Peter, you weren’t claiming a subjective opinion. You were claiming to KNOW it due to your 50 years of meditation. Even now you’re capitalizing Truth as if your view of the NY Times is absolute because of your years of meditation. Well I’ve been meditating 52 years and have never missed one. Does that make my view more valid? Theresa’s got us both beat by about 10 years. If the number of years spent meditating is an indicator of infallibility, then we should both defer to her. Here’s an objective media bias chart: https://www.adfontesmedia.com/interactive-media-bias-chart-2/. The New York Times scores way better than Fox News, if that’s what you’re alluding to.

I fail to see the invective in what I said. The degrees are not impressive to me. You included them in your initial message. What was the purpose in that addition? Impress me, intimidate me? I have a B.A. and I could care less about it. I didn't include it in my message because it doesn't matter. Today's Universities are hardly the Academy of Plato, and M.A., Phd degrees,etc. do not confirm that one really knows anything, do they? At best, some relative, evanescent information. As I mentioned before, true learning comes from within; not from living in an academic environment or reading books and studying incessantly. MMY said that many times! Yes, compassion is important, but misplaced compassion is foolishness and enabling. You are so full of love to wish me a karmic debt. Thank you for your kindness! I certainly didn't wish such a thing upon you and I still do not. Is that a karmic debt for you? I suspect that I hurt your feelings in my initial response. For that I do apologize! I thought that your support of a journalistic failure such as the NYTimes was mind numbing. If you do not like that comment it is hardly invective. It is my opinion on that journalistic device. Other publications do a much better job than the Times. Perhaps you should look elsewhere for information. Whatever I have come to gain from my meditation I gain from the Personal God, in the purusha, and Maheshji was His agent and I honor Him best by practicing unfailingly his meditation method as I have done for 50 years.

He trained me in journalism; obviously you lack his training. Consciousness based is compassion based. Light of life nourishes, you need to learn how to do that. Yes, poison is effective, but you will need to be reborn to pay off the karmic debt you are encurring by spreading invective. Avert your danger.

Meaningless really! The only real knowing comes from within and not from academic training. If you think the New York Times is a reputable news source I am helpless in assisting you to understand how wrong you are! Half the country would disagree with you, at least. The quality of my discerning mind qualifies me to know Truth and falsehood when I see it. Isn't that the point of our meditation, to really SEE, and know the difference? That is the result of my dedication, discipline and devotion to the Ishtadeva! I state this not to gloat but simply to state a fact. That is precisely why I have meditated all these years; to acquire this intuitive faculty of mind, so I could KNOW!

When my husband and I go to Iowa City these days, I can sense sickness in the air. Before it was not so bad. I think there is only one case so far. I read what Peter wrote you. I do not think he is qualified to comment on the quality of journalism. NY Times is excellent and engaging and investigative. The paper has the reputation for ferreting out the truth that remains hidden underneath. Right now the country needs truth, not conspiracy theories. Please continue to share such stories with the community. You are a valued source of accurate information. Sincerely Theresa Olson, ma, ms, mdci, PhD.
