By critical contrast: How capitalism captured the mindfulness industry.. The secular technique and its relativist lack of a moral foundation has opened itself up to a host of dubious uses, called out by its critics as McMindfulness. Without a critical account of the social context of neoliberal individualism, mindfulness as a practice and discourse focused on the self minimizes social critique and change and contributes to keeping existing social injustices and inequitable power structures intact. There is nothing revolutionary about the so-called Mindful Revolution. Chris Goto-Jones says: “The revolution doesn’t require any particular change in values or economic systems … For a revolution this movement shows remarkable conservatism. The leading voices make no demands on followers. They need not become activists or participate in political struggle.” https://www.theguardian.com/lifeandstyle/2019/apr/16/how-capitalism-captured-the-mindfulness-industry https://www.theguardian.com/lifeandstyle/2019/apr/16/how-capitalism-captured-the-mindfulness-industry ---In FairfieldLife@yahoogroups.com, wrote : The 40th Anniversary, of the 1979 Amherst course.

The theoretical basis guiding our spiritual experience and thinking is the Meissner Effect, the ME, found in Natural Law and our manifestly Self-evident experience meditating. If there is to be revolution, there must be a revolutionary meditating movement. Without a revolutionary meditating movement, without a movement built on the scientific and revolutionary theory of the ME and group meditation and in the style of science and spiritual experience of the Unified Field, it is impossible to lead the practicing meditator and the broad groupings of the meditators everywhere against the entrenched forces of reductionist materialism, of deconstructionism and their running-dogs.: Revolutionaries, where it has happened and where revolution has brought change in broader status quo for humanity it is interesting in study to look at and hear how they said it, how they said it, led it, and acted it out such that they compelled and led broader societal change.

[FairfieldLife] Re: How capitalism captured the mindfulness industry
The spiritual moral bypass.. "By negating and downplaying actual social and political contexts and focusing on the individual, or more so, the individual’s brain, McMindfulness interventions ignore seeing our inseparability from all others. They ignore seeing our inseparability from inequitable cultural patterns and social structures that affect and constitute our relations, and thereby ourselves. McMindfulness thus forfeits the moral demand that follows this insight: to challenge social inequities and enact universal compassion, service and social justice in all forms of human endeavor." ---In FairfieldLife@yahoogroups.com, wrote : How capitalism captured the mindfulness industry https://www.theguardian.com/lifeandstyle/2019/apr/16/how-capitalism-captured-the-mindfulness-industry https://www.theguardian.com/lifeandstyle/2019/apr/16/how-capitalism-captured-the-mindfulness-industry
[FairfieldLife] Flying together (sampat) and perfection (sampad)
http://yogasutrastudy.info/yoga-sutra-translations/ysp-sutras3-41-3-55/
http://yogasutrastudy.info/yoga-sutra-translations/ysp-sutras3-41-3-55/
ampat P. %{-patati} , to fly or rush together (in a friendly or hostile
manner) , encounter , meet any one (acc.) ,
meet with (instr.) RV. &c. &c. ; to fly along , fly to , hasten towards
saMpad f. falling together, coinciding, agreeing; success, gain, acquisition;
increase, growth; existence,
abundance, high degree (adj. --- furnished with); right proportion, state, or
condition; prosperity, happiness; wealth, beauty.
Now, Patañjali defines his use of the word sampad in suutra III 45
Sutra III.46
रूपलावण्यबलवज्रसंहननत्वानि कायसंपत्॥४६॥
rūpa-lāvaṇya-bala-vajra-saṁhananatvāni kāyasaṁpat ॥46॥
[HA]: Perfection Of Body Consists In Beauty, Grace, Strength And Adamantine
Hardness.
This is extremely confusing: at the end, without any sandhi, the word "should"
be sampad, with d in the end. This is probably a rule I can't remember, but
even without sandhi the word whose dictionary form ends in d, here ends in t,
making it homonymous with the word meaning, amongst other things, to fly
together!
So, does P-jali hint that even flying together makes the body perfect!
Food for thought! This seems to be a bit more complicated than I first
thought...
