BTW, Buck, before you go off on one of your Fascist "Gotta silence these neganauts on FFL" rants, I am *not* saying that the world would not benefit if more people learned to meditate. I'm saying that I don't think that TM has a snowball's
chance in hell of being the form of meditation they learn. ---In FairfieldLife@yahoogroups.com, <fairfieldlife@yahoogroups.com> wrote: Oh, I get it - the TMers are stupid to try and fly but you're smart when you claimed Rama could levitate. And you're smart when you gave MMY $5,000 and Rama $10,000 to learn how to fly, and I paid $35 to learn TM. Yeah, Wright.

TMSP should take the advice I gave a long time ago - break completely away from the Movement , distance yourself from Marshy and start fresh. Teach people without all the baggage - that MIGHT work, maybe. ..Light of the Himalayas I don't give a shit what you or he thinks or is impressed by and if you had any sense at all, you would realize one doesn't need "knowledge" of mantra yoga to know the deal on this, one only need know cons and con artists when one sees or hears one. ---In FairfieldLife@yahoogroups.com, <fairfieldlife@yahoogroups.com> wrote: MJ writes: This is complete nonsense - Marshy said this to differentiate what he taught from what was commonly available so he could hood-wink people into believing he had a superior product. He continued to use the very same scam into his dotage with his lies about south facing entrance being inimical to human life. Those two things and every thing else in between he claimed to have the superior product - and that's what they were and are product to be sold. Dear Shit-for-Brains; This is about radical spiritual transformation looking to affect scientific revolutionary evolutionary change. We are about the revolutionary positive power for change in the transcendental deep meditation of the Unified Field. Not just some altruism. It is the application of the science of natural law, the experience of the divine of nature in the human form. -Buck ---In FairfieldLife@yahoogroups.com, <fairfieldlife@yahoogroups.com> wrote: In 40 years of working with Maharishi it was always obvious to me that he decided things from the level of his towering intellect and his cosmic independence of thought. Suggestions which any of us might have made, whatever they were, were judged against a universal, timeless, limitless framework. The fundamental thing we need to bear in mind is that this (our) movement belongs to Maharishi, lock, stock and barrel. From the level of Brahman Consciousness he owns the knowledge and he owns the administrative policies. What a bullshit post ... "It means what I want it to mean!" Well it certainly is what It is. I am sorry that It is not your experience. -Buck The Rajas, they are Maharishi’s appointed representatives. It is their duty to carry out his wishes. Good luck with persuading them otherwise… The fact that I am a scientist means I must pay attention to facts. This handicaps me, you could say… it limits me to making statements based on reality. And that’s what research is for—separating fact from speculation. “Therefore since we have been justified through experience, we have peace with the Unified Field through our meditation, through which we have gained access by practice into this grace in which we now stand. And we rejoice in the hope of the glory of the Unified Field.” -A generalized and truth-filled transliteration of Romans 5: 1-2 Way more than just in faith It's our experience. -Buck Okay, not translation. Not transliteration. Yes, it's paraphrase. “Therefore since we have been justified through experience, we have peace with the Unified Field through our meditation, through which we have gained access by practice into this grace in which we now stand.

A transliteration would involve working from the original Greek and writing the Greek words in the English alphabet. It sounds to me like a variation on one of the major translations (this is the KJV): "Therefore being justified by faith, we have peace with God through our Lord Jesus Christ: By whom also we have access by faith into this grace wherein we stand, and rejoice in hope of the glory of God." A more appropriate term would be "paraphase" or "adaptation." ---In FairfieldLife@yahoogroups.com, <fairfieldlife@yahoogroups.com> wrote: "Therefore since we have been justified through experience, we have peace with the Unified Field through our meditation, through which we have gained access by practice into this grace in which we now stand.
