Some non-guvs went over on a bus from the Manor, and apparently waited for hours in a hallway waiting for the master to walk by. Thankfully for some reason I didn't.

--- In FairfieldLife@yahoogroups.com, anonyff [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: I just found my old notebook, where I had written it down (I wasn't present, its just a copy that was circulated at some courses): Every day is life. It is not that we pass on the present for some glorius future. We are working out unity, but it should not be thought that we begin living life when in unity. Every day is life. Don't keep on planning. All the days would be lost. Live simpler form of awareness. Don't entertain conflicts. That in itself is the mechanics of success of the future. Life must be lived in its fullness every day, every hour. Complications don't lead us anywhere. Too complicated is not the direction in the age of enlightenment. Nature is the most efficient organizer. The technique of accomplishment is desire, coming back to the self and becoming unbounded. The last sentence is obviously a reference to the siddhis. Was that the time? Could it have been around 76 / 77. Also the phrase 'simplest form of awareness' was in use some time, maybe at the start of the siddhis. I can definitely say that the above quote was copied by me, as it was circulated on copysheets at this time. I also found the quote with the 'smoke of a rotten bus': We should be very natural and easy about life. We are not to be anxious about activity or meditation. Everything is tested by how quickly our desires get fulfilled - by our achievements. Never should we be anxious. When the time comes even the chirping of a bird could be the stimulus for enlightenment - even the smoke of a rotten bus. Its the next stage of awakening. There is nothing spectacular about it. Don't think about where we are. Don't think that New York is horrible. One can get to the sap while remaining on the hard point of the sap (thorn?). We can get anywhere. The atmosphere we don't mind. It's a very wrong emphasis that the atmosphere is bad and therefore we get drained. It's the karma of our practise. Once we don't make a fuss about our environment, then nature will take care of us. It will put us in the right environment. Be easy and natural Seeing this quote in retrospect, and realizing that many people got awakenings after leaving the movement or while doing so, phrases like: 'Don't think about where we are' and 'It will put us in the right environment' take a completely new meaning. Thinking about this, I remember having heard, that MMY had once said to Mrs. Eickhoff (german who founded the first european TM residence), that many people would come to the movement who would just pass through, and belonged to another path. It is very clear to me, that he always saw things from a broader perspective, quite to the contrary what is usually said or thought in the movement. Shemp You're welcome. Be aware that it's a paraphrase. up until the three dots (...) it's pretty acurate, after that it sums up what he said in kinda sorta those words. Maybe Rick can add to it to make it more accurate.

If it was the same conference, I DO remember MMY got furious at a young man who was on the staff doing tapes and/or printing for the TMO in S.Fallsburg. I cannot remember what this person had done, but MMY yelled at him for a full 5 minutes. I was so shook up, having never seen MMY treat someone this way. From my perspective it seemed undeserved, because the boy tried to explain what was really the situation, and MMY would not let him finish and continued to yell at him in front of all of us. So the young man gave up trying to explain the situation and just stood there and took it. Yahoo!
