Yup, whence faced with all the ignorance and negativity around here things like this needs to be said periodically as good reminder of the truth of matters, Maharishi Said: “The Veda [Scripture] reveals the unchanging Unity of life which underlies the evident multiplicity of creation, for Reality is both manifest and unmanifest, and That alone is “I am That, thou art That, and all this is That is the Truth”; and this is the kernel of the Vedic teaching, which the Rishis extold as teaching “worthy of hearing, contemplating, and realizing” fleetwood_macncheese@...> wrote : Perfectly expressed. Barry unwittingly solidifies his position of ignorance. He is being absolutely truthful here. He doesn't know the first thing about enlightenment, except for his lifetime total of three weeks of "dirty" (unstable) witnessing. Enlightenment will always remain in the fiction section of his library. ---In FairfieldLife@yahoogroups.com, <turquoiseb@...> wrote :
I agree. Just make sure that when it comes out it's stored in the Fiction section of the library. :-) Subject: Re: [FairfieldLife] Enlightenment A collection of Fleet's published FFL writings here about enlightenment would make a really fine anthology on the subject. -Buck in the Dome turquoiseb wrote : Fine.

Since I've met canines who were more enlightened than Jim Flanegin, I'll pass, thanks. :-) :-) :-) Subject: [FairfieldLife] Enlightenment I know he is enlightened because of his first person accounts. I can relate to what he is talking about by experience. He is very clear and accurate in his writings.

I imagine the exchange went something like this. Barry's FFL Secretary: Sir, I think you should see this. BW: What is it! Can't you see I'm busy updating my list of things I don't like, people I find stupid, and, of course, things I can berate "believers" about. BS: But sir, I think...... BW: Okay, what is it already! BS: Sir, it 's from Flannegan. he says, sir, that, .....that, you're envious of his enlightenment. BW: What! Why didn't you tell me this before! What am I paying you for? Let me exit out of this list, page 4 and address this. And keep me informed of any other developments along these lines. I have a reputation to uphold!

I have to thank the person who just forwarded a quote from Jimbo The Faux Enlightened to me, cuz otherwise I wouldn't have seen it and laughed this hard. The quote was: "Good example is Barry's naked and raw envy of my enlightened state." I really LOVE this, because it actually tops JohnR's ludicrous and clueless, "Atheists are really angry at God" quote. That one was laughable because he managed to convince himself that people who don't believe in a God are "really" angry at the being they don't believe exists. I foolishly thought that nothing could *possibly* be more stupid than that. But now comes Jimbo's quote, putting JohnR's in the shade. :-) The person WHO CANNOT PRODUCE A *SINGLE PERSON* WHO BELIEVES HE IS ENLIGHTENED somehow wants you to believe that I am *envious* of him for being enlightened. Did these people spend their time in meditation sniffing glue? What *happened* to their brains to make them this dense? I've honestly met more intelligent turnips. :-) :-) :-) Free clue, Mr. Enlightened Trailer Trash -- NO ONE believes you are enlightened. Thus NO ONE is in any way "envious" of your "enlightened state." You're just demonstrating the extent of your narcissism.
