I notice that many male TM teachers seem to now be wearing a sort of standard uniform, a light tan suit.
Curious to me that people group by ideology rather than focus on discovery. Discovery undoes what was previously thought, disruptive to ideology. If you think you know what will be found, there is no point in looking. ---In FairfieldLife@yahoogroups.com, <dhamiltony2k5@...> wrote : Ollie, No not all that here (uniforms, armbands and such) but at least there be a show of a willingness to participate within a framework of civility that the Yahoo-Groups does lay out to foster the group. That has been made plenty clear as it is expected by Yahoo-groups that any group protect civility within discourse itself with self-moderation. Clearly some people are not as able at ‘doing’ groups as others and in extremes some individuals can be hurtful to the life of groups. There is a reliance on a co-operation of self-moderation that is expected or at least implied in participating in any group to facilitate communal benefit for individuals. Joining in to most any group there is a joining in willing conspiracy around mission. Yahoo-Groups makes it clear that its groups should protect the life and mission of its individual groups themselves. Clearly Yahoo-groups asks for self-moderation of everyone in its groups and then it does provide tools to its groups for this. ---In FairfieldLife@yahoogroups.com, <olliesedwuz@...> wrote : We could all wear [virtual] uniforms, with armbands, and sing choruses of union and triumph over the lesser beings.

Archer, I hope you will stick around. You bring up a good point about the branding of FairfieldLife over this Yahoo-Group. There is still consideration going on of proposals as to making this spiritual yahoo-group heave to more exclusive topics of spiritual interest for this next month while so much of a higher spiritual order is going on in Fairfield, Iowa. I may work on these proposals more particularly this next week as I return from some brief travels to that spiritual place of Fairfield, Iowa life. I would look forward to your help with this. -JaiGuruYou ---In FairfieldLife@yahoogroups.com, <archonangel@...> wrote : I take it from the content here that no one here practices TM Or if they do, get any benefits from TM, or display any of the intelligence or behavior that is supposed to result from TM.
