Re: [FairfieldLife] Rudra Joe- Are you familiar with my hero?

Vaj, Given which "fact"? I don't see a single thing in your whole post that would qualify as a fact in terms of having any scientific basis. It is becoming more and more clear why you try to deny/discredit the Rig Veda's description of Soma. You have an obvious schizophrenia about drugs. It's funny that you talk the Vedic/Hindu/Indian/TMO talk, but can't accept the message of one of its earliest liturgical foundations. What's your best brief on why you think Wasson was a whacko and amanita muscaria was not Soma? Come on; humor me. -Mark -----Ah come on Mark, I think Vaj is about the esoteric rather than literal. Nobody knows everything, and I bet he would admit such as well. I think so far almost everyone but myself conceeds that we don't know what soma is. I personally think that the amanita idea is scoffable, though in the sense of what I call the  witch ointment theory, since herbs and plants work synergistically it would be just as scoffable to think that the finished soma mixture was one single plant only. My guess is that whatever it was would also contain a MAO inhibitor like the Ayuhuasca brews of the Amazon. Pprolly also a hallucinogen and a stimulant.  If it also made one very inebriated then my guess is the flying ointment was very powerful.  I bet the soma totally lit you up.   That was the joy of being a priest, and how I learned that enlightenment can in fact come through the effortless method of drugs. But enlightenment doesn't mean one is a bodhisattva or working for others benefits too spread the joy.  So my feeling is that being a Brahmana was too insular and therefore fearful of it's own purity and therefore weak. Brahmin culture is weak because it's a niche genepool without much diversity, and will be until its gene, and meme pool opens up to accept the entire world. Hey, if your gotra is Vasistha then it means still that you're 100 percent Indian because they have never much outermarried into other cultures.  If your religion was rishi then you were going to be merely relegated to that historical niche.    On the other hand, Democracy will continue to grow, or at least its ideals.  Because we are spreading the American gene and meme pool.  Maharishi's gene and meme pool is becoming more fanatically self alligned and insular, whereas Islam and Democracy, those two religions, are spreading. So yeah Maharishi another window onto the Sat Yuga yet again.  Like I haven't experienced for 20 minutes now.  But give that sat yuga to those who can't and don't even know about it. Go out and surprise everyone with blessings.  This is what the Rishi culture always needed, not merely yajnas for the rich.  Maharishi you fucking asshole. You're a car in reverse on a freeway you dipshit. You fucked up. You blew it. It's simply hard for you to believe because you come from an elitist pundit race which believes anything.  Goddamnyou maharishi, you could have broken through but you fucked up you..... Maharishi listen too me. You fucked up. With America.  Yeah, keep your pocket pools of small minded memes, your portholes onto sat yuga. Yeah keep it.
