[FairfieldLife] The Earth Is Under Threat, Humans Need to Leave Soon

2017-06-20 Thread jr_...@yahoo.com [FairfieldLife]
Hawking may be getting paranoid.  He needs to meditate to get in touch with the 
absolute.  But it is possible for humans to colonize Mars.  But it's not likely 
we can visit the nearest exoplanets.  We don't have the technology to get there 
within a human lifetime.
 

 But robots with AI can get there as a possible representative of humanity.  
Perhaps they can grow humans there by in vitro fertilization when they arrive 
at the nearest exoplanet.

[FairfieldLife] An Earth-like Exoplanet with an Atmosphere

2017-04-06 Thread jr_...@yahoo.com [FairfieldLife]
It's nice to know that it exists.  But it is not likely humans can ever visit 
the place since it's too far away for our present technology to reach.  And we 
have not heard of any radio signals that any ETs live there.  So, we keep on 
searching...with billlions and billions of stars to go..

The moons gravity stretched the earth crust some 3 to just  under 4 ft at the," 
Terra's" equator daily. Erosion has mostly erased our cracks from our view. We 
can view the daily tides. At some time in the distant past when the Luna was 
much closer to Terra the tides were a mile plus in height & vastly slowed our 
daily spin & far more. These effect are lessened as the moon moves away from is 
but it  may well in our distant future come in to crash with us.
 there is on the east cost of the states a full eclipse of the moon this Sunday 
evening 8 PM to 11:30 PM or so see local times 4 such.

[FairfieldLife] No earth??

2014-05-13 Thread cardemais...@yahoo.com [FairfieldLife]
Moving through space: By Samyama on the relationship between the body and space 
(akasha) and by concentrating on the lightness of cotton, passage through space 
can be attained. While sutra 3.40 described levitation, this sutra describes 
moving through space. 
 Note the quality of opposites: A universal principle is relatively easy to see 
in this sutra. The samyama is on the relationship between the body and space. 
This results in the body having a lightness that is likened to cotton. The 
samyama allows a releasing or a cessation of the process of heaviness or earth 
element. Then, the natural lightness is experienced. It is not that a new 
quality of lightness is being attained or added on. Rather, it is a ceasing to 
be connected with the quality of earth or heaviness of body. Over and over, 
this process or practice (1.2 http://www.swamij.com/yoga-sutras-10104.htm#1.2) 
of cessation of identity (1.4 http://www.swamij.com/yoga-sutras-10104.htm#1.4) 
is repeated until the Self comes shining through (1.3 
http://www.swamij.com/yoga-sutras-10104.htm#1.3). 
 Attainments and obstacles: As with the other subtle experiences this is seen 
to be both an attainment and an obstacle, and is set aside (Yoga Sutras of 
Patanjali 3.38: What to do with subtle experiences

If there are any advanced civilizations out there, maybe they're using another 
method of communication other than by using radio waves, which are limited by 
the speed of light.  They could be using the principle of quantum entanglement 
to communicate which would be instantaneous.  I'm not sure if SETI or NASA is 
capable of detecting any transmissions from this mode of communications.

transmission, it would take 490 years to get there.  So, we won't hear any 
reply from them until 980 years from now, assuming they're capable of hearing 
us and sending a message back.
 

 It's amazing how optimistic we humans are, what are the chances of another 
civilisation having the same sort of technology as us at the time our message 
arrives? Unbelievably small. But that's no reason not to try, and here's the 
funny thing: we don't try! Not much anyway, we just listen, we hardly ever send 
a messages to the stars. Partly because of the cost but also I suspect because 
the people that send them won't be around to hear the reply - if we even still 
have the tech to pick them up.
 

 What if everyone else is just listening instead of sending? Oops. But then we 
did receive a message once.
 

 It came in on the day Elvis died (no connection probably) and was identified 
as being unusual a few days later. The technician that collated the night's 
readings noticed the strength of the signal and wrote Wow! in the margin.
 

 What was interesting is that a few years earlier a group of scientists decided 
what the most likely methods intelligent aliens would use to communicate across 
space. They decided the hydrogen wavelength was the most likely as it's the 
most common element and they aliens would have to know that. The decided a 
modulated signal would indicate a complex message being conveyed.
 

 A few years later there it was! Exactly what was predicted. Trouble is, when 
they triangulated where the signal had came from there wasn't any star there. 
And it was never repeated despite much searching.
 

 So that was that. Our potential first contact was left as an unrepeated 
anomaly and forgotten. Or so I thought
 

 http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wow!_signal 
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wow!_signal

 

 There's a good bit at the bottom:
 

 In 2012, on the 35th anniversary of the Wow! signal, Arecibo Observatory 
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Arecibo_Observatory beamed a response from 
humanity, containing 10,000 Twitter http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Twitter 
messages, in the direction from which the signal originated. In the response, 
Arecibo scientists have attempted to increase the chances of intelligent life 
receiving and decoding the celebrity videos and crowd-sourced tweets by 
attaching a repeating sequence header to each message that will let the 
recipient know that the messages are intentional and from another intelligent 
life form.

 

 Cool. That's what being human is all about.

I will check on the iridium flares - looks amazing.   I have seen the space 
station pass overhead many times, but only because I had the schedule for my 
area and was looking for it.  Go to: www.heavens-above.com/PassSummary.  You 
need to enter your location and time zone.  It will give you  dates and times 
and locations (which area of the sky it will appear in and what direction it 
will be traveling).  It is very accurate.

Thanks for the info on the flares.  I am passing it around...

Thanks, the camera is a Canon ELPH 310 HS which is a inexpensive 
point-and-shoot.  But it far better than the Aiptek 1080p camera I was 
using.  The Canon does have optical telephoto and also shoots at 24 
fps.  It also has far less shutter roll than the Aiptek.  The Canon also 
does far better in low light which was useful at last night's birthday 
bash.  The Vixia is a good choice however you'd need to put that camera 
on a tripod to film a bug's butt at 50 feet. ;-)

A lot of the shots I took yesterday were zoomed in a bit and so any 
shake was more noticeable.   This is just an interim casual camera.  My 
last expensive camera was a Sony HD1 when it was released in 2005.  It 
has a very nice Zeiss lens on it but it uses tape and way behind 
compared to today's technology.  My choice for a more expensive camera 
would be a DSLR probably a Canon T3i since it has a reticulating 
viewfinder and you can change lenses for it.  And there is the Magic 
Lantern hack that adds all kinds of pro filmmaker features to Canon DSLRs.

Thanks for that, some of my favourite pics there.

The pale blue dot pic was Carl Sagan's idea, the voyager
probe was on it's way out of the solar system when he 
suggested turning it round to get a view of earth. The
other guys at NASA objected to it as unscientific and a 
waste of resources. Luckily Sagan's sense of wonder won
out as it never fails to send a shiver down my spine.

Nah, there will never be a drought in Vermont. There are 4 -5,000 foot
mountains either side of a valley with a humongous fresh water lake that
is placed at just over sea level. That is one reason I chose to live
here. Climate change in North America (wether it is warmer, drier,
wetter, windier, or colder) won't affect Vermont much (we were the least
affected by the recession too.)

There is a great Goddess that lives in Lake Champlain, and she protects

Neat animation of what earth would look like if it

The first part shows what it would look like from

including at night.

One thing the animation doesn't show that I'd love
to see is what it would look like with the rings
directly in front of the sun.

Would make a great science fiction story: how would
the earth's mythology and even history have been

 One of the things I am most thankful to the Rama guy
 I studied with for is introducing me to the practice 
 of surfing Places Of Power.
 
 I don't remember hearing much about Places Of Power
 in my time in the TM movement. If we went on pilgrimage,
 it was to a place we were journeying to for a course.
 In other words, for the people or events offered in the
 place, not for the place itself. If we felt anything
 different in a spiritual sense while on the course,
 we tended to attribute it to the people or the events,
 not to the place itself.
 
 Me, I enjoy just surfing the Places Of Power themselves,
 feeling their unique energies, and allowing them to flow
 through me. Journeying to such places is like getting a 
 hit of Earth Shakti, and can be (IMO) far more trans-
 formative spiritually than a hit of human shakti.
 
 Places Of Power are concentrated nexuses (nexi?) of 
 energy. When you meditate or hike there, you immerse
 yourself in that energy nexus as profoundly as you might 
 by sitting at the feet of some living spiritual teacher.
 
 The best such places -- like the best spiritual teachers
 -- have an energy that isn't static. It flows, constantly
 changing, keeping you on your toes to follow it *as*
 it changes. For example, the crater of Haleakala is 
 primarily about the energy of Silence. But -- as I tried
 to write about recently in the context of meditation -- 
 Silence isn't static. It flows, and grows into deeper 
 and deeper levels of Silence. On a hike through Haleakala, 
 if you are practicing mindfulness and watching the different 
 states of attention as they play across your mind, you will 
 notice not One but *hundreds* of levels of Silence. And by 
 noticing them and paying attention to them, that Silence 
 becomes more a part of your Silence.
 
 Other Places Of Power are more raucous or lively, charged
 with energies that one could describe as more occult. My
 favorite Place Of Power of that type is Canyon de Chelly. 
 Walking through that canyon in a receptive state of mind 
 can allow you to try on and wear dozens of occult states 
 of attention far more powerful than the sorcerers you read 
 about in fantasy novels or tales of Siddhas.
 
 Once you've grokked the energy of a particular Place Of 
 Power, and the effect that being there has on you, you
 can add that place to your arsenal of spiritual weapons.
 Feeling lethargic and low on energy? Just take a day trip
 to a Place Of Power that consistently leaves you feeling
 charged up and more energetic every time you go there.
 Feeling a little low on creativity? Go to a place that
 leaves your mind filled with creative thoughts every time
 you go there. 
 
 Could this be a placebo effect, and have nothing to do 
 with the energy of the place? Sure. But if it works,
 who gives a shit? The homeopathic sugar pill that cured
 my tinitis might have been only a sugar pill, with no
 traceable residue of the remedy it was based on. But 
 it worked. If the tinitis ever returns, I will slip
 another sugar pill under my tongue.
 
 Places Of Power *work*. And fortunately or unfortunately,
 no one can tell you where they are. A geographical loca-
 tion that gets you higher than a kite and brings on bouts
 of heavy witnessing or whatever you call a spiritual 
 experience may do diddleysquat for someone else. 
 
 You find your own Places Of Power by going to different
 places and practicing mindfulness, watching what you think
 about and what you feel when you are there. If you find a
 place in which you find yourself thinking cool things and
 feeling really good...duh...go back. If it happens again,
 and seems to happen consistently, you have found a Place 
 Of Power. For you. 
 
 You can take advantage of such places. Places Of Power
 are your friends along the spiritual path.

 When I was 15 we spotted one of the HUGE UFO's floating at 
 the end of the lake. It looked like a star at first. It was 
 only years after the encounter that I realized, it had drawn 
 a pattern in the sky. So I used that pattern as part of my 
 nightly dream-yoga practice. It awoke me immediately into 
 contact. One of the things they first showed me was the 
 dakini net. This web of intelligence that was spread across  
 the globe. Wherever the nexuses were in the web was a power spot.

Cool, I guess. I have never seen a UFO or wanted 
to, but thought I had one night while in a Place
Of Power, Joshua Tree. My girlfriend and I had just
finished escaping from a tarantula the size of 
Cleveland when we looked up and saw a bright light 
in the night sky. And the thing was that it wasn't 
just hanging there in mid-air the way that a brick 
doesn't, it was growing larger and larger, and 
seemingly coming right at us. This went on for
some seconds, during which I will admit to wonder-
ing whether the aliens who were coming to abduct
to us would be offended that I was still wearing
yesterday's underwear when they went to probe me.

Finally the bright light swerved, and instead of
coming directly at us, turned to the right. At that
point we could see that it had been the landing 
headlights of a plane circling before landing at 
the Palm Springs airport. We laughed until we cried.

In a way I carried that experience into my spirit-
ual practice, too, because every time I remember
it I laugh again. And what's not spiritual about
that?

As for the rest of your rap, while I appreciate 
that it might be fun for you to speculate as to
what these Places Of Power are and what they mean,
that just doesn't float my boat. It is enough for
me to know that such outer places exist and that I

shinier inner places. Why or how that happens 
has no interest to me.

It's not petroglyphs in general, but the specific ones Bruce was  
referring to, which seem to show some sort of happening and people  
interacting with them. This is actually not that unusual. If there's  
an area where sightings presently occur, generally the native  
population in that area will have some legend or record of the same  
thing previously, whether it's fairy rings in Britain with people  
sometimes disappearing or some petrogylphs (as in this case) or a  
myth. The locals in Canada, we were surprised to find out, already

In Tibet and the Himalaya they just see them as guardians of place,

UFOlogists, take note:

  [ufo] 
http://www.homesfornh.com/dish-network-tv/blog/wp-content/uploads/2009/\

In a first-of-its-kind event, DISH Network has launched the DISH Earth
channel. A channel that will show our planet 24 hours a day, seven days
a week from the vantage point provided by DISH Network's EchoStar 11
satellite.

Orbiting some 23,000 miles above the Earth's equator, the stationary
satellite will provide DISH Network subscribers with stunning views of
our planet as the never-ending changes cross its surface. In addition to
the changes viewers might expect to witness such as the transition from
day to night (and vice versa) and wandering weather systems, some
speculate that the new camera may capture a passing UFO or two.

Launched during 2008, EchoStar 11 is positioned at 110 degrees west
longitude in order to provide television programming for DISH Network
customers who are inside the satellite's broadcast
footprint.

This development marks the first time in history that a camera has been
mounted on a commercial communications satellite. In development for six
years, the project was the result of a working partnership between DISH
Network, it's sister company EchoStar Spacecraft Operations Team,
Ecliptic Enterprises Corporation of Pasadena, CA, and Space
Systems/Loral. It is being operated under a license granted by the U.S.
National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA).

We are pleased to be able to offer, exclusively to our customers,
footage from the world's only Earth-viewing live video camera on a
commercial communications satellite, said Dave Shull, senior vice
president of Programming at DISH Network. What's more, from time to
time, the DISH Earth camera is able to capture some unique images,
including an unidentified flying object last August.

UFO buffs with copious amounts of time on their hands may want to keep
watch in DISH Channel 212 for any other-worldly visitors that may be
buzzing out planet. DISH Network customers who also have DVRs could also
record hours of the new channel and later fast-forward through the
footage for any interesting phenomenon,

Sounds like it could be an interesting tool for the guys in UFO Hunters.

Before anyone gets the idea that I'm making light of UFOs, and worse
yet, those who investigate such things, I will admit that I find the
whole UFO phenomenon quite interesting and I never miss an episode of
UFO Hunters myself.

And, as was shown in the video I posted a link to, 
the earth is also precisely positioned to cover the
sun exactly, from the moon's viewpoint.

Just one such arrangement between a star, a planet,
and the planet's satellite might be chalked up to
happy coincidence.

But *two*?

Astronomers tell us the orbit of the moon isn't
eternally fixed, but drifts slowly; that this precise

to see it, and will not be the case eons hence when
we're no longer around.

They say the real coincidence is that the tiny slice
of cosmological time in which there are humans on
earth *just happens* to be that which enables them
to observe the alignment in which the moon precisely
covers the sun (and to send a vehicle to orbit the
moon to observe the alignment in which the earth
precisely covers the sun).

I'm not buying it.

But I don't buy an Intelligent Designer having set
it up this way either, nor that there is an infinity
of different universes (talk about Occam's razor!).

There are just too many coincidences for us to be

Judy,

I'm not up on optics, but I believe that if the Moon covers the Sun
from an earthly POV, then the Earth MUST cover the Sun from a lunar
POV.  So you can't have one, but must have two equal POVs, so then
that would mean it's not a suspicious coincidence.  Not sure though. 
Anyone?

The Moon is moving about an inch per year away from us, so over time,
it's getting smaller and that means that someday it will be but a dot
crossing the Sun's disk instead of covering it completely.  

To me, it's not so much a red flag that God is afoot with tricks, but
that our having the Moon that is so close and so big compared to it's
parent planet was very rare and very lucky.  It helped life form in
many ways.

Yes, it is all about alignment of the earth, moon and sun and where
you are on the earth, or on the moon for that matter.  Simple
explanation here: http://star-www.st-and.ac.uk/~awc/eclipse.html

I had vague notions of being an astronaut when I was young.  Along
with a million other kids.  Loved astronomy.  

Sometimes I can weird myself out by thinking: How did all this come
together so perfectly that now I am sitting in a condo on Mustang
Island enjoying the internet?  Then again, I can think of all the
things that didn't come out so perfectly.  But the fact that nature
appears to operate within a set of rules is intensely fascinating and

Hey, consider this:  The water pump is thought to be the reason for
the start of the Industrial Revolution because it made pumping out
mines easy and ores, salt, chemicals like sulfur, became cheap.

Now, here's the cool part: the Romans had all the technology to build
a water pump 2,000 years earlier, but it just never got invented
despite metallurgy and manufacturing being up to the task if someone
had had the concept come to them.

History is replete with this stuff.  Mendel's pea plant experiments
went unnoticed for 30 years for instance, and think of all the gizmos
that didn't require much technology to create, say, the Hula Hoop, the
Yo-Yo, the Frisbie, the yoke for horses, military use of gunpowder,
etc. -- they just didn't get manifested -- no reason for it except the
serendipity of chance favoring a prepared mind.

In outer yoga, sun and moon progressively illuminate the
fields of outer and inner activity and define the phases of expansion and
decrease.  

  

In inner yoga the unification of sun and moon means placing
them together (samadhi) into a state of equal balance.

  

In innermost yoga, the sun and moon are the signatories of
sequence (krama), defined either by temporal succession or vertical causation.
Whether balanced or imbalanced, the sun and moon thus define the fundamental 
mortality
and interdependence of a being or system.
 Within innermost yoga, the eclipse of the sun or moon signifies the occlusion 
of any temporality or causal contingency. This is a state of freedom. The 
instantiation
of this freedom is the immediacy of transcendence within the living presence of 
an
individual being. 

Or you could just smoke some weed and call it enlightenment. Other stoners will 
agree and this certainly will confirm it forever.

It's interesting the superstitiousness of patriarchal Brahmanic  
thinking (often the opposite of tantric mindsets) has definitely  
become not only part of the TM org mindset, but an often an  
unshakeable part of many TMers beliefs. Witness some of the  
superstitions we've seen here: garlic is antithetical to your  
meditation and your evolution--it's not a part of real Ayurveda  
(even though classic Ayurvedic texts praise it), no pets in the room  
while you meditate, women are unclean during their period, don't  
touch the Maharishi he's so much purer than us, all other meditation  
techniques are inferior, don't read Vedic or yogic texts it will only  
confuse you, only speak the sweet truth--no critical thinking, at  
least out loud, etc.


The most destructive spiritual communities are the ones where the  
teacher has no shadow, they are purity incarnate, but inevitably  
patriarchal, power-centered, destructive ego trips. The student, not  
being so pure and shadow free, must follow or believe in strange  
rules if they are too evolve. I see little humility in such spiritual  
leaders.

Wrong. The Vedas say: During an eclipse of the earth, Earthstruck

chant Fly me to the Moon, resist hornyness, and squash the urge to

ECLIPSES OF THE SUN SEEN FROM THE MOON

...Just as the Moon does here, the Earth goes through its phases once
every 29.5 days. When the Sun crosses the meridian (the zenith for
observers on the lunar equator), the Earth is new, i.e., dark. When
the Earth is full the Sun is directly behind the Moon and it is night.
Sometimes, when the Earth is new, the Sun passes behind it and
observers see a solar eclipse.

During a solar eclipse the Sun moves behind the Earth at the same
speed as the Moon moves in front of the Sun during a solar eclipse on
Earth. But the Earth isn't orbiting the Moon and doesn't move across
the sky; rather, Earth's shadow is hanging there in space and the Moon
blunders into it. Lunar observers, though, see the shadow rushing
towards them across the ground, providing dramatic proof that the Moon
is moving relative to the Earth...

Maybe you don't know what you're losing when an eclipse happens.

I posted this paragraph awhile ago, but it pertains:

New concept: Once I took a Majorcan moonlight stroll with Maharishi
Mahesh Yogi -- along with about 200 others trailing him, and I don't
remember his words, but his concept was that the Moon was a powerhouse
of LOVE shining on all of us that night. Here's the new concept: if
Maharishi is enlightened, is pure love, then his loving the Moon was
what?wait for itwait.HIS OWN LOVE BEING REFLECTED OFF OF
THAT ORB. Enlightened persons are bright lights of some sort, right?
What they see in the world is what reflects back to them -- where
another pure soul is encountered, the reflection is most perfect and
the love sent is the least absorbed. I love this idea. Talk amongst
yourselves..it's buttah.

So, if that's true, all the love of humanity (not just a saint's love,
see?) that is sent to the moon is coming back at us, then consider
that an eclipse of the sun --  it's massive, the sun's worth about
4,000,000 moons, so get out your calculator to figure the amount of
love that one is suddenly bereft of when the Moon's shadow crosses
over head.

By the way, there is always a full eclipse at least two times per year
but never more than seven times per year.  The size of the spot on the
Earth is only 200 miles across, so the chances of having an eclipse

into the shadows instead of waiting for luck.  There is no theory for
why the Moon is so precisely positioned to cover the Sun exactly --
just a happenstance, not a certainty of the Earth-Moon formation
process.  In fact, it's a miracle.

 Wrong. The Vedas say: During an eclipse of the earth, Earthstruck

 an eclipse of the sun, Moonstruck Earthlings should stay indoors,
 chant Fly me to the Moon, resist hornyness, and squash the urge to

 ECLIPSES OF THE SUN SEEN FROM THE MOON
 
 ...Just as the Moon does here, the Earth goes through its phases once
 every 29.5 days. When the Sun crosses the meridian (the zenith for
 observers on the lunar equator), the Earth is new, i.e., dark. When
 the Earth is full the Sun is directly behind the Moon and it is night.
 Sometimes, when the Earth is new, the Sun passes behind it and
 observers see a solar eclipse.
 
 During a solar eclipse the Sun moves behind the Earth at the same
 speed as the Moon moves in front of the Sun during a solar eclipse on
 Earth. But the Earth isn't orbiting the Moon and doesn't move across
 the sky; rather, Earth's shadow is hanging there in space and the Moon
 blunders into it. Lunar observers, though, see the shadow rushing
 towards them across the ground, providing dramatic proof that the Moon
 is moving relative to the Earth...

In outer yoga, sun and moon progressively illuminate the fields of outer
and inner activity and define the phases of expansion and decrease.



In inner yoga the unification of sun and moon means placing them
together (samadhi) into a state of equal balance.



In innermost yoga, the sun and moon are the signatories of sequence
(krama), defined either by temporal succession or vertical causation.
Whether balanced or imbalanced, the sun and moon thus define the
fundamental mortality and interdependence of a being or system.




Within innermost yoga, the eclipse of the sun or moon signifies the
occlusion of any temporality or causal contingency. This is a state of
freedom. The instantiation of this freedom is the immediacy of
transcendence within the living presence of an individual being.





Or you could just smoke some weed and call it enlightenment. Other
stoners will agree and this certainly will confirm it forever.

[FairfieldLife] The Earth And Its People - lecture by Charlie Lutes

2007-12-13 Thread do.rflex


The Earth And Its People - 8/14/81

When on Earth, as in the present age, the number of demonic or
destructive people is rapidly increasing, as a result natural
disturbances are also increasing - such as cyclones, hurricanes, too
much heat, heavy snowfalls, volcanoes, tidal waves, earthquakes, etc.
The numbers of people murdered, robbed and injured also are
increasing. Countries where there is terrible unrest, riots,
revolutions,etc. indicate that these places are heavily inhabited by
such destructive people who are causing turmoil wherever they are. 

It is said that Mars and Saturn are impious planets and when they
shine brightly in the skies it is not a good sign. It is understood
that when there are constant disturbances on Earth it is a sign that
the destructive evil population is increasing, and as a result, fear
is generated among the good people and they do not know where to turn
for protection. 

The only place anyone can turn for refuge is to God.


If the unwanted destructive population continues to increase, the
Earth will become like hell. These destructive people are not
concerned with developing a trade or honorable profession in life;
rather they prefer to live on welfare or steal from others, and then
some deal in drugs, etc. to make a living from the misery of others. 

In essence, this is transferring Hell to this Earth. Destruction also
runs to higher levels of life such as those who would exploit the
resources of the world, pollute the rivers, lakes and oceans, and
destroy the forests, etc. for their own gain, regardless of who they
may injure. 

They would also wage war without any good reason except for personal
gain. Although there is a great price to pay for unnecessarily
disturbing the peace of the world, they plunge on in their destructive
ways creating their own particular hell and the hell to follow this
life. For one creating hell on Earth also creates his own hell in
afterlife.

Some on this Earth believe the power of God to be only material, and
in ignorance they pit themselves against this power. They also kill
and conquer people and nations in the guise of freeing the people only
to plunge them into slavery. This is why Christ said, Ye are of your
father the devil and his works shall ye do. 

Those who are on the spiritual path are seeking the light of God; God
will save them. All that is needed is devotion and perseverance. 

Even demons, when they are active in their destructive ways, believe
that their power is awesome and that God is hiding from them. Such is
the nature of their delusiveness. Again, they are very much disturbed
when there is a religious fervor or a spiritual wave among the people
for they fear this even though they do not know why or believe this.

Those of a demonic or destructive nature always believe that if they
have great wealth and power this will save them from the wrath of God.
They believe all on Earth to be their property. When it isn't, and in
countries where they try to drive God out and suppress religion, they
are never, ever successful. 

For a time they may appear to be successful on the surface, but below
the surface they are not really successful at all. There is, however,
a constant war going on between the negative forces and the positive
forces for control of the Earth. 

The Earth, like everything else, constantly fluctuates between the
three modes, or is a combination of the three modes of ignorance,
passion and Goodness. However, in the present time, the emphasis is on
ignorance and passion, with Goodness running a poor third. The highest
mode on Earth is Goodness, while the Almighty Creator and the Absolute
is pure Goodness, whereas on Earth there is no state of pure Goodness. 

In pure Goodness there cannot possibly be any contamination of
ignorance or passion. Hence, it is pure. The vibration would not
permit the expression of either lessor mode. 

The main thrust of humanity in life is to gain oneness with God, or
the pure light, and not become lost in the lesser expressions of
light. For what seems like the light to us is really, in the absolute
sense, still a lesser degree of darkness for we have not reached the
end of the tunnel.

When there comes a time of necessity on Earth an avatar comes and
straightens everything out. The word, avatar, means One who
descends, or God coming onto Earth. 

It is said that the Godly person is full of knowledge while the
destructive person is full of ignorance. Also, the main difference
between material enjoyment and spiritual enjoyment is that material
enjoyment has limitations and spiritual enjoyment has no end and it
keeps on increasing. 

The one great force that has the most binding influence on humanity is
the sex force. In its lower projection of lust it becomes demonic, and
there are those so caught up that they are possessed with a desire to
kill in their pursuit of lust. This is why we must always keep our
mind on God, or on the pure, because this protects us from becoming

Greetings to each of you! I know this is a bit early - I thought I 
ought to get a follow up newsletter out since the changes that the 
Masters spoke of are coming earlier than the actual event they spoke 
of, the tear in the fabric of creation which begins on Sept 6th and 
maximizes on the 14th or so. They will fill you in below.

What are we experiencing? Holy cow what a ride we are on! I have 
heard from many, many people about changes that we humans are 
experiencing in preface to the actual shift. There is a lot of body 
pain, sharp shooting pains particularly in the head. Not headaches, 
shooting pains. Also the feet, particularly the balls of the feet are 
demonstrating pain, particularly after sleeping or standing after 
sitting for a while. Some people are getting burning in their feet. 
The foot stuff is directly related to the earthquake activity that 
has escalated just as the masters said it would. Hang onto your hats 
because the earthquake activity is about to ramp up. Please don't 
take this with a fearful perspective, just a head's up. Particularly 
if you are in an earthquake zone. Some people are feeling pain in 
their major joints, hips, elbows for the most part. Don't shoot the 
messenger, but these symptoms will most likely get worse before they 
get better.

Other symptoms of the current coming shift are sleepless nights 
(including yours truly!), appetite changes including not being hungry 
at all or being ravenous for several days at a whack. Weigh issues 
are on the rise, but that is mostly fluid retention based upon the 
energy influences. Remember, we are mostly created of water so when 
there are huge changes in the universe, our bodies are going to 
respond. Sometimes that means fluid gain for a while. This too shall 
pass. Another thing that is happening is brain fog. Jut try to think 
of that word you mean to say, or to recall someone's name, even 
though you know it as well as your own. 

The most intense for people have been the emotional ups and downs. 
That is rampant and there have been lots of arguments among people 
who just don't do that, misunderstandings like a mercury retrograde 
on steroids. Be sure to be very clear with what you say or do, then 
follow up even when it is with someone that you trust because pretty 
much everyone is affected with the energies right now.

The truth is that all in all the old paradigms are dying. They no 
longer work. I know that I said that before, but if whatever you are 
doing isn't working, look for new or creative ways to go about them. 
Mostly, please, look inside of you. Go into your hearts and ask the 
real you what you can do differently to avoid misunderstandings or 
taking things personally. Don't depend on anyone else for validation 
of your choices. Ask yourself how you can change old ways so that you 
are free of them. All it takes is making a different choice in a 
moment and lives change forever. Believe me, I know!

The positive side of all of this is that with the new energies are 
coming new and exciting teachings from the ethers. I know that many 
of you are experiencing new types of awakenings that are often 
profound. My advice is to stay out of your heads with this. Don't try 
to understand. Let the information free flow into you. When you need 
it, it will be fully present to you. You will wonder how you knew it!

Look closely to your dreams. There is a lot of night school going on 
right now. The guides are coming and the Masters are roaming the 
dimensions, sharing and caring and leaving us with what we need 
toward total recall of our light beingness. Also in our dreams, many 
of us are processing our day time lives big time. Look for the 
symbolism, don't take your dreams literally. Often your dreams will 
tell you volumes through symbols or things that represent something 
to you. What we can't always face in our waking time, our dreams will 
process with us.

Remember, through it all, that each of us is whole and perfect just 
as we are, no matter how the moment looks, if we are forcing or 
fighting anything we must look at what it is we are really doing., 
Usually it isn't at all about what we are uncomfortable with in the 
moment, but something, some issue, that we are carrying deep within 
us. Generally this is a fear that we just don't want to own, so it 
causes us dysfunction in our lives until we meet it head on and 
dispense with it. It isn't as hard as it sounds and we don't have to 
relive the pain of whatever experience in the past caused it. Just 
let go. Life is too short and there is so much beautiful for us all!

Well, I am thrilled to tell you that I finished Conversations with 
the Children of Now last night (Ya!) It comes out in February. I 
interviewed 15 kids for the book about life, death, love, God, 2012 
and many other subjects that we humans always want to know about. The

 Posted by  Stephen Shankland  
Google has acquired ImageAmerica, a company that builds 
high-resolution cameras and uses them to take aerial photographs. 
(Credit: Google)
  The search engine giant announced the move Friday on its LatLong blog about  
Google Earth and its other mapping efforts. It didn't disclose terms of the 
deal. 
 We're excited about how ImageAmerica's technology will contribute to our 
mapping services down the road, Product Manager Stephen Chau said on the blog. 
Since we're in the research and development phase right now it may be some 
time before you see any of this imagery in Google Maps or Earth. 
 ImageAmerica supplied Google Earth with high-resolution aerial photos of New 
Orleans after Hurricane Katrina struck in 2005. 
 According to older pages from the Internet Archive's Wayback Machine, Clayton, 
Mo.-based ImageAmerica specialized in creating aerial photos with accuracy, 
quick delivery and low cost, selling primarily to city, county, state and 
federal governments and to corporate customers. In addition to developing its 
DDP-2 (Direct Digital Panoramic) camera system, the company has its own 
aircraft to house it. The high-resolution camera can capture details as small 
as 6 to 12 inches, and the company's processing system can produce 
orthorectified imagery that's been corrected for perspective distortions. 
 Google has extensive efforts under way to add geographic data to its already 
vast repository of information. Its Google Earth application lets users view 
satellite imagery, and its Google Maps service provides aerial views as well. 
Google also has begun integrating street-level views into its maps, a move that 
has raised some privacy hackles.

 who logged on to Live Earth.
   Control Room, producer of Live Earth and Live 8, said it found that the

   Live 8 was streamed by users more than 100 million times in the six weeks

 more than 80 percent of the viewership will be on-demand in the days after

  Live 8 was the first major multi-venue event successfully streamed live with 
Time Warner Inc.'s AOL portal on the Web. AOL said 5 million people had logged 
on to the event on the day of those shows, but it did not say how many Internet 
streams of the event there had been.
  MSN said it would not be able to immediately determine the number of people 
who logged on to Live Earth.
  Control Room, producer of Live Earth and Live 8, said it found that the 
on-demand streams in the days after the Live 8 had the most impact, especially 
after clips were passed around by e-mail.
  Live 8 was streamed by users more than 100 million times in the six weeks 
following the shows.
  Live Earth is predicted to be three times bigger with organizers expecting 
more than 80 percent of the viewership will be on-demand in the days after the 
event.

[FairfieldLife] Habitable earth-like Exo-planet found

2007-04-25 Thread Jason Spock
 
  Distant planet judged possibly habitable
   
  April 23, 2007
Courtesy ESO 
and World Science staff
   
  In a findshy;ing that if conshy;firmed could stand as a landshy;mark in 
history, asshy;troshy;noshy;mers have reshy;ported 
disshy;coshy;vshy;ershy;ing the most Earth-like planshy;et outshy;side 
our Soshy;lar Sysshy;tem to date: a world that may have liqshy;uid oceans 
and thus life.

Swiss, French and Porshy;tushy;guese scishy;enshy;tists found the body, 
esshy;tishy;mated as 50 pershy;cent widshy;er than our Earth, 
orshy;bitshy;ing a so-called red dwarf star relshy;ashy;tively close to 
Earth. The star is thought to harshy;bor two othshy;er planshy;ets alshy;so.


 Artist's imshy;presshy;sion of a sysshy;tem of 
three planshy;ets surshy;roundshy;ing the red dwarf Gliese 581. 
(Courshy;teshy;sy ESO)
  
-
  
  The newshy;found exoshy;plashy;nshy;et—as asshy;troshy;noshy;mers call 
planshy;ets around stars othshy;er than the Sun—would be the smallshy;est 
such body evshy;er reshy;ported. 

Noneshy;theshy;less, the object is esshy;tishy;matshy;ed to weigh as much 
as five Earths, partshy;ly thanks to its greatshy;er width. For the same 
reashy;son, it would have more than twice Earth’s surshy;face arshy;ea. 
Hisshy;torshy;ishy;cally, only large exoshy;plashy;nshy;ets lend 
themshy;selves to hushy;man deshy;tectshy;ion, though that is changshy;ing.

Othshy;er cushy;rishy;ous feashy;tures of the newshy;found planshy;et are 
that gravshy;ishy;ty at its surshy;face would be around twice as strong as 
on Earth; and its year is just 13 Earth days long, as it compshy;letes one 
orshy;bit about its sun in that time.

It’s 14 times closshy;er to its star than we are from our Sun, 
reshy;searchshy;ers said. But since its host star, the red dwarf Gliese 581, 
is smaller and coolshy;er than the Sun, the planshy;et nevshy;ertheless 
would lie in its habshy;itshy;ashy;ble zone—the reshy;gion around a star 
with suitshy;ashy;ble temshy;peshy;rshy;ashy;tures for liqshy;uid 
washy;ter. 

Avshy;ershy;age temshy;peshy;rshy;ashy;tures on this “supeshy;r-Earth” 
lie beshy;tween 0 and 40 deshy;grees Celshy;sishy;us (32 to 104 
deshy;grees Fahrenshy;heit), “and washy;ter would thus be liqshy;uid,” said 
Stéshy;phane Udry of Switzshy;ershy;land’s Geshy;neshy;va 
Obshy;servshy;ashy;toshy;ry, lead aushy;thor of a pashy;peshy;r 
reshy;portshy;ing the reshy;sult. “Modshy;els preshy;dict that the 
planshy;et should be eishy;ther rockshy;y—like our Earth—or covshy;ered 
with oceans,” he added.

“Liqshy;uid washy;ter is critshy;ishy;cal to life as we know it,” 
notshy;ed Xashy;vishy;er Delfosse, a memshy;ber of the team from 
Greshy;noshy;ble Unishy;vershy;sishy;ty, France. “Beshy;cause of its 
temshy;peshy;rshy;ashy;ture and relshy;ashy;tive 
proxshy;imshy;ishy;ty, this planshy;et will most probshy;ashy;bly be a 
very imshy;porshy;tant tarshy;get of the fushy;ture space misshy;sions 
dedshy;ishy;catshy;ed to the search for extra-terrestrial life. On the 
treasshy;ure map of the Unishy;verse, one would be tempted to mark this 
planshy;et with an X.” 


The arshy;row marks the apshy;proxshy;ishy;mate 
loshy;cashy;tion of the red dwarf star Gliese 581 with reshy;spect to the 
conshy;stelshy;lashy;tion Lishy;bra vishy;sishy;ble in the southshy;ern 
sky. 
  
-
  
  The host star, Gliese 581, is among the 100 closshy;est stars to us, 
lyshy;ing 20.5 light-years away in the conshy;stelshy;lashy;tion Lishy;bra 
(“the Scales.”) A light-year is the disshy;tance light travshy;els in a year. 

Gliese 581 has one third the mass of our Sun. Such small stars, called red 
dwarfs, are at least 50 times faintshy;er than the Sun and are beshy;lieved 
to be the most comshy;mon stars in our galshy;axy. Among the 100 closshy;est 
stars to the Sun, 80 beshy;long to this class.

“Red dwarfs are ideshy;al tarshy;gets for the search for such planshy;ets 
beshy;cause they emit less light, and the habshy;itshy;ashy;ble zone is 
thus much closshy;er to them than it is around the Sun,” said Xashy;vishy;er 
Bonshy;fils, a co-reshy;searcher from Lisshy;bon Unishy;vershy;sishy;ty. 
Planshy;ets near a star are easshy;ishy;er to deshy;tect beshy;cause their 
gravshy;ishy;tashy;tionshy;al pull afshy;fects the parshy;ent star 
noshy;ticeshy;ably, inshy;ducshy;ing someshy;thing of a wigshy;gling 
moshy;tion.

Red dwarfs are alshy;so exshy;pected to live 
exshy;traorshy;dishy;narshy;ily long beshy;cause they burn fushy;el 
slowshy;ly. A red dwarf one-third the Sun’s mass, like Gliese 581, would 
typshy;ishy;calshy;ly shine for some 130 bilshy;lion years, 
outshy;livshy;ing the Sun by thirshy;teen times. That might reshy;lieve at 
least one source of stress for any inshy;habshy;ishy;tants of a red dwarf 
sysshy;tem. We on Earth are alshy;ready halfshy;way through the Sun’s 
lifeshy;time, though much time reshy;mains.

Fairfield, Iowa, is one of 12 Great Places You've Never Heard Of, 
according to the August-September issue of Mother Earth News.

Great Places, according to the magazine, range in size from Blue 
Hill, a small arts community of 2,346 residents half way up the cost 
of Maine, to St. George, a town of 59,780 in the southwest corner of 
Utah near Zion National Park. 

Fairfield, with 9,459 residents, has more restaurants per capita than 
San Francisco, and is a surprisingly sustainable and cosmopolitan 
town, the magazine says. Also noted are the Iowa town's connection 
with Maharishi University, organic food and entrepreneurs.

 I don't think that's the point. The point is it shows the extreme  
 jealousy of M. who obviously can't deal with the loss of his
 movement to SSRS's now larger and more vital movement...so he puts 
 SSRS down to his few remaining students. Not surprising, but not the 
 greatest thing one would want to hear.

For the record, the sweet poison warning goes
at least as far back as 1998 and referred 
specifically to a hyperventilation-type breathing
technique Shankar taught (called, I believe, 
Sudarshan Kriya).

According to someone on alt.m.t who had spent time
in Shankar's ashram in 1978, Shankar had only broken
with the TMO fairly recently at the time the person
was posting in 1994.  He was said then not to be
interested in starting a movement (and was known as
Pundit Ravi Shankar; Sri Sri apparently came later).

The point being that at the time MMY issued the
sweet poison warning, probably around 1994, the
TMO was still in full swing, and Shankar apparently
did not pose any kind of major threat in terms of
even starting a movement of his own, let alone one
that could compete with the TMO.

Perhaps MMY foresaw that he would do so, but that
doesn't appear to have been evident at the time.

In any case, contrary to Vaj's suggestion, the
sweet poison warning about the hyperventilation
technique is hardly a recent development.

puts 
  SSRS down to his few remaining students. Not surprising, but not 
the 
  greatest thing one would want to hear.
 
 For the record, the sweet poison warning goes
 at least as far back as 1998 and referred 
 specifically to a hyperventilation-type breathing
 technique Shankar taught (called, I believe, 
 Sudarshan Kriya).
 
 According to someone on alt.m.t who had spent time
 in Shankar's ashram in 1978, Shankar had only broken
 with the TMO fairly recently at the time the person
 was posting in 1994.  He was said then not to be
 interested in starting a movement (and was known as
 Pundit Ravi Shankar; Sri Sri apparently came later).
 
 The point being that at the time MMY issued the
 sweet poison warning, probably around 1994, the
 TMO was still in full swing, and Shankar apparently
 did not pose any kind of major threat in terms of
 even starting a movement of his own, let alone one
 that could compete with the TMO.
 
 Perhaps MMY foresaw that he would do so, but that
 doesn't appear to have been evident at the time.
 
 In any case, contrary to Vaj's suggestion, the
 sweet poison warning about the hyperventilation
 technique is hardly a recent development.


Well, a warning about a technique isn't the same as referring to SSRS 
himself as sweet poison, which was what I was questioning.

 Since none of this is dated or given a clear reference it's hard

The actual comment, referring to the hyperventilation
technique, was sweet poison, and we know it was made
prior to 1998, i.e., well before the TMO could be said
to have been lost to Shankar's now larger and more
vital movement or that it was a putdown of Shankar by
MMY to MMY's few remaining students.

As noted, Shankar had broken with the TMO sometime not
long prior to 1994, so the sweet poison warning
would have had to have been issued at some point in
between then and 1998.

Born in 1956 in Papanasam, India, His Holiness Sri Sri Ravi Shankar
studied with many renowned spiritual masters and became a scholar of
Vedic Literature. By the age of seventeen, he obtained an Advanced
Degree in Modern Physics.

In 1982, His Holiness Sri Sri Ravi Shankar founded the Art of Living
Foundation

http://www.artofliving.org/founder.html


In 1982, he started the Art of Living Foundation, a United Nations NGO
and introduced to the world 'Sudarshan Kriya technique'—a unique
breathing process, which removes stress and negative toxins from the
body by rejuvenating each and every cell. The Foundation aims at
fostering health at every conceivable human level-mental, physical,
emotional as well as spiritual.

http://www.webindia123.com/personal/religious/sriravi.htm



I took his basic course with him in 1994 or 95. By then, it was quite
a mature movement -- in that some friends had been to india with him
4-5 years or more previously, lots of people on courses, including
many former initiators, had been with him for a long time -- 6,7 years +

[EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote:

 Even if you may consider me as somehow arrogant, but I allow 
myself to tell 
 you that I would like to open your eyes a little bit now. First of 
all I 
 have already been an independent mind before, while and after 
having started 
 with TM. My master is my master but he is not my mental guardian 
or nurse. I 
 am a free man and not a mental slave. This as first preliminary 
vedic ideal 
 to be mentioned and herewith postulated.
 
 Instead of asking, where Maharishi has been stating this or that 
the 
 question would be much more intelligently raised by asking, how 
Maharishi 
 would probably react in case you challenged his intellect by some 
tricky 
 problematics.
 
 You may remember the commentary on the Bhagavadgita, where 
Maharishi 
 described the necessity to challenge one's master in order to make 
him set 
 free more knowledge. (By the way this challenge according to my 
opinion is 
 not being taking place sufficiently by his disciples).
 
 Now after this introductory citation I come back to the main 
general point 
 by whose solution your fundamental questioning of authority makes 
most of 
 the consecutive doubtfully interposed questions at least formally 
obsolete.
 
 I myself took the opportunity to challenge Maharishi several times 
in my 
 life in direct contact, in order to get the validation of that 
answer, which 
 I have already been giving to myself through mere setting free of 
inherent 
 CI (= Creative Intelligence). This is the self-evident purpose and 
result of 
 this spiritual practice (self-unfolding in double sense of the 
word).
 
 In one case I brought my challenge to the peak point, because I 
dared to 
 doubt about an old-established model even, which Maharishi had 
launched as 
 one of his most fundamental ones. The reaction of the master gave 
me the 
 proof that it was worth to herald him at such high esteem, because 
his 
 answer was clear, modest and onepointed; I told him that the 
bubble-diagram 
 must be wrong, because transcending according to the law of 
irreversability 
 of processes in nature dictates the mind to walk in one direction 
only, and 
 that is from Atman (point value of inifinity = smaller than the 
smallest) to 
 Brahman (expanded value of infinity = bigger than the biggest). In 
fact 
 smaller than the smallest is essentially the same as bigger than 
the 
 biggest. This is the only reason, why the mind is enabled to 
transcend, that 
 is to say just by rescuing itself in the most expanded value in 
order to be 
 able to come back to the starting point of all manífestation. So 
I said to 
 Maharishi, Transcending is a process of constant engrossment of 
the mantra 
 until it reaches its most expanded value and such the mind alone 
can find 
 back to its source. Without hesitation Maharishi agreed. It was 
in late 
 summer 1979 at the Golden Hall at Seelisberg-Switzerland. He 
literrally said 
 to me in presence of the audience: You are absolutely right in 
what you 
 say. We just held this model as a working model for practical 
reasons only.
 
 So thinking by yourself is not only allowed but vital necessary, 
as already 
 the great philosopher Immanuel Kant found out. His maxims of human 
thinking 
 (= emancipation) were:
 
 1.  Think !
 2.  Think by yourself !
 3.  Think consecutively !
 4.  Think up to the end !
 
 Very often I have to doubt, whether meditators - in their tendency 
to 
 regressive development - have ever come beyond stage 2. Whereas 
the 
 majority of the population at average moves at least somwhere in 
between 
 stage 2 and 3. A genuine spiritual seeker is expetced to range 
somewhere 
 between thinking level 3 and 4.
 
 Maharishi has never taught to surrender in a non-critical manner. 
This are 
 old-fashioned concepts out of the moth's chest of topsy-turby 
theories on 
 Yoga, where constantly cause and effect got fatalistically turned 
upside 
 down (best example: concentration is the input of meditation 
even though 
 it is the output of the interaction of the three gunas in the mind 
(= 
 samyama, which leads to the state of ekagrata parinama or 
constant flow of 
 the mind in one thought (= what is meant by the real meaning of 
the word 
 concentration). And this again is identical with the state of at 
least 
 savikalpa-samadhi). Samadhi is by the way also a constant process 
and not a 
 static state, the same way as diving is always going along with 
some effort 
 to be able to stay underneath the surface and not a static notion, 
staying 
 at one spot without further invested dynamics.
 

Thank you for your comments, Hagen. What you have shared often seems 
to be missing in the various discussions here regarding Maharishi; 
that we should always 'seek' intelligently and vigorously, asking 
and challenging along the way. I agree with your assessment that 
this doesn't occur enough with Maharishi, and yet it is *absolutely 
vital* if the

I would see MMY and SSRS as having a much closer
connection than MMY and Chopra. SSRS sees MMY as his
guru. MMY saw SSRS when he was 12 when he visited a
Brahmin school in India. MMY asked SSRS parents to
have him stay with him. They agreed and SSRS was with
MMY running the TMO in India for close to 20 years.
SSRS has a room for MMY in his ashram in south India
always ready for him.
