"Establishing in the mind the  goal", that was your best line!   Nope. Deadly serious. As a Unitarian minister once commented  about MMY's loose use of language about Yogic Flying in his  world-wide publicity stunts and ads and so on: "he's  trying to change the global paradigm." People can't fly not just because of their own state of  conscioiusness and expectations, but because of the  consciousness and expectations of the entire world, or  such appears to be MMY's belief: The Laws of Nature [devas] active in the world are very  stupid and need to be woken up. In other words, if the technique I sell for thousands of dollars fails to work as described, it's not my fault, it's your fault and the world's fault. The Dali Lama sent Herbert Benson to Nepal, I think it was, to do research on Buddhists  practicing levitation. He found people able to do remarkable physical feats, but no-one  floating. One of the test subjects indicated that his grandfather had been much better at  the practice than he was. Are you claiiming that the Dali Lama didn't send Benson to look  at the best practitioners that he was aware of? IIRC the authorization was only for novices. For more advanced practitioners it would violate their vows. Those with the proper initations into inner tantra can receive permission to observe some of the more accessible "floaters" for inspiration in their own practice. __._,_.___ To subscribe, send a message to: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Or go to: http://groups.yahoo.com/group/FairfieldLife/ and click 'Join This Group!'
