It's about having the freedom to have more than one partner if one is drawn that way.

The person who benefits most from the particular non- monogamous relationship I live with is 4-year-old Maya. She is fortunate enough to have two loving mothers and one loving father, not to mention a weird Uncle who is not romantically involved with any of them but approves fully of what they are doing -- all to take care of her and teach her things.

I decided on the Subject line above as a topic. Hopefully folks who pile on to it as a thread-starter will do so in the same spirit as it is intended, as an invitation to talk about something we love, rather than things we...uh...don't. Besides, I'm honestly curious as to the choice FFL denizens would make if asked to name one -- and ONLY one -- film that they consider the Most Romantic Film Ever, for them. Don't be embarrassed about 'fessing up -- few films you could name could be as revealing as my favorite romantic film of all time (reviewed below). :-) I watched it again yesterday, as is my habit on Valentine's Day, and loved it as much in probably my sixtieth viewing of it as I did in my first. I've *studied* this film, analyzed it over the years frame by frame, and consider it one of the only PERFECT films ever made. It was one of those Great Film Debuts That Weren't Followed Up By Similar Greatness, a writer-director's first film, in which he pretty much shot his wad. Many, including possibly the writer-director himself, have been disappointed that he didn't follow up his initial brilliance with more of the same. But it was still a perfect film IMO, and stands as a monument to the attempt to put everything you've got -- body and soul -- into making a serious cinematic statement. And all of this in the trappings of a fable, an artform that many people consider incapable of saying anything serious. I'd review it in depth for you, but I already did, a few years ago, so I'll recycle that one (which is more about the film as spiritual fable than romantic fable, but take my word for it, the two aren't that far apart) rather than attempting a Do-Over. But I really am curious as to which film the folks on Fairfield Life would name if asked -- as they just were -- to name their single favorite romantic film of all time, and why they feel that way. I think such a thread would be fun. The Teachings of Don Juan When you live in a small French village half an hour from the nearest movie theater, and you have a large collection of DVDs, you kinda become the de facto lending library. People drop by often to borrow the ones they want to see. And one of the questions they always ask when confronted with the shelves and shelves of movies is, What's your favorite film? For any film lover this can be a daunting question. Unless you actually know, that is. I know. I'm somewhat ashamed to admit it, given the way the world reacts to hopeless romantics, but I know. My favorite film (watching it again as I write this) is Jeremy Leven's Don Juan de Marco. Yeah, yeah...I know. Ick...Uncle Tantra's favorite movie is a chick flick. I get that a lot. Personally, I think the film is much more a guy flick than a chick flick, but I would love it even if it had received a five-star review from Cosmo. As a film fan I would love it because it's impeccable. I have seen the film literally dozens of times, and cannot detect a flaw in either the script or the execution of that script. I would also love it for its acting. Johnny Depp, who always seems to give his best, does so again. Faye Dunaway just eats the camera in the few scenes she is in, and steals the whole movie with one line. And Marlon Brando comes out of a long somnambulism to deliver a surprisingly touching and vibrant performance. As an artist, I would love the film because it is one of those devote-your-life-to-creating-one-memorable-work-of-art kinda movies. Jeremy Leven wrote and directed, and supposedly struggled for years to get the film made. It shows. As a hopeless romantic, I would love it because it is arguably the most romantic film ever made. If you are hopelessly burdened with being a hopeless romantic, how could you not love lines like: There are only four questions of value in life, Don Octavio: What is sacred? Of what is the spirit made? What is worth living for? And what is worth dying for? The answer to each is the same only love. But as a spiritual seeker, I love it even more because I see things in the film that many do not. I see it as a homage to the notion of Castaneda's separate realities, and to the enduring charm of a better dream. When people who have not seen the movie ask me about it, I usually describe it as a film about a crazy man and the person who cures him. Given the two main characters a young guy who believes that he is the legendary lover Don

In retrospect my made-up word monogamaphobes was ill-considered, and probably should have been something like polyamoraphobes. I *have* met a few monogamaphobes among my extended family's polyamorous friends -- those who look down on monogamy as much as monogamists look down on polyamory -- but I have very little tolerance for them, as do my housemates. We're more of the different strokes for different folks and live and let live persuasion. Why this whole polyamory thing appeals to me is the some- what remarkable degrees of *honesty* I've found in some people who practice it. That and the lack of one of the afflictive emotions, jealousy. They tend to believe that requiring a romantic partner to love only them makes as little sense as feeling that one cannot love one's parents or friends if one has a wife or husband. (Or, obviously, that one cannot love one's primary spiritual teacher if one visits others.) That's just love as property thinking. Icky. Low vibe. Most of the sad history of planet Earth has been the result of people raised by nuclear monogamous families. That doesn't seem to me to be a great commercial for the concept. :-)

But two-by-two isn't the only way to go through life. In fact, an estimated 4 to 5 percent of Americans are looking outside their relationship for love and sex with their partner's full permission. These consensually nonmonogamous relationships, as they're called, don't conform to the cultural norm of a handholding couple in love for life. They come in a dizzying array of forms, from occasional swinging and open relationships to long-term commitments among multiple people. Now, social scientists embarking on brand-new research into these types of relationships are finding that they may challenge the ways we think of jealousy, commitment and love. They may even change monogamy for the better. People in these relationships really communicate. They communicate to death, said Bjarne Holmes, a psychologist at Champlain College in Vermont. All of that negotiation may hold a lesson for the monogamously inclined, Holmes told LiveScience. They are potentially doing quite a lot of things that could turn out to be things that if people who are practicing monogamy did more of, their relationships would actually be better off, Holmes said.

What does Rumi know? Wait makes an eternalness? How bitter could one be in agony? Addressing a present mistake, could the lasting hindrance make the comfort of love? So what a Valentine's hate? Does the 20 plus years make a good mate? How about 1 year? When does time let the heart become content, O' Krishna? When does Chandra exalt her wishes of love? Shukra makes it hard to ignore, the desire. How red in the face must one be, before the red in the heart glows endlessly? Love grand. Love embrace. Moments in time we all chase. What petal does pick its way, She loves me, she loves me not? Where does that nectar seat? The bumble moves about, adheres to the rear the pollen to be shared to the next flower, but the fruit does not bear sweet until the larva are set with honey? The new growth are the sacrifice to this one we call, love. The chance of multiply makes no dismissal to the hard work for the heart to find a place to call home to call mine? The calm waiting makes better pleasure, then a hasty mistake? --- In FairfieldLife@yahoogroups.com, Ravi Chivukula wrote: Yep - you got it - sharing the love, celebrating Valentine's Kali Pimp style !!!

Anyway, these are extraordinary times, initiated by an extraordinary Yogi and Master who blessed humanity with a Golden Era to be enjoyed for the next 10,000 years, counting from July 1975. What we are witnessing is a revolution on this planet on all levels political, enviornmental, social, mental and religious. With the dramatic changes we are witnessing there is no guarantee the there will be another Pope. I have not spoken with Him personally but it is said that Jesus from Palestine, who now lives in Italy after an incarnation in Syria, is not happy with the state of affairs in His church. This has to do with more fundamental affairs in the Church than the sexual wrong-doings that has surfaced during the last few years. Just speculating ofcourse, but perhaps the last Pope of all times will be remembered as a monk enjoying his elderly days in a monestary at the Vatican.

I agree, Michael. The truth might very well have tapered the donation jar rattlings to a lessor amount, giving less to any powerful and greedy use objectives, if they existed. Could be why big plans always ended before the plan materialized as something tangible, something complete. Then when things did not materialize, it was always said, Maharishi changed his mind. Or words like that. I still stand by the statement, the Maharishi put dunce hats on the Rajas (burger king crowns) to shine the light of the cosmic joke, once he was gone. :) --- In FairfieldLife@yahoogroups.com, Michael Jackson wrote: that's your opinion and you are welcome to it - others want something else - others want to know the enrgy with which something was created - if the creator was not walking his talk which Marshy didn't, then it makes a difference. I don't mind if you don't want to know the truth, and if something is true it isn't gossip. But there is no need for you to think that everyone else should get in lockstep with you. I have seen and heard enough evidence to convince me that Marshy was a con man, a powerful and able con man but a con man nonetheless, and the energy with which ANY creation is created will find its way into the furthest reaches of that creation, which is why the Movement and it leaders have always had that deceitful, arrogant, uncaring, manipulative attitude because that is the energy that Marshy brought to bear upon it, and within his personal life. And if a person seeks to influence millions of people, his personal life has great bearing upon his words and actions, particularly when he is lying as to what and who he is, for example, giving instructions to single and married people to be celibate and screwing as much as he could while lying and claiming to be bramacharya.

The neo-advaitins are the most horrible ones. What I need is some example like Amma who went through actual, demonstrable mystical experiences though she ultimately deceived herself by trying to frame it in a medieval goddess possession context of her village and posing as an infallible divine mother, avatar type figure and creating a destructive cult. Even based upon what you - Barry - have commented on Rama/Lenz - he may have had mystical experiences yet deceived again. I have seen nothing on Maharishi. Osho seems to have had mystical experiences though once again creating a destructive cult. Anyway - this is what I look for - an actual altered state of consciousness because of a mystical experience and then followed by an intellectual discovery, reconciliation. Not these projected states of mind, calmness because of life-numbing practices, repression and/or perversion like Gandhi, Teresa types, the myriad Hindu, Zen Gurus, teachers, avatars - all kinds of frauds and consters. The only authentic ones I have found so far are Ramana Maharishi, Krishnamurti - they seem to have been devoid of all medieval mumbo-jumbo, an actual intellectual reconciliation of mystical

If such a spectacle as the Kumbh Mela were taking place in Africa, worshiping tribal river gods who were portrayed in *their* scriptures as engaged in non- stop war and the stealing of each others' wives (as are the Hindu/Vedic gods), people here on FFL would consider it rank superstition, interesting only for the great number of people who could possibly be *that* superstitious. You're sure of this, are you? But because the Kumbh Mela is in India, which has been glorified beyond reason to them by Maharishi for decades, they don't think bathing in sewage during an auspicious alignment of stars and planets is at *all* superstitious. It's SCIENCE, doncha know. How about this? Sure of this too? Maybe you should consider the possibility that folks here just aren't as bigoted as you are and find your putdowns of other cultures' religious beliefs and practices-- especially those of the cultures of dark-skinned people-- stupid and offensive. It's interesting how everyone has value judgments, myself included. I have to admit that I look down my nose at Walmart stampedes on Black Friday the way Barry looks down his nose at the India stampede. But, the simple reality is that infrastructure can fail and crowds can stampede *anywhere*. Suppose there were a festival seating stadium stampede because a hypothetical Bruce Cockburn actually had the talent and popularity to fill such a large venue; I can't imagine Barry having the same attitude about the concertgoers as he does about Indians at the Kumbh Mela. authfriend: Barry has an agenda, to discredit TM and TMers; his attacks on India and Hinduism and Hindus are a function of that agenda. Would he express the same attitude if he didn't have the agenda? Barry's agenda is to discredit Judy, and anything she supports. If that means putting down the TM practice, all is fair game to Barry. In a nut shell, if Judy is for it, Barry is against it. It's that simple. Who knows? But, what is not so simple is the effect Judy has had on Barry over the years. Now it's no longer enough to idolize MMY and the Rama guy's cult - Barry is intent on being the anti-Judy cult leader. Go figure. You mean Barry is intent on being the anti-Judy cunt leader?

The running of the Inquisition was turned over to the Dominicans in 1232. Not the Inquisition that Ratzinger headed. There have been four major Inquisitions: the Medieval Inquisition (actually a series of them that began around 1188), the Spanish Inquisition, the Portuguese Inquisition, and the Roman Inquisition. There has never been anything *other* than The Inquisition. Its basic nature and charter has never changed since 1188, and the people running it have never changed since 1232. All they did was change the name periodically. Au contraire, Pierre. The Spanish Inquisition was established by Ferdinand and Isabella and was run independently of the Holy See. The Grand Inquisitors of the Portuguese Inquisition were members of the royal family. The Medieval Inquisition, as noted, was a series of local inquisitions that were run by local Catholic authorities until the Dominicans took them over. But these operations were phased out once the heretical movements against which they were directed were eliminated (Cathars, etc.). The first Inquisition run from the top down was the Roman Inquisition, the one Ratzinger eventually became the head of. It's said to have been the most benign of all of them. Of course one can refer to The Inquisition for the sake of convenience, as if it were one continuous monolithic operation, when one is speaking in the most general terms; but that ignores the real (not artificial) historical distinctions chronologically, regionally, and in terms of control. When one is referring to a single individual in modern times as having led The Inquisition, it behooves one to be more specific. It would be correct to say that, as head of the Roman Inquisition, Ratzinger brought back some of its investigatory and disciplinary practices that had been abandoned in the middle of the 20th century. (Of course it's been awhile since the Inquisition went after anything but heresy *within* the Church.) It is *not* correct to say Ratzinger brought back The Inquisition! as if all inquisitorial activity had ceased and Ratzinger revived it single-handedly (and as if, indeed, that activity included the torture and executions that took place in earlier inquisitional phases). The supposed different Inquisitions Judy gloms onto above are artificial distinctions dreamed up by scholars to classify an ongoing organization into parts they could focus on in their dry historical papers. Only a person who believes that they can learn about the world by Googling would ever have thought otherwise. Nighty-night, Jude. :-)

I think if my number was called tomorrow I would regret not travelling more. Which gives me an incentive to get off my arse! Top five regrets of the dying A nurse has recorded the most common regrets of the dying, and among the top ones is 'I wish I hadn't worked so hard'. What would your biggest regret be if this was your last day of life? There was no mention of more sex or bungee jumps. A palliative nurse who has counselled the dying in their last days has revealed the most common regrets we have at the end of our lives. And among the top, from men in particular, is 'I wish I hadn't worked so hard'. Bronnie Ware is an Australian nurse who spent several years working in palliative care, caring for patients in the last 12 weeks of their lives. She recorded their dying epiphanies in a blog called Inspiration and Chai, which gathered so much attention that she put her observations into a book called The Top Five Regrets of the Dying. Ware writes of the phenomenal clarity of vision that people gain at the end of their lives, and how we might learn from their wisdom. When questioned about any regrets they had or anything they would do differently, she says, common themes surfaced again and again. Here are the top five regrets of the dying, as witnessed by Ware: 1. I wish I'd had the courage to live a life true to myself, not the life others expected of me. This was the most common regret of all. When people realise that their life is almost over and look back clearly on it, it is easy to see how many dreams have gone unfulfilled. Most people had not honoured even a half of their dreams and had to die knowing that it was due to choices they had made, or not made. Health brings a freedom very few realise, until they no longer have it. 2. I wish I hadn't worked so hard. This came from every male patient that I nursed. They missed their children's youth and their partner's companionship. Women also spoke of this regret, but as most were from an older generation, many of the female patients had not been breadwinners. All of the men I nursed deeply regretted spending so much of their lives on the treadmill of a work existence. 3. I wish I'd had the courage to express my feelings. Many people suppressed their feelings in order to keep peace with others. As a result, they settled for a mediocre existence and never became who they were truly capable of becoming. Many developed illnesses relating to the bitterness and resentment they carried as a result. 4. I wish I had stayed in touch with my friends. Often they would not truly realise the full benefits of old friends until their dying weeks and it was not always possible to track them down. Many had become so caught up in their own lives that they had let golden friendships slip by over the years. There were many deep regrets about not giving friendships the time and effort that they deserved. Everyone misses their friends when they are dying. 5. I wish that I had let myself be happier. This is a surprisingly common one. Many did not realise until the end that happiness is a choice. They had stayed stuck in old patterns and habits. The so-called 'comfort' of familiarity overflowed into their emotions, as well as their physical lives. Fear of change had them pretending to others, and to their selves, that they were content, when deep within, they longed to laugh properly and have silliness in their life again. What's your greatest regret so far, and what will you set out to achieve or change before you die?

Accountant Number 8 in the first list is interesting, while it uses the terminology associated with Christian metaphysics, it could just as easily be applied to Rabbi, Ayatollah, and Guru, though there might be cultural differences that would alter the position on the list. We do see a lot of strange and abusive Gurus, of which many here feel MMY was one. What I find interesting are numbers 4 and 8 on the second list. Many on the non-psychopathic list are care-givers or those who have chosen a profession based on service to others, something I would expect to help keep psychopathy at bay. But craftspersons (a term I assume refers to someone good enough at a craft as to be considered somewhat of an artist at it) and creative artists? The connection this provokes in me is that most of the gurus/teachers/spiritual leaders I've run into or studied over the years whom I would assess as suffering from Narcissistic Personality Disorder and possibly psychopathy were *not* creative personally. But they longed to be *perceived* by others as creative. Fred Lenz - Rama, for example, couldn't play an instrument or read music, but he claimed to have composed all of the music that Zazen (a band he formed composed of real, profes- sional musicians, who I knew well, and well enough to know that they wrote every note) recorded. He didn't...he just claimed that. Similarly, there are strong rumors that he didn't write the Snow- boarding To Nirvana book that he published under his name, but instead farmed it out to students of his to write, and then signed his name to it. I've heard similar stories of abusive or contro- versial gurus/teachers doing exactly the same thing, and ripping off creative works done by other people so that they could sign their name to them. We've all heard stories of Maharishi doing exactly the same thing, starting with commentaries on the Gita that almost certainly weren't actually written by him, and continuing through his presentation of stuff about A-V, S-V, and other subjects that he borrowed from other people. I wonder what it is about actually *being* creative that helps those who are to avoid psychopathic tendencies, and what it is about psychopaths that makes them envy real creative people enough to fake it, so as to be thought of as one of them.

There's no life without sex and the combination of male and female is the path to the non-dual experience. The rites of Tantric cults, while often steeped in symbolism, could also include group and individual sex. One text advised devotees to revere the female sex organ and enjoy vigorous intercourse.

There's no life without sex and the combination of male and female is the path to the non-dual experience. The rites of Tantric cults, while often steeped in symbolism, could also include group and individual sex. One text advised devotees to revere the female sex organ and enjoy vigorous intercourse.

I agree. If it were none of anyone's business, why was it said, the celibacy thing all the time, that supposedly does not matter, but when people put people on a higher status because someone is celibate, would there be lying involved if it was not true a person was known as a celibate, but actually was not? None of our business, I like that motto. It only works when we say one thing, then do the opposite of what we say we do not do? People have been taught to think a celibate is on a higher spiritual plane. Why is that used all the time as being greater than other's? Sexual energy is said to drain energy, but who says that?

I agree, there is no reason to make up anything. It takes time to come to decipher what happened and what really happened. Where is one today as well as where were they yesterday. Keeping the positive attitude or positive feelings cannot deduct the truth. It is easy to sit in the cushy cotton jar, and not know you are in there. Un stressing occurs on the program and off the program, that in itself gives question to what is happening as someone ways the magic wand. I like my meditation. It is the organization that needs an overhaul and abolishing the bells and whistle sales techniques, because that only attracts people who could not make it anywhere else and get an upper hand at being something, in the organization, thereby securing the abuses of competitive, better than thou imperfections as the negativity is ignored awhile the admiration of kalashes on corner posts of homes and vastu, the golden cow is worshiped?

[FairfieldLife] Re: Co$ in the news again.....
Nabby, Even with a beautiful program as TM is, there are many flaws with administration, or have been. All organizations are not perfect, even with perfect knowledge being taught, because humans have things to work out in this life. The money thing has made TM well known, at the same time the money thing has brought the ego money grabbers out of the wood work. What the Maharishi said in front of the masses, is, was exceptional to most information shared with others in the spiritual content topic. What happened behind closed doors, well that is up to those who wish to share that with us, here, or elsewhere. I do not mind even the Turq ranting about the subject. I think, even he has some truth to his, uh, well, display of accusations and lies. lol Shining light on darkness is the only way to absolute knowledge as they say in visual science. :) --- In FairfieldLife@yahoogroups.com, nablusoss1008 wrote: --- In FairfieldLife@yahoogroups.com, salyavin808 wrote: This was also when Marshy tripled the price after telling teachers we need to teach as many as we can to change the world.

I am not so sure about that. I searched for the word victim and victimized in Barry's posts to see how he applied the word to himself, and he does not seem to have used the word in reference to himself. There were some 400+ references to the word 'victim' and some 41 for the word 'victimize'. As I have a limited time, I chose the word 'victimized' and read every paragraph where he used the word in an original post. This provides a reasonable sample. In not one case does he refer to himself as having been victimized. I really do not think he thinks of himself that way. He does not. Thinking of the people one stalks AS victims is something that stalkers do. Their fantasies revolve around how strongly they are affecting the people they hate. In my considered opinion, the best thing one can do when faced with an Internet stalker is to allow them to fantasize about how strongly they are affecting

See you all later. oxo -Obba --- In FairfieldLife@yahoogroups.com, Ravi Chivukula wrote: Ditto this - dear Share, a really clueless, crazy post and..You and I never began anew, and even if we had, this post of yours would have put us right back where we were
[FairfieldLife] Re: Post Count issues
Ditto. Here. Spoken like a true enlightened. :) The self is the self and speeding that along got lost in the Hollywood, celebrity ideal of thinking. The amount of money one has, has become the focus of who is enlightened, just like the Christianity and the bling bling churches, hair and nails and shoes. Good thing post counts are not dressed in drag. Geez.

Hell, a lot of brilliant math people can't do simple accounting. Too machine like. Computers are better at counting. It's that people on the path to enlightenment shouldn't be worried too much about people over posting. They should have just ignored those people. It was as if some post was going to contain that little morsel of knowledge that might suddenly pop them into enlightenment and they didn't want to miss it. Crazy.

Yahoo has been messing up for awhile now, more so since they revamped their look, or whatever. --- In FairfieldLife@yahoogroups.com, Bhairitu wrote: On 01/22/2013 05:35 AM, Alex Stanley wrote: The post count that showed up last night was from the 19th.

There is no way in hell that I'm going to manually count people's posts and keep track of the post count myself, so as far as I'm concerned, if the post counts don't start showing up in a timely manner, the post count rule is toast. Well there is the Python script I posted to the files section under Tools. If you are getting FFL via email and via a client that uses MBox files to store the messages it works pretty slick and easy to set up (instructions are in the file). The only differences will be if an email to your account gets delayed. Of course I find it amusing that a group of supposedly enlightened people requires having a post count. :-D Here's the output as of a few minutes ago from the Python script.
