[FairfieldLife] Re: Vaj... how do you define Vedic culture?
off wrote: Vaj... how do you define Vedic culture? Vedic culture is that culture that composed the Vedas? 1. What are its 10 main gods/deities? Indra, Agni, Soma, Varuna, Aryaman, Surya, Vayu, Prithivi, Ushas, Aditi and Saraswati. And who are those three hundred and three, and three thousand and three gods? Read more: From: Willytex Subject: How many gods are there really? Newsgroups: alt.meditation.transcendental, alt.yoga, alt.meditation Date: September 4, 2003 http://tinyurl.com/l5o3fd 2. What is its main 5-10 poems/stories/oral knowledge/ literatures called, and where did they come from? The Indo-Iranian speakers composed the Rig Veda. They came from what is now Iran and settled in what is now North Western India. The Vedic texts are the four Vedas, the Brahmanas, Aranyakas, the older Upanishads, and the Shrautasutras. 3. What are the priest/shaman structures and what are they called? Describe them, and what are their main traits (eg. can be married/not married, how were they elected, what was their main activities as understood by them? The term 'shaman' isn't applied to the Vedic priests by Mircea Eliade. That's because the Vedic priests as described in the literary sources don't meet the definition of Shamanism. Read more: 'Shamanism: Archaic Techniques of Ecstasy' by Mircea Eliade Princeton University Press, 2004 http://tinyurl.com/moojss 4. What, if any, defines its architecture? Give examples. The Vedic culture was agrarian in nature and pastoral, charactrerized by the herding of cattle. They lived in small villages along rivers such as the Indus, Yamuna, Ganga, and Saraswati. The Vedics during this time didn't have any temples or architecture. The oldest example of edifice architecture in India is the Lomas Rishi Cave in Barabar. Read more: Barabar Caves: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Barabar_Caves 5. Please name 10 sculptural examples and/or artworks that could define their main art/religious icons. Please name 10 other sculptural examples and/or artworks that you consider to be mistakenly attributed to Vedic culture. There are no sculptural or art examples from the Vedic period. The Vedic culture may be evidenced by the Ochre Coloured Pottery Culture and the Ghandara Grave Culture. The 'Buddha' statue came much later, after the invasion by Darius. 'The Art and Architecture of India' By Benjamin Rowley Penguin, 1953 6. In which period precisely do you place Vedic culture? The Vedic period was during the later part of the Iron Age. Some scholars place the Vedic period in the second and first millennia BCE, and continuing up to the 6th century BCE, up to the time of the historical Buddha. This is based almost totally on literary evidence. The Rig Vedic society share many characteristics with the early Iranians and Mittani cultures. Read more: Vedic Period: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Vedic_period 7. In which region(s) do you place it? The Vedic culture apparently centered in the northern and northwestern parts of the Indian subcontinent. It stretched from Ghandara to Anga, from the Himalayas down to the Vindhya. 8. Do they use astrology and if so what was it called, and what defines it from other forms of astrology in the region? Astrology came much later during the late Vedic period and the Gupta period. 9. What do you translate the word Ved to mean precisely? The word 'Ved' is akin to the Greek word 'gnos', meaning knowledge; special transcendental knowledge. This knowing is gnosis - it's pneumatic insight, not equivalent to knowledge about, and about - such as dictionary, formulaic, scholarly, or scientific knowledge.

What is its main language, and what is its writing system, and how do you delineate it from other languages in the region? Please be precise in your answer. The Vedic culture was composed of Indo-Iranian language speakers. Their language was archaic Sanskrit, but Pannini is considred to be post-Vedic. The Vedic culture had no written language. 12. Did they go to war and with whom, and did they have chariots or just on foot, and boats/ships, and of what kind? According to David Frawley, the Vedic people waged war among themselves and with the indigenous population. The Vedics had chariots with spoke wheels drawn by horses. The Vedic Aryans were cattle rustlers. 'Gods, Sages and Kings' by David Frawley Lotus Press, 1991 13. Did they have kings? What were they called (eg. like pharaohs in Egypt.) Chieftans, 'rajas'. 14. How many kingdoms were there roughly, and over which region? Who were the main Royal family names? There were sixteen Mahajanapadas. 15.

Part of the long continuum from the 1960's, starting of MIU in 1970's, projects of 1980's, and 'businesses' of the 1990's, the liquidations of the 2000's, and the death.

Hopefully they continue to open up and become even more forthright. May be even voluntarily publish current financial statements openly.

I heard the governors who've never had two nickels to rub together talk about monetizing, I read that not having resting rooms in the spas moved people through faster, how to take LMTs off the street, pay them less than USD 15/hr because they /want/ to be part of something new like Maharishi Ayurveda, and train them in all of about 2 hours. I read about buying the cheapest everything at WalMart for the spa treatment rooms. I saw the assumptions made about the peace palaces, how much money would flow through in each area /conservatively/. It all made me very ill. So, this is the TMO in its own writing.

Concerning the six of those 20 posts commenting on six posts of Barry's, a simple repost of one of them: - Sez Barry, demonstrating exactly the behavior we pointed out: dishonestly attempting to spin takedowns and mockery into meltdowns because we caught him lying again, and he has no other defense than to lie some more. - ...all six posts taking down Barry's lies amd standing on the record as the last word, because they were unrebuttable. (Oh, yes, and that includes takedowns of the two posts of his that he--knowingly falsely--claimed caused the nonexistent meltdown.) Bottom line: Barry is hideously frustrated by how easily and relentlessly he gets taken down and how helpless he is to rebut the takedowns. The only response he can come up with is the transparently false assertion that the takedowns constitute a meltdown. Pathetic. Where's Geezerfreak? It's about time for him to make an appearance and observe that I'm still taking down Barry's lies (as if this were an activity entirely independent of Barry lying). Typically the Geeze pops in to give Barry a hand--entirely coincidentally, you understand--when Barry's floundering desperately at the nadir of one of his losing streaks. You really need to learn to calm down, relax, and not get so wound-up by your own imaginings. Maybe take up meditation. I bet it would help you. I've been reading it for 15 years.

We parked in a lay by around the south side of the windmill, which takes you along the Fosse way up to the windmill and the circle. From images attached, please note there is something else there, on the south side, something which I can only describe as a key. My son and I, followed the path of the Fosse way, up to the windmill, but could not gain access this way. So we doubled back towards the entrance of the field where you need to move down 4 tramlines to follow the right one into the formation. However, by the time we got back to the entrance, it was starting to rain. It was already very late, so had to abandon going in. We met a couple who were going to brave it, but I did not hang around to see if they did! I am reminded of the way in which light is bent and refracted by a prism. What I find most interesting though, is the key. I think there is a BIG clue here; hopefully someone can get some aerial pictures of this formation.

Re: [FairfieldLife] Re: Vaj... how do you define Vedic culture?
Good answers Willy! Comments interwoven. On Jul 12, 2009, at 10:21 AM, WillyTex wrote: 4. What, if any, defines its architecture? Give examples. The Vedic culture was agrarian in nature and pastoral, charactrerized by the herding of cattle. They lived in small villages along rivers such as the Indus, Yamuna, Ganga, and Saraswati. The Vedics during this time didn't have any temples or architecture. The oldest example of edifice architecture in India is the Lomas Rishi Cave in Barabar. Read more: Barabar Caves: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Barabar_Caves 5. Please name 10 sculptural examples and/or artworks that could define their main art/religious icons. Please name 10 other sculptural examples and/or artworks that you consider to be mistakenly attributed to Vedic culture. There are no sculptural or art examples from the Vedic period. The Vedic culture may be evidenced by the Ochre Coloured Pottery Culture and the Ghandara Grave Culture. The 'Buddha' statue came much later, after the invasion by Darius. 'The Art and Architecture of India' By Benjamin Rowley Penguin, 1953 The aberration coined Sthapatya-veda is actually a recasting of indigenous Shaivite vastu and later re-appropriated indigenous building traditions. 6. In which period precisely do you place Vedic culture? The Vedic period was during the later part of the Iron Age. Some scholars place the Vedic period in the second and first millennia BCE, and continuing up to the 6th century BCE, up to the time of the historical Buddha. This is based almost totally on literary evidence. The Rig Vedic society share many characteristics with the early Iranians and Mittani cultures. Read more: Vedic Period: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Vedic_period 7. In which region(s) do you place it? The Vedic culture apparently centered in the northern and northwestern parts of the Indian subcontinent. It stretched from Ghandara to Anga, from the Himalayas down to the Vindhya. 8. Do they use astrology and if so what was it called, and what defines it from other forms of astrology in the region? Astrology came much later during the late Vedic period and the Gupta period. Actually this is another example of Vedic Brahmins re-appropriating and recasting earlier traditions as part of an attempt to fashion a mythical Vedism. The same with Ayurveda and other upa-vedas, all are derived from earlier upa-agamas, not the vedas.

[FairfieldLife] Pressure Builds Up For Cheney Probe.
I hope Eric Holder goes for it. Nothing I would love to see better than Cheney to get his just due. However there is the meme being circulated that we need to move on and that the country has to many problems to spend time on this. I disagree and indeed it is possible that the CIA itself could be circulating that meme. Definitely the Republicans would be suspect too. I think we can have an investigation and work on the nations problems at the same time. But there are those who fear that it will dig up the buried bodies and they'll be indicted. I say good and time for their karma to catch up.

Over the past few years I'v reseen John and Mary, Paris, Texas, The Adventurers, The King of Marvin Gardens, and several others I can't think of at the moment which, on first viewing, I didn't particularly like but now really liked.

[FairfieldLife] What to Expect On Dec. 21, 2012: The Moment of Ascension
What to Expect On Dec. 21, 2012: The Moment of Ascension (Excerpt from channeled message given by Cosmic Awareness in April 2009 - for more about Cosmic Awareness, see end of message.) More on Earth's Rotation and the Days of Darkness This Awareness is prepared to introduce a new understanding of what will occur during the time of Ascension, especially around the forecast date of December 21, 2012. The Alignment of the 7 Planetary Gateways From that which is the central sun of the galaxy, that which is Halcyon in the Pleiadian system, at that moment of the alignment of the 7 planetary gateways represented by the planets, the stars, there will be an alignment, a corridor directly from that which is the central planet to the planet earth. Earth is already moving forward towards this moment of alignment by adjusting and advancing many levels of consciousness, both in its own planetary consciousness as well as many of those Light Workers and Wanderers and beings who exist on the earthly plane at this time, and who have chosen to come onto the planet at this time to assist this process. When the Portals Open a Tsunami of Energy Will Hit Our Planet At that actual moment of complete alignment where the 7 gateways are opened, there will be an energetic force that will travel from the central sun to the planet earth, but the 7 gateways are the same gateways that the human soul either passes through as it descends into human form, or upon release of human form, passes through on the way to its greater expression of being. With the opening of these energy portals, these gateways, when the alignment occurs with the central sun, the force that will go through will be that force which will carry the planet to its higher frequencies. It will be as if a tsunami of energies that hit the planet at that time. It is for this reason that it is necessary for those who will ascend to have raised their consciousness to a point so that when the energies hit, they will simply ride the wave and come to the new shoreline. In this time, events can occur such as a time of darkness, the shifting of the North/South poles, the shifting of the planet, the turning over of the planet. Those who are of that higher level of consciousness, that higher frequency, will not be destroyed by the tsunami of cosmic energies and consciousness that will overwhelm the planet. They will be carried upwards or forwards to that new state of consciousness, that new level of vibration and frequency. Long Predicted Catastrophic Consequences Await the Masses Those who do not achieve that higher level of consciousness that will allow them to surf this energy wave will be affected most negatively by it. It is at this time that the catastrophic consequences that have for so long been predicted by so many will indeed affect a majority of the beings on the planet. Many will at that time leave physical existence through the death experience. This will become their way of removing themselves for there is no wish on their part to experience that which will come, as those who survive this period of time experience the reality of a new physical world, that being the energies of that planet which this Awareness has called Planet B in the past. (Note: Planet B is the remaining physical 3D planet and Planet A is the 4D/5D planet that ascends the planet will actually split into two different realities, frequencies and timelines.) Those who choose to simply leave will reenter spirit form and it will be their choice whether to continue existence on that which is Planet A or Planet B or any other dimension that they choose, for it is the choice on the spirit level that is relevant to what experience one would have in whatever dimension of consciousness one would choose. They would thus be free to make whatever choice they would wish to make. Those who survive the catastrophic consequence of a planet stopping its rotation, of its poles shifting, of even the planet tipping over on its axis, will find that they truly do live in another reality than that which was the norm such a short time before. The Coming Cosmic Tsunami and the Elite on Earth All that was will have been swept away, and they will be reduced to a most basic and primitive state. There will be those who will anticipate this event, who will have prepared for this event, and those are the ones this Awareness has called the Elite in the past. They will have with them those who would serve them, those who would be party to that experience, but there will be many who survive at the most primitive level on a planet that no longer is as it once was. This too could be a consequence for those who wish to experience this form of reality of a cosmic tsunami that would hit and will hit the planet at that time, but it is only one of the consequences, for there are other ways that one will pass through this experience, either by leaving the physical or by ascending on the crest of the
[FairfieldLife] Frank Rich on Palinism Phase II
In the aftermath of her decision to drop out and cash in, Palin's standing in the G.O.P. actually rose in the USA Today/Gallup poll. No less than 71 percent of Republicans said they would vote for her for president. NOTE: Only 23% of Americans identify themselves as Republican Republican http://pewresearch.org/databank/dailynumber/?NumberID=785 It's more likely that she will never get anywhere near the White House, and not just because of her own limitations. The Palinist real America is demographically doomed to keep shrinking. But the emotion it represents is disproportionately powerful for its numbers. It's an anger that Palin enjoyed stoking during her palling around with terrorists crusade against Obama on the campaign trail. It's an anger that's curdled into self-martyrdom since Inauguration Day. Its voice can be found in the postings at a Web site maintained by the fans of Mark Levin, the Obama hater who is, at this writing, the No.2 best-selling hardcover nonfiction writer in America. (Glenn Beck is No.1 in paperback nonfiction.) Politico surveyed them last week. Bottomline, do you know of any way we can remove these idiots before this country goes down the crapper? wrote one Levin fan. I WILL HELP!!! Should I buy a gun? Another called for a new American revolution, promising there will be blood. These are the cries of a constituency that feels disenfranchised by the powerful and the well-educated who gamed the housing bubble, by a news media it keeps being told is hateful, by the immigrants who have taken some of their jobs, by the African-American who has ended a white monopoly on the White House. Palin is their born avatar. She puts a happy, sexy face on ugly emotions, and she can solidify her followers' hold on a G.O.P. that has no leaders with the guts or alternative vision to stand up to them or to her.

Many people habitually imbibe drugs legally, such as caffeine or alcohol, a socially acceptable drugs. One of the reasons Ayurvedic and Chinese drug companies should be regulated (but not necessarily banned) is because it's not unusual for third world drug companies to use sub-standard product, like herbs harvested from tainted industrial sites, or Ayurvedic herbs discarded as unusable by other Ayurvedic pharmaceutical manufacturers.

Then there's Withania Somnifera (found in some preps, especially the ones for controlling vata), which will knock you out like a dose of barbiturates. AV uses lots of herbs, with and without psycho active properties, though probably the best known is ephedera, still known as som in the Himalayas, especially Pakistan and Afghanistan. It's a small shrub which produces a greenish red drink. The shrub matches the description of the soma plant, and it comes from the area where the Aryans were known to have lived before they invaded India and brought the Vedas with them. It contains ephedrine, the base chemical for making crystal meth. Probably a few others as well, I've not bothered to look. Bottom line is, AV is a lot more relaxed about psychoactive properties than modern western society.

In reality, all foods are drugs (per se) we're taking, although, of course, not always with profound medical or psychotropic properties-- but all become part and parcel of the human physiology once ingested and digested. This is a level of use, for the most part, the allopathic establishment does not see, understand or comprehend in praxis, in general, in regards to foods. Furthermore, the tendency of certain psycho-physiological types to become addicted to certain food types is largely missed. Weil's works, esp. the aforementioned From Chocolate to Morphine and his The Marriage of the Sun and the Moon, are important exceptions to this allopathic blindspot.

[FairfieldLife] The Maharishi Purusha Capital
The Maharishi Purusha Capital of the Western World: Reflecting on progress, setting construction timeline by Global Good News staff writer Global Good News Translate This Article 11 July 2009 On 9 July 2009, a special presentation on the Maharishi Purusha Capital of the Western World, West Virginia, USA, was broadcast live from MERU, Holland, International Capital of the Global Country of World Peace, and from the Maharishi Patanjali Golden Dome, Fairfield, Iowa, USA. Please also see Part I and Part II of a Global Good News article from Guru Purnima 2008, which describes Maharishi Mahesh Yogi's vision for the Purusha Capital of the Western World, introduces the leaders of the project, and recounts the process of locating property and drawing a site plan. Following a detailed introduction to the Maharishi Purusha Capital of the Western World by Dr Bevan Morris, Prime Minister of the Global Country of World Peace*, Raja Chancellor, Purusha Raja** of universal domain, who has been an integral member of the project's team, recounted Maharishi's decision to establish the Purusha Capital. Raja Chancellor said: 'On 1 August 2007, Maharishi began a series of about 20 conference calls with Maharishi Purusha Programme groups around the world, which lasted until the end of that December. On these calls Maharishi poured out knowledge and inspiration in response to the profound experiences of higher states of consciousness' revealed by Purusha. 'Shortly after the start of these calls,' Raja Chancellor continued, 'Maharishi requested 192 Purusha to adopt and silently nourish 192 countries; and when he heard that each of the 192 countries of the world had one Purusha associated with them, he was thrilled, and he inaugurated Purusha's Administration through Silence—Global Raam Raj.' Maharishi then determined that, in order to provide Purusha with the perfect location and atmosphere for attending to their countries, it was necessary to establish the Purusha Capital of the Western World. Maharishi announced his desire to establish the Purusha Capital on 8 September 2007. Raja Chancellor went on to present slides of the site in West Virginia, and preliminary steps in the construction process. Among the slides were some featuring road construction, the clearing of trees, and beautiful views. In addition, he showed a complete site plan of the Purusha Capital that indicated the location of the residences, dining hall, meditation hall, organic greenhouses, and course facilities. Following Raja Chancellor's overview, Purusha Raja Rafael David, who has contributed greatly to the building project, discussed upcoming construction plans for the Capital in detail. The most immediate plan, he said, is to house 40 Purusha members at the new Capital within five separate residential buildings—each to hold eight Purusha. 'In this way,' he explained, 'we hope to establish momentum in the project.' Once the road is complete, he continued, construction will begin on the Purusha Raja residential building, which will serve as a palace for Maharaja Adhiraj Rajaram, First Ruler of the Global Country of World Peace, as well as an accommodation for Dr Bevan Morris and Raja John Hagelin, Raja of Invincible America. The construction phase after that, Raja Rafael said, will involve building 10 more residential buildings for Purusha—totaling 15 buildings for 120 Purusha. * In the coming days, Global Good News will feature a complete account of Dr Bevan Morris's opening speech on this occasion. Upcoming articles in the series will also feature speeches by Dr Eike Hartmann, Minister of Architecture; Raja Bob LoPinto, Raja of Invincible South Africa and leader of the Purusha Capital project; and finally, Maharaja Adhiraj Rajaraam. ** Maharishi has explained that Purusha means the Self, the quality of infinite silence of the Unified Field of Natural Law. Maharishi designed the Maharishi Purusha Programme for men who wish to dedicate themselves fulltime to the most rapid pace of evolution and to creating world peace, through extended group practice of the Transcendental Meditation Sidhi Programme; and through their administration through silence, fulfilling the goals of the Global Country of World Peace in 192 countries. Several members of Purusha are Rajas of the Global Country of World Peace with universal domain. © Copyright 2009 Global Good News®

Fallacy of quoting out of context
The practice of quoting out of context, sometimes referred to as
contextomy or quote mining is a logical fallacy and type of false
attribution in which a passage is removed from its surrounding matter in such a
way as to distort its intended meaning.
Arguments based on this fallacy typically take two forms. As a straw man
argument, which is frequently found in politics, it involves quoting an
opponent out of context in order to misrepresent their position (typically to
make it seem more simplistic or extreme) in order to make it easier to refute.
As an appeal to authority, it involves quoting an authority on the subject out
of context, in order to misrepresent that authority as supporting some
position.

Thanks for the answers. I will get back to you on this soon.

Vedic culture is that culture that composed the Vedas? 1. What are its 10 main gods/deities? Indra, Agni, Soma, Varuna, Aryaman, Surya, Vayu, Prithivi, Ushas, Aditi and Saraswati. And who are those three hundred and three, and three thousand and three gods? Read more: From: Willytex Subject: How many gods are there really?

What is its main 5-10 poems/stories/oral knowledge/ literatures called, and where did they come from? The Indo-Iranian speakers composed the Rig Veda. They came from what is now Iran and settled in what is now North Western India. The Vedic texts are the four Vedas, the Brahmanas, Aranyakas, the older Upanishads, and the Shrautasutras. 3. What are the priest/shaman structures and what are they called? Describe them, and what are their main traits (eg. can be married/not married, how were they elected, what was their main activities as understood by them? The term 'shaman' isn't applied to the Vedic priests by Mircea Eliade. That's because the Vedic priests as described in the literary sources don't meet the definition of Shamanism.

Give examples. The Vedic culture was agrarian in nature and pastoral, charactrerized by the herding of cattle. They lived in small villages along rivers such as the Indus, Yamuna, Ganga, and Saraswati. The Vedics during this time didn't have any temples or architecture. The oldest example of edifice architecture in India is the Lomas Rishi Cave in Barabar. Read more: Barabar Caves: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Barabar_Caves http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Barabar_Caves 5. Please name 10 sculptural examples and/or artworks that could define their main art/religious icons. Please name 10 other sculptural examples and/or artworks that you consider to be mistakenly attributed to Vedic culture. There are no sculptural or art examples from the Vedic period. The Vedic culture may be evidenced by the Ochre Coloured Pottery Culture and the Ghandara Grave Culture. The 'Buddha' statue came much later, after the invasion by Darius. 'The Art and Architecture of India' By Benjamin Rowley Penguin, 1953 6. In which period precisely do you place Vedic culture? The Vedic period was during the later part of the Iron Age. Some scholars place the Vedic period in the second and first millennia BCE, and continuing up to the 6th century BCE, up to the time of the historical Buddha. This is based almost totally on literary evidence. The Rig Vedic society share many characteristics with the early Iranians and Mittani cultures. Read more: Vedic Period: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Vedic_period http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Vedic_period 7. In which region(s) do you place it? The Vedic culture apparently centered in the northern and northwestern parts of the Indian subcontinent. It stretched from Ghandara to Anga, from the Himalayas down to the Vindhya. 8. Do they use astrology and if so what was it called, and what defines it from other forms of astrology in the region? Astrology came much later during the late Vedic period and the Gupta period. 9. What do you translate the word Ved to mean precisely? The word 'Ved' is akin to the Greek word 'gnos', meaning knowledge; special transcendental knowledge. This knowing is gnosis - it's pneumatic insight, not equivalent to knowledge about, and about - such as dictionary, formulaic, scholarly, or scientific knowledge.

What is its main language, and what is its writing system, and how do you delineate it from other languages in the region? Please be precise in your answer. The Vedic culture was composed of Indo-Iranian language speakers. Their language was archaic Sanskrit, but Pannini is considred to be post-Vedic. The Vedic culture had no written language. 12. Did they go to war and with whom, and did they have chariots or just on foot, and boats/ships, and of what kind? According to David Frawley, the Vedic people waged war among themselves and with the indigenous population. The Vedics had chariots with spoke

[FairfieldLife] Re: The vampire worshippers of Pune, or Advanced Cultures of the Past
(snip) For the record, HHDL has explicitly stated: if you find that a guru is not living up to what he preaches or expects of others: sexual affairs, business improprieties, lineal perversions, etc.: these need to be made known AND public. (snip) There will alway be real spiritual teachers, the phonies or poseurs and those that lie in between. People deserve to know 'who is who'. So, if someone finds, that His Holiness Maharishi Mahesh Yogi, was not for them, why wouldn't they just move on? If they found another spiritual teacher, such as the Dalai Lama, why would they spend, so much time, focusing on His Holiness Maharishi Mahesh Yogi? When someone became as well known as Maharishi became, I am sure there will always be rumors and innuendos, surrounding their success... There is always those who are tremendously jealous of the success of another I wonder, how many people Dalai Lama, has been able to raise to the level of enlightenment, when he himself, is adamant that he is 'not enlightened'...which I heard him say, and which I observed when I was in his presence... The Buddhist Religion, is based on dogma, as much as the 'Christian Religion, or the Muslim Religion...it's just one more dogmatic religion, for the masses, to basically keep them ignorant and superficial... I attended the Buddhist Retreat near Madison, where the Dalai Lama visits, and was not impressed with the teaching there...it felt exactly the same, as a Christian Church...rigid and stifling. They get dressed up in strange suits, beads, the whole 9 yards...same as in Christianity...foolish people! Buddha never would go along with this stuff, just as Jesus would find these Christian Churches, laughable... Why is Vaj, so obsessed with the life and teachings of His Holiness Maharishi Mahesh Yogi? Just wonderin'... Robert.

Vaj, until you tell us exactly what drugs you are talking about, and the effect of the drugs you fear and want US to fear about MAPI drugs, I'll assume this is just another bogus rant against the TMO and we'll add it to your growing list of alarmist troll concerns about the dangers of TM. Fear mongering about TM has become your reason d'etre. Get a life. You sound like Bush crying wolf about Saddam.

No, He never owned or operated such a company and you are a perpetual Buddhist liar. It's known in the US as MAPI. He's operated these drug companies primarily out of India. Exactly what substances do you imagine are in MAPI drugs? Can you provide documentation that proves there are drugs in MAPI products listed as controlled substances and forbidden by the FDA? Waiting... Because it's an Ayurvedic drug company, it's able to slip under the radar of the FDA RD. Just because the drugs are made from herbo- mineral compounds doesn't mean they are not drugs. Many people habitually imbibe drugs legally, such as caffeine or alcohol, a socially acceptable drugs. One of the reasons Ayurvedic and Chinese drug companies should be regulated (but not necessarily banned) is because it's not unusual for third world drug companies to use sub-standard product, like herbs harvested from tainted industrial sites, or Ayurvedic herbs discarded as unusable by other Ayurvedic pharmaceutical manufacturers.

I think we can have an investigation and work on the nations problems at the same time. But there are those who fear that it will dig up the buried bodies and they'll be indicted. I say good and time for their karma to catch up. I suspect Obama encouraged Holder to proceed.

My disbelief in their non-human origin doesn't detract my appreciation of them. As it happens, I think aliens is the *least* likely explanation for the origin of crop circles. But there's some awfully interesting data of various kinds that seems to support the idea that not all of them were made by humans. If they weren't all made by humans, and none of them was made by aliens, what does that leave us with? Damned if I know. Also, if they are made by people, they must be quite talented to make such things in such short time and, who is paying for such talent? I would think they could get a day job with such talent that would make them some serious money. I noticed one small point in the last one that was unsymetrical but they are some works of art really.
