We are most grateful to all those who came answering the call and sat up in their meditations with us in Fairfield, Iowa. It has been our honor to have had those who traveled from distant places joining alongside us here in collective meditation in these times. -JaiGuruYou
Those of you that have been going to the Domes recently will be aware that many of our friends from across the country have joined us here in Fairfield over the last week or so, and they have helped boost the overall attendance in evening program to over 750 people. If you arent able to attend any of the official flying halls, please try to do group program together with friends in 2s, 3s, 4s, etc., whatever is convenient, and aim to start your yogic flying practice at the official CST times of 8:15 am and 5:45 pm.

Besides, I personally have a different spiritual philosophy to that expounded by Maharishi, one which differs in certain fundamental aspects, it would seem, one which touches both my heart and mind deeply in a manner that leaves no room for the grafting of branches from other trees. I’m not sure I could listen to too much coffee-shop conversation without suggesting the smelling of stronger coffee all round.

Remember all that TM has given you- is giving you, the countless blessings, and return your gratitude to the source. Gratitude and praise open a channel for support of nature to come to you. Listen to and read what Maharishi said about the Maharishi Effect. A full commitment by individuals who gather in groups is all that it takes. Future generations will be so grateful when they learn about you--what you did for them, this world, the future. And that includes the sacrifices you made moving to Fairfield remaining true to your convictions and to the tradition from which the knowledge came. Jai Guru Dev, ---In FairfieldLife@yahoogroups.com, <archonan...@yahoo.com> wrote : Quite a few of my friends meditate, and some are teachers, but most of us live far from Fairfield, IA. But we are scattered over a wide area so group gatherings of meditators tends to take place only during quarterly celebrations or occasional group meditations. Attempting to get enlightened is not a military campaign against the outer world, it is a campaign against our inner inadequacies. The outer world takes care of itself, as it says in Tao Te Ching: "So the wise adhere to action through non-action, And communicate the teaching without words." Extolling meditators to perform under command, as if they were a seal on the commercial stage balancing a ball on its nose, negates the spontaneity of effortless flow. Those who live in movement facilities live under this constriction, but those who do not often have lives far removed from life in the movement, we meditate when and where we can when we so desire. If the desire to meditate is genuine, it comes naturally, effortlessly and time will be made as allowed by the greater expanse of the world under the Laws of Nature. Spiritual movements ebb and flow, they begin, evolve, and dissipate. None of them eventually stay true to their original purpose which is simply for the human mind to wake up to its actual nature as experience opposed to its intellectual musings which flow as constricted rivers of thought.

Yours sounds like speculation. Should need better control for results to publish. Evidently the best research would relate that just having 800 turning out once (spread around in 11 different locations in Fairfield-M.Vedic City) is not enough to have much positive national effect. We could have used you up here towards better results. People evidently are way too complacent around this, if they understand the consequence of meditating at all. If anything the low numbers meditating could indicate an inverse conclusion regardless of some personal opinion. Also, published Science Research for religious rites is not nearly so conclusive as for groups meditating. More research is needed. -JaiGuruYou ---In FairfieldLife@yahoogroups.com, <mdixon.6...@yahoo.com> wrote : Doug, there were yagyas done in India for Trump.
