
see whether anti-national activities were taking place in such spiritual 
centres.

While Congress state president V M Sudheeran made a cautious reaction saying he 
wanted to study the issue, Chief Minister Oommen Chandy said one should not 
forget the great services of the ashram. “I had participated in the social 
services of the ashram. Vijayan should have considered it,’’ said Chandy.

CPM-backed Kairali TV airs interview of author who alleged sex abuse at
Amritanandamayi ashram
Written by Shaju Philip | Thiruvananthapuram | March 8, 2014 1:23 am

The controversy surrounding the ashram of spiritual leader Mata Amritanandamayi
took a new turn after CPM-backed Kairali TV disregarded a legal notice and
aired the second episode of the interview of Gail Tredwell alias Gayatri on
Thursday night and a repeat on Friday. Tredwell, in her book, Holy Hell, A
Memoir of Faith, Devotion and Pure Madness, had alleged sexual exploitation and
abuse at the ashram.
After Kairali TV telecast one episode of the interview earlier this week, a
Delhi-based legal house issued notice against the channel asking to refrain
from telecasting the programme. Kairali TV managing editor John Brittas had
gone to New York to interview Tredwell. However, the channel went ahead with
airing the second episode.

Ashram spokesman Raju Swami said the Muth was not involved in serving legal
notice to the channel. “The stated notice might have been issued at the
intervention of ashram devotees in Delhi. Amma has asked the devotees to
refrain from such action.’’

The content of the book hit headlines last month, triggering discussion on
social media and some TV channels in Kerala, though the leading English and
Malayalam newspapers in the state blacked out the issue.

In the interview to the Kairali TV, Tredwell repeated her allegations against
the ashram and went on to narrate her experiences during her three-decade-long
life as Amma’s personal attendant.

Reacting to the latest controversy, prominent people led by writer Paul
Zacharia, O N V Kurup and B R P Bhaskar, issued a statement saying that the
attempt to prevent the media from telecasting the interview was objectionable.

However, Brittas said the channel did not take any position in the interview,
instead left it to the wisdom of the viewers. “We had telecast the
narco-analysis done on two priests and a nun chargesheeted in the murder of
sister Abhaya and interviewed the catholic nun who published the sexual
escapades of priests. Those who found these programmes as right journalistic
steps have no right to point their finger at us in this issue, Brittas said.

Raju Swami said the ashram had summarily rejected the content of her book with
utmost contempt. “What she wrote was mere fables. She has taken revenge upon
the ashram when her intentions did not materialize. We have nothing to hide,’’
he said.

Re: [FairfieldLife] Re: Heaven on Earth for all Mankind

Nope! The Capitol of the Age of Enlightenment in Navasota Texas burned to the 
ground about three years ago. Just a pile of ashes were left on slabs. However, 
the new Peace Palaces, next to it, were untouched. They were never finished and 
I think the property has been sold. If anyone is suspicious  of another fire 
bringing down a Capitol, it was due to a forest fire that consumed thousands of 
acres. Nature supports! No doubt they got more from insurance than had they 
demolished it and sold it for scrap, which they were considering at one time.

Lenz may well have been interviewed by Hard Copy at some point, but the 
reporter in the wheelchair was crack journalist John Hockenberry interviewing 
Lenz on Dateline NBC. When I saw the tapes, I couldn't believe how phony Lenz 
came across. 

 Just as an aside: If one isn't a terminal tightass, it's entirely possible to 
appreciate charm and wit and general cleverness without necessarily believing 
the charmer is perfect. As it happens, in these transcripts the comparison of 
Maharishi with Lenz regarding these qualities is not, to say the least, in 
Lenz's favor.
 

 

 

 

 So in a fit of Narcissistic Personality Disorder squared, the Rama guy 
actually agreed to be interviewed by "Hard Copy," the American TV counterpart 
of the National Enquirer. "Bahd idea," as Ahnold said in "Predator." :-) The 
interviewer 1) had done his homework, and 2) was in a wheelchair. It was a 
bloodbath.

 Marshy. He had learned TM some years previously at the

 that his mother complimented him on how well he looked

Questions for Rick

1.  Do you still take the TM mantra as instructed?

No. Using a mantra Amma gave me about a dozen years ago, but doing it TM-Style.

If so:
A.  How many advanced techniques?

Learned them all. Don’t do them, except for maybe one involving attention.

B.  Siddhis?  All of them?

Learned them, did them for 25 years. No longer.

C.  How many did you initiate and circa/when?

About 1,000. Mostly early 70’s.

D.  Can you still do the puja with the meanings and feelings?  

Yes.

How often do you do puja?

Did it mentally recently, just to see if I remember it. Otherwise not in years.

E.  Have you ever actually leaped into the air during the flying 
siddhi and NOT have done it mindfully 
on purpose instead of the leap having been "caused" 
mysteriously and 
spontaneously-from-the-beyond-the-beyond?. 

Not really. I don’t dispute that some have, but I doubt Newtonian physics has 
been violated by any in the TM movement.

F.  Do you have clear cognition of the "flavors?"

No. Never did.

G.  When were you last checked?

Decades ago.

H.  Do you get to bed before 10 P.M.?

No, usually about 10:30.

I.  How much money in total have you paid to the TMO?

10’s of $ 1,000 counting all courses, etc. But got many on ATR credit.

J.  When did you move to FF?

1987

2.  Is your shit together?

A matter of opinion.

3.  When did you stop using the TM technique?  Why?

Never did, unless you count switching mantras. If so, then about 12 years ago.

4.   What other gurus have you followed whom you SINCERELY BELIEVED were 
enlightened?

Amma

If so:
A.  What spiritual practices do you do these days?  How often?

Meditation, about 3-4 times a day, totaling about 3 hours.

B.  Still do hatha yoga?

Most days.

C.  What diet do you follow?

Mostly vege, with some chicken and fish in recent years.

D.  Other than TM, did you make other major spiritual decisions 
that you now regret or wish had been tweaked a bit?

Not really. And I don’t regret TM either.

E.  Still seeking?

“Exploring”, “investigating”, “evolving” are better words than “seeking”. The 
desperate, unfulfilled seeking energy is gone. 

5.  Are you enlightened?  When did you realize?  

No. I don’t like the term. Too static and superlative a term.

If so:
A.  Are there any differences in how you define  "awareness," 
"being," "transcendent," "Self," 
and "the Absolute?"

I don’t clearly differentiate the terms.

B. Is there an afterlife in other realms or on other worlds?

Yes.

C. Do you see astral beings?

No, although I’ve had a glimpse or two.

D. Do any of your friends think you're enlightened?  

I hope not.

Have they surrendered to you?

No, but anyone who wishes to do so is welcome to send me all their money. 

E. Do rocks have consciousness or sentience of any sort?

Rocks are consciousness.

F.  Are you able to do any siddhis that an outside observer could 
measure?

No.

pick one of them up in a pawn shop for five bucks.  :-)
 

 Ha, ha. "Real" Kings don't exist, Bawwy. They are the product of hundreds of

Re: [FairfieldLife] Maharishi interview excerpts

Just to follow up, I'll tell a "Rama story," one that was a major influence in 
me coming to my senses about him, about his students, and about myself. It was 
during the "anti-cult attack" period, which actually was one, because there 
were an angry group of parents -- egged on by "deprogrammers" who were trying 
to get them to pay $50,000 to them to kidnap their sons and daughters -- who 
actually practiced hard-core blacklisting and smears in the newspapers to try 
to "bring him down."

In retrospect, some of the things these people said were true, and some were 
made up. But at the time, being on the receiving end of the blacklisting and 
other tactics, naturally some students fell into the "You're either with us or 
against us" mindset, and the Rama guy cultivated that 'tude in his students, 
just as Maharishi did with his self-importance fantasies about the CIA. 

So in a fit of Narcissistic Personality Disorder squared, the Rama guy actually 
agreed to be interviewed by "Hard Copy," the American TV counterpart of the 
National Enquirer. "Bahd idea," as Ahnold said in "Predator." :-) The 
interviewer 1) had done his homework, and 2) was in a wheelchair. It was a 
bloodbath. I remember watching it with a group of Rama students, and what I 
remember most clearly was their reaction. The interviewer would ask, "Have you 
ever told students to break with their parents, and have nothing more to do 
with them if they don't support them studying with you." He looked straight 
into the camera, and said, "No." The interviewer asked other things, like, 
"Have you ever referred to yourself as one of the only 12 fully enlightened 
beings on the planet." Again, the Rama guy looked at the interviewer, and 
through the lens at millions of people, and said, "Of course not." 

People in the room just ate this up with a spoon. Most of them had been in 
rooms when he said these things, or had heard them said to them personally. 
Many of them had audio tapes in their possession where he had been recorded 
saying them. 

I asked some of them about this afterwards, and how they felt about him lying 
to both the interviewer and to millions of viewers, and the answer I got was (I 
shit you not), "What does it matter what he says to them. They don't matter. 
They're not us."

Pretty much at that moment I realized that I wasn't one of "us" any more. 

True Believers can find a way to "write off" ANYTHING that other people would 
perceive as craziness or lying or absolute megalomania because it's coming from 
the mouth of someone they have been conditioned to believe, no matter what. 

I repeat my first "take" on these quotes from Maharishi. Many of them are 
fuckin' Looney Toons. But to people who have been conditioned to see him as 
essentially perfect, they're perfect. And there is nothing that anyone can do 
or say that will convince them that *they're* not the sane ones, and that 
everyone else is *wrong*. In fact, because their egos get *larger* as a result 
of criticism, they'll believe even more strongly than they did before. 

It's just one of those mysteries of being human, I guess. Go figure. Go fuckin' 
figure.

You can tell that Dick Mays is actually *proud* of these answers.

Try reading through this interview while substituting the name of any famous 
psychopath or megalomanic for "MAHARISHI" and you've got the same answers. If 
they'd seen these answers coming from anyone else, they would have been able to 
see how crazy they are. But because they're coming from him, they'll interpret

 Ha, ha. "Real" Kings don't exist, Bawwy. They are the product of hundreds of 
years of inbreeding and oppression of the masses. Your Dutch "King" is hardly 
worthy of three days of "fun and frolic" - what does this entail? Perhaps 
prostrating oneself in all seriousness before his portrait while slugging down 
a few pints of Dutch swill.

 More than 9.3 million cows were used to produce milk in the United States in 
2008, and more than 2.5 million dairy cows were slaughtered for meat. Cows used 
by the dairy industry are intensively confined, continually impregnated, and 
bred for high milk production with little concern for their well-being. Far 
from being the “happy cows” the industry makes them out to be, these typically 
playful, nurturing animals endure immense suffering on factory farms.
 
 Like all mammals, dairy cows must be impregnated in order to produce milk. 
Cows in the dairy industry spend their lives in a constant cycle of 
impregnation, birth, and milking with just a few short months of rest between 
pregnancies.
 
 Nearly all cows used for dairy in the U.S. are eventually slaughtered for 
human consumption. At an average of less than 5 years of age, exhausted cows 
are considered “spent” and sent to slaughter, and millions of them are eaten by 
Americans as hamburger. In a natural setting, a cow can live more than 20 years.
 
 Usually just within hours of birth, calves are taken away from their mothers. 
Calves can become so distressed from separation that they become sick, lose 
weight from not eating, and cry so much that their throats become raw.
 
 Because male calves will not grow up to produce milk, they are considered of 
little value to the dairy farmer and are sold for meat. Millions of these 
calves are taken away to be raised for beef. Hundreds of thousands of other 
male calves born into the dairy industry are raised for veal. Many people 
consider veal to be cruel, but they don’t realize that veal production is a 
product of the dairy industry.
 
 In the vast majority of dairy operations in the U.S., cows spend their lives 
indoors, typically on hard, abrasive concrete floors, frequently connected to a 
milking apparatus.
 
 
 In 2007, the average cow in the dairy industry was forced to produce more than 
20,000 lbs. of milk in one year — more than double the milk produced 40 years 
before. Breeding cows for this unnaturally high level of milk production, 
combined with damage caused to the udders by milking machines, contributes to 
high levels of mastitis, a very common and very painful swelling of glands of 
the udder. 
 
 In the name of increased milk production and profit, some dairy cows are 
repeatedly injected with bovine growth hormone, a genetically-engineered 
hormone that has been shown to increase the risk of health problems like 
mastitis and lameness.
 
 Arguing that it improves hygiene, dairy producers cut off cows’ tails, called 
“tail docking,” either by placing a tight rubber ring around the tail until it 
falls off or by cutting it off with a sharp instrument. Each method causes 
chronic pain. Cows use their tail to swish away flies and can suffer immensely 
during fly season.
 
 Investigations have found that cows who collapse because they are too sick or 
injured to walk or stand, known as “downers” by the industry, are routinely 
prodded, dragged, and pushed around slaughter facilities.
 
 
 Cows Used for Meat
 
 In 2010, 34.2 million cattle were slaughtered for beef in the United States. 
Often beginning their short lives on rangeland, calves are soon separated from 
their nurturing mothers and endure a series of painful mutilations. Before they 
are a year old, young calves endure a long and stressful journey to a feedlot, 
where they are fattened on an unnatural diet until they reach “market weight” 
and are sent to slaughter.
 
 After being taken from their mother, calves’ cries can be so intense that 
their throats become irritated.
 
 Calves raised for beef may be subject to a number of painful mutilations, 
including dehorning, castration, and branding. Even though each of these 
procedures is known to cause fear and pain, pain relief is rarely provided.
 
 Because it is thought to improve meat quality and tenderness, male calves are 
castrated at a young age. Methods include removing testicles surgically with a 
scalpel, crushing spermatic cords with a clamp, and constricting blood flow to 
the scrotum until testicles die and fall off. Each method is known to cause 
pain that can last for days.
 
 Cattle in the U.S. are often branded by having an iron hotter than 950 °F 
pressed into their skin for several seconds. This is done so that beef 
producers can identify cattle and claim ownership.
 
 Between 6 months and a year of age, cattle are moved from pasture to feedlots 
to be fattened for slaughter. Calves gain weight on an unnatural diet and reach 
“market weight” of 1,200 pounds in just 6 months.
 
 The majority of cattle are fattened in feedlots in just four U.S. states. 
Since calves are born all over the country, they often endure long and 
stressful trips from their place of birth to these states without food, water, 
or protection from the elements
 
 Once they reach “market weight,” cattle in the be

 The fascinating thing from my point of view is that Lawson seems to actually 
believe that the things you, I, Curtis, and Michael say are some kind of 
"fringe" opinions spouted by those with a grudge against the TM movement. That 
belief *alone* is True Believerism to the max. It's like when someone (I think 
the Judester) pretended that the obit article written at the time of 
Maharishi's death and posted here was "biased." It really wasn't. It was HOW 
MOST PEOPLE ON THE PLANET VIEW MAHARISHI MAHESH YOGI.
 

 That is, as a spiritual con man, he is notable only for the financial success 
and the number of people he sucked into his cons. That's the only area in which 
he ever excelled at anything.

 

 Except for a tiny, tiny fraction of people who are still brainwashed from 
their time in the TM movement (probably less than the made-up "square root of 
1%) of the population), NO ONE looks at him as a "great saint," much less "the 
greatest who has ever lived." You have to be REEEAALLLY REEEAALLLY STOOPID to 
believe something like that. And most of the world isn't nearly that stupid.
 

 Lawson's never been on the "inside" of the TM movement to see how it was 
really run. He's never seen course leaders trying to sneak people who have had 
nervous breakdowns or who have attempted suicide on courses out of the country 
so that nothing makes the evening news. He's never been there when the people 
who commissioned courses like the one at Poland Spring back in the early days 
discover that the people running the kitchen were buying spoiled and 
near-spoiled produce to feed to the course participants because it was cheaper 
-- *and then told them to keep doing it*, because the alternative would have 
cost them more money. He's never been there when Maharishi told people not to 
pay law firms and PR firms that the TM movement had contracted with because the 
results of the court case or the PR attempt they'd contracted for didn't turn 
out the way he expected it to. He's never been asked to carry a suitcase of 
money back to India to give to Maharishi's relatives. 

 

 The only thing I think he *has* seen are the fantasies running around in his 
head, fantasies that he *desperately* needs to believe are true to justify all 
the belief and proselytizing and money he's thrown their way for decades. He's 
desperate to believe "the science" NOT because he really believes it'll 
convince other people or the public, but because he's desperate to convince 
*himself* that he hasn't wasted his life on bullshit sold to him by a con man. 
He is the perfect -- and only -- target audience for all of that bullshit 
"science." 

 

 Sad, but that's what happens when you turn your mind over to someone early in 
life and then never have the balls to take it back. 

 

 So much time and wasted energy berating others for some perceived error on 
their part and here you are obsessed with critiquing Lawson (or anyone else) 
who doesn't exhibit black and white opinions on a subject. Always demeaning, 
always the same, Bawwy. For a subject you figure you have enough "balls" to 
have moved past you are certainly heavily invested and compulsively driven to

on people at a discount price to get feedback for the brochures. I predicted to 
all who would listen (not many) that it would work out to have the same 
effectiveness as a placebo, I thought it might be better slightly because of 
the self-selecting group of volunteers but no, a placebo it is. Was it removed 
from the Marshy catalogue of products? No. 
 

 And nor was anything else that gets sold based on the myth of vedic 
superiority, like yagyas or just plain ayurveda itself. I still get monthly 
notices that an expert in this "world's greatest system of natural healthcare" 
is visiting the country with his "time tested" formulas for perfect health. The 
fact that the TMO has been sued many times because of poisonous medicines isn't 
mentioned anywhere. And the first thing any sensible ayurvedic doctor does when 
a patient gets ill is recommend they go to a specialist! They often ignore that 
advice and effectively kill themselves by relying on rasayanas but that's 
brainwashing for you.
 

 You couldn't make this stuff up. But people really honestly believe it still 
regardless of the contrary evidence. At best it's folie a deux, at worst they 
know damn well that Marshy products, like yagyas or amrit kalash, aren't any 
better than not doing anything at all and should quit it.
 

 

 PS "Time tested". What does that even mean?

 Well, "enlightened" is such a vague term. 

 Fred Travis' studies on enlightened TMers (preliminary CC) don't assert that 
they are perfect, only that they report a certain kind of internal "experience" 
and that there is a physiological pattern associated with the self-reports. It 
says nothing about whether they are correct in everything that they do.
 

 That was Maharishi's thing: to assert that enlightened people (meeting his 
definition) were going to be perfect in some way.
 

 As for spin-doctoring, this assertion from you has no basis in fact, but is 
merely your desire to show that Maharishi was a bad person, rather than merely 
wrong about something:
 

 The more likely cause of these folks deaths are that Marshy
didn't know a damn thing about ayurveda and simply used
it as another spring board to financial comfort for Marshy
and family. The fact that he used human lives in his hunt
for fame and comfort is I am sure incidental to Indian
sensibilities but seems rather cavalier to us in the
West.

   Well... at least they
 aren't running the streets and being hit by cars then
 neglected. However, the TMO did neglect the
 Jersey steers they bought to graze the land at the Capitol
 in Navasota. One steer
 gouged the eye of another while feeding and no veterinarian
 was ever called to treat the wound. The three steers
 wondered off the property due to poor(cheap) fencing,
 damaged a neighbor's property and was claimed by the
 neighbor in compensation,
 I'm sure to end up in their freezer.< I had begged
 the managers *not* to buy the calves or any other animals to
 graze the land because I feared something of this nature
  would happen, I knew the fencing would be inadequate
 to keep them on the property but I feared them getting on to
 a road and causing a major accident, opening the TMO to a wrongful death
 lawsuit. But nooo, they would be
 so cute and useful and would only cost a few dollars and if
 something bad happens to them... well, it's just their
 karma and *we* shouldn't interfere. On Monday, April 28,

 With the demise and succession of the WWII generation farmer

 humans being
 much close at all to any animal husbandry with large mammals
 anymore.
 You can see this now compared even  to five and ten years
 ago at
 the County level and State Fairs.   There are not nearly any
 animal
 projects now with the end of mixed agricultural family
 farming and the collapse of those farmsteads out on the
 landscape. Farm operation is all going to growing
 gasohol and corporate animal feeding.  It is really quite
 stunning to
 see the collapse of diversified agriculture in such a short
 period of
 time.
 Care-taking
 large animals has always
 been an important practical and spiritual schooling in
 humanity, a laboratory cultivating in skill sets towards
 being a good human being.  It just
 does not work well with animals unless you are a good
 person.  Taking
 care of animals is always an exercise in humanity.  Any
 effective
 leader of humanity in history it seems characteristically
 was once a
 care-taker of large animals, a  sheep or goat herder child,
 herdsmen
 with cows, bullocks,  horses, elephants. Just using a buggy
 horse to
 drive the long district court circuit like an Abraham
 Lincoln.  With
 equines, like a Grant, Churchill, Marshall, Pershing,
 Patton, Truman,
 Eisenhower, Reagan each.
 ...practiced
 at being good at  being a
 good human being in skill sets taking care of animals in
 nature.That has mostly come to and end.
 Inside of 50 years this is a huge change in the relationship
 of
 humans with large nature.  Now great leadership is only
 incubated and

  social -science, law and

 I
 hope always that city people will
 support small farming and people who raise livestock on
 their own
 independent of the corporations.  The opening of America to
 small farms and the opportunity
 for ownership was always what made America what it was.  In
 the last
 few years with this aggregation taking place in large
 corporate
 agriculture and land-holding consolidation that has ended.

Re: [FairfieldLife] Re: Brahmachari Girish Varma Ji is to be praised

What a crashingly stupid paragraph. There were, of course (as Barry knows), 
umpty obits published after MMY died. As I recall, quite a few of them were 
posted or linked to here. Some were biased negatively, some were biased 
positively, some were nicely balanced. I probably did critique one of the 
negatively biased ones, but Barry's pretense that I was "pretending" it was 
biased is just laughable.
 

 Nor does he know what "most people on the planet" think of Maharishi, if they 
think of him at all. Many of those who do have an opinion, however, most likely 
think what the media tells them to think; and especially in the U.S., the media 
assumes that Eastern guru-types are all swindlers and portrays them as 
negatively as they can manage. So the point Barry thinks he's making is 
absurdly circular.
 

 

 

 

 The fascinating thing from my point of view is that Lawson seems to actually 
believe that the things you, I, Curtis, and Michael say are some kind of 
"fringe" opinions spouted by those with a grudge against the TM movement. That 
belief *alone* is True Believerism to the max. It's like when someone (I think 
the Judester) pretended that the obit article written at the time of 
Maharishi's death and posted here was "biased." It really wasn't. It was HOW 
MOST PEOPLE ON THE PLANET VIEW MAHARISHI MAHESH YOGI.

[FairfieldLife] Re: Heaven on Earth for all Mankind

2014-04-28 Thread dhamiltony2k5

Yesterday I drove by a farm north of Fairfield, Iowa a ways out on the Pleasant 
Plain road where they were taking down a farm's field fence, out with dozers 
rolling up rods of good field fence just to be able to plow up to the road edge 
and plant more gasohol. Livestock gone.
 

 We are witnessing the end of an epoch. With the demise and succession of the 
WWII generation farmer of 360 acre farms and the consolidation to 720acres and 
1080acre farms to 3, 4, 7,16,000 acre holdings comes the end of very many 
humans being much close at all to any animal husbandry with large mammals 
anymore. You can see this now compared even to five and ten years ago at the 
County level and State Fairs. There are not nearly any animal projects now with 
the end of mixed agricultural family farming and the collapse of those 
farmsteads out on the landscape. Farm operation is all going to growing gasohol 
and corporate animal feeding. It is really quite stunning to see the collapse 
of diversified agriculture in such a short period of time.
 
 Care-taking large animals has always been an important practical and spiritual 
schooling in humanity, a laboratory cultivating in skill sets towards being a 
good human being. It just does not work well with animals unless you are a good 
person. Taking care of animals is always an exercise in humanity. Any effective 
leader of humanity in history it seems characteristically was once a care-taker 
of large animals, a sheep or goat herder child, herdsmen with cows, bullocks, 
horses, elephants. Just using a buggy horse to drive the long district court 
circuit like an Abraham Lincoln. With equines, like a Grant, Churchill, 
Marshall, Pershing, Patton, Truman, Eisenhower, Reagan each.
 
 ...practiced at being good at being a good human being in skill sets taking 
care of animals in nature.
 That has mostly come to and end. Inside of 50 years this is a huge change in 
the relationship of humans with large nature. Now great leadership is only 
incubated and left to come out of what? Internet and social media forums, 
social -science, law and business schools, and some on-the-job or interning 
experience. May the Unified Field Transcendent help us.
 
 I hope always that city people will support small farming and people who raise 
livestock on their own independent of the corporations. The opening of America 
to small farms and the opportunity for ownership was always what made America 
what it was. In the last few years with this aggregation taking place in large 
corporate agriculture and land-holding consolidation that has ended. May the 
Unified Field Transcendent God save the country,

 "What about someone like Hitler. If he had
 meditated?"
 MAHARISHI: "He would have been
 more positive."
 REPORTER: "You really think you
 can change people's natures by
 meditating?"
 MAHARISHI: "The world is already
 a changed situation. One would not know
  what would have happened between the power blocs if
 Transcendental 
 Meditation was not raising the consciousness of the
 world."

 REPORTER:
 "What do you do for play?"
 MAHARISHI:
 "The whole life is play."
 REPORTER:
 "What do you do for amusement?"
 MAHARISHI:
  "Oh, this is great amusement when I talk about the
 unified field, laws 
 of nature, when I hear so many people are starting the
 courses. I am 
 doing two things. One, creating a softness in world
 consciousness. 
 Second, training leadership."

 REPORTER:
 "Is what you are doing a game?"
 MAHARISHI:
 "It's a game."
 REPORTER: "Do you ever sit back
 and say, 'I've been playing this game for 25 years.
 I'm a millionaire. Gee, I'm a good
 player?'"
 MAHARISHI: "I don't play in
 the past. I always play in the present for a good
 future."

 REPORTER:
 "Do you want to take over the world?"
 MAHARISHI:
 "I have taken over already!"
 REPORTER:
 "How do you expect people to take you
 seriously?"
 MAHARISHI: "I don't because
 that is damage to my own message. Serious means under
 stress."
 REPORTER: "You don't think
 that you're just pulling off a beautiful job of fooling
 people?"
 MAHARISHI: "Those people who
 don't know better are always
  fools, but they will become better thinkers, better knowers
 with this 
 message."
 REPORTER: "Are you a snake-oil
 salesman?"
 MAHARISHI: "What is a snake
 oil?"
 REPORTER: "A panacea. Something
 that will solve all the ills of the world."

 "It's simplicity."

 REPORTER:
  "Do people create when they're sitting around
 feeling happiness bubble 
 up? How do you explain geniuses like Dostoevski who lived a
 miserable 
 life and created very much?"
 MAHARISHI:
 "He could have created much more if the environment was
 less stressed."
 REPORTER: "But he wrote about
 stress. He would have had nothing to write about if there
 hadn't been stress."
 MAHARISHI: "One could write
 about a pond, but that doesn't justify the existence of
 the pond or its utility."

 away?"
 MAHARISHI: "Right.
 Exactly."
 REPORTER: "Have you no
 shame?"
 MAHARISHI: "No shame, no
 weakness, no failure."

Re: [FairfieldLife] Sarah Palin Talks Tough to NRA

hey John, Warren's birthday is June 22, 1949. That makes her a Gemini and I bet 
she has Guru in its own sign.

PS Did you see that George Clooney and Amal Alumuddin are getting married. You 
read it here first at FFL (-:

I haven't seen Elizabeth Warren's chart.  Does anyone know of her birth data?

The Repugs have Sarah Palin, Paul Ryan, Chirs Christie, Ted Cruz, Marco 
Rubio, Bobby Jindal, Nikki Haley, Rick Perry and Rand Paul.

  Young audiences around the world are enjoying Finnish classics.Finland’s 
first independent, international literary agency 
representing Finnish authors, illustrators and publishers in 
international markets. "Global audiences cannot seem to get enough of Finnish 
children’s books. New 
translations are rolling off the presses worldwide in languages as 
diverse as Arabic, Norwegian and Hungarian"

Maharishi's Global Good News service views this news as a sign of rising 
positivity
