2015-06-18 Thread TurquoiseBee turquoi...@yahoo.com [FairfieldLife]
Thanks for pointing out the relevance of what I said in the "offending" post, 
Xeno. I'm going to paste it in below so that I can comment a bit further on its 
relevance -- not only to TM but to the person who reacted to what I said like a 
hysterical little girl.

  From: "anartax...@yahoo.com [FairfieldLife]" 

   
    David Lynch is a public figure in the TM movement, and worldwide. He is not 
part of the FFL Yahoo group. He is in a different category than members of this 
group. Criticism of Lynch as a public figure is fair game on-line and in the 
press as long as it is not libel. I feel this is NOT a violation of Yahoo group 
guidelines and you are overstepping your authority. I find it incredibly 
difficult to find any message even a couple of days old. Neo has made it very 
difficult to locate past messages. However, I did find that post. You have got 
to be kidding 'dhamiltonyk5'.
I believe I know someone who went on that course. That person did not get 
enlightened. I think that person is very gullible, based on considerations 
other than that person having gone on that course. Saying someone is gullible 
is a mere opinion, but it is something that could be backed up with evidence. 
Gullible: easily persuaded to believe something; credulous, naive, 
over-trusting, over-trustful, easily deceived, easily taken in, exploitable, 
dupable, impressionable, unsuspecting, un-suspicious, unwary, ingenuous, 
innocent, inexperienced, unworldly, green;
Furthermore, it was not a non sequitur, 'TurquoiseBee' was responding to a 
similar event of gullibility, providing what he thought was another example of 
the same, so it was germane to the conversation.
OK, here is what I originally wrote:
Thisis amazing. You read through this and you think, "How could anyonepossibly 
BE so gullible as to fall for this?" But then you think aboutpeople like David 
Lynch, who was so gullible he paid Maharishi a milliondollars so that he could 
attend an "Enlightenment Course," and thenMaharishi didn't even have the 
courtesy to show up in person to teachit.
More important, after this rap I have pasted in the entire content of the post 
I was replying to. I suggest that people take the time to read it, for several 
reasons. First, they'll see that my reply was very much on topic, and dealt 
with a level of gullibility (in the article) that was almost unimaginable. WHO, 
after all could possibly BE so gullible as to have still believed this 
charlatan after all of these events,*including* the actual death of the person 
he'd hired her to make her fall in love with him. This story boggles the mind, 
because it is difficult for sane people to even imagine this level of 
gullibility. 

Second, I brought up an even *greater* example of gullibility. The poor boob in 
the story below only paid $713,975 to his charlatan, whereas David Lynch paid a 
*million fucking bucks* to Maharishi to attend an "Enlightenment Course." 
That's pretty gullible in itself. Much MORE gullible, however, is that he 
arrived on that course to discover that Maharishi had so little respect for his 
students that he didn't even plan to show up to *teach* this course, even 
though the participants had each paid him a million fucking bucks to attend. 
Now THAT is a level of charlatanry that the Manhattan Fortuneteller in the 
story below never imagined. 

But the most important point in all of this is that the poor schmuck in 
Brooklyn was so gullible that he found ways to *keep* believing in the 
charlatan, long after he should have realized that she was taking him to the 
cleaners. SO DID DAVID LYNCH. 

Lynch *could* have shaken himself awake and said to himself, "OK, you got 
taken. You got hornswoggled into paying this guy a million fucking dollars and 
he doesn't even show up at the course. Best I should just enjoy the rest of the 
course and then go home and forget how badly I was ripped off." But he DIDN'T 
say this to himself. In fact, when he got home, he dived into being essentially 
a full-time shill for the same man who had just swindled him out of a million 
dollars, *helping him to swindle others*. 

So WHY does me pointing this out affect one person on this forum so much that 
he forsakes every pretense of sanity and attempts to abuse his position as 
moderator to PUNISH me for pointing it out?
Because this is HIS story, too. 

The person losing his shit over these two examples of EXTREME gullibility is 
himself arguably the most gullible person on this forum. 

Just look at his history. All of these years without a shred of evidence that 
the TMSP actually *does* anything, and he still clings to the belief that it 
does. He's still so desperate to be allowed into the domes that he ignores 
completely that the people who run them have systematically attempted to (and 
succeeded in) throwing him out of them. He still defends the fictional goals of 
the TM movement even as he rants against the people who run that movement. 

So that's my theory

 I doubt Buck will see that as anything other than a slur, however true it is.
 

 I don't think Buck is mentally ill either. He seems to be a functioning member 
of the community - two in fact, the Iowa farming community and the TMO. I very 
much doubt Rick - who knows him infinitely better than either of us - would 
leave him in charge if he doubted his ability to cope.
 

 That he is out of his depth and isn't the man for the job is obvious though. 
You really can't delete posts because you disagree with the content, even if 
you've got a set of guidelines you can fiddle around with to fit things into. I 
think he just might have gotten the point about that. 
 

 He'll have to find some other way of removing his "apostates".

use of someone's legal name on FFL is an invasion of privacy as it also is 
considered a violation of the yahoo-groups guidelines here. Expect to have your

your membership revoked if such invasion of people's privacy continues either 
as by impulse without intent or with meditated intent to abuse someone by

 For instance, as people signing on to FFL do post and people do respond with

While you are entitled to your opinion, feste, I think you are forgetting what 
my post was drawing attention TO. That is, someone actually trying to DEFINE 
the "moderation" of an Internet forum by comparing it to being a cop dealing 
with an unruly crowd of "rough looking people" and being "forced" to shoot them 
when they don't do what the cops want. 

In retrospect, we now know how close this analogy is to the way he actually 
tried to handle the task of "moderation" himself. 
When he can't find any legitimate reason to delete the posting privileges of 
the person he doesn't like, he just makes one up and fires away. How Waco of 
him.
At least we should probably be grateful that he has *demonstrated* what he 
means by "some assertion of moderation" to us, and that it doesn't actually 
involve firearms. Yet.

    I agree with Curtis on this one, but TurquoiseB is in fact lucky still to 
be here. He should have been given a red card some weeks ago when he falsely 
accused, in a specially created subject line, another FFL member of advocating 
murder on this forum and giving that poster's real name, at a time when that 
poster was using an anonymous handle. TurquoiseB did this deliberately to 
defame the individual concerned forever via the Google search engine. He 
actually gloated over this very point. If that was not a malicious action then 
the word has no meaning. He should have been expelled. I believe he later 
deleted his own post but some of the damage had already been done.

[FairfieldLife] What a sane moderator of Fairfield Life would do at this point

2015-06-18 Thread TurquoiseBee turquoi...@yahoo.com [FairfieldLife]
In four words (with no brackets or ellipses to pretend I'm not cursing when I 
am), given the events of the last few days what I believe a moderator of 
Fairfield Life would do if they were truly sane is: 

    SHUT THE FUCK UP 

Y'know...sorta like what Alex is doing, and has been doing all along. 

Progress HAS been made. I think that all of us have become more aware of what 
the actual Yahoo-Groups Guidelines are. Just as important, we have become more 
aware of what they ARE NOT. 

They are NOT about censoring content, as someone attempted to do last night. As 
Curtis pointed out, they are also NOT about censoring language, because that's 
a non-issue -- Yahoo has never in its history had any problem with someone 
saying Fuck or Fuckin' on any of its forums. The real guidelines do NOT have 
anything to do with not being able to legitimately criticize public figures. 
And they do NOT say that people have to submit to what some self-appointed Nazi 
tells them to do or not do, just because he calls himself a "moderator." 

The most important of the *real* Yahoo-Groups Guidelines -- in my opinion as a 
long-term member of this forum -- is the one that a sane moderator has the best 
chance of actually enforcing:  "Avoid personalized invective." 
That's IT. 

SHUT THE FUCK UP about everything else. 
If you have the shitty karma to have been named as a moderator of Fairfield 
Life, suck it up and put on your big boy pants and try to actually accomplish 
something useful instead of just bitching and moaning all the time. 

Enforce the "personalized invective" guideline by quietly deleting any post 
that REALLY crosses that line. Avoid trying to police the use of "invective, 
period," because that's a lost cause -- EVERYONE here goes on a rant from time 
to time and hurls invective at the people they don't like. You can't stop it 
because it's human nature. Instead, focus on the "personalized" part -- if 
posters get their panties in a bunch, they should try not to lash out at *other 
posters on Fairfield Life* by aiming invective at them. 

THIS is enforceable. If you're a moderator, get the fuck over your own ego and 
stick with THIS guideline. Quietly delete any post you feel hurls invective at 
or attempts to harass a current poster on Fairfield Life, and then just as 
quietly write the person whose post you've deleted an email saying that you did 
it, and why you did it. That's it -- end of intervention. 

I would have NO PROBLEM with this approach to "moderation" on FFL. I will aid 
any moderator in helping to enforce this general guideline by trying to indulge 
in as little "personalized invective" as possible. 

On the other hand, I have MANY PROBLEMS with censorship of either ideas or 
language, and will fight anyone attempting to impose them tooth and nail. 

Your call. 

If you ARE actually sane, you'll take the increased recognition of actual Yahoo 
guidelines here and run with it, and stop trying to preach to people. Do your 
job in this one actually enforceable area, and SHUT THE FUCK UP about 
everything else, and the forum will actually become the "better place" you 
*claim* you want it to be. 

Keep up the nonsense you've been attempting so far, and it won't. 
Simple as that.

 Similarly no one really wants the place to disappear because Rick gets fed up 
with the burden of owning it, but imposing the Yahoo guidelines like they are 
carved in stone is a silly idea, especially when they seem so flexible we could 
probably delete even Cardemeister if we had a mind to.
 

 The FFL homepage tells you all you really need to know about it. And 
hopefully, I've stuck to it enough not to be considered a pain in the arse - 
except by the ludicrously over-sensitive. But like everyone, this week has made 
me aware of the reaction hitting "send" can have. I shall try and heed the 
guidelines without diluting myself. But moderation has to be carried out 
equitably, using it as a censorship tool is just wrong.
 

 Hopefully the dust will quickly settle and we can all get down to the serious 
business of talking about dinosaurs again.

The simple guideline I suggest would do wonders to "clean up the vibe" of 
Fairfield Life, if for no other reason because it would force people to try to 
deal with IDEAS instead of PERSONALITIES. Over the years, for many reasons, 
people have become lazy, and tend to reply to *ideas* they don't like by trying 
to discredit the person who wrote those ideas. Shouting "You're a poopy pants!" 
is NOT dealing with ideas like an adult. Hopefully if people pay attention to

Similarly no one really wants the place to disappear because Rick gets fed up 
with the burden of owning it, but imposing the Yahoo guidelines like they are 
carved in stone is a silly idea, especially when they seem so flexible we could 
probably delete even Cardemeister if we had a mind to.
The FFL homepage tells you all you really need to know about it. And hopefully, 
I've stuck to it enough not to be considered a pain in the arse - except by the 
ludicrously over-sensitive. But like everyone, this week has made me aware of 
the reaction hitting "send" can have. I shall try and heed the guidelines 
without diluting myself. But moderation has to be carried out equitably

    I agree with Curtis on this one, but TurquoiseB is in fact lucky still to 
be here. He should have been given a red card some weeks ago when he falsely 
accused, in a specially created subject line, another FFL member of advocating 
murder on this forum and giving that poster's real name, at a time when that 
poster was using an anonymous handle. TurquoiseB did this deliberately to 
defame the individual concerned forever via the Google search engine. He 
actually gloated over this very point. If that was not a malicious action then 
the word has no meaning. He should have been expelled. I believe he later 
deleted his own post but some of the damage had already been done.

 You areattempting to censor content to your own subjective

is also a misread of the intentions of the guidelines which does not address 
this at all since adding new points is the nature of a public forum. Calling it 
"exploitative" is also a misread of the meaning of the word. Barry is 
"exploiting" nothing by posting his opinion about a public figure and his

believes this is an outrageous comment that needs the intervention of 
moderators:

What Barry actually wrote:

Thisis amazing. You read through this and you think, "How could anyonepossibly

Lynch, who was so gullible he paid Maharishi a milliondollars so that he could

 I like Lynch's films.  I also being in the arts myself know how some 
artists think and Lynch has found TM useful and doesn't want to be bothered 
doing anything else.  I'm sure some of his artist friends have told him there 
are better things out there but he doesn't care, he just wants to get on with 
his art.  OTOH, I've known MUM Vedic Studies grads who like to explore other 
paths too.

    David Lynch is a public figure in the TM movement, and worldwide. He is 
not part of the FFL Yahoo group. He is in a different category than members of 
this group. Criticism of Lynch as a  public figure is fair game on-line and in 
the press as long as it is not libel. I feel this is NOT a violation of Yahoo 
group guidelines and you are overstepping your authority. I find it  incredibly 
difficult to find any message even a couple of days old. Neo has made it very 
difficult to locate past messages. However, I did find that post. You have got 
to be kidding  'dhamiltonyk5'. 
  I believe I know someone who went on that course. That person did not get  
enlightened. I think that person is very gullible, based on considerations 
other than that person having gone on that course. Saying someone is gullible 
is a mere opinion, but it is something that could be backed up with evidence. 
Gullible: easily persuaded to believe something; credulous, naive, 
over-trusting, over-trustful, easily deceived, easily taken in,  exploitable, 
dupable, impressionable, unsuspecting, un-suspicious, unwary, ingenuous, 
innocent, inexperienced, unworldly, green; 
  Furthermore, it was not a non sequitur, 'TurquoiseBee' was responding to a 
similar event of gullibility, providing what he  thought was another example of 
the same, so it was germane to the conversation. 
  We have all been taken in by something in our lives. There are a lot of us  
who feel that the TMO has taken advantage of people's inexperience in certain 
areas of life, and that  as a spiritual movement, it and those supporting it 
have in some ways gone off track. 
  And if you have ever watched all of David Lynch's work, he is a pretty weird 
guy by most normal person standards. 
  And that post was over 10 days ago. A moderator is supposed to be doing this 
more or less in real time, dealing with current 'offences', like the broadcast 
loop delay on  live broadcasts a moderator can delete certain words in almost 
real time. This example is more like the Inquisition looking for someone as a 
scapegoat. 
  I think anyone who took a course for a fee like that is out of their mind. 
Even worse than gullible. Unless they are thinking of it as a conscious 
donation to a cause they believe is  real, it seems to lack judgement.

 Last week, there was a fatal shooting at the Coral Ridge Mall, up in 
Coralville, which is right next to Iowa City. The shooter was a mall security 
guy who had been fired earlier in the day for sexual harassment; the victim was 
the poor girl he was harassing. His Facebook page, now removed, was full of

 Thanks for replying, Salyavin. You make excellent points, plus the fact that 
you have replied to my post makes it more difficult for someone to suddenly 
make it disappear if he turns out *not* to appreciate the fact that we're both 
*trying to help him*.  :-)

 

 The simple guideline I suggest would do wonders to "clean up the vibe" of 
Fairfield Life, if for no other reason because it would force people to try to 
deal with IDEAS instead of PERSONALITIES. Over the years, for many reasons, 
people have become lazy, and tend to reply to *ideas* they don't like by trying 
to discredit the person who wrote those ideas. Shouting "You're a poopy pants!" 
is NOT dealing with ideas like an adult. Hopefully if people pay attention to 
what we're suggesting they'll do this less...
 

 Yup, exactly. I think I phrased it a while back as "people who contribute 
constructively rather than logging on just to rag on people" Everyone else is 
fine by me no matter what they think.
 

 In fact the more far out people's ideas are the more it makes me try to 
justify to myself what it is I actually think about things and why. That's a 
major service that FFL has provided, for me at least.

 In four words (with no brackets or ellipses to pretend I'm not cursing when I 
am), given the events of the last few days what I believe a moderator of 
Fairfield Life would do if they were truly sane is: 

 

 SHUT THE FUCK UP 

 

 Y'know...sorta like what Alex is doing, and has been doing all along. 

 

 Progress HAS been made. I think that all of us have become more aware of what 
the actual Yahoo-Groups Guidelines are. Just as important, we have become more 
aware of what they ARE NOT. 

 

 They are NOT about censoring content, as someone attempted to do last night. 
As Curtis pointed out, they are also NOT about censoring language, because 
that's a non-issue -- Yahoo has never in its history had any problem with 
someone saying Fuck or Fuckin' on any of its forums. The real guidelines do NOT 
have anything to do with not being able to legitimately criticize public 
figures. And they do NOT say that people have to submit to what some 
self-appointed Nazi tells them to do or not do, just because he calls himself a 
"moderator." 

 

 The most important of the *real* Yahoo-Groups Guidelines -- in my opinion as a 
long-term member of this forum -- is the one that a sane moderator has the best 
chance of actually enforcing:  "Avoid personalized invective." 
 

 That's IT. 

 

 SHUT THE FUCK UP about everything else. 
 

 If you have the shitty karma to have been named as a moderator of Fairfield 
Life, suck it up and put on your big boy pants and try to actually accomplish 
something useful instead of just bitching and moaning all the time. 

 

 Enforce the "personalized invective" guideline by quietly deleting any post 
that REALLY crosses that line. Avoid trying to police the use of "invective, 
period," because that's a lost cause -- EVERYONE here goes on a rant from time 
to time and hurls invective at the people they don't like. You can't stop it 
because it's human nature. Instead, focus on the "personalized" part -- if 
posters get their panties in a bunch, they should try not to lash out at *other 
posters on Fairfield Life* by aiming invective at them. 

 

 THIS is enforceable. If you're a moderator, get the fuck over your own ego and 
stick with THIS guideline. Quietly delete any post you feel hurls invective at 
or attempts to harass a current poster on Fairfield Life, and then just as 
quietly write the person whose post you've deleted an email saying that you did 
it, and why you did it. That's it -- end of intervention. 

 

 I would have NO PROBLEM with this approach to "moderation" on FFL. I will aid 
any moderator in helping to enforce this general guideline by trying to indulge 
in as little "personalized invective" as possible. 

 

 On the other hand, I have MANY PROBLEMS with censorship of either ideas or 
language, and will fight anyone attempting to impose them tooth and nail. 

 

 Your call. 

 

 If you ARE actually sane, you'll take the increased recognition of actual 
Yahoo guidelines here and run with it, and stop trying to preach to people. Do 
your job in this one actually enforceable area, and SHUT THE FUCK UP about 
everything else, and the forum will actually become the "better place" you 
*claim* you want it to be. 

 

 Keep up the nonsense you've been attempting so far, and it won't. 
 

 Simple as that. 

 

 

 And it is that simple. No one really wants FFL to have it's teeth pulled to 
the extent they can't express honest opinion or the occasional rant without 
getting paranoid. 
 

 Similarly no one really wants the place to disappear because Rick gets fed up

David Lynch is a public figure in the TM movement, and worldwide. He 
is not part of the FFL Yahoo group. He is in a different category 
than members of this group. Criticism of Lynch as a public figure is 
fair game on-line and in the press as long as it is not libel. I feel 
this is NOT a violation of Yahoo group guidelines and you are 
overstepping your authority. I find it incredibly difficult to find 
any message even a couple of days old. Neo has made it very difficult 
to locate past messages. However, I did find that post. You have got 
to be kidding 'dhamiltonyk5'.


I believe I know someone who went on that course. That person did not 
get enlightened. I think that person is very gullible, based on 
considerations otherthan that person having gone on that course. 
Saying someone is gullible is a mere opinion, but it is something 
that could be backed up with evidence. Gullible: easily persuaded to 
believe something;credulous, naive, over-trusting, over-trustful, 
easily deceived, easily taken in, exploitable, dupable, 
impressionable, unsuspecting, un-suspicious, unwary, ingenuous, 
innocent, inexperienced, unworldly, green;


Furthermore, it was not a non sequitur, 'TurquoiseBee' was responding 
to a similar event of gullibility, providing what he thought was 
another example of the same, so it was germane to the conversation.


We have all been taken in by something in our lives. There are a lot 
of us who feel that the TMO has taken advantage of people's 
inexperience in certain areas of life, and that as a spiritual 
movement, it and those supporting it have in some ways gone off track.


And if you have ever watched all of David Lynch's work, he is a 
pretty weird guy by most normal person standards.


And that post was over 10 days ago. A moderator is supposed to be 
doing this more or less in real time, dealing with current 
'offences', like the broadcast loop delay on live broadcasts a 
moderator can delete certain words in almost real time. This example 
is more like the Inquisition looking for someone as a scapegoat.


I think anyone who took a course for a fee like that is out of their 
mind. Even worse than gullible. Unless they are thinking of it as a 
conscious donation to a cause they believe is real, it seems to lack 
judgement.

A web site you would never go to InfoWars.com you might think would be

Buzz Aldrin who said it wasn't faked but says there is some strange 
stuff up there.  Ever wonder why we haven't gone back or sent more 
robotic vehicles?

Out of 1570 registered users. 

So why does this tiny, tiny, tiny segment of the FFL population require

I like Lynch's films.  I also being in the arts myself know how some 
artists think and Lynch has found TM useful and doesn't want to be 
bothered doing anything else.  I'm sure some of his artist friends 
have told him there are better things out there but he doesn't care, 
he just wants to get on with his art. OTOH, I've known MUM Vedic 
Studies grads who like to explore other paths too.


But I hear that all seasons of the Andy Griffith Show are available

David Lynch is a public figure in the TM movement, and worldwide. He 
is not part of the FFL Yahoo group. He is in a different category 
than members of this group. Criticism of Lynch as a public figure is 
fair game on-line and in the press as long as it is not libel. I 
feel this is NOT a violation of Yahoo group guidelines and you are 
overstepping your authority. I find it incredibly difficult to find 
any message even a couple of days old. Neo has made it very 
difficult to locate past messages. However, I did find that post. 
You have got to be kidding 'dhamiltonyk5'.


I believe I know someone who went on that course. That person did 
not get enlightened. I think that person is very gullible, based on 
considerations otherthan that person having gone on that course. 
Saying someone is gullible is a mere opinion, but it is something 
that could be backed up with evidence. Gullible: easily persuaded to 
believe something;credulous, naive, over-trusting, over-trustful, 
easily deceived, easily taken in, exploitable, dupable, 
impressionable, unsuspecting, un-suspicious, unwary, ingenuous, 
innocent, inexperienced, unworldly, green;


Furthermore, it was not a non sequitur, 'TurquoiseBee' was 
responding to a similar event of gullibility, providing what he 
thought was another example of the same, so it was germane to the 
conversation.


We have all been taken in by something in our lives. There are a lot 
of us who feel that the TMO has taken advantage of people's 
inexperience in certain areas of life, and that as a spiritual 
movement, it and those supporting it have in some ways gone off track.


And if you have ever watched all of David Lynch's work, he is a 
pretty weird guy by most normal person standards.


And that post was over 10 days ago. A moderator is supposed to be 
doing this more or less in real time, dealing with current 
'offences', like the broadcast loop delay on live broadcasts a 
moderator can delete certain words in almost real time. This example 
is more like the Inquisition looking for someone as a scapegoat.

 A web site you would never go to InfoWars.com you might think would be big "on 
going to the moon was faked."  But Alex Jones is a friend of Buzz Aldrin who 
said it wasn't faked but says there is some strange stuff up there.  
 

 Ever wonder why we haven't gone back or sent more robotic vehicles?
 

 Mostly because once we'd shown the Ruskies we were better than them there 
wasn't a lot of point other than doing boring old science.because it's a 
heinously expensive place to get men to and we already have some moon rocks to 
look at.
 

 And we don't have a base there because of the lack of water which is very 
heavy and we need loads every day, adding enormously to the cost of the mission.
 

 Why no drones? I imagine because there are so many other projects all 
clamouring for funds. We might find life on Jupiter's moons, that's got to be a 
more important priority than looking at stuff we've already looked at, no 
matter how good the Earth looks from up there.
 

 But I believe China have plans for a manned mission, and India too.
 

 Unless I'm a victim of a NASA conspiracy of silence over this alleged strange 
stuff. But why would Buzz tell Alex Jones and not the BBC when he was on their 
Stargazing Live programme last month?
 

 I read his book The Men From Earth too. No mention of strange stuff there 
either but it's amazing enough anyway. His description of doing a spacewalk and 
floating out of the hatchway and seeing the Earth as a giant blue green marble 
slowly turning in space and realising that night and day are a straight line 
running down the middle stands with the finest literature.

 Bizarre that NASA would wipe the original tapes of man's greatest achievement

Great thread topic. 

I had been amicably divorced from the TMO for many years when I stumbled upon 
alt.meditation.transcendental on the Usenet. That was a real wake-up call for 
me because I had last even *thought about* the TM movement back in 1979. 
Participating on that forum I discovered that not only were there still people 
who believed in the stuff TM sold, they believed in it with such an intense, 
aberrant fervor that they were willing to stalk you into the next incarnation 
to "protect" their beliefs.  :-)
At some point during my a.m.t. experience, someone mentioned FFL. I knew 
nothing about it, and *assumed* that it was a TM TB forum, and that it wouldn't 
be of any interest to me. For a lark, I applied to FFL with that assumption 
firmly in mind, and thus was pleasingly surprised when Rick not only accepted 
me, but asked in his first post whether I was Uncle Tantra, the author of a 
book I had previously considered beyond the reach of TM practitioners. I 
admitted it, and he accepted me anyway. 

Kismet. I realized my folly immediately, and began to participate on this forum 
as the free speech forum it was intended to be. I enjoyed that until a small 
number of people realized that they couldn't actually make any rational 
arguments to dispute the "heretics" who posted on FFL, so they decided to drive 
them away instead. 

Consider me extremely pleased to see recent events, and "the shoe on the other 
foot."

No, he's actually saying people should become responsible parents.  IOW, he's 
saying to the Third World countries, and even the developed ones for that 
matter, not to have any more babies if they can't afford to raise them.  He's 
recommending the use the natural means of avoiding pregnancies, such as 
abstinence and the rhythm method. 

 This is one of the reasons why he'll never accept gay marriages and 
polyamorous relationships that are the fad these days.

A web site you would never go to InfoWars.com you might think would be 
big "on going to the moon was faked."  But Alex Jones is a friend of 
Buzz Aldrin who said it wasn't faked but says there is some strange 
stuff up there.


Ever wonder why we haven't gone back or sent more robotic vehicles?

Mostly because once we'd shown the Ruskies we were better than them 
there wasn't a lot of point other than doing boring old 
science.because it's a heinously expensive place to get men to and we 
already have some moon rocks to look at.


This day in age we can find cheap ways of getting there and folks 
(mainly private industry) have been working on it.  Who knows if private 
industry succeeded in creating a functional moon project would the gov 
allow it.  If they didn't that would be a dead giveaway there's 
something up there they don't want known.




And we don't have a base there because of the lack of water which is 
very heavy and we need loads every day, adding enormously to the cost 
of the mission.


Why no drones? I imagine because there are so many other projects all 
clamouring for funds. We might find life on Jupiter's moons, that's 
got to be a more important priority than looking at stuff we've 
already looked at, no matter how good the Earth looks from up there.


But I believe China have plans for a manned mission, and India too.

Unless I'm a victim of a NASA conspiracy of silence over this alleged 
strange stuff. But why would Buzz tell Alex Jones and not the BBC wh! 
en he was on their Stargazing Live programme last month?


I  said "up there" not necessarily the moon. Aldrin claims to have seen 
UFOs in space.  The main reason I mentioned Alex Jones you might expect 
his site to support the idea of a phony moon landing but it doesn't.




I read his book/The Men From Earth/ too. No mention of strange stuff 
there either but it's amazing enough anyway. His description of doing 
a spacewalk and floating out of the hatchway and seeing the Earth as a 
giant blue green marble slowly turning in space and realising that 
night and day are a straight line running down the middle stands with 
the finest literature.


You must've skipped the section on UFOs.  Must not disturb your maya. :-D

Someone could get all conspiratorial about that I'm sure, but it's

David Lynch is a public figure in the TM movement, and worldwide. He 
is not part of the FFL Yahoo group. He is in a different category 
than members of this group. Criticism of Lynch as a public figure is 
fair game on-line and in the press as long as it is not libel. I 
feel this is NOT a violation of Yahoo group guidelines and you are 
overstepping your authority. I find it incredibly difficult to find 
any message even a couple of days old. Neo has made it very 
difficult to locate past messages. However, I did find that post. 
You have got to be kidding 'dhamiltonyk5'.


I believe I know someone who went on that course. That person did 
not get enlightened. I think that person is very gullible, based on 
considerations otherthan that person having gone on that course. 
Saying someone is gullible is a mere opinion, but it is something 
that could be backed up with evidence. Gullible: easily persuaded to 
believe something;credulous, naive, over-trusting, over-trustful, 
easily deceived, easily taken in, exploitable, dupable, 
impressionable, unsuspecting, un-suspicious, unwary, ingenuous, 
innocent, inexperienced, unworldly, green;


Furthermore, it was not a non sequitur, 'TurquoiseBee' was 
responding to a similar event of gullibility, providing what he 
thought was another example of the same, so it was germane to the 
conversation.


We have all been taken in by something in our lives. There are a lot 
of us who feel that the TMO has taken advantage of people's 
inexperience in certain areas of life, and that as a spiritual 
movement, it and those supporting it have in some ways gone off track.


And if you have ever watched all of David Lynch's work, he is a 
pretty weird guy by most normal person standards.


And that post was over 10 days ago. A moderator is supposed to be 
doing this more or less in real time, dealing with current 
'offences', like the broadcast loop delay on live broadcasts a 
moderator can delete certain words in almost real time. This example 
is more like the Inquisition looking for someone as a scapegoat.


I think anyone who took a course for a fee like that is out of their 
mind. Even worse than gullible. Unless they are thinking of it as a 
conscious donation to a cause they believe is real, it seems to lack 
judgement.

[FairfieldLife] Re: How Did You Find FFL?

2015-06-18 Thread anartax...@yahoo.com [FairfieldLife]
I found FFL looking for an e-mail address for L.B. Shriver, this was in the 
early part of the 2000s. I did not join then as I had other things to do. After 
a half decade or so, I seem to recall looking for his address again, but he was 
in China, but I started to look at the site. I had some correspondence by 
e-mail with some other meditators, but the canned TB responses were as 
satisfying as eating sand, and FFL seemed interesting, as it turned out much 
more interesting than I had anticipated. I was greeted in a friendly way by 
authfriend, and some crazy Indian guy, and attacked by some other guy named 
after a blue insect. Shortly thereafter, those roles reversed. The blue insect 
made a prophesy, that a certain person, once disagreed with, would forever be 
an antagonist. This turned out to be mostly correct, though not 100% correct. 
Prophesy is a lousy business because it has to rely on idiots to succeed.

 A web site you would never go to InfoWars.com you might think would be big "on

 Ever wonder why we haven't gone back or sent more robotic vehicles?
 

 Mostly because once we'd shown the Ruskies we were better than them there 
wasn't a lot of point other than doing boring old science.because it's a 
heinously expensive place to get men to and we already have some moon rocks to 
look at.



 
 This day in age we can find cheap ways of getting there and folks (mainly 
private industry) have been working on it.  Who knows if private industry 
succeeded in creating a functional moon project would the gov allow it.  If 
they didn't that would be a dead giveaway there's something up there they don't 
want known. 
 What would it have to do with the government? they don't own it. And private 
firms have yet to get anything out of the Earths gravity, let alone humans to 
the moon. But I agree that a small, nimble company will get a design on the 
launch pad before a lumbering behemoth like NASA has even raised funding from 
congress. 
 
 
 
 And we don't have a base there because of the lack of water which is very 
heavy and we need loads every day, adding enormously to the cost of the mission.
 
 
 Why no drones? I imagine because there are so many other projects all 
clamouring for funds. We might find life on Jupiter's moons, that's got to be a 
more important priority than looking at stuff we've already looked at, no 
matter how good the Earth looks from up there.
 
 
 But I believe China have plans for a manned mission, and India too.
 
 
 Unless I'm a victim of a NASA conspiracy of silence over this alleged strange 
stuff. But why would Buzz tell Alex Jones and not the BBC wh! en he was on 
their Stargazing Live programme last month?





 
 I  said "up there" not necessarily the moon. Aldrin claims to have seen UFOs 
in space.  The main reason I mentioned Alex Jones you might expect his site to 
support the idea of a phony moon landing but it doesn't. That doesn't mean it 
did... Buzz could be a CIA man still playing the part of a guy who helped fool 
the Russians into spending billions on an impossible space programme.
 
 
 
 I read his book The Men From Earth too. No mention of strange stuff there 
either but it's amazing enough anyway. His description of doing a spacewalk and 
floating out of the hatchway and seeing the Earth as a giant blue green marble 
slowly turning in space and realising that night and day are a straight line 
running down the middle stands with the finest literature.






 
 You must've skipped the section on UFOs.  Must not disturb your maya. :-D 
 Read the book but don't remember any mention of alien spacecraft. I guess the 
term "UFO" gets misused a lot?

 I'd really like to see it too. If it's as "inflammatory" as the one Buck

 I'd also like to know on who's request did Rick delete this alleged post, Buck

I think you are referring to message 417082.  I just posted a listing of 
the last few days by the message numbers.  No, I can't mess with Neo.

Pope Francis: 'Revolution' needed to combat climate change
By Daniel Burke , CNN Religion Editor
Updated 4:10 PM ET, Thu June 18, 2015
| Video Source: CNN
(CNN)Pope Francis warned Thursday that modern trends -- from a heedless worship 
of technology to an addiction to fossil fuels and compulsive consumerism -- 
have swept the planet to the verge of a perilous "breaking point." 

"Doomsday predictions," the Pope said in a sharply worded manifesto, "can no 
longer be met with irony or disdain." 

Citing scientific consensus that we are witnessing a "disturbing warming" of 
the Earth, Francis embraced the view that humans are largely to blame for a 
dramatic change in the climate.

Nothing short of a "bold cultural revolution" can halt humanity's spiral into 
self-destruction, the Pope warned. 

"The Earth, our home, is beginning to look more and more like an immense pile 
of filth," Francis said. "In many parts of the planet, the elderly lament that 
once beautiful landscapes are now covered with rubbish."

The popular pontiff castigated big businesses, energy companies, short-sighted 
politicians, scurrilous scientists, laissez faire economists, indifferent 
individuals, callous Christians and myopic media professionals. Scarcely any 
area of society escapes his probing pen. 

Though it ends with a prayer, it is a deeply pessimistic statement, at least in 
parts, particularly from a spiritual leader known for his hopeful messages of 
mercy and openness. People no longer seem to believe that happy days lie ahead, 
the Pope lamented. 

Francis' challenging manifesto came Thursday in the form of an encyclical, a 
letter traditionally addressed from St. Peter's Square to the more than 1 
billion Catholics across the globe. Derived from the Greek word for "circle," 
an encyclical is among the church's most authoritative teaching documents.

But Francis has set his sights far beyond the circle of his church. With an eye 
toward several key climate change summits scheduled for later this year, the 
Pope said his letter is addressed to "every person living on this planet."

"I would like to enter a dialogue with all people about our common home," 
Francis said. 

Critique of modern life
The humble invitation belies the damning analysis of modern life contained in 
the 184-page encyclical, entitled "Laudato Si. 
"
 The archaic Italian phrase, which means "Praised Be To You," appears in the 
"Canticle of the Sun," a song penned by St. Francis, the patron saint of 
ecology. 

Read the full encyclical (PDF) 

Subtitled, "On Care for Our Common Home," the encyclical was published Thursday 
in at least five languages during a news conference at the Vatican. The 
document was more than a year in the making, church officials say, and draws on 
the work of dozens of scientists, theologians, scholars from various fields and 
previous popes. 

"We have a situation here," said Janos Pasztor, the U.N.'s assistant 
secretary-general for climate change, "in which science and religion are 
totally aligned." Pasztor was part of a team that convened with church 
officials at the Vatican this April.


Pope Francis 34 photos
EXPAND GALLERY
The Pope's eagerly awaited encyclical recycles some of the now-familiar themes 
of Francis' papacy: an abiding concern for the poor, a scorching critique of 
the idolatry of money and a facility for using evocative and earthy language to 
describe complex conundrums. 

As the first Pope from the developing world, Francis brings a moral vision 
shaped not in the seminaries of Europe but the slums of Buenos Aires, 
Argentina. 

With language ranging from the majestic (lyrical poetry in praise of nature) to 
the mundane (take the bus!), the Pope put his signature stamp on a 
controversial topic and moral clout on the line. 

"Laudato si" is long on laments and short on specific solutions, though the 
Pope repeatedly urges deep thinking and dialogue to address the complex 
symptoms now plaguing the planet. In broad strokes, Francis calls for a drastic 
change in "lifestyle, production and consumption" from superficial and 
unsustainable habits to more mature means of caring for "our common home."

"What kind of world do we want to leave to those who come after us, to children 
who are now growing up?" Francis asks. "The question not only concerns the 
environment in isolation; the issue cannot be approached piecemeal." 

And while the Pope calls for pra

Drinking too much would probably ruin your health and peace of mind.  Then, one 
has to spend additional money to stay in hospitals and rehabs for recovery.  It 
all comes down to freedom of the mind from attachments and suffering. IOW, 
transcend and perform actions in samadhi.

response to post #415487 by 'dh...' which remains on FFL for the moment, and in

 Post #415501 suggests that 'dh...' is prone to 'violent fantasies'.

Good luck with getting people to be responsible. Going to take some coercion  
for that. Not sure how they would do it third world countries but in our own, 
we could start by the government not paying people to be baby-mommas and 
baby-daddies and withholding entitlements from people off the program. You have 
a baby out of wedlock, you lose half of your SS benefits. Have another and you 
lose the other half. But... you still have to pay into the system. Nothing like

[FairfieldLife] Of sound mind

2015-06-18 Thread s3raph...@yahoo.com [FairfieldLife]
At the TM introductory lecture, the mantras are said to be ``meaningless sounds 
whose effects are known''. 
 

 Setting aside the vexed question of how meaningless they actually are 
(personally I like the idea that they are the vibration bodies of gods and 
goddesses), I always found the absence of "OM" (or "Aum") as a recommended 
syllable intriguing. 
 

 The official explanation was that OM was not suitable for householders (ie, 
most of us) and adopting it as one's mantra meant one ran the risk of turning 
into a world-denying hermit. Given that it is the most famous and revered 
Sanskrit mantra, do any FFLifers seriously believe that "favouring" the OM 
syllable (instead of one's allocated bija mantra) during meditation would cause 
harmful effects? Maybe MMY was keeping the kick-arse mantra for himself and 
we've been palmed off with the weak substitutes . . . 

 

 Anyone ever tried doing TM using OM? If so, did you notice any benefits?

Not sure, but I think OM was used for monks and nuns that learned TM.

Of course, if it was allowed, THEN I just let the cat out of the bag about the 
holy sacred secret mantras, and seeing as only Maharishi Mahesh Yogi can 
possibly tell what is bad or good about any mantra that ever was, then THE D of 
DOOM will erase this post..

Maybe.

I'm so confused.

All these posts are related to a March, 2014 post in which 'Buck' says to 'MJ' 
(the highlighted portion is the passage others fixated upon): 

 Spirituality, . ..stems from being initiated into TM
 MJ, you bet. More experience of the transcendent as the unified field is the 
basis of spiritual progress and transformation, call that cultivation a 
transcendent meditation however you want; transcending can go by different 
names culturally but it in large nature is all the same. These people were glad 
to have run in to TM as it was taught and started something for themselves 
then. Now, otherwise it is something else to wonder that you methodically 
dissuade your friends from meditating and rejoice in that. That you actively 
work to sink transcendental meditation and consciousness-based education.  That 
is incredibly anti-science and ultimately anti-spiritual. It is shocking and 
diabolical. I can empathize with Obama now. Were I President Obama securing the 
nation I'd have you straight-away on the drone list as a dangerous plotting 
enemy-combatant to civil society. I was going to suggest that may be you could 
get your own meditation checked for efficacy at transcendence.
 Kindly,

[FairfieldLife] Re: Of sound mind

2015-06-18 Thread s3raph...@yahoo.com [FairfieldLife]
Here's a thought: these bīja - "seed syllable" - mantras though not having 
precise meanings are said to carry connections to spiritual principles. Look 
again at our TMO mantras "whose effects are known".  

 Take one example. I won't mention the syllable (!) but one of the mantras used 
is that of Saraswati. She is the Hindu goddess of knowledge, music, arts, 
wisdom and learning. So surely someone who was given this bija and used it 
during TM would gravitate towards a life centred on science or the arts?
 

 There are charts published on the Net claiming that knowing someone is male or 
female; and knowing their age you can see which mantra they were given by their 
TM teacher. I don't know how reliable those charts are but wouldn't it be an 
impressive vindication of the TMO's claims if you could tell someone what his 
or her TM mantra was merely after studying their behaviour and interests!

[FairfieldLife] Local FF life news, implication of Bird Flu

2015-06-18 Thread dhamiltony...@yahoo.com [FairfieldLife]


 

 Bird flu cuts corn use 100 million bushels The Daily Journal staff report | 
Posted: Tuesday, June 16, 2015 11:17 pm

  

 
 With the U.S. on the tail end of the worst bird flu outbreak in history, 
University of Illinois economists John Newton and Todd Kuethe project a 
possible decline of 100 million bushels in corn use in this marketing year. 
 

 The U.S. Department of Agriculture has projected that the outbreak could cost 
the poultry industry 50 million birds before the outbreak is expected to 
plateau later this summer.
 

  With a conservative estimate of "one bushel per bird" and a projected slow 
rate of flock re­population, the U of I ag economists project a 
100­million­bushel decline in feed use.
 

  "Absent increased consumption in other categories, such a decline would push 
the corn carryout closer to the two­billion­bushel threshold and would continue 
to pressure old­crop corn prices," according to the UI economists report. As of 
June 10, the USDA's World Supply and Demand Estimates do not reflect the 
100­millionbushel decline in a March 30 project of feed and residual use of 
corn in the 5.25 to 5.375 billion bushels, despite the pace of bird flu 
accelerating in April and May, they noted.
 

 Om, Too much corn – who would think.  But then also, we can’t export corn as 
freely as we could if it was non-GMO. The non-GMO farmers are going to make a 
killing in the market this year.  
 

 I got some smart big-time agri-industrial farmers down the road who always 
grow some non-GMO corn and beans, just to hedge their bets.  They will do 
really fine on the 'food grade' corn and beans this year that gets used in 
chips domestically and sold to Japan and European Union markets which do not 
want our GMO crops.  China?

[FairfieldLife] Community Rights Meeting in Fairfield, Iowa

FW:
 

 Community Rights Planning/Action Meeting – Thursday, June 18, 1:15pm  -   
Utopia Park 6D

 

 Please come early enough that we can begin promptly at 1:15, to respect 
everyone’s time.
  
 Many of you may know that a Democratic candidate for US Senate, Tom Fiegen, 
spent a full day in Fairfield recently discussing issues of interest – many of 
them agricultural and related to the local economy and local rights.  The event 
was co-organized by CRN, with many groups and individuals spending time in 
discussions with Fiegen during the day.  Fiegen has a farming background, has 
been a lawyer in the agricultural arena, and has many strong ideas about how 
our systems need to be changed.  He came to Fairfield largely to listen to the 
ideas and concerns of our community.
  
 Here is a video of the segment of the day that was devoted to CRN-related 
(Community Rights Network) issues.
  
 https://www.youtube.com/watch? v=KRmGgCm3C54&feature=youtu.be 
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KRmGgCm3C54&feature=youtu.be
  
 We will devote Thursday’s meeting to a discussion about the meetings with 
Fiegen and how the work of CRN (or us as individuals) might be impacted.  You 
are strongly encouraged to review the video before the meeting.
  
 The Community Rights Network, 
 Our mission:  Assisting the residents of Jefferson County to assert and secure 
our right to protect our health, safety, environment and human rights, through 
local self government.
 
 We are pursuing the strategies developed by Thomas Linzey and the Community 
Environmental Legal Defense Fund (CELDF) to turn back the growing power of 
corporations to decide the fate of our local communities.

 "A sustainable Tom Doak designed golf course is also part of the vision."

A sustainable golf course. What a concept. While there are some that claim to 
be including here in South Carolina, they can only be held to be eco friendly 
or sustainable in comparison to regular golf courses.
Golf courses are notorious water hogs, some use hundreds of thousands of 
gallons a day for irrigation alone. How do you think the greens stay so green? 
And the levels of artificial fertilizers, pesticides and herbicides used are 
unbelievable. But they have to use them to make the greens green and keep the 
insects away from the golfers. 

So that term sustainable golf course is a relative thing.

At least he did sign his handiwork "Kindly"
That was nice.

[FairfieldLife] Re: FFL by the Numbers

2015-06-18 Thread anartax...@yahoo.com [FairfieldLife]

 Yes, the biker event was the impetus for the current spate, but in post 
#415501 the drone issue is mentioned, and has been brought up a number of times.
 

 And  'dh...' has just posted the following trying to downplay the drone 
comment in his usual opaque prose.
 

 'Dear MJ, on a fair re-reading of the evidence presented below in context 
quite evidently this is not an actionable threat as you and others seem so 
willingly to misinterpret it but a simile based on an empathy around a larger 
order. Case dismissed. No action of moderation required against Buck.'
 

 There are very few actionable threats on FFL, just empty threats and put-downs 
most of the time. Turq seems to just say what he wants and at some point stops. 
I really don't know if he ever recants anything he says. 'Buck' is to my mind 
hypocritical in maintaining a certain moral stance, while Turq is 
hypercritical, and morality is not a concern. He has not mentioned the word 
this year in relation to himself. Last year he gave this definition of morality 
in relation to religion:
 

 "'Morality' consists of doing what *we* say to do during your life so that Bad 
Things don't happen to you after your death."
 

 I myself don't think in terms of morality. The word ethics comes to mind, but 
in a world in which pure being somehow runs the show, such a concept is 
meaningless. If the laws of nature are truly laws, then everything we do is a 
function of those, and we need not be concerned about morality or ethics. Those 
concepts are for those trying to figure out why the world behaves differently 
than they would like, and those words only apply to those whose behaviour we 
find disturbing compared to the way we think of our own, even if we behave the 
same way, but pretend we are not behaving the same way. We do not think of an 
auto-mobile, a lawn mower, or a toothbrush as having a moral compass, the word 
is aimed at our own species only.
 

 So I do not think Turq is concerned with the concept of morality except in the 
case when someone else uses the word to justify their actions and statements in 
which case it becomes a lever to pry out prevarication; and note that 
prevarication can be used to bring prevarication to light. So wonderfully dark 
it sparkles!
 

 I am not interested in exonerating Turq, or Buck, or you, or myself. 
Exoneration implies a level of loftitude, incorruptibility, principle, and 
sincerity as the basis for FFL and its opposing teams of henchmen that hardly 
seems underlie the actuality here. And a faux moralist like 'Buck' does not 
undermine that contention. We are scrapping here for the hell of it, and if one 
considers this place serious business aimed at a better world, then all of that 
sentiment is for naught. Perhaps if it helps us see a bit deeper into our 
folly, it might have a bit of a positive ring to it.
 

 As the character of Captain Louis Renault in the movie Casablanca says...
 

 Renault: Everybody is to leave here immediately! This café is closed until 
further notice. Clear the room, at once!
 Rick: How can you close me up? On what grounds?
 Renault: I am shocked, shocked to find that gambling is going on in here!
 Croupier: [hands Renault money] Your winnings, sir.
 Renault (quietly): Oh, thank you very much. (louder) Everybody out at once!
 

 This is the ethics of this place.

 Charles F. Lutes was the first person to enroll into the Transcendental 
Meditation program offered by His Holiness Maharishi Mahesh Yogi in the 
Continental United States in 1959. Impressed with the meditation technique he 
had received, Mr. Lutes teamed up with Maharishi and became a founding pillar 
of the Spiritual Regeneration Movement centers which later expanded into many 
branches of the Transcendental Meditation organization. He took four world 
tours with Maharishi to open hundreds of meditation centers around the world. 
In 1969 he became a teacher of the Transcendental Meditation program. 


 Mr. Lutes had gained God Consciousness enlightenment after two years of 
practicing the Transcendental Meditation technique. He was one of the most 
advanced of Maharishi’s teachers of Transcendental Meditation. Mr. Lutes was 
clairvoyant, a healer and a lecturer. He was also accomplished in many yogic 
siddhi powers.
 

 Helen Lutes In 1967, Helen studied in India with Maharishi at which time she 
became a teacher of the Transcendental Meditation program. Maharishi appointed 
Helen as the first President of his Spiritual Regeneration Movement. Helen also 
served as the Transcendental Meditation instructor for celebrities who 
preferred to keep their meditation practice confidential. 
 

 Helen Lutes was born with a high level of spiritual development. She was a 
child prodigy with an exceptionally keen understanding of human nature. She 
began the practice of the Transcendental Meditation technique with her husband, 
Charlie, in 1959. Since then Helen volunteered her time to help Maharishi 
Mahesh Yogi with his Transcendental Meditation Movement. She was an excellent 
administrator, organizing courses and managing finances. Helen also worked on 
special projects for Maharishi. It was through her efforts, working with her 
husband, that the foundation was established for the rapid expansion of the 
Transcendental Meditation program throughout the world.

 Charlie Lutes' was a side of the TM movement I was not brought up in and I am

some lot of the movement went on to anyway in subtle practice. Certainly is the

 MJ, you bet. More experience of the transcendent as the unified field is the 
basis of spiritual progress and transformation, call that cultivation a 
transcendent meditation however you want; transcending can go by different 
names culturally but it in large nature is all the same. These people were glad 
to have run in to TM as it was taught and started something for themselves 
then. Now, otherwise it is something else to wonder that you methodically 
dissuade your friends from meditating and rejoice in that. That you actively 
work to sink transcendental meditation and consciousness-based education.  That 
is incredibly anti-science and ultimately anti-spiritual. It is shocking and 
diabolical. I can empathize with Obama now. Were I President Obama securing the

Just a reminder that I was about 20 feet away from Charlie when he told the 
audience that Christ's space ship would be found inside one of the great 
pyramidsin a few years.  After about 20 years I again saw him and asked him 
"what happened to the spaceship?"  He said, "I never said any such thing."  
This may be an indication that Transcendental Meditation, as understood and 
practiced by Charlie, did not, after what seems to have been a very dedicated 
and disciplined life of spirituality, make Charlie's integrity "better," OR, it 
may indicate that his lifestyle did not prevent a great memory loss.  Or?  I 
post this here where Charlie is being delightfully supported by Doug, and I 
wouldn't want any new visitors here at wonderful FairFieldLife to get off on 
the wrong start and not have at least a warning that Charlie's inexplicable 
actions could indicate that TM might even be injurious, and careful 
consideration of the years of discussion here at this forum clearly shows that 
the "jury is still out about TM" in many a regard -- especially when money is 
being required for one to learn what is typically given for free around the 
world.  Take care new visitors...if the science isn't hard, it's hardly science.

[FairfieldLife] Re: FFL by the Numbers. Hey Rick!

2015-06-18 Thread salyavin808

 Clearly Buck/Doug is a maniac who should NOT be allowed to go through the 
files deleting posts that HE alone considers against the guidelines.
 

 HE made the comments that started the conversations that he has removed. If he 
is embarrassed about them now that's just tough. We all have to rake 
responsibility for what we say. If Doug is going to make clear allusions to the 
use of violence then we are going to comment on it. 
 

 He can't be allowed deleting other people's posts because he's presented an 
image of himself that doesn't fit in with his professed love of peace.
 

 We saw two days ago that he is incapable of discerning whether a post is 
offensive when he demanded that Turq delete a criticism of David Lynch. Lynch 
is a public figure and a member of the TMO and as such is a fair subject for 
discussion. You can't delete a post that calls him gullible for paying a 
million bucks for a course taught by the great man himself and then criticises 
Marshy for not even showing up in person. These are fair comments whether you 
like them or not.
 

 Buck wanted them deleted because he thought that they might put of people in 
the DLF from coming here to post! I think they should come here and get a 
different perspective rather than the "we are perfect" one that the TMO likes 
to award itself but anyway that's up to them, this censorship is NOT a fair use 
of the guidelines. 
 

 Doug (and presumably you) promised that he would be fair in his dealing with 
us but he is clearly behaving in a partisan manner and using the guidelines 
disingenuously to cover himself. Perhaps he thinks he's doing the right thing 
but you have to be able to tell the difference between fair comments and abuse.
 

 I'm concerned about this because we could lose a lot of interesting and 
relevant stuff if he carries on with his jihad against us "apostates".
 

 

 (PS isn't it funny seeing Judy accuse someone of bias about Barry!)

 Yes, the biker event was the impetus for the current spate, but in post 
#415501 the drone issue is mentioned, and has been brought up a number of times.
 

 And  'dh...' has just posted the following trying to downplay the drone 
comment in his usual opaque prose.
 

 'Dear MJ, on a fair re-reading of the evidence presented below in context 
quite evidently this is not an actionable threat as you and others seem so 
willingly to misinterpret it but a simile based on an empathy around a larger 
order. Case dismissed. No action of moderation required against Buck.'
 

 There are very few actionable threats on FFL, just empty threats and put-downs 
most of the time. Turq seems to just say what he wants and at some point stops. 
I really don't know if he ever recants anything he says. 'Buck' is to my mind 
hypocritical in maintaining a certain moral stance, while Turq is 
hypercritical, and morality is not a concern. He has not mentioned the word 
this year in relation to himself. Last year he gave this definition of morality 
in relation to religion:
 

 "'Morality' consists of doing what *we* say to do during your life so that Bad 
Things don't happen to you after your death."
 

 I myself don't think in terms of morality. The word ethics comes to mind, but 
in a world in which pure being somehow runs the show, such a concept is 
meaningless. If the laws of nature are truly laws, then everything we do is a 
function of those, and we need not be concerned about morality or ethics. Those 
concepts are for those trying to figure out why the world behaves differently 
than they would like, and those words only apply to those whose behaviour we 
find disturbing compared to the way we think of our own, even if we behave the 
same way, but pretend we are not behaving the same way. We do not think of an 
auto-mobile, a lawn mower, or a toothbrush as having a moral compass, the word 
is aimed at our own species only.
 

 So I do not think Turq is concerned with the concept of morality except in the 
case when someone else uses the word to justify their actions and statements in 
which case it becomes a lever to pry out prevarication; and note that 
prevarication can be used to bring prevarication to light. So wonderfully dark 
it sparkles!
 

 I am not interested in exonerating Turq, or Buck, or you, or myself. 
Exoneration implies a level of loftitude, incorruptibility, principle, and 
sincerity as the basis for FFL and its opposing teams of henchmen that hardly 
seems underlie the actuality here. And a faux moralist like 'Buck' does not 
undermine that contention. We are scrapping here for the hell of it, and if one 
considers this place serious business aimed at a better world, then all of that 
sentiment is for naught. Perhaps if it helps us see a bit deeper into our 
folly, it might have a bit of a positive ring to it.
 

 As the character of Captain Louis Renault in the movie Casablanca says...
