[FairfieldLife] 'Tommy Chong- Stoned on Meditation New Book: The I Chong'
Tommy ChongThe worlds funniest stoner on meditation, surviving prison, and his new book, The I Chong Illustration by Nathan Otaor Tommy Chong to get straight, hes got to go to God. Not God as envisioned by, say, Jerry Falwell, not the God of hellfire, but the omniscient source of goodness and, yes, jokes. Hes cultivated a meditative practice over the years of smash hit movies, Grammy-winning comedy albums, and woozy influence over decades of pop culture as half of the comedy duo Cheech Chong. So when he was busted in 2003 for selling Tommy Chong bongs and sentenced to nine months in the federal penitentiary at Taft, California, one of the items he brought with him was the I Ching, the ancient Chinese Book of Changes. While in prison, he started ruminating on lifes lessons, and the result was his new book, The I Chong: Meditations from the Joint. This book is a breezy vision of the mans essential Chongness, as he writes not some preachy life lessons but about a life lived: growing up rough as the mixed-race child of a Chinese father and a Scottish-Irish mother in Western Canada; learning to tango with his wife, Shelby; and using his gentleness and wit to thrive in lock-up. I met the warden one day. I swear to God, Ive met fans but he was one of the biggest fans ever, says Chong. He says, Are they treating you OK? He turned out to be a really sweet guy. Dean KuipersCityBeat: Each chapter leaf in the book starts with a hexagram from the I Ching. Tommy Chong: I went through the I Ching and just picked out a heading that would best suit the chapter. And the I Ching I was just doing it its three lines on top, three lines below. And theyre either broken or straight. And its based on an ancient book called the Book of Changes. You throw them they used to do it with bones, but then they evolved it to coins, and they used to do it with yarrow stalks [a common, long-stemmed white flower]. What you get is a good sense of how youre feeling, where youre at in your life. How is this a book of meditations? Im a writer, I just write all the time. I hadnt planned it to be a book, I just have a compulsion. I tried to write a Cheech Chong book, and Ive been working on it for five years, and I just cant get it going. But this new book was so personal that, when I started writing it, I realized: no one knows who I am. So I started writing about who I am, and I picked out memories from my past and then I realized, damn, Im almost 70 years old, so Ive got a lot of memories. And those are meditative? Well, Im into meditation. Actually, Cheech turned me on to meditation. When I first met Cheech, he followed that guru from India [Maharishi Mahesh Yogi]. Every once in a while Id go over to meet with Cheech, and hed be meditating. It wasnt til years and years later that I read a book by Joel Goldsmith, The Mystical I, and he went into the depth of meditating with your mind on God. And so when I went into prison, I thought: well, this is the best place in the world to put meditation to work. What was your meditative practice in prison? I ended up being the go-to guy with the I Ching. You have a lot of time in jail, so I read about how they did it with the yarrow stalks, and yarrow stalks were growing in the Indian garden at the prison. I did I Ching readings for the prisoners and it would blow peoples minds. I was in a recreation room and I was throwing coins and doing mine and this guy, Mike, came up to me and he asked, What are you up to, Chong? And I told him, and I said, Do you want me to do your reading? And he said Sure. So I had him throw the coins, and when he read his reading, it blew his mind so bad he just handed me the book and he stayed the rest of the day on his bunk. I read his thing and it said that he had just suffered a terrible accident. And he had, like, a couple of months before, his wife and child were killed in a car accident coming up to see him. The book nailed it. And same with me, my first reading was, Youre in jail for a reason. Were you there for a reason?P Yeah, absolutely. It was to reconnect with my spiritual self, with my job. The problem with me is that Ive got this incredible ego, but I know that I was meant to do what Ive been doing. From my earliest childhood, I knew I had something unfinished on this planet to do. And I got too comfortable in my life doing comedy, having a good time, collecting checks. And jail was like a little nudge, saying, Cmon, lets get back to work. You went to prison for selling bongs, right? The official charge was conspiring to sell drug paraphernalia over state lines. Supposedly, it was part of a nationwide sting, but everybody they busted is either back in business or going back in business. In the book you say that this is payback for all the movies, for laughing at cops, for Sergeant Stadanko. Yup. The Bush administration, Karl Rove, they just figure out

[FairfieldLife] 'Terrorists Like To Cause Mass Casualities'
'Terrorists Like To Cause Mass Causalities' It seems that the more people they kill, the terrorist philosophy; Is to inflict the most death, possible... So, naturally that weapon of mass death, would have to be the H-bomb. We, here in the US have lots of H-bombs, and all means of delivery. There is no challenger to match our bombing capability. But we don't like to create mass causalities. That is not our 'Christian Way' of conducting war. We call that 'collateral damage. Much 'collateral damage' is taking place in Lebanon right now. It is a waste; it is not the best way to resolve a conflict, as we can see. Except when we were faced with a suicidal enemy in Japan. But since then, these weapons have only been used as deterrents. Now, though, there they are; and the terrorists are dieing to get their hands on them. And they will use them once they have them. What do we do? That is the question, of our time... R.G. Seattle,WA.

[FairfieldLife] ShivaMa's Second Letter My Dome Rejection to Hagelin's Office
markmeredith2002 wrote Jeannie's mistake was emailing her letter to Hagelin. If she wanted any chance of a positive response she should have hand delivered it There is some truth to that. A hard copy to Vlodrop would probably have gotten it closer to the heart of the problem. Anyone got a mailing address for MMY in Vlodrop? -Doug in FF 2nd Letter To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Dear John, I am writing to you again just in case you have not had a chance to read my first letter, dated August 2, 2006, regarding my dome rejection. I WOULD LIKE TO BE ACCEPTED FOR THE DOME!!! I honestly expressed My Highest Truth in that letter and I would truly appreciate a response, any response, especially whether you received it or not, and what Maharishi wants me to do. PLEASE READ MY FIRST LETTER TO MAHARISHI. I know most people working for Maharishi may be afraid to let him know what some of his governors have done to get in the dome, but I know you have INTEGRITY and will tell him the truth. Those governors who do not know Maharishi's intentions about them visiting other saints or using other self improvement techniques, should be told by Maharishi on the daily phone calls to the course, what he really expects, regarding this very important issue Just because they were not asked if they do other things, many governors have justified that it's o.k with Maharishi, and that they would not be in the dome unless he wanted them there. They feel those who are not there, somehow could be, if THEY REALLY WANTED IT. Everyone has to start being accountable for their actions, including the MOVEMENT REPRESENTASTIVES! I feel that THE RULES OF DOME ACCEPTANCE SHOULD APPY TO EVERYONE! A few should not be rejected if the many are doing the same things Everyone should be asked the same questions... whether they visit the saints! Not just those who are on some administrative black list. This is just common sense. This is also how many people, that I have talked to, feel avout it. Someone actually said to me the other night: Why do want to spoil it for the rest of us? Why didn't you just keep quiet. So many people visit saints in India or other cities around the U.S. and the world. I guess they feel that if they don't do it in Fairfield then it's o.k. No one will catch me, seems to be the theme. PLEASE DO NOT GET ME WRONG I do not feel that visiting the saints is in ANY WAY WRONG... To the contrary it is A GREAT GIFT to those who have the grace to receive it. I feel anyone who wishes to visit the saints should be encouraged to do so. As it is stated in the VEDAS KEEP THE COMPANY OF THE SAINTS. A lot of people over the years have felt THE MOVEMENT REPRESENTATIVES have lied to them. They somehoe feel that Maharishi doesn't say the things they hear from course officials. MAHARISHI PLEASE ADDRESS THIS POINT!! EVERYONE NEEDS TO HEAR IT FROM YOU WHAT YOU REALLY EXPECT! My first letter to you has somehow made it on the internet on the Fairfield Life site. I hope in some way this is helpful to others who have also not compromised their integrity, just to get their Dome Badge. John, I would like to be accepted for the dome, having told the TRUTH about my life. I could have very easily lied when I was questioned but I chose to be completely HONEST and NOT HIDE ANYTHING ABOUT MY SPIRITUAL LIFE. Please respond to me, Shiva Ma First Letter from ShivaMa: FWD:From Shiva Ma Ryan, My Dome Rejection Please share this letter I wrote to John Hagelin with anyone you think may benefit from it. All Love, Shiva Ma My Dome rejection Shiva Ma Ryan to John Hagelin Aug 2 (5 days ago) Dear John, I was told to e-mail you if I had any trouble getting accepted at the dome. Hence this letter to you, because I have been faced with one of the most difficult choices of my life. John will you PLEASE share this letter with Maharishi, as I want Him to know THE REAL TRUTH about what has happened in Fairfield. Please read everything I have written in this e-mail John, I have tried to be as honest and as TRUTHFUL as I can. I also have suggestions at the end of this e-mail, that may benefit EVERYONE! When I applied for the course, I was told I would need more time to be processed. I knew I probably would not get an immediate acceptance, because a few years ago I applied and was asked if I practiced any techniques other than Maharishi's. I went to India with a GREAT saint from Asam, India, Shree Maa, in 1999, and I told the man questioning me I had experienced EVERYTHING that India had to offer, and that what I learned in private, I kept private. I had asked the question to over 600 people that I initiated, back in the seventies: Everything we learn in private, we keep private. Do you agree? This

And the other day I came across something--can't remember where--about some other occasion in India where someone received their weight in gold for something or other. I got the distinct impression from the way it was described that it's a traditional way of honoring someone in India. If that's the case, then it wasn't a stunt that MMY dreamed up out of nowhere; and it may have been designed to appeal to Indians specifically.

There are probably easily 500 or 800 people in the domes just like ShivaMa who have just seen the saints too. There certainly are a lot of TM meditators running below the TMorg `religious/spiritual practice/saints' administrative inquisition radar to have registered gotten in there. I have talked around with people these recent days also who were saying they had tried going back to the dome programs these past weeks and were remarking that the feeling of fear w/ people hiding there was so too thick that they were not going to go there because of that anymore. The fear and sadness that it is not more open gone the way it has does color what is left there. Evidently there is a bad group-effect the TMOrg have created there unwittingly on the subtle. It is pretty sad for the hope that it could have been. It has been a large disheartenment and dwindle for a long time and that feeling is deep in the practice of the dome community.. it is a bad perpetuation given the hope that it was once. -Doug in FF --- In FairfieldLife@yahoogroups.com, dhamiltony2k5 [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: The majority of people who got their dome badges were not asked the incredibly difficult questions I was asked, so they did not have to lie face to face to someone, Doug writing: Would the dome attendence numbers collapse, by half if people were also generally required to sign foreswearing the declarations that they are holding ShivaMa to as below?

Dear Jeanne,I think that, if your e-mail is for dr. Hagelin, then you should send an e-mail to him, and not to Fairfield Life group. Otherwise, it is not a letter, but an open letter, and that is a big difference. So, something is not clear in the way you send your e-mail, and now you send also a second e-mail in the same unclear way. I would suggest to you that, if you really want just to send e-mail to dr. Hagelin, with no other intentions, you just simply send an e-mail to him, and not to whole group. That would be much more clear, honest, better and more nice.

Hence this letter to you, because I have been faced with one ofthe most difficult choices of my life. John will you PLEASE share thisletter with Maharishi, as I want Him to know "THE REAL TRUTH" aboutwhat has happened in Fairfield. Please read everything I have writtenin this e-mail John, I have tried to be as honest and as "TRUTHFUL" asI can. I also have suggestions at the end of this e-mail, that maybenefit EVERYONE!When I applied for the course, I was told I would need more time to beprocessed. I knew I probably would not get an immediate acceptance,because a few years ago I applied and was asked if I practiced anytechniques other than Maharishi's. I went to India with a GREAT saintfrom Asam, India, Shree Maa, in 1999, and I told the man questioningme "I had experienced EVERYTHING that India had to offer, and thatwhat I learned in private, I kept private. I had asked the question toover 600 people that I initiated, back in the seventies: "Everythingwe learn in private, we keep private. Do you agree?" This answerseemed the most truthful and appropriate to me, yet I was notaccepted then for the dome.This past Saturday July 29th, I was encouraged by my sister andbrother-in law and several friends at a birthday party, that I shouldapply now for the dome, because they were accepting EVERYONE!Regardless of past associations with saints or other techniques, I wastold EVERYONE was WELCOME BACK!!! The words "All sins would beforgiven" were used. Those words deeply pinched my heart. I have neverconsidered spending time with Fully Awakened Divine Beings a sin. Ihave been incredibly fortunate to travel with many saints over thelast twelve years. Each ONE I always experienced as MAHARISHI. EachONE, that I was BLESSED by, deepened my INCREDIBLE LOVE, RESPECT andETERNAL GRATITUDE to Maharishi for all that He had given me in thepast. Maharishi was my FIRST GURU!!! Yet Maharishi becameinaccessible to me. The last time I saw Him was at The 7000 Course in1983. My heart was longing for him, So I felt that one by one Hestarted sending different saints to BLESS ME!!! Over the years, Ihave received the GRACE and BLESSINGS from over 15 different saintsthat have visited Fairfield since 1997. In 1994 my first GREATBLESSING was from MOTHER MEERA, in Germany. She changed my lifeforever... I have had the GREAT fortune of traveling with many ofthese DIVINE BEINGS. I am so GRATEFUL for the Love and Grace I havebeen given from these PURE DIVINE MANIFESTATIONS of Gods andGoddess's.I want to offer my HUMBLEST GRATITUDE to Maharishi for alwaysremaining in my HEART of HEARTS, since November 19, 1971. I will be inHIS ETERNAL DEBT for the GRACE HE SHOWERED upon me over and over againthroughout all these years. JAI GURU DEV MAHARISHI! I LOVE YOU SOMUCH.At the course office, Jeff Cohen was so sweet and kind to me on thephone, going over the guidelines for acceptance for the course.However the words he used when telling me what I needed to do, to getmy badge, still penetrate me like millions of daggers in my HEART. Ihave not been able to shake them. {Please ask Maharishi to help mewith this.} He said I would be able to get my badge if: "I SEVEREDany connection I had with any saints and SEVERED the use of anytechniques that they had taught me, and that I would NEVER establish aconnection with them again or practice any other techniques other thanMaharishi's, EVER AGAIN.

Central Daylight Time, [EMAIL PROTECTED] writes: Who are all these Jewish neocons, besides wolfowitz?**There are many Jewish intellectuals, most famously Noam Chomsky, who are opposed to U.S. support for Israel, but it is clear that the Bush administration is heavily influenced by radical Zionists:"Richard Perle, chairman of Bush's quasi-official Defense Policy Board, co-authored a 1996 paper with Douglas J. Eeith for the Likud Prime Minister Binyamin Netanyahu. Entitled "A Clean Break: A New Strategy for Securing the Realm," it advised Netanyahu to make "a clean break from the peace process." Feith now holds one of the most important positions in the Pentagon-deputy-under-secretary of defense for policy. He argued in the National Interest in Fall 1993 that the League of Nations mandate granted Jews irrevocable settlement rights in the West Bank. In 1997, in "A Strategy for Israel," Feith called on Israel to re-occupy "the areas under Palestinian Authority control" even though "the price in blood would be high." On Oct. 13, 1997, Feith and his father were given awards by the right-wing Zionist Organization of America, which described the honorees as "the noted Jewish philanthropists and pro-Israel activists."The radical Zionist right to which Perle and Feith belong is small in number but it has become a significant force in Republican policymaking circles. It is a recent phenomenon, dating back to the late 1970s and 1980s, when many formerly Democratic Jewish intellectuals joined the broad Reagan coalition. While many of these hawks speak in public about global crusades for democracy, the chief concern of many such "neo-conservatives" is the power and reputation of Israel. William Kristol, editor of the right-wing Weekly Standard, explained the reason for the rhetoric about global democracy to the Jerusalem Post (July 27, 2000): "I've always thought it was best for Israel for the U.S. to be generally engaged and generally strong, and then the commitment to Israel follows from a general foreign policy."The liberalism and Democratic partisanship of most Jewish Americans forces the Zionist right to find its popular constituency, not in the Jewish community itself, but in the Protestant evangelical right of Pat Robertson and others many of whose members share the Christian Zionism of the early British patrons of Israel. In 1995, after I exposed the anti-Semitic sources of Pat Robertson's theories about a two-century-old Judaeo-Masonic conspiracy in an essay in The New York Review of Books, Norman Podhoretz, the editor of Commentary, denounced me rather than Robertson. Podhoretz conceded that Robertson's statements about Jewish conspiracies were anti-Semitic but argued that, in the light of Robertson's support for Israel, he should be excused according to the ancient rabbinical rule of batel b'shishim.http://www.thirdworldtraveler.com/Israel/Israel_Lobby_US.html H, so we have Paul Wolfowitz and Richard Perle control American policy with Israel. __._,_.___ To subscribe, send a message to: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Or go to: http://groups.yahoo.com/group/FairfieldLife/ and click 'Join This Group!'

In a message dated 8/10/06 5:31:04 A.M. Central Daylight Time, [EMAIL PROTECTED] writes: There is no challenger to match our bombing capability. But we don't like to create mass causalities. That is not our 'Christian Way' of conducting war. We call that 'collateral damage. Much 'collateral damage' is taking place in Lebanon right now. It is a waste; it is not the best way to resolve a conflict, as we can see. Except when we were faced with a suicidal enemy in Japan. But since then, these weapons have only been used as deterrents. Now, though, there they are; and the terrorists are dieing to get their hands on them. And they will use them once they have them. What do we do? That is the question, of our time... Robert, there is no"Christian way" of conducting war. But there have been politically correct ways to conduct war developed in the later half of the 20th century. 1. The underdog is always a "freedom fighter" and his means of war, while they may be unconventional, must be accepted and tolerated. 2. The more powerful party is always seen as the aggressor or bad guy and must never exceed the force used against him and at the same time must observe to the letter, all civilized rules of war and woe be it if a civilian gets in the way and gets hurt. 3. For the two warring parties, the more powerful must fight with one hand tied behind his back so as not to take advantage of the freedom fighter because that wouldn't be fair. As long as the freedom fighter is only capable of being a dangerous nuisance, the more powerful party must accept that and not completely defeat his opponent, but give him plenty of opportunity to live to fight another day so eventually there will be a redistribution of power. Defeating ones enemy, especially if they are freedom fightermight lower thereself esteem. As for collateral damage in Lebanon, yes it is very unfortunate any innocent person dies,gets injured or loses property but Israelis would much rather spend their ordinance on the enemy that actually are causing them problems and its a shame if Hezbollah chooses to hide among civilians. However, Hezbollah chooses to attack, deliberately, civilian targets in Israel just as a suicide bomber chooses to attack civilians on the streets. The only difference is a rocket eliminates the need for a person and a belt of explosives. But we dare not criticize Hezbollah because they are the freedom fighters. As for, what do we do? Let Israel take the gloves off and rout out Hezbollah all through out Lebanon and if a trust worthy coalition will not act as a buffer between Lebanon and Israel to keep Hezbollah away fromthe border, then let Israel occupy southern Lebanon like they did for19 years.

I WOULD LIKE TO BE ACCEPTED FOR THE DOME!!! I honestly expressed My Highest Truth in that letter and I would truly appreciate a response, any response, especially whether you received it or not, and what Maharishi wants me to do. PLEASE READ MY FIRST LETTER TO MAHARISHI. I know most people working for Maharishi may be afraid to let him know what some of his governors have done to get in the dome, but I know you have INTEGRITY and will tell him the truth. Those governors who do not know Maharishi's intentions about them visiting other saints or using other self improvement techniques, should be told by Maharishi on the daily phone calls to the course, what he really expects, regarding this very important issue Just because they were not asked if they do other things, many governors have justified that it's o.k with Maharishi, and that they would not be in the dome unless he wanted them there. They feel those who are not there, somehow could be, if THEY REALLY WANTED IT. Everyone has to start being accountable for their actions, including the MOVEMENT REPRESENTASTIVES! I feel that THE RULES OF DOME ACCEPTANCE SHOULD APPY TO EVERYONE! A few should not be rejected if the many are doing the same things Everyone should be asked the same questions... whether they visit the saints! Not just those who are on some administrative black list. This is just common sense. This is also how many people, that I have talked to, feel avout it. Someone actually said to me the other night: Why do want to spoil it for the rest of us? Why didn't you just keep quiet. So many people visit saints in India or other cities around the U.S. and the world. I guess they feel that if they don't do it in Fairfield then it's o.k. No one will catch me, seems to be the theme. PLEASE DO NOT GET ME WRONG I do not feel that visiting the saints is in ANY WAY WRONG... To the contrary it is A GREAT GIFT to those who have the grace to receive it. I feel anyone who wishes to visit the saints should be encouraged to do so. As it is stated in the VEDAS KEEP THE COMPANY OF THE SAINTS. A lot of people over the years have felt THE MOVEMENT REPRESENTATIVES have lied to them. They somehoe feel that Maharishi doesn't say the things they hear from course officials. MAHARISHI PLEASE ADDRESS THIS POINT!! EVERYONE NEEDS TO HEAR IT FROM YOU WHAT YOU REALLY EXPECT! My first letter to you has somehow made it on the internet on the Fairfield Life site. I hope in some way this is helpful to others who have also not compromised their integrity, just to get their Dome Badge.

[FairfieldLife] Re: 'Tommy Chong- Stoned on Meditation New Book: The I Chong'
The best thing that ever happened to Toomy Chong was the prison sentence he got a few years back. It revived a dying career as he got much publicity out of being sentenced to prison for a silly, minor offense like having a bong pipe or some such thing. Only the truth is that although, technically, the minor offense is the reason he was sentenced to prison, that isn't the real reason he got the sentence he did. Apparently, no one ever spends time in prison for what Tommy was convicted of. But Tommy was so beligerant in court and so disrespectful of the judge that that is why the judge sentenced him to spend time in prison...it had nothing to do with what he was actually convicted of. So, obviously, Chong did it all as a publicity stunt and...it worked! What a phony. --- In FairfieldLife@yahoogroups.com, Robert Gimbel [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: Tommy Chong The world's funniest stoner on meditation, surviving prison, and his new book, `The I Chong' Illustration by Nathan Ota or Tommy Chong to get straight, he's got to go to God.

He's cultivated a meditative practice over the years of smash hit movies, Grammy- winning comedy albums, and woozy influence over decades of pop culture as half of the comedy duo Cheech Chong. So when he was busted in 2003 for selling Tommy Chong bongs and sentenced to nine months in the federal penitentiary at Taft, California, one of the items he brought with him was the I Ching, the ancient Chinese Book of Changes. While in prison, he started ruminating on life's lessons, and the result was his new book, The I Chong: Meditations from the Joint. This book is a breezy vision of the man's essential Chongness, as he writes not some preachy life lessons but about a life lived: growing up rough as the mixed-race child of a Chinese father and a Scottish-Irish mother in Western Canada; learning to tango with his wife, Shelby; and using his gentleness and wit to thrive in lock-up. I met the warden one day. I swear to God, I've met fans but he was one of the biggest fans ever, says Chong. He says, `Are they treating you OK?' He turned out to be a really sweet guy. Dean Kuipers CityBeat: Each chapter leaf in the book starts with a hexagram from the I Ching. Tommy Chong: I went through the I Ching and just picked out a heading that would best suit the chapter. And the I Ching I was just doing it it's three lines on top, three lines below. And they're either broken or straight. And it's based on an ancient book called the Book of Changes. You throw them they used to do it with bones, but then they evolved it to coins, and they used to do it with yarrow stalks [a common, long-stemmed white flower]. What you get is a good sense of how you're feeling, where you're at in your life. How is this a book of meditations? I'm a writer, I just write all the time. I hadn't planned it to be a book, I just have a compulsion. I tried to write a Cheech Chong book, and I've been working on it for five years, and I just can't get it going. But this new book was so personal that, when I started writing it, I realized: no one knows who I am. So I started writing about who I am, and I picked out memories from my past and then I realized, damn, I'm almost 70 years old, so I've got a lot of memories. And those are meditative? Well, I'm into meditation. Actually, Cheech turned me on to meditation. When I first met Cheech, he followed that guru from India [Maharishi Mahesh Yogi]. Every once in a while I'd go over to meet with Cheech, and he'd be meditating. It wasn't 'til years and years later that I read a book by Joel Goldsmith, The Mystical I, and he went into the depth of meditating with your mind on God. And so when I went into prison, I thought: well, this is the best place in the world to put meditation to work. What was your meditative practice in prison? I ended up being the go-to guy with the I Ching. You have a lot of time in jail, so I read about how they did it with the yarrow stalks, and yarrow stalks were growing in the Indian garden at the prison. I did I Ching readings for the prisoners and it would blow people's minds. I was in a recreation room and I was throwing coins and doing mine and this guy, Mike, came up to me and he asked, What are you up to, Chong? And I told him, and I said, Do you want me to do your reading? And he said Sure. So I had him throw the coins, and when he read his reading, it blew his mind so bad he just handed me the book and he stayed the rest of the day on his bunk. I read his thing and it said that he had just suffered a terrible accident. And he had, like, a couple of months before, his wife and child were killed in a car accident coming up to see him. The book nailed it. And same with me, my first reading was,

If she wanted any chance of a positive response she should have hand delivered it There is some truth to that. A hard copy to Vlodrop would probably have gotten it closer to the heart of the problem. Anyone got a mailing address for MMY in Vlodrop? Santa Claus 123 Reindeer Avenue North Pole -Doug in FF 2nd Letter To: hagelin@ Dear John, I am writing to you again just in case you have not had a chance to read my first letter, dated August 2, 2006, regarding my dome rejection. I WOULD LIKE TO BE ACCEPTED FOR THE DOME!!! I honestly expressed My Highest Truth in that letter and I would truly appreciate a response, any response, especially whether you received it or not, and what Maharishi wants me to do. PLEASE READ MY FIRST LETTER TO MAHARISHI. I know most people working for Maharishi may be afraid to let him know what some of his governors have done to get in the dome, but I know you have INTEGRITY and will tell him the truth. Those governors who do not know Maharishi's intentions about them visiting other saints or using other self improvement techniques, should be told by Maharishi on the daily phone calls to the course, what he really expects, regarding this very important issue Just because they were not asked if they do other things, many governors have justified that it's o.k with Maharishi, and that they would not be in the dome unless he wanted them there. They feel those who are not there, somehow could be, if THEY REALLY WANTED IT. Everyone has to start being accountable for their actions, including the MOVEMENT REPRESENTASTIVES! I feel that THE RULES OF DOME ACCEPTANCE SHOULD APPY TO EVERYONE! A few should not be rejected if the many are doing the same things Everyone should be asked the same questions... whether they visit the saints! Not just those who are on some administrative black list. This is just common sense. This is also how many people, that I have talked to, feel avout it. Someone actually said to me the other night: Why do want to spoil it for the rest of us? Why didn't you just keep quiet. So many people visit saints in India or other cities around the U.S. and the world. I guess they feel that if they don't do it in Fairfield then it's o.k. No one will catch me, seems to be the theme. PLEASE DO NOT GET ME WRONG I do not feel that visiting the saints is in ANY WAY WRONG... To the contrary it is A GREAT GIFT to those who have the grace to receive it. I feel anyone who wishes to visit the saints should be encouraged to do so. As it is stated in the VEDAS KEEP THE COMPANY OF THE SAINTS. A lot of people over the years have felt THE MOVEMENT REPRESENTATIVES have lied to them. They somehoe feel that Maharishi doesn't say the things they hear from course officials. MAHARISHI PLEASE ADDRESS THIS POINT!! EVERYONE NEEDS TO HEAR IT FROM YOU WHAT YOU REALLY EXPECT! My first letter to you has somehow made it on the internet on the Fairfield Life site. I hope in some way this is helpful to others who have also not compromised their integrity, just to get their Dome Badge. John, I would like to be accepted for the dome, having told the TRUTH about my life. I could have very easily lied when I was questioned but I chose to be completely HONEST and NOT HIDE ANYTHING ABOUT MY SPIRITUAL LIFE. Please respond to me, Shiva Ma First Letter from ShivaMa: FWD:From Shiva Ma Ryan, My Dome Rejection Please share this letter I wrote to John Hagelin with anyone you think may benefit from it. All Love, Shiva Ma My Dome rejection Shiva Ma Ryan to John Hagelin Aug 2 (5 days ago) Dear John, I was told to e-mail you if I had any trouble getting accepted at the dome. Hence this letter to you, because I have been faced with one of the most difficult choices of my life. John will you PLEASE share this letter with Maharishi, as I want Him to know THE REAL TRUTH about what has happened in Fairfield. Please read everything I have written in this e-mail John, I have tried to be as honest and as TRUTHFUL as I can. I also have suggestions at the end of this e-mail, that may benefit EVERYONE! When I applied for the course, I was told I would need more time to be processed. I knew I probably would not get an immediate acceptance, because a few years ago I applied and was asked if I practiced any techniques other than Maharishi's. I went to India with a GREAT saint from Asam, India, Shree Maa, in 1999, and I told the man

There are probably easily 500 or 800 people in the domes just like ShivaMa who have just seen the saints too. There certainly are a lot of TM meditators running below the TMorg `religious/spiritual practice/saints' administrative inquisition radar to have registered gotten in there. I have talked around with people these recent days also who were saying they had tried going back to the dome programs these past weeks and were remarking that the feeling of fear w/ people hiding there was so too thick that they were not going to go there because of that anymore. The fear and sadness that it is not more open gone the way it has does color what is left there. Evidently there is a bad group-effect the TMOrg have created there unwittingly on the subtle. It is pretty sad for the hope that it could have been. It has been a large disheartenment and dwindle for a long time and that feeling is deep in the practice of the dome community.. it is a bad perpetuation given the hope that it was once. -Doug in FF My take: if you must lie to accomplish something, it's probably not something you should be trying to accomplish. Of course, this is world peace we're talking about, so why are people doing things that they need to lie about in order to accomplish this? Perhaps world peace isn't as important to them as they like to pretend?

Maheshism has devolved into lunacy at a grandiose price only Mahesh himself could find low enough for the masses to afford.

They were not doing the TM Sidhis program therefore I must conclude that the only ones who can fly dont do TM sidhis therefore TM sidhis prevent flying. This is an example of reverse Sparaig logic. I was emailed by a former FFLife person who said to me Why are you trying to reason with morons? He was right . You cant. It is like trying to talk to fundamentalist christians, or fundamentalist muslims. They are beyond considering another point of view. TM is a wonderful technique. I love to meditate. Actually my meditations are much deeper since I started receiving deeksha. And finally I have been having some of the experiences that we talked about for 30 years since I received deeksha.

[FairfieldLife] Save Dogs in China
Title: Save Dogs in China Dear Friend, I thought you might be interested in this Humane Society International campaign to save dogs in China. The recent killing of more than 50,000 dogs in southwestern China has prompted worldwide outrage and underscores the need for animal protection laws in China. There are currently no laws on the books in China that would protect companion animals. Please contact the Chinese Ambassador to the U.S. on this issue now! https://community.hsus.org/campaign/china_dogs Rick __._,_.___ To subscribe, send a message to: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Or go to: http://groups.yahoo.com/group/FairfieldLife/ and click 'Join This Group!'

[FairfieldLife] Re: 'Tommy Chong- Stoned on Meditation New Book: The I Chong'
I still rate Cheech Chong's 'Basketball Jones' as a classic track the cartoon too, that was wild. Did you listen to George Harrison's guitar on that track? One of the loosest tastiest contributions he ever made, I reckon. --- In FairfieldLife@yahoogroups.com, shempmcgurk [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: The best thing that ever happened to Toomy Chong was the prison sentence he got a few years back. It revived a dying career as he got much publicity out of being sentenced to prison for a silly, minor offense like having a bong pipe or some such thing. Only the truth is that although, technically, the minor offense is the reason he was sentenced to prison, that isn't the real reason he got the sentence he did. Apparently, no one ever spends time in prison for what Tommy was convicted of. But Tommy was so beligerant in court and so disrespectful of the judge that that is why the judge sentenced him to spend time in prison...it had nothing to do with what he was actually convicted of. So, obviously, Chong did it all as a publicity stunt and...it worked! What a phony. --- In FairfieldLife@yahoogroups.com, Robert Gimbel babajii_99@ wrote: Tommy Chong The world's funniest stoner on meditation, surviving prison, and his new book, `The I Chong' Illustration by Nathan Ota or Tommy Chong to get straight, he's got to go to God. Not God as envisioned by, say, Jerry Falwell, not the God of hellfire, but the omniscient source of goodness and, yes, jokes. He's cultivated a meditative practice over the years of smash hit movies, Grammy- winning comedy albums, and woozy influence over decades of pop culture as half of the comedy duo Cheech Chong. So when he was busted in 2003 for selling Tommy Chong bongs and sentenced to nine months in the federal penitentiary at Taft, California, one of the items he brought with him was the I Ching, the ancient Chinese Book of Changes. While in prison, he started ruminating on life's lessons, and the result was his new book, The I Chong: Meditations from the Joint. This book is a breezy vision of the man's essential Chongness, as he writes not some preachy life lessons but about a life lived: growing up rough as the mixed-race child of a Chinese father and a Scottish-Irish mother in Western Canada; learning to tango with his wife, Shelby; and using his gentleness and wit to thrive in lock-up. I met the warden one day. I swear to God, I've met fans but he was one of the biggest fans ever, says Chong. He says, `Are they treating you OK?' He turned out to be a really sweet guy. Dean Kuipers CityBeat: Each chapter leaf in the book starts with a hexagram from the I Ching. Tommy Chong: I went through the I Ching and just picked out a heading that would best suit the chapter. And the I Ching I was just doing it it's three lines on top, three lines below. And they're either broken or straight. And it's based on an ancient book called the Book of Changes. You throw them they used to do it with bones, but then they evolved it to coins, and they used to do it with yarrow stalks [a common, long-stemmed white flower]. What you get is a good sense of how you're feeling, where you're at in your life. How is this a book of meditations? I'm a writer, I just write all the time. I hadn't planned it to be a book, I just have a compulsion. I tried to write a Cheech Chong book, and I've been working on it for five years, and I just can't get it going. But this new book was so personal that, when I started writing it, I realized: no one knows who I am. So I started writing about who I am, and I picked out memories from my past and then I realized, damn, I'm almost 70 years old, so I've got a lot of memories. And those are meditative? Well, I'm into meditation. Actually, Cheech turned me on to meditation. When I first met Cheech, he followed that guru from India [Maharishi Mahesh Yogi]. Every once in a while I'd go over to meet with Cheech, and he'd be meditating. It wasn't 'til years and years later that I read a book by Joel Goldsmith, The Mystical I, and he went into the depth of meditating with your mind on God. And so when I went into prison, I thought: well, this is the best place in the world to put meditation to work. What was your meditative practice in prison? I ended up being the go-to guy with the I Ching. You have a lot of time in jail, so I read about how they did it with the yarrow stalks, and yarrow stalks were growing in the Indian garden at the prison. I did I Ching readings for the prisoners and it would blow people's minds. I was in a recreation room and I was throwing coins and doing mine and this guy, Mike, came up to me and he asked, What are you up to, Chong? And I told him, and I said, Do you want me to do your reading? And he said Sure. So I had him throw the

We learn from our past or we are doomed to repeat it as the old saying goes. I think everybody would like to see the idea of giving one's life for his country as being foolish and unnecessary, but at this time in man's evolution it just hasn't gotten there yet. As long as people value political, economic, and religious freedom and there are people that are absolutely hell bent on denying your freedoms that you cherish, it will be necessary for some to lay their lives down for their society and their society owes them a very great debt of gratitude. Yes, you speak for the past very eloquently. While I know it's not your intent, I'll take that as a compliment. Until then, go to the dome, round your ears off and maybe the people that would deprive you of freedom will have a change of heart and not want to force their way of life on you and others and be content with their own lives as they are or try a more civilized means of bettering themselves. My complement was exactly that. However I don't feel you are addressing the present global reality. With regard to bouncing in the Dome, maybe peace will be achieved and maybe not.

Dear Jeanne,I think that, if your e-mail is for dr. Hagelin, then you should send an e-mail to him, and not to Fairfield Life group. Otherwise, it is not a letter, but an open letter, and that is a big difference. So, something is not clear in the way you send your e-mail, and now you send also a second e-mail in the same unclear way. I would suggest to you that, if you really want just to send e-mail to dr.

I went to India with a GREAT saintfrom Asam, India, Shree Maa, in 1999, and I told the man questioningme "I had experienced EVERYTHING that India had to offer, and thatwhat I learned in private, I kept private. I had asked the question toover 600 people that I initiated, back in the seventies: "Everythingwe learn in private, we keep private. Do you agree?" This answerseemed the most truthful and appropriate to me, yet I was notaccepted then for the dome.This past Saturday July 29th, I was encouraged by my sister andbrother-in law and several friends at a birthday party, that I shouldapply now for the dome, because they were accepting EVERYONE!Regardless of past associations with saints or other techniques, I wastold EVERYONE was WELCOME BACK!!! The words "All sins would beforgiven" were used. Those words deeply pinched my heart. I have neverconsidered spending time with Fully Awakened Divine Beings a sin. Ihave been incredibly fortunate to travel with many saints over thelast twelve years. Each ONE I always experienced as MAHARISHI. EachONE, that I was BLESSED by, deepened my INCREDIBLE LOVE, RESPECT andETERNAL GRATITUDE to Maharishi for all that He had given me in thepast. Maharishi was my FIRST GURU!!! Yet Maharishi becameinaccessible to me. The last time I saw Him was at The 7000 Course in1983. My heart was longing for him, So I felt that one by one Hestarted sending different saints to BLESS ME!!! Over the years, Ihave received the GRACE and BLESSINGS from over 15 different saintsthat have visited Fairfield since 1997. In 1994 my first GREATBLESSING was from MOTHER MEERA, in Germany. She changed my lifeforever... I have had the GREAT fortune of traveling with many ofthese DIVINE BEINGS. I am so GRATEFUL for the Love and Grace I havebeen given from these PURE DIVINE MANIFESTATIONS of Gods andGoddess's.I want to offer my HUMBLEST GRATITUDE to Maharishi for alwaysremaining in my HEART of HEARTS, since November 19, 1971. I will be inHIS ETERNAL DEBT for the GRACE HE SHOWERED upon me over and over againthroughout all these years. JAI GURU DEV MAHARISHI!

Ihave not been able to shake them. {Please ask Maharishi to help mewith this.} He said I would be able to get my badge if: "I SEVEREDany connection I had with any saints and SEVERED the use of anytechniques that they had taught me, and that I would NEVER establish aconnection with them again or practice any other techniques other thanMaharishi's, EVER AGAIN. And that I had to put all of this in writing,promising that I would do this. For GOD'S SAKE, How in the name ofWHOLENESS! ONENESS! DIVINITY! and SELF REALIZATION! could I promisethat My SOUL WOULD NEVER ALLOW THATI could have lied and said anything that Jeff wanted to hear, got mybadge, and no one would have known. THAT IS NOT ME, THAT IS NOT HOW IREPRESENT TRUTH AND DIVINITY. I DO NOT, AND I WILL NOT, EVER LIE toachieve a small gain in the present, who would I be lying to ONLYMY SELFWhen Jeff was explaing to me how Maharishi said that one should notcross the river in two

[FairfieldLife] Awareness of cosmic life
Guru Purnima Celebration, 13.7.06 MAHARISHI: all those who are going home, what you have experienced is familiarity with the finest fields of creative intelligence within. These longer times, longer time, longer time, taking the mind to experience the Sutras, Sutra after Sutra, finer feeling of Sutra after Sutra, finer Sutra after finer Sutra. This has made your awareness familiar with the administrative activity of cosmic life. Finer you experience, finer fields of creativity you enliven in your awareness. Finer experience of each Sutra. Each Sutra enlivens the finer field of cosmic creativity in your single awareness. It is the greatest gift of life that you are enlivening for yourself. And I tell you, don`t worry what happens to the national life or what happens to your environment, coherence and all... These are the gossips. We are not so much (?) by the people say about our influence in the environment, the whole influence in Holland, in the national consciousness. It doesn`t matter what happens outside. But basically our life, our consciousness, our Atma, ourself becomes more and more stabilized in the total reality of cosmic constitution. That is our gain. We don`t mind what happens outside. We are happy to see that outside also becomes better, but basic thing is what happens to us. After each meditation our own awareness, our own mind, our own intellect, our own consciousness is in tune more and more with that energy and intelligence which administers the universe. We are more and more administrator of cosmic life in our own Self. What will happen, our own desire, our own goals in life will be materialized for us more easily...

Only the truth is that although, technically, the minor offense is the reason he was sentenced to prison, that isn't the real reason he got the sentence he did. Apparently, no one ever spends time in prison for what Tommy was convicted of.
