Excerpt from The Guru Papers: Most cults follow a predictable progression of two distinct stages, which indicates that what is involved is more a function of how authoritarian structures work than of the particular teachings of a given guru. This first stage is messianic with the message being that all labors of the organization, including the guru's, are aimed at a higher purpose beyond the group, such as saving mankind. . . . A time inevitably comes when the popularity and power of the group plateaus and then begins to wane. Eventually it becomes obvious that the guru is not going to take over the world, at least not in the immediate future. When the realization comes that humanity is too stupid or blind to acknowledge that higher authority and wisdom of the guru, the apocalyptic phase enters and the party is over... Indeed. *Well* worth reading again. What *IS* this tendency in human beings that seems to cause their spiritual and religious movements first to expand and focus on selfless service, and then later to contract and focus instead on self importance? If we ever figured that out, we might be able to create an alternative to this sad trend.

[SK1, P 338] This may be a somewhat extreme standpoint, and it seems likely that there was traffic of ideas in all directions of the Ancient world, but there is little doubt that the vast majority of Indian work is original to its writers. It may lack the cold logic and truly abstract character of modern mathematics but this observation further helps to identify it as uniquely Indian. Of all the mathematics contained in the Vedangas it is the definite appearance of decimal symbols for numerals and a place value system that should perhaps be considered the most phenomenal.

[FairfieldLife] 'Another Bloody Day In Babylon/Baghdad/Iraq- 09-22-2006
Explosion kills at least 32 in Baghdad's Sadr City neighborhood Friday, September 22, 2006 BAGHDAD, Iraq - A bomb blew up a kerosene tanker truck in Baghdad's Sadr City neighborhood on Saturday, killing at least 32 people, police said. Another 38 people were wounded by the 10 a.m. (0600 GMT) blast in the sprawling Shiite slum. People frantically carried survivors from the narrow muddy street to ambulances, and hauled away bodies in blankets. The bomb was hidden in a barrel near the tanker, where scores of people were waiting to buy fuel, said police Col. Saad Abdul-Sada. A crowd of people was gathered behind the truck, with a long line down the street when the bomb exploded, Abdul-Sada said. There were more people on hand than usual as families sought to stock up on fuel for the Muslim holy month of Ramadan, he said. In the aftermath of the blast, sandals of all sizes littered the ground, scattered around a large pool of water mixed with blood. I swear to Allah that this is a revenge against Sadr City, a young man yelled, raising his hands in the air. Where is (Prime Minister Nouri) al-Maliki's government? Seventeen women were among the dead, Abdul-Sada said, adding that casualties were expected to rise. Sadr City is home to more than two million people and a stronghold of the Mahdi army - a Shiite militia loyal to radical cleric Muqtada al- Sadr.

Tuesday Lobsang Rampa, Wisdom of the Ancients Yogananda refers to subtle pranayamas that bring about levitation, so this isn't unheard of. I think its because the verses in the Yogatattva Upanishads about levitation follow verses about pranayama. Howeer, the description of suuspended breathing sounds like a description of samadhi during TM, so it is unclear to me if physical pranayama practice is being discussed by the time the levitation verses are being described: 32. Then assuming Padma posture, he should practise Pranayama. He should erect a beautiful monastery with a very small opening and with no crevices. 33. It should be well pasted with cow-dung or with white cement. It should be carefully freed from bugs, mosquitoes and lice. 34. It should be swept well every day with a broom. It should be perfumed with good odours; and fragrant resins should burn in it. 35-36(a). Having taken his seat neither too high nor too low on a cloth, deer-skin and Kusa grass spread, one over the other, the wise man should assume the Padma posture and keeping his body erect and his hands folded in respect, should salute his tutelary deity. 36(b)-40. Then closing the right nostril with his right thumb, he should gradually draw in the air through the left nostril. Having restrained it as long as possible, he should again expel it through the right nostril slowly and not very fast. Then filling the stomach through the right nostril, he should retain it as long as he can and then expel it through the left nostril. Drawing the air through that nostril by which he expels, he should continue this in uninterrupted succession. The time taken in making a round of the knee with the palm of the hand, neither very slowly nor vary rapidly and snapping the fingers once is called a Matra. 41-44. Drawing the air through the left nostril for about sixteen Matras and having retained it (within) for about sixty-four Matras, one should expel it again through the right nostril for about thirty-two Matras. Again fill the right nostril as before (and continue the rest). Practise cessation of breath four times daily (viz.,) at sunrise, noon, sunset and midnight, till eighty (times are reached). By a continual practice for about three months, the purification of the Nadis takes place. When the Nadis have become purified, certain external signs appear on the body of the Yogin. 45-46(a). I shall proceed to describe them. (They are) lightness of the body, brilliancy of complexion, increase of the gastric fire, leanness of the body and along with these, absence of restlessness in the body. 46(b)-49. The proficient in Yoga should abandon the food detrimental to the practice of Yoga. He should give up salt, mustard; things sour, hot, pungent, or bitter vegetables; asafoetida, etc., worship of fire, women, walking, bathing at sunrise, emaciation of the body by fasts, etc. During the early stages of practice, food of milk and ghee is ordained; also food consisting of wheat, green pulse and red rice are said to favour the progress. Then he will be able to retain his breath as long as he likes. 50-53. By thus retaining the breath as long as he likes, Kevala Kumbhaka (cessation of breath without inspiration and expiration) is attained. When Kevala Kumbhaka is attained by one and thus expiration and inspiration are dispensed with, there is nothing unattainable in the three worlds to him. In the commencement (of his practice), sweat is given out; he should wipe it off. Even after that, owing to the retaining of the breath, the person practising it gets phlegm. Then by an increased practice of Dharana, sweat arises. 54. As a frog moves by leaps, so the Yogin sitting in the Padma posture moves on the earth. With a (further) increased practice, he is able to rise from the ground. 55. He, while seated in Padma posture, levitates. There arises to him the power to perform extraordinary feats. 56. He does (or should) not disclose to others his feats of great powers (in the path). Any pain small or great, does not affect the Yogin.

(from dhaaraNaa breathing's...trembling[?] becomes). The syntax might even be so weird that there's a second genitive attribute dehasya, thus it might refer to both breathing and the trembling of the body. If that's not the case I don't know how to make sense of dehasya in that sentence.

Many people think of silence as a problem-the awkwardness when conversation grinds to an embarrassing halt, a mother's sense of trouble when the kids go quiet, the media announcer's frantic attempt to fill up air time with anything other than nothingness. But as meditators, we know silence as something altogether different. To call it bliss seems trite, but even as a writer I fail to find an adequate description for that sweet spot inside so still that even breath causes ripples in it, that oasis hidden on the dark side of the moon, that place inside us where we flirt with genesis. Whatever name we give to inner silence, I've learned that the best place to find it is in the domes in Fairfield. We didn't have domes when I learned yogic flying in 1978 on the first MUM student's course. We'd heard whispers about flying, but I don't think we really believed it, not even when we saw sheets of foam spread on the pod-house floors. But on that magical summer, almost before we had time to close our eyes, the woman next to me popped up with an astonished oh! as if someone had goosed her. Like a pot at the boiling point, the room fairly steamed with intermittent stifled gasps and giggles as more of us experienced that sudden, bubble-like lifting into the air. We learned that the foam was to soften the landing. After the course, we did programs alone. A few months later, a message came that Maharishi wanted everyone to meet in the fieldhouse. It felt like a secret-service mission as we almost tiptoed into that stodgy, dark building, finding the basketball court covered with foam. What an adventure! We seemed less about silence then than noise and exuberance. We were filled with a sense of wonder and daring as we made great leaps and wild sounds like fledgling giants testing their reach. We watched the stock market and world news go up and down, depending upon our numbers. I have never lost my sense of sadness that on the one day we did not do program together, the day of my graduation in 1979 when they took up the foam for commencement, an airplane crashed killing 271 people, the only such accident in months before or after. After graduation, I left Fairfield. While I was gone, Maharishi himself inaugurated the 22,000 square feet (approximately the size of a football field) dome, called the Maharishi Patanjali Hall of Knowledge, in 1980. On returning, the enormity of it, the sheer volume of space from floor to ceiling, reminded me of the mothership in Close Encounters of the Third Kind. Tongue-in-groove wood ceiling, central skylights, red carpets, and gold velvet drapes covering more than a hundred arched windows all served to bring new heights to the depths of silence. I felt jealous because it had been built for the men, feeling only somewhat mollified when women got to use it on alternative months. At first, I felt traumatized by the segregation of the sexes.

It left me with a greater appreciation for both sexes and a longing for the completion of the women's dome, the Bagambhrini Hall of Knowledge, the twin to Patanjali.

But while inner silence had increased, the outer level had gotten out of hand. Before program, hundreds of us gossiped in loud whispers against a background litany of microphone announcements and security procedures.

[FairfieldLife] Free Rounding!: Response Then and Now
With the $500 stipend for room, board and incidentals, and free tuition, I bgan to think of how I and my SIMS friends would have reacted in the early 70's: Packed and out the door, running! This contrasts with today's limp response. Why. I think a major difference is back then, we were in our 20's fluid, without roots or responsibilities, and could leave school, jobs or hanging out, with great alactrity, if not electricity. Even with no internet or cell phones, and expensive long distance rates, word of such a course would have spread like wild fire. 2000+ would have amassed on FF faster than the blitzkreig. Others can make the case for disillusionment with the TMO, broken past promises, and uneven applicaion of dome admittance rules. Those are factors also. But I suggest the age cohorts of the TMO, now and then, are the far more germaine underlying driver of different participion rates, now and then. And i have been thinking of how fast SIMS grew from nothing. Peter Wallace, travelling hippie style, wandered in to the Rishikesh ashram and was taught TM, in 1965 or so. He returned to LA, told his younger brother Keith about how awesome TM was, they told friends -- like Karen Blasdale -- and got a young SRM initiatiator named Jerry Jarvis to give a lecture at UCLA. It grew rapidly by word of mouth. Word spread to Berekely, courses were given, it blossomed. All pre-Beatles. SIMS was growing very rapidly, without theBeatles. If instead of the Beatles starting, a 12 month free course had bee offered for the first 2000 to sign up, I think it would have soon been flooded. Sudents, first in California, then other universities, would have been banging on the door so they could start TM and then get the heavy juice at the 12 month FREE course. Or if you are skeptical of that scenario, the Beatles left MMY in Spring of 1968. Rejected him. If the Beatles effect was so powerful, it should have squashed the growth of SIMS. But SIMS grew hugely 68-72. And by 72, 2000-3000 students were in Mallorca/Fuiggi. All pre-siddhis. A new SIMS army of TMers and long-course wannabes could arise almost overnight, as it did in the 60's. The only blockage I see to a neo-SIMS flood is the 2500 TM fee. $600 if a whole school does it, but thats a hard one, IMO. (30% of a school, no problem. 100% yes, a problem). If the TMO dropped SIMS rates to $400, perhaps tying it to FF course application, soon they would be flooded once word got out, and students got it. Heck, just give free TM scholarships to all the students who attended the Lynch lectures, and that could be the kernal to start it all. A blazing bonfire of 2000+ SIMSers rushing to the FREE course. With 2000 SIMSers, plus 1000 or so regulars in FF now, 3000 full program 8-hour YFers would I suspect, really have some juice, really have an impact. And this light' could make older 60's SIMSers wake up and want to Go to the Course. Another 2000 or so 60's SIMSers could easily decide to take a years sabatical, vacation, early retirement, etc. if things were really popping in FF. So with 3000+ 2000 = 5000 full time YF, it could then really begin to snowball. Bono might even show up :) Regarding a neo-SIMS, some will say, well, sure, but when they dig a bit deeper, they will run of the hills when they hear of rajas, eastern entrances, yagyas, etc. I disagree. As far as entrances and yagyas, many will respond (in their venacular), as 60's students would have, HEAVY! Does this get any more far out!. And why should the raja's scare students if say HHDL doesn't. To me its amazing. i am a jaded old SIMSer. But, rembering the spark and wildfire effect of great courses, in the early 70's, I think we might be very close to that now. To me the major hurdle is the SIMS TM fee. 2000 students x $2000 fee reduction is only $4mil. Either SIMS bite the bullet (It would still make $1mil of fees for 2000 students at $500 -- far more than its making now on students) or someone donate $4Mil. The Lynch foundation perhaps. For the first time in ages, I'm stoked! A BIG course could be close. Or very far. Its at a tipping point. As may be a real core transformation of the world.

If many of those were not stick-up their ass career-tracked kids, i don't know what were. Yet there was a strong (latently) spiritual seeking subset that rocked the world.

The Lynch lecture kids looked something other career-a-trons. And who says its either or. Many students put college on hold for a year or tow to explore. Nothing incompatible with that and strong career goals. You are honestly saying, that out of 20 million collegeage students (guess) there are not 2000 that would get pumped at the opportunity for a free one year course (after they were given a chance to get into TM a bit).

After some discussion, I said I was familiar with the underlying org that supports him and it had some pretty cultish features -- and I elaborated.

In thinking about it more, perhps you don't see the same 20ish kids I do. FF perhaps has become a bit of a retirement community with few kids. But I see many kids that are hardly career-zombies. Segments that are heavily into fitness and/or piercings, goth-looks (fading some from 5-10 years ago), marching in streets against IMF, WTO, etc. All signs of seekers, IMO. Look at MYspace. Hardly an army of uniform career-zombies. Quite more diverse and interesting than the majority of students in the mid-60s -- just before the dam broke. And again, for thos who are strongly career-focussed -- being so is quite compatible with exploring the world a bit in ones 20's. Exploring, breaking boundaries, doing the unvonventional can often be a huge plus in ones later career. Both in initial job interviews -- something that sets them apart-- and later on -- the qualites of shakti and/or creative intelligence blossoming. And as far as the spark. Getting today's kids attention. hopping on your ass or 8 hours in a cornfield in Iowa is not going to get their attention. But get a core of students who do the program among 1000-1500 and word will spread. I am not talking ME. That may or may not have much validity. But everyone who haws been on a big course knows there is big juice. Something strong happening. If and when todays students get a whiff of that -- AND ITS FREE -- they will react as you and I and 1000's of others did in the early 70s. And today's and tomorrow's careers are hardly what they were 20-30 years ago. They are more fluid, flexibily, sliceable, morphable, etc. Much more compatible with a periodic YF that they were in the 70's.

But $500 a month to live on and pay room and board is worse than 15 years ago when I took the MA-SCI for less than 18 hours work a week, got tuition, got free room and board, rounding, free advanced techniques, free PK, free yagyas, free amrit, free sports center, swim pool, free weekend trips of various kinds, free jyotish, and 75 bucks a month, plus other stuff.

Much more so than the Boomers, who wanted to do good by meditating, getting doped up, refusing to go to war. I don't know what it would take to tip the balance for the younger kids, but so far they are more interested in cation/karma and not interested in spirituality/meditation- at least not in large numbers.

[FairfieldLife] Heckuva job, George
From tomorrow's edition of The New York Times: September 24, 2006 Spy Agencies Say Iraq War Worsens Terror Threat By MARK MAZZETTI WASHINGTON, Sept. 23 A stark assessment of terrorism trends by American intelligence agencies has found that the American invasion and occupation of Iraq has helped spawn a new generation of Islamic radicalism and that the overall terrorist threat has grown since the Sept. 11 attacks. The classified National Intelligence Estimate attributes a more direct role to the Iraq war in fueling radicalism than that presented either in recent White House documents or in a report released Wednesday by the House Intelligence Committee, according to several officials in Washington involved in preparing the assessment or who have read the final document. The intelligence estimate, completed in April, is the first formal appraisal of global terrorism by United States intelligence agencies since the Iraq war began, and represents a consensus view of the 16 disparate spy services inside government. Titled Trends in Global Terrorism: Implications for the United States,'' it asserts that Islamic radicalism, rather than being in retreat, has metastasized and spread across the globe. An opening section of the report, Indicators of the Spread of the Global Jihadist Movement, cites the Iraq war as a reason for the diffusion of jihad ideology. The report says that the Iraq war has made the overall terrorism problem worse, said one American intelligence official National Intelligence Estimates are the most authoritative documents that the intelligence community produces on a specific national security issue, and are approved by John D. Negroponte, director of national intelligence. Their conclusions are based on analysis of raw intelligence collected by all of the spy agencies For more than two years, there has been tension between the Bush administration and American spy agencies over the violence in Iraq and the prospects for a stable democracy in the country. Some intelligence officials have said the White House has consistently presented a more optimistic picture of the situation in Iraq than justified by intelligence reports from the field The broad judgments of the new intelligence estimate are consistent with assessments of global terrorist threats by American allies and independent terrorism experts. The panel investigating the London terrorist bombings of July 2005 reported in May that the leaders of Britain's domestic and international intelligence services, MI5 and MI6, emphasized to the committee the growing scale of the Islamist terrorist threat. More recently, the Council on Global Terrorism, an independent research group of respected terrorism experts, assigned a grade of D+ to United States efforts over the past five years to combat Islamic extremism. The council concluded that there is every sign that radicalization in the Muslim world is spreading rather than shrinking.

[FairfieldLife] Re: Fly Scorpion Air?
The obvious solution, of course, is for the TMO to return to teaching TM in the UK so that such incidents don't happen again. Yes, because low superadiance numbers supposedly bring about horrendous plane crashes with 271 deaths. At least, that's what I heard the other day. Reminds me of the time I was flying on TWA and had to make a connection in St. Louis. I previously had avoided that airline, but they were the only one with a discount price at short notice. I had to wait over four hours for the connection, because of thunderstorms, and while waiting I come across a local newspaper headline mentioning the four or five times an engine had fallen off of a TWA plane. I was not concerned, as I knew I was a mere several hundred miles from superradiance headquarters for the North American continent and was not all that far from the brahmastan of the US. --- Alex Stanley [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: --- In FairfieldLife@yahoogroups.com, bob_brigante [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: http://tinyurl.com/kgbbt British Airways loses an engine after takeoff from Los Angeles, decides not to land to save money, then ends up making an emergency landing in Manchester, declaring a fuel emergency before being able to land in London.

[FairfieldLife] To whom fabricated the brahman Thingy
Who was it that invented this brahman thingy? And can it ever be found? As in the completely fabricated brahman thingy of Mr. Raja Roy circa 1828. PLEASE SEE THE UNDISPUTED *HISTORICAL FACTS BELOW*. The term brahmo(which later became brahman) did not exist prior to 1828!! period. We can factually determine this because the *Offical British* census conducted later classified the major religions, and brahmo *was classified* as a seperate and distinct religion see link cited below ..The, Brahmo religion can be first found in an offical census conducted in India by the British Provinical Goverment in 1872.. source- http://www.censusindia.net/religiondata/Introduction_2001_religion.pd f The Hindus (and all of India for that matter) of 1827 knew nothing of a brahmo / brahman as the term had not ever been used to describe a god of a religion that had yet to be invented by Raja Ram Roy!.. THAT IS A FACT! see link cited ..He founded the Brahmo Samaj at Calcutta in 1828, which was initially known as the Brahmo Sabha.. source- http://www.chanda.freeserve.co.uk/rmroy1.htm ...Brahman is worshipped as the sole creator and supporter of the universe. This monotheism is based on the interpretation of the early Vedanta, the Upanishads, and the Brahma Sutra. Ram Mohan Roy,founder of Brahmo Samaj,identified the monotheism of Christianity and Islam as of universal validity... source- http://philtar.ucsm.ac.uk/encyclopedia/hindu/ascetic/brahmo.html Rammohun Roy (aka- Raja Ram Roy).. ...Greater, however, than the influence exercised on the philosophical thought of modern Europe, has been the impulse which these same Upanishads have imparted to the religious life of modern India. In about the same year (1774 or 1775) when the first MS. of the Persian translation of the Upanishads was received by Anquetil Duperron, Rammohun Roy[24] was born in India, the reformer and reviver of the ancient religion of the Brahmans. A man who in his youth could write a book Against the Idolatry of all Religions, and who afterwards expressed in so many exact words his belief in the divine authority of Christ [25] was not likely to retain anything of the sacred literature of his own religion, unless he had perceived in it the same divine authority which he recognised in the teaching of Christ. He rejected the Purânas, he would not have been swayed in his convictions by the authority of the Laws of Manu, or even by the sacredness of the Vedas. He was above all that. But he discovered in the Upanishads and in the so-called Vedânta something different from all the rest, something that ought not to be thrown away, something that, if rightly understood, might supply the right native soil in which alone the seeds of true religion, aye, of true Christianity, might spring up again and prosper in India, as they had once sprung up and prospered from out the philosophies of Origen or Synesius. European scholars have often wondered that Rammohun Roy, in his defence of the Veda, should have put aside the Samhitâs and the Brâhmanas, and laid his finger on the Upanishads only, as the true kernel of the whole Veda... SOURCE- http://www.infoplease.com/t/rel/upanishads/ The religion of brahmo-ism / brahman-ism is based Roy's interpetation of a combination of two schools of thought - 1). the god of Judeo-Christain tradition, and 2). early vedanta Upanishads Brahma Sutra Roy combined the two schools of thought, and came with brahmo- ism / brahman-ism as cited by numerous and widely accepted sources. In fact there was only one religion-Brahmo that worshipped a brahman thingy, as is pointed out by Dr. Coplin in his report on the 'Early History of (S)piritual (R)egeneration (M)ovement'. see links cited ...We have held it from the very first that Brahmoism was but a perverted or distorted form of Christianity..Christianity constituted, as it were, the vital principle of Brahmoism, it is the source of its life, vigor, and strength.. source- http://members.aol.com/drcoplin/SRMemergence.html Furthermore we know for a fact that the British hired Raja Ram Roy and supported his efforts to create a new religion-Brahmo-ism and the worship of a brahman thingy it is a *Historical Fact*. see links cited ..The employment history and financial support of Raja Ram Mohan Roy is easily traced. He got a job under John Digby,a company official of the British East India Company. Ram Mohan was introduced to western culture, and literature shortly following his employment, through Digby... [end] source-http://www.bsna.org/bzine-m/jan2k1/bvani-y2k/ramohanroy.htm And, Raja Ram Roy is just one of the many paid hack writers the British hired to attempt to destroy and demean the *true* religion (Sanatan Dharm) of India, and ceate another in its place. And in fact the British had admitted to the attempts publicly. see links cited

Much more so than the Boomers, who wanted to do good by meditating, getting doped up, refusing to go to war. Actually, the boomers were *very* service-minded. Ever hear of the Peace Corps? Ever hear of the civil rights movement? There was all kinds of grassroots volunteer activity as well, running soup kitchens, caring for the homeless, advocating for the poor, and so on. Plus which, there's a trend today for boomer retirees to take on second careers in various areas of volunteer service, since they're more financially secure and generally in better health than previous generations were at their age. Totally true. Look at Richard Branson, Bill Gates in the news again yesterday for philanthropy. You cannot get more of a baby boomer type than Richard Branson. LiveAid was mostly boomer thing started by Bob Geldof in about 1984. Plus the boomers helped to stop the stupid republican war in Vietnam, (a conflict for which there was at least some reasonable logic in the beginning --- unlike the current irrational arrogant historical strategic mistake quagmire in Iraq.)

[FairfieldLife] Re: To whom fabricated the brahman Thingy
No-one ever believes anyone these days if they say the words : We know for a fact ...(which you said at least twice. Come back in 10 years little pseudo-scholar, when you are ready. OffWorld --- In FairfieldLife@yahoogroups.com, coldbluiceman [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: Who was it that invented this brahman thingy? And can it ever be found? As in the completely fabricated brahman thingy of Mr. Raja Roy circa 1828. PLEASE SEE THE UNDISPUTED *HISTORICAL FACTS BELOW*. The term brahmo(which later became brahman) did not exist prior to 1828!! period. We can factually determine this because the *Offical British* census conducted later classified the major religions, and brahmo *was classified* as a seperate and distinct religion see link cited below ..The, Brahmo religion can be first found in an offical census conducted in India by the British Provinical Goverment in 1872.. source- http://www.censusindia.net/religiondata/Introduction_2001_religion.pd f The Hindus (and all of India for that matter) of 1827 knew nothing of a brahmo / brahman as the term had not ever been used to describe a god of a religion that had yet to be invented by Raja Ram Roy!.. THAT IS A FACT! see link cited ..He founded the Brahmo Samaj at Calcutta in 1828, which was initially known as the Brahmo Sabha.. source- http://www.chanda.freeserve.co.uk/rmroy1.htm ...Brahman is worshipped as the sole creator and supporter of the universe. This monotheism is based on the interpretation of the early Vedanta, the Upanishads, and the Brahma Sutra. Ram Mohan Roy,founder of Brahmo Samaj,identified the monotheism of Christianity and Islam as of universal validity... source- http://philtar.ucsm.ac.uk/encyclopedia/hindu/ascetic/brahmo.html Rammohun Roy (aka- Raja Ram Roy).. ...Greater, however, than the influence exercised on the philosophical thought of modern Europe, has been the impulse which these same Upanishads have imparted to the religious life of modern India. In about the same year (1774 or 1775) when the first MS. of the Persian translation of the Upanishads was received by Anquetil Duperron, Rammohun Roy[24] was born in India, the reformer and reviver of the ancient religion of the Brahmans. A man who in his youth could write a book Against the Idolatry of all Religions, and who afterwards expressed in so many exact words his belief in the divine authority of Christ [25] was not likely to retain anything of the sacred literature of his own religion, unless he had perceived in it the same divine authority which he recognised in the teaching of Christ. He rejected the Purânas, he would not have been swayed in his convictions by the authority of the Laws of Manu, or even by the sacredness of the Vedas. He was above all that. But he discovered in the Upanishads and in the so-called Vedânta something different from all the rest, something that ought not to be thrown away, something that, if rightly understood, might supply the right native soil in which alone the seeds of true religion, aye, of true Christianity, might spring up again and prosper in India, as they had once sprung up and prospered from out the philosophies of Origen or Synesius. European scholars have often wondered that Rammohun Roy, in his defence of the Veda, should have put aside the Samhitâs and the Brâhmanas, and laid his finger on the Upanishads only, as the true kernel of the whole Veda... SOURCE- http://www.infoplease.com/t/rel/upanishads/ The religion of brahmo-ism / brahman-ism is based Roy's interpetation of a combination of two schools of thought - 1). the god of Judeo-Christain tradition, and 2). early vedanta Upanishads Brahma Sutra Roy combined the two schools of thought, and came with brahmo- ism / brahman-ism as cited by numerous and widely accepted sources. In fact there was only one religion-Brahmo that worshipped a brahman thingy, as is pointed out by Dr. Coplin in his report on the 'Early History of (S)piritual (R)egeneration (M)ovement'. see links cited ...We have held it from the very first that Brahmoism was but a perverted or distorted form of Christianity..Christianity constituted, as it were, the vital principle of Brahmoism, it is the source of its life, vigor, and strength.. source- http://members.aol.com/drcoplin/SRMemergence.html Furthermore we know for a fact that the British hired Raja Ram Roy and supported his efforts to create a new religion-Brahmo-ism and the worship of a brahman thingy it is a *Historical Fact*. see links cited ..The employment history and financial support of Raja Ram Mohan Roy is easily traced. He got a job under John Digby,a company official of the British East India Company. Ram Mohan was introduced to western culture, and literature shortly

It's hard to know why you feel compelled to make cruel and untrue remarks about someone I presume you have never met. (I've known Sharalyn for some years now.) I only know Sharalyn from her posts of several years ago so my impression of her is based on her posts. My intention is certainly not to be cruel and not to utter untuths about her. I found her posts to be psychologically immature because of her extreme idealization of MMY and the TMO and the absolute and utter refusal to deal with any shadow material of her own experincing or that of the TMO or, for that matter, anyone else posting of such material. For me, this is a mood-maker and very surprising for a woman in her 50's. However, she is very intelligent and writes quite well. But she has not been blooded by life or if she has, she has not learned from it. This is my psychological assessment of her. You don't agree. Fine. I'm sure knowing her in person is differewnt than knowing her through her posts. I do have one question, though. Why did she change her name? An unusual move for someone of her age. Ive known Sharalyn since 1985, when we were in the MA in Professional Writing program at MIU together. I consider her a friend. She doesnt come across preachy in person the way she did on FFL. Shes quite liberal, by movement standards, going to visit Amma, etc. Shes in her late 50s or early 60s and got married recently to a nice fellow. I dont know if she had been married earlier in her life. She has been bloodied by life as much as if not more than most of us. I havent had a chance to ask her why she changed her name. I dont think her new last name is her husbands last name, but I may be wrong about that. __._,_.___ To subscribe, send a message to: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Or go to: http://groups.yahoo.com/group/FairfieldLife/ and click 'Join This Group!'

[FairfieldLife] 'Is Chavez Paranoid, or Just Psychotic?'
Bush will kill me: ChavezFrom correspondents in Caracas September 24, 2006VENEZUELAN President Hugo Chavez accused his American counterpart George W. Bush overnight of ordering his assassination for calling the US leader the devil during his speech at the United Nations this week."The devil appears very sulphurous, and a few people say that he has given the order to kill me," Chavez said during a speech before scientists in western Venezuela. "Many concerned friends have called me, (saying) that because I said 'devil' over there (at the UN), they have sentenced me to die. They will not kill me, I have much faith in life," Mr Chavez added. The leftist Venezuelan leader called Mr Bush "the devil", "a liar" and a "tyrant" during his speech at the UN General Assembly on Wednesday, one day after the US President spoke from the same podium. Mr Chavez again showed a copy of Hegemony or Survival overnight, a book by US academic Noam Chomsky that he had first held up during his address to the UN assembly. He said he had to wash the book "with holy water because I put it in the same place that the devil put his papers." __Do You Yahoo!?Tired of spam? Yahoo!
