Re: [FairfieldLife] Re: Post Count Fri 23-Jan-15 00:15:08 UTC
I suggested what I did because Doug (Buck) seems to have lost the ability to form short-term memories. He often can't even remember what exactly it is about a post he's replying to that made him angry enough to reply angrily, so he just trots out some old gripe from the past. This is to some extent consistent with dementia -- some long term memories remain unaffected, especially memories you've *told stories about* often, while newer short term memories don't stick. The thing is, as you and Salyavin have pointed out, Doug/Buck seems to bristle at us trying to find some physiological or psychological explanation for his behavior, and takes offense at it as if we're trying to insult him, but *there is another option he never tries*. And the fact that he never *does* try that option reinforces our theory that there might actually be something wrong with him. All he'd have to do to refute what we're suggesting is *have a normal conversation with someone here*, one that indicates that he actually read what the other party said and is responding to it. That's what's missing. His posts are non-sequiturs, in the most literal sense. They do not follow from what he claims to be reacting to. It's as if he's off in his own world, throwing out thoughts that go through his head and *in* his head seem to make sense. But they don't to other people. I see that over on The_Leak a few apologists for his behavior (mainly Ann) are trotting out the olde He's just putting everybody on and running a button-pushing Colbert number theory. I don't buy it, because in the last few *years* I don't remember him demonstrating the ability to actually *have* a real conversation that other people could follow with *anyone*, whether he considers them friend or foe. It's pretty much the same non-sequitur stuff, all the time. Bottom line for me is that I'm not convinced he *CAN* have a normal conversation. This is all Just My Opinion, of course, but it's my honest opinion. And the interesting thing is that Doug could easily prove me wrong, simply by doing what I suggest -- drop the Buck act for a dozen posts, during which he has a continuing, rational conversation with someone else here *or* on The_Leak. Prove me wrong, Buck. I don't think you can.

I notice Buck is now reposting older material. My mother's memory declined substantially as she got into her late 80s and early 90s. She stopped initiating conversations. I would test her memory of various things, she could name people in photos etc. and never forgot me, but she did sometimes forget my sister's name. I ran into a 92-year in the supermarket a couple of years ago and he was quite a talker, had a long story about unions and troubles he had with them wanting him to be in their membership when he was younger. Later, about 15 minutes later, we ran into each other again. He did seem recognize me but told me the same story once again. So I do not know what his situation was, but he was certainly more lively than people I have seen in the Alzheimer's wards of care facilities. As he was unaccompanied in the market I assume that he was fairly clear of serious problems. Even in myself, I notice long term memories from childhood are more stable than recent ones. Meditation also seems to have an effect of less memory. If experiences do indeed make less of an impression, I would presume memories of experiences would be less imprinted in the brain. That seems to be a different effect than just ageing. I watched the movie Tarantula recently (with an uncredited part for Clint Eastwood). This came out in 1955, and I recalled the scenes in the film quite well, but now, having meditated for such a long time, I sometimes will watch a Blu-ray or DVD of a much more recent film, and by about halfway through, it finally dawns on me I saw it before within the last ten years or less, and remembered practically nothing about it. This does not seem to be dementia, as I can write original material and hold conversations without much trouble in spite of my anti-social nature. I attribute this partially to the effects of TM. ---In FairfieldLife@yahoogroups.com, turquoiseb@... wrote : From: anartaxius@...

Must be the meditation. I've always felt like the guy at the end of Invasion of the Bodysnatchers, with everyone staring at me because I'm the only one left who knows the truth. Unlike him I get to write letters to the management of offending shops and companies. I always get a response too, mostly of the grovelling PR bullshit type we are sorry to hear you are unhappy with our pricing strategy but we don't price items per pack weight but by their description as foodstuffs etc. Other people really don't seem to notice, or care when I tell them. Maybe it's just me who thinks the world could be fairer and people shouldn't be so blatantly - if sneakily - ripped off?

The mayor of the Montreal suburb of Dorval, has refused, and the town clerk sent a note to all parents to explain why... ?Muslims must understand that they have to adapt to Canada and Quebec, its customs, its traditions, its way of life, because that's where they chose to immigrate. ?They must understand that they have to integrate and learn to live in Quebec. ?They must understand that it is for them to change their lifestyle, not the Canadians who so generously welcomed them. ?They must understand that Canadians are neither racist nor xenophobic, they accepted many immigrants before Muslims (Whereas the reverse is not true, in that Muslim states do not accept non-Muslim immigrants). ?That no more than other nations, Canadians are not willing to give up their identity, their culture. ?And if Canada is a land of welcome, it's not the Mayor of Dorval who welcomes foreigners, but the Canadian-Quebecois people as a whole. ?Finally, they must understand that in Canada (Quebec) with its Judeo-Christian roots, Christmas trees, churches and religious festivals, religion must remain in the private domain. The municipality of Dorval was right to refuse any concessions to Islam and Sharia. ?For Muslims who disagree with secularism and do not feel comfortable in Canada, there are 57 beautiful Muslim countries in the world, most of them under-populated and ready to receive them with open halal arms in accordance with Shariah. ?If you left your country for Canada, and not for other Muslim countries, it is because you have considered that life is better in Canada than elsewhere. ?Ask yourself the question, just once, ?Why is it better here in Canada than where you come from?? ?A canteen with pork is part of the answer.?

[FairfieldLife] Re: Maharishi on not judging TM by its results...
This is perfect. It's not about what happens, it is about how the mind perceives what happens. What happens is always what happens. That one and others are going to 'improve' as a result of meditation simply does not happen. There are just hidden changes in the manner in which one understands the world, because those changes are subjective, not objective. Because there must be some modification of the brain for this to happen, one might expect there to be some outward changes one could detect, but those may not in any way define how a person behaves. In other words, say, if a brain has higher coherence in measurement by EEG as a result of some kind of meditation, that may not influence how successful they are if the confluence of effects for success are not related to such coherence. Some meditators are very successful, and some very unsuccessful, and many non-meditating people are just the same, very successful and not successful. So saying meditation makes one more successful rings hollow. ---In FairfieldLife@yahoogroups.com, no_re...@yahoogroups.com wrote : The timely quote below just dropped into my inbox. It's an interesting idea that the results of TM can't be judged by the behaviour of meditators- sounds like a get out clause to me - but they then give a link to the claimed social effects. Surely if TM has no discernable effect on the individual's behaviour then the same thing scaled up via the alleged Maharishi Effect on brainwave coherence on the social scale means we similarly shouldn't be able to tell if society is behaving better with lots of people meditating. I certainly never have been able to tell, but the TMO does. What gives? Maybe their lack of good evidence is proof that it is working after all. MAHARISHI ON 'NOT JUDGING THE SUCCESS OF MEDITATION FROM THE BEHAVIOURS OF THE PEOPLE': ...Many people have been telling me 'Oh how can that man behave like that when he is meditating?' Remember, there are different levels of #consciousness https://www.facebook.com/hashtag/consciousness?source=feed_textstory_id=10202607552864877. Meditation is equally dear and equally forceful and equally useful to every level of consciousness. And for every behavior of a man there could be a thousand angles to see. You look at the flower from this side, it looks like that. You look at the same flower from the other side it looks like that.You look at it from above, it looks different. You look at it from below, it looks different. You can't charge the efficiency of meditation for a particular behavior of a meditator. He would have one particular angle in his mind, from that he goes ahead. You have a different angle of vision. You look at it from a different point of view. Do not judge the success of #meditation https://www.facebook.com/hashtag/meditation?source=feed_textstory_id=10202607552864877 from the behaviors of the people. Because there is no end to judging the behavior of others. Just judge your own sphere of life, how much harmony has spread around you, how much you are happier and how much you are peaceful and how much you are harmonious with others. - Maharishi Mahesh Yogi More info on the social benefits of TM: http://uk.tm.org/social-benefits http://uk.tm.org/social-benefits http://uk.tm.org/social-benefits http://uk.tm.org/social-benefits How transcendental meditation can have a calming effect on surrounding populations and can positively affect social change.

Re: [FairfieldLife] Re: TV series review: The Man In The High Castle
Glad you liked it. One of the things I like most about PKD is that his books -- although they are written in the 50s and 60s and are very much a product of the times he lived in -- *don't* feel dated. Almost all other science fiction I read that was originally written in that era does. From: s3raph...@yahoo.com [FairfieldLife] FairfieldLife@yahoogroups.com To: FairfieldLife@yahoogroups.com Sent: Tuesday, January 27, 2015 2:52 AM Subject: [FairfieldLife] Re: TV series review: The Man In The High Castle Re I'd recommend reading the book first.: I picked up a copy from my local library and have just finished it. And enjoyed - so thanks for the recommendation. There are books you read - even classics - that a month or so after shelving them you can't recollect a damned thing about what happened. There are other books that live with you and TMITHC is one of those. It's that ability to sneak into your imagination that does the trick. I particularly appreciated the way the Yanks had incorporated aspects of Japanese culture - mirroring the way the defeated Japs later became enthusiastic about American norms like baseball and cheeseburgers. I've read a few of Dick's novels before, along with some of his short stories, and the common theme is the gap between appearance and reality. But TMITHC is the mother lode. I've never come across a novel that mines that territory so relentlessly. The antiques are counterfeit; the characters are secret agents; the setting is an alternative history; the Man in the High Castle, lives in a normal house, etc, etc. Absolutely nothing is what it seems. So what's it about? At the end of the novel, Juliana Frink consults the I Ching, which tells her Japan and Germany did not win WWII. What are we make of that? Is the implication that in our real world the Allies did not win WWII! So is Dick saying that in reality the Japanese Imperial Navy won the Battle of Midway and not the Yanks? Hardly. Is he saying something hackneyed along the lines of Germany and Japan lost the war but won the peace, as people often claim? It's tricky, but I suggest his implication is that the headline events of our lives - who won or lost a world war, say - are merely superficial happenings whereas the underlying spiritual reality, as indicated by the I Ching, is where it's really at and where the important changes are decided. A bonus for me is that two of the characters in the novel discuss the meaning of Nathanael West's Miss Lonelyhearts. I'd already read his The Day of the Locust (a big influence on JG Ballard - if you've read him you'll see the link) but Dick's interest led me to borrow Lonelyhearts as well. Miss Lonelyhearts is actually a male newspaper columnist so you've got that appearance/reality theme once again. You might try reading the book from an advaita-vedanta perspective - I see that Nathanael West was himself interested in mysticism. Back to Dick: I noted from the introduction that he wrote TMITHC just before he developed his amphetamine habit. Speed is good for inducing strokes (which is how Dick eventually died). It's also excellent for instilling paranoia. Another Dick trait - and a useful trait if you're writing the kind of dystopian sci-fi Dick specialized in. One thing speed is not good for is improving your writing. I love Dick's plots but he was often let down by the quality of his prose, that is especially noticeable in his short stories. I see the pilot episode of TMITHC is now posted on YouTube so shall check it out there. Thanks. ---In FairfieldLife@yahoogroups.com, turquoiseb@... wrote : S3raphita, so far the TV show is deviating in minor ways from the novel, which means that it's gonna be its own thing rather than even *try* to be completely faithful to the original. It's PKD, so a lot of the appreciation is going to be found in the details of how he describes things, and thus I'd recommend reading the book first. Besides, so far we don't have any reasonable expectation of seeing more than four episodes of the TV version in a timely manner (or at all, if it's not picked up as an ongoing series by Amazon), so I think it's probably better to start with the source material. Just my opinion. As for using the I Ching as a writing helper, PKD definitely admitted to having done that, which I find fascinating. He'd get to a point in the writing (doing all of the writing sequentially, as was his wont) and get to a point where the action could go in any of number of different directions. At that point he'd cast a hexagram, interpret the results in the I Ching, and write it that way. So in a very real sense, another reason to start with the novel of The Man In The High Castle is that it may be the only book written by the I Ching. :-) PKD actually considered several of his books sequels to TMITHC (or at least they started that way, even though they didn't end up that way).

There's plenty of cheap oil right now. All the people in the world just don't want any terrorists in their land. If ISIS win the Middle East, they could easily take over the rest of the world through terrorism. At this time, it doesn't look like ISIS is making any friends in the world, even among the Muslims.

Oh really? Did these forces of nature work against Richard Nixon? Against

against Margaret Thatcher or any of the other jackasses who have sent
Scorpionland down the tubes? How bout Georgy Bush, (one and two). How about any

world and make GS one of the most powerful financial institutions on the

If the residents move out of town, the ISIS forces cannot use innocent
families as their human shields against the bombs. According the news today,
ISIS forces have left Kobane, Syria. The same scenario should soon happen in
the other cities that ISIS forces have taken over for the last six months.
They're obviously fierce fighters, but they can't win against bombs falling on
their heads. And, the coalition forces are more than happy to drop the bombs
if they continue to fight.

Let me guess. You scored a bottle of that I know what you're *really* thinking because I'm so psychic and you're not hooch that Judy and Jimbo used to drink before posting, right? :-) I mean, what I did was to state an opinion, present my reasons for holding that opinion, and then even propose a simple, effective way that Doug / Buck could prove me wrong if he disagrees with my opinion. What you did was declare something to be true for no other reason than because you believe it is. I'd lay off that Judy-Jimbo Jiva-Juice if I were you. It rots the brain.

He often can't even remember what exactly it is about a post he's replying to that made him angry enough to reply angrily, so he just trots out some old gripe from the past. This is to some extent consistent with dementia -- some long term memories remain unaffected, especially memories you've *told stories about* often, while newer short term memories don't stick. The thing is, as you and Salyavin have pointed out, Doug/Buck seems to bristle at us trying to find some physiological or psychological explanation for his behavior, and takes offense at it as if we're trying to insult him, but *there is another option he never tries*. And the fact that he never *does* try that option reinforces our theory that there might actually be something wrong with him. All he'd have to do to refute what we're suggesting is *have a normal conversation with someone here*, one that indicates that he actually read what the other party said and is responding to it. That's what's missing. His posts are non-sequiturs, in the most literal sense. They do not follow from what he claims to be reacting to. It's as if he's off in his own world, throwing out thoughts that go through his head and *in* his head seem to make sense. But they don't to other people. I see that over on The_Leak a few apologists for his behavior (mainly Ann) are trotting out the olde He's just putting everybody on and running a button-pushing Colbert number theory. I don't buy it, because in the last few *years* I don't remember him demonstrating the ability to actually *have* a real conversation that other people could follow with *anyone*, whether he considers them friend or foe. It's pretty much the same non-sequitur stuff, all the time. Bottom line for me is that I'm not convinced he *CAN* have a normal conversation. This is all Just My Opinion, of course, but it's my honest opinion. And the interesting thing is that Doug could easily prove me wrong, simply by doing what I suggest -- drop the Buck act for a dozen posts, during which he has a continuing, rational conversation with someone else here *or* on The_Leak.

I notice Buck is now reposting older material. My mother's memory declined substantially as she got into her late 80s and early 90s. She stopped initiating conversations. I would test her memory of various things, she could name people in photos etc. and never forgot me, but she did sometimes forget my sister's name. I ran into a 92-year in the supermarket a couple of years ago and he was quite a talker, had a long story about unions and troubles he had with them wanting him to be in their membership when he was younger. Later, about 15 minutes later, we ran into each other again. He did seem recognize me but told me the same story once again. So I do not know what his situation was, but he was certainly more lively than people I have seen in the Alzheimer's wards of care facilities. As he was unaccompanied in the market I assume that he was fairly clear of serious problems. Even in myself, I notice long term memories from childhood are more stable than recent ones. Meditation also seems to have an effect of less memory. If experiences do indeed make less of an impression, I would presume memories of experiences would be less imprinted in the brain. That seems to be a different effect than just ageing. I watched the movie Tarantula recently (with an uncredited part for Clint Eastwood). This came out in 1955, and I recalled the scenes in the film quite well, but now, having meditated for such a long time, I sometimes will watch a Blu-ray or DVD of a much more recent film, and

Xeno, The war against ISIS can be won or lost in the minds of the Sunni people. If the government of Iraq can persuade the Sunni tribal leaders to align with the Iraqi political process, ISIS will lose. It appears that these tribal leaders already know that the ISIS objective is a caliphate in the Middle East. If these leaders cannot gain politically or economically with ISIS, they will side with the present Iraqi central government. That's why it's necessary that the present regime in the Iraqi government is open to including the Sunnis in the political and economic process. In short, only the Iraqi people can solve their problems in their own way. This should include an inclusive government that represents all sectors of the population. Also, ISIS is basically a terrorist organization in the region and all of Muslims in the world perceive them as terrorists. As such, ISIS will lose its political clout. And they'll be dealt with as criminals in the Middle East and elsewhere in the world, including those who are Muslims. ---In FairfieldLife@yahoogroups.com, anartaxius@... wrote : I think you are wrong about this.

[FairfieldLife] Maharishi on not judging TM by its results...
The timely quote below just dropped into my inbox. It's an interesting idea that the results of TM can't be judged by the behaviour of meditators- sounds like a get out clause to me - but they then give a link to the claimed social effects. Surely if TM has no discernable effect on the individual's behaviour then the same thing scaled up via the alleged Maharishi Effect on brainwave coherence on the social scale means we similarly shouldn't be able to tell if society is behaving better with lots of people meditating. I certainly never have been able to tell, but the TMO does. What gives? Maybe their lack of good evidence is proof that it is working after all. MAHARISHI ON 'NOT JUDGING THE SUCCESS OF MEDITATION FROM THE BEHAVIOURS OF THE PEOPLE': ...Many people have been telling me 'Oh how can that man behave like that when he is meditating?' Remember, there are different levels of #consciousness https://www.facebook.com/hashtag/consciousness?source=feed_textstory_id=10202607552864877. Meditation is equally dear and equally forceful and equally useful to every level of consciousness. And for every behavior of a man there could be a thousand angles to see. You look at the flower from this side, it looks like that. You look at the same flower from the other side it looks like that.You look at it from above, it looks different. You look at it from below, it looks different. You can't charge the efficiency of meditation for a particular behavior of a meditator. He would have one particular angle in his mind, from that he goes ahead. You have a different angle of vision. You look at it from a different point of view. Do not judge the success of #meditation https://www.facebook.com/hashtag/meditation?source=feed_textstory_id=10202607552864877 from the behaviors of the people. Because there is no end to judging the behavior of others. Just judge your own sphere of life, how much harmony has spread around you, how much you are happier and how much you are peaceful and how much you are harmonious with others. - Maharishi Mahesh Yogi More info on the social benefits of TM: http://uk.tm.org/social-benefits http://uk.tm.org/social-benefits http://uk.tm.org/social-benefits http://uk.tm.org/social-benefits How transcendental meditation can have a calming effect on surrounding populations and can positively affect social change.

[FairfieldLife] Re: Biizzards and Astrology
Yes, 75 percent would be good, but Jyotish basically scores worse than chance guessing. So if you want to find out about the future, you should do the opposite of what it says. The US National Weather Service super computer also did not do so well on the current storm prediction. I am in the middle of. The first predictions were for 31 inches of snow. We got about 10 inches. A check of major power companies in New Jersey, New York, and Connecticut showed less than 30 power outages at each. When the tropical storm Sandy hit these areas two years ago, there were massive outages in every city in that storm's path. The caution taken this time, suspending travel etc., helped a lot because it enabled clearing the roads much more efficiently than if cars were stranded everywhere. Massachusetts got more of the heart of the storm, but even there it has been less than predicted. There is less snow on the trees where I live than there was from a much smaller storm last week. It is true life on Earth is interconnected. But it does not follow from that you can predict events based on the movement of the planets because they are 1) they are not on Earth, and 2) you have not specified what the connexions the planets have with Earth, you have not specified the mechanism by which they can influence Earth. You cannot just say there is such and such effects without detailing how those effects work. This is not done in astrology, which is why it is a pseudo-science. ---In FairfieldLife@yahoogroups.com, jr_esq@... wrote : Xeno, In jyotish, if your accuracy is about 75 percent, you're doing good work.

So far here only a couple of inches, but the main part of the storm is now about to come down. I don't like ISIS, but I do like black, a nice colour. It represents the least excited state of light, the lowest energy state. These emotive associations with colour are just programs in the mind. Different cultures use colour to represent widely different things. In some Eastern cultures black represents prosperity, wealth, and even health. Zen monks wear black robes. In India it can represent evil. In Japan, mystery. In Africa, age and wisdom. These associations are somewhat arbitrary. Saturn, the planet, is kind of a pale yellow. Because the stars are not fixed but drift among each other in space, their positions from any viewpoint change dramatically over longer periods of time, so associations with events made on their positions in astrology are simply imaginary. They do have some slight gravitational effects, but far less than the computer screen in front of you because of their great distance (except for the Sun). ---In FairfieldLife@yahoogroups.com, jr_esq@... wrote : Xeno, The conjunction of the transiting Rahu (signifying extreme conditions) with the natal position of Saturn (old man winter or cold) in Virgo of the US national chart is causing the frigid temperature in the US.

I think you are wrong about this. Here are links to two papers by Metin Gurcan, who is an academic at Bilkent University in Ankara, Turkey. He is a Turkish military analyst, and he outlines in the two papers I linked to below his breakdown of the ISIS military strategy. The view you are presenting is naïve and superficial. The Kurds ousted most of ISIS in ground fighting from Kobani, with backing of US bomb strikes, but it was basically four months of building to building fighting, basically using many of ISIS's own fighting tactics to force them out.

Re: [FairfieldLife] Maharishi on not judging TM by its results...
What a bullshitter the Old Fraud was.
The problem with what he is saying, especially as it relates to TM specifically
is that when the meditator, TM teacher and especially the Old Fraud that
started it all look at their own behavior they see nothing wrong when they are
looking through that state of dissociation that TM'ers regale as witnessing
they can be sexual predators, financial frauds, frauds on a grand scale
(selling ineffective group practices and equally ineffective yagyas) and they
can see how happy they are by all the sex and money they are hoodwinking others
into giving them.Thus they can say meditation is effective for them. The more I

Subject: [FairfieldLife] Maharishi on not judging TM by its results...
The timely quote below just dropped into my inbox. It's an interesting idea
that the results of TM can't be judged by the behaviour of meditators- sounds
like a get out clause to me - but they then give a link to the claimed social
effects. Surely if TM has no discernable effect on the individual's behaviour
then the same thing scaled up via the alleged Maharishi Effect on brainwave
coherence on the social scale means we similarly shouldn't be able to tell if
society is behaving better with lots of people meditating.I certainly never
have been able to tell, but the TMO does. What gives? Maybe their lack of good
evidence is proof that it is working after all.
MAHARISHI ON 'NOT JUDGING THE SUCCESS OF MEDITATION FROM THE BEHAVIOURS OF THE
PEOPLE':...Many people have been telling me 'Oh how can that man behave like
that when he is meditating?' Remember, there are different levels of
#consciousness. Meditation is equally dear and equally forceful and equally
useful to every level of consciousness. And for every behavior of a man there
could be a thousand angles to see.You look at the flower from this side, it
looks like that. You look at
the same flower from the other side it looks like that.You look at it from
above, it looks different. You look at it from below, it looks
different. You can't charge the efficiency of meditation for a
particular behavior of a meditator. He would have one particular angle in his
mind, from that he goes ahead. You have a different angle of vision. You look
at it from a different point of view.Do not judge the success of #meditation
from the behaviors of the
people. Because there is no end to judging the behavior of others.
Just judge your own sphere of life, how much harmony has spread around you, how
much you are happier and how much you are peaceful and how much you are
harmonious with others. - Maharishi Mahesh YogiMore info on the social

Re: [FairfieldLife] Re: Post Count Fri 23-Jan-15 00:15:08 UTC
Not bad Buck. I we were terrorists, you would no longer exist because we know where you live. By the way an ad hominem argument would be that whatever reasoning a person uses would be declared wrong because that person has such and such a characteristic. Ad hominem is not a slur, it might make use of slurs to try to falsely invalidate a logical argument. I have always been curious why you express yourself the way you do, because it is kind of unusual in the circles I travel in. Now, Ann, on The Peak said to me you had had a stroke at one time. Is that correct? That might influence behaviour and thinking but you could also completely recover from a stroke. Anyway, I just saw on the Peak that you did respond to me in a fairly reasonable way, so my medical speculations are probably wrong. But it would be nice if you engaged in a conversation once in a while, just be aware that religion and spirituality are not protected, special subjects here about which one may not say certain things. On the Peak though, it might get someone canned. Now, calling some of us terrorists is not ad hominem, because you have not tried to negate a logical argument, but it is characterising some here in the same way you are saying we characterise you. That is known as hypocrisy, the practice of claiming to have moral standards or beliefs to which one's own behaviour does not conform; pretence, that is doing exactly what your opposition does. Note that I make no claim to moral superiority, or even morals. Being has no morals, it is undefined and universal, is simply existence. Thanks for responding for once. You did not respond to Barry, but complained to Rick. You could have simply said what you did below prefaced with 'Barry, I think you are trying the old abusive stump of using mental deficiency' I would think a farmer would meet a problem head on instead of by evasion. You certainly could not run a farm using the technique you use here on FFL. Why not be direct?

What's that supposed to mean? I have talked to Bucky like a human being many a time - although last time I asked him how the farming was going, he reviled me to a fair-thee-well just for asking. The whole deal about the way Buck posts is very simple - Buck is caught up in a state of object referral where he seems to identify himself and his very being with the object of TM, TM being a superlative practice, TMSP being even better, TMSP in groups being the sovereign remedy for all the worlds ills, and the magnanimous giver of all things TM, Marshy, is a great and exalted master. As long as other folks' post vibrate to the above fantasy, Buck feels his entire being is very existence is confirmed as real and as being true and good. Any posts to the contrary, were he to look at them and think about them seriously would force him to question the very foundation of his self image, which he don't wanna do. So he replies with revilement or crazy coot bible verses made TM-ish or exhortations to be One in the Dome. It is speculation on my part but were Doug to be suffering from stroke related problems, I doubt he could plow a field or tend to a flock of sheep, even in the winter time, so I don't think that is the case. I hear tell he is a mighty farmer, a crazy for TM farmer, but a mighty farmer nonetheless.

I have always been curious why you express yourself the way you do, because it is kind of unusual in the circles I travel in. Now, Ann, on The Peak said to me you had had a stroke at one time. Is that correct? That might influence behaviour and thinking but you could also completely recover from a stroke. Anyway, I just saw on the Peak that you did respond to me in a fairly reasonable way, so my medical speculations are probably wrong. But it would be nice if you engaged in a conversation once in a while, just be aware that religion and spirituality are not protected, special subjects here about which one may not say certain things. On the Peak though, it might get someone canned. Now, calling some of us terrorists is not ad hominem, because you have not tried to negate a logical argument, but it is characterising some here in the same way you are saying we characterise you. That is known as hypocrisy, the practice of claiming to have moral standards or beliefs to which one's own behaviour does not conform; pretence, that is doing exactly what your opposition does. Note that I make no claim to moral superiority, or even morals. Being has no morals, it is undefined and universal, is simply existence. Thanks for responding for once. You did not respond to Barry, but complained to Rick. You could have simply said what you did below prefaced with 'Barry, I think you are trying the old abusive stump of using mental deficiency' I would think a farmer would meet a problem head on instead of by evasion. You certainly could not run a farm using the technique you use here on FFL. Why not be direct?

Re: [FairfieldLife] Maharishi on not judging TM by its results...
You are a funny kid, Michael. Applying the laws of physics, you must be ready to adore him, because you've been despising him from day one, and now we learn that you despise him even more. I mean, pretty much every day, you're despising him, even more. So, I'm guessing you are either going to self immolate in this ongoing despising, or maybe it'll go round the bend and turn into some kind of adoration. Somethings gotta give dude.

The timely quote below just dropped into my inbox. It's an interesting idea that the results of TM can't be judged by the behaviour of meditators- sounds like a get out clause to me - but they then give a link to the claimed social effects. Surely if TM has no discernable effect on the individual's behaviour then the same thing scaled up via the alleged Maharishi Effect on brainwave coherence on the social scale means we similarly shouldn't be able to tell if society is behaving better with lots of people meditating. I certainly never have been able to tell, but the TMO does. What gives? Maybe their lack of good evidence is proof that it is working after all. MAHARISHI ON 'NOT JUDGING THE SUCCESS OF MEDITATION FROM THE BEHAVIOURS OF THE PEOPLE': ...Many people have been telling me 'Oh how can that man behave like that when he is meditating?' Remember, there are different levels of #consciousness https://www.facebook.com/hashtag/consciousness?source=feed_textstory_id=10202607552864877. Meditation is equally dear and equally forceful and equally useful to every level of consciousness. And for every behavior of a man there could be a thousand angles to see. You look at the flower from this side, it looks like that. You look at the same flower from the other side it looks like that.You look at it from above, it looks different. You look at it from below, it looks different. You can't charge the efficiency of meditation for a particular behavior of a meditator. He would have one particular angle in his mind, from that he goes ahead. You have a different angle of vision. You look at it from a different point of view. Do not judge the success of #meditation https://www.facebook.com/hashtag/meditation?source=feed_textstory_id=10202607552864877 from the behaviors of the people. Because there is no end to judging the behavior of others. Just judge your own sphere of life, how much harmony has spread around you, how much you are happier and how much you are peaceful and how much you are harmonious with others. - Maharishi Mahesh Yogi More info on the social benefits of TM: http://uk.tm.org/social-benefits http://uk.tm.org/social-benefits http://uk.tm.org/social-benefits http://uk.tm.org/social-benefits How transcendental meditation can have a calming effect on surrounding populations and can positively affect social change.

Re: [FairfieldLife] Re: Is it Possible for ISIS to Survive the Bombs?
Some would say Gerald Ford's quick pardon of Nixon after he took office was
support of nature not nature punishing, the Bush family are wealthy as hell
and still politically powerful, Mugabe has done pretty much as he pleased -
there is no vedic anything that is punishing these people. You are a nutter.
You didn't address the Goldman Sachs example. And by the way, your affinity for
