Re: RE: [FairfieldLife] RE: Fairfield’s Cr isis of Meditating Numbers in the Dome

Yes, body counting. 
 Someone’s separate e-mail accounts.. 
 In the meantime, the movement haS RUN OFF 30,000 PEOPLE FROM HERE I Have seen 
with my own eyes.  Hopefully Hagelin, the best guy we’ve Had yet, will pull 
this out of the fire.  He’s trying, and is sincere.

 The critical need now is for numbers in proximity meditating.  This need in 
critical mass needs movement right now not the dead weight of rigid ideology 
standing still in the way. 

 Our status quo ‘administrative state’ of the Dome numbers evidently is not 
working for reasons unacceptable by standard of what good could come of the 
group meditating.   
In the middle of tru-believer status quo is their own moral feeling that 
anything that came from Maharishi should not be changed and also a feeling that 
some people ‘made promises’ and should be punished or coerced by holding up 
their Dome badge status over them. These are moral rationales that like the 
grant-monitoring problem are unacceptable to the accord of natural law.

 A conservative view of the numbers problem is saying: “Materialism and 
ill-discipline on the part of some people in the meditating community is a 
likely part of this problem. By all the science one could infer the buck of all 
the problems is with all those spiritual loafers down in cafes sitting around 
when they could be in the collective of the Domes meditating.”

 About the collapse of numbers in the Domes meditating, it would be extremely 
politic right now to cut through this.  Make a separate policy document for 
admission in to the Dome group program for old movement meditators and 
initiators. Not with crafting exemptions but directly cut the guidelines down 
to essential of what it takes to administer a residence course or retreat.   
See that people have learned ™ and the ™-sidhis, that they don’t ‘work against’ 
the movement or would be otherwise disruptive, and simply request that they 
only practice ™ and the ™-Sidhis in the Domes.  Done. Short. Publish them.

 It is time for the scientists to lead on this, to become leaders of movement. 
Dr. Hagelin and our other bona fide scientists with real degrees of study need 
to step up and lead on this holdup with the Dome numbers.  How it was done 
before which effectively destroyed the Dome meditation numbers was terrible and 
needs to be immediately remediated.

 It is time to cut through the Gordian knot of tru-believer conservatism. 

 Contact Dr. Hagelin right now, share your concern that he work with the other 
scientists who are of the few Trustees who ‘own’ the movement to get to work 
directly on remediating so much of the damage that was previously done to our 
communal ship of state here in the years of the Patterson-Morris 
administration.

 It is time for the tru-believer faith-based religious of TM to relent.  They 
need to stand back,  hold back and ‘recuse’ themselves from the consideration 
now. They clearly cannot judge this.

 Bound by a conservative TM faith ideology evidently our conservative 
tru-believers don’t even believe the implications of the science or else in the 
policy conversations they would get out of the way of more membership and more 
meditation in the Domes.

 It is time to start a new document guideline for membership. Keep to the 
simple and get rid of the old guidelines of what was the Patterson-Morris 
administrative state of ™.   Monitoring people’s lives the way they did it 
quite obviously was against natural law. 
 

---In FairfieldLife@yahoogroups.com,  wrote :

 In this recent crisis of Dome numbers Bevan’s early solution was to charge 
fees for the Dome meditation as a reaction.  

 How about first remediating the guidelines, re-articulating what we are about 
with the Domes and a campaign to increase numbers of people doing program in 
the Dome before you guys re-introduce fees and that having to come to get 
stickers, with all that visits to the course office entails of ‘validating’ 
badges.

 Gen-X and Millennial-Gen members of the community make it clear they are not

meditating community policy could be re-adapted and made.  
 

 Show there is access to the level of the movement community where policy 
decisions can get made. Access needs to be obvious or effective people will not 
come with it.

 Try to have Hagelin come again and also start to set up processes that can

 People can be knit together in large movement with clarity of mission and

 A most interesting moment at the Phoenix Rising meeting was to see how many in 
the audience raised their hands identified in their having been at the Amherst 
course when it was first asked that meditators move to Fairfield.  Those were 
not just pioneers heading West for land but radical Transcendentalists, coming 
forward like in the great European spiritual resettlements to America of 
transcendentalist separatists and of our American transcendentalist tradition.

Work with people here to collaborate as to how are we going to go forward as a 
community.  Not an ‘us leading’ but what do ‘we’ want this to look like in 20 
years.  Their movement had become tired, old and boring.

 In the meagre Dome meditation numbers an alarming trend is a number of retired 
people of the old Fairfield meditating community with inherited or earned 
resources who have sold their houses and moved away with their checkbooks. 
  
 And some long time movement meditators recently moving/retiring to Fairfield 
with retirement resources and then moving out and selling their Fairfield house 
because the Dome/movement community experience was so stale.

 The deal now is that no one at the top of the org can rule simply by decree. 
Bevan was de-fanged by moving him over. The ™ movement now after Maharishi is 
something of 'democratic-corporate' ruled by boards of trustees, the equivalent 
of executive VP’s (Raja?) and then a class of powerful administrative 
apparatchiks. 
 Maharishi did not leave a guru behind him.  Anyone in leadership has to bring 
people who are around them along on policy. There are people and coalitions at 
all levels with different feelings and interests in all of this. In a spectrum 
of formed values (culture) it is sort of like you have tru-believer devotee or 
faith-based types who fundamentally are not wont to change anything bound by a 
fear of losing 'the purity of the teaching' and then effective practitioners 
who hope to have things work out

Conflict resolution? US Afghan policy: now focuses on "killing terrorists"
not “nation-building”.
Alternative view: “..the more preoccupied we are with Afghanistan, the less
attention we give to far more pressing issues such as climate change and
potential instability in East Asia.” The move was a flip-flop for Trump who
had previously advocated a withdrawal of US troops from the country. The
