One comment stuck in my mind: they've proved they are all mutants [because of their speed]. We all agreed they were outstanding performers but from *OUR* perspective it got kinda old to hear nothing but fast [that could only be played by mutants] riffs over and over. Real musicians appreciate subtlety. L I wonder, how much does it mean, that as a marquis, Segovia perhaps could afford highest quality instruments?

[FairfieldLife] Mind and Life XXIV
Mind and Life XXIV: An Insider View By David Vago, Ph.D. I woke up the morning of April 24, 2012 thinking, “There will not be many days like this in my life. I will be giving a talk to His Holiness, the Dalai Lama, along with five of my Contemplative Science colleagues and friends.” My heart fills with joy and gratitude when I think about the opportunity. The six of us represented hundreds of young investigators, like ourselves, all inspired by the Dalai Lama. The meeting was particularly significant because, after 25 years of dialogue with His Holiness, it was the first time junior-level investigators were given the opportunity to share their research with him. We represent a new generation of scientists who are willing to examine some of the more difficult and even taboo aspects of deep contemplative transformation. As such, we are right in the center of an emerging paradigm shift for science. All aspects of basic and clinical science and society are now infused with mindfulness. Mindfulness represents more than its literal definition. It represents the paradigm shift towards investigating the mind from the first-person perspective—the new introspection. It is the key to the door of consciousness for all scientists to explore and the public to embrace for mental health. His Holiness’ Feedback The six of us were chosen to represent the Francisco J. Varela Awards program, the primary catalyst for seeding the field with young scientists investigating contemplative practice. Each of us brought something unique to the table from all across the globe. The room was filled with board members and guests surrounding us like proud parents and transmitting their wisdom. His Holiness was very attentive and present with each one of us as we took turns presenting our most relevant research in the short amount of time allotted. Although brief, the conference was a humbling honor. One by one, we filled our 20 minutes completely, summarizing our findings in only a few slides, and the feedback from His Holiness was invaluable. To each of us, he provided some sense of recognition and appeared to place high importance on the work we all are doing. I kept thinking that if His Holiness thought my models of Mindfulness are “quite good,” I should be able to provide my reviewers with that reference! He ended our time together with a lasting set of strongly emphasized remarks that none of us will be able to dismiss. With a firm finger he pointed to each one of us and led the charge like a football coach before the big game. He said that each one of us is responsible for reducing suffering in this world. We must continue doing rigorous research for the benefit of the world. I guess we know what we’ll be doing for the next 35 years! Truly inspiring.

[FairfieldLife] TM's biggest problem?
An âyurvedic technician told me that surprisingly many TMers, like myself, have high blood pressure. The obvious reason is that many people here in Finland, and probably many other countries also, started doing TM in the hopes of being able to reduce their BP medication, and stuff. I don't believe TM helps a lot if ones hypertension is due to being genetically predisposed to it. I feel like some component of my BP regulation system (which, I believe is quite complicated) is especially weak, because my BP is like a yo-yo: it seems to skyrocket for almost no reason at all! I think Maharishi hoped that TM would make healthy people more healthy, but the problem seems to be that people who feel themselves to be healthy usually might not have any interest in meditation?!

(t0 be continued) So, after Maharishi had traveled around the world, several times... He was about to return to India...he had been teaching for exactly 12 years... It just so happened around the same time, that 'The Beatles' were introduced to TM and to Maharishi... After Maharishi's introduction to the Beatles, nothing was ever the same again...

Their charge was that TM was religious based, and should 'Not' be taught in 'Public Schools'... Man, was Jerry and Maharishi pissed off!!! All that work to 'Scientifically Verify' and all the S.C.I. work to show it as a 'Science'...was now being 'Smashed with the charge of: Religion'...same as any other religion... So, the judgement came down, against the TM movement, and that was the end of that, being taught in schools across the United States; when it was going so well for the test schools in New Jersey, at that time...which was in around June, 1977...

[FairfieldLife] Re: TM's biggest problem?
Is that the AHRQ's report? I couldn't find that particular chart in the report, but one criticism leveled at the report by TM researchers is that they didn't include dozens of studies on TM and yet didn't mention that they even considered those studies in order to reject them in their analysis, despite being told about them and given a copy of them for review (Collected Papers Volume 5 was entirely ignored even though they were given a copy). Other criticisms can be found here: http://www.TruthAboutTM.org/truth/TMResearch/RebuttalofAHRQReview/index.cfm A more recent meta-analysis of TM and BP was published a few years later than included 9 studies instead of only five. Naturally, since it found results different than the AHRQ study, it is touted as refuting the AHRQ analysis. http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/18311126 L --- In FairfieldLife@yahoogroups.com, Vaj vajradhatu@... wrote: On Jul 15, 2012, at 8:38 AM, cardemaister wrote: An �yurvedic technician told me that surprisingly many TMers, like myself, have high blood pressure.

I don't believe TM helps a lot if ones hypertension is due to being genetically predisposed to it. I feel like some component of my BP regulation system (which, I believe is quite complicated) is especially weak, because my BP is like a yo-yo: it seems to skyrocket for almost no reason at all! I think Maharishi hoped that TM would make healthy people more healthy, but the problem seems to be that people who feel themselves to be healthy usually might not have any interest in meditation?! In an independent systematic review of BP and different meditative and body-based interventions, Transcendental Meditation was the worst intervention for lowering BP. Since TM mantras are imbalanced they tend to increase pitta and vata, thus they will tend to increase BP (from an Ayurvedic perspective): https://www.box.com/shared/yqhm9ex6b0 The only intervention that was worse has �health education�. Progressive Muscle Relaxation (PMR) was about the same as Transcendental Meditation. The best interventions are hatha yoga and Tai Chi. 1. Tai Chi 2. Yoga + biofeedback 3. Qi gong 4. Mindfulness based cognitive therapy 5. Biofeedback 6. Yoga 7. Relaxation Response 8. Buddhist Meditation 9. Rest/relaxation 10. Mantra meditation 11. Transcendental Meditation Current science supports the use of CoQ-10, Fish Oil and Vitamin D for lowering BP without the use of meds.

Judas expected Jesus to 'get everyone out of the Roman occupation of Israel...so, when Jesus was tortured and killed, that really was a shock to all who were there... The earth itself trembled, and the rains came with lightning and thunder Because Judas was regarded as a traitor in history, Maharishi had no problem in relating and attracting other souls who had similar predicaments, karmically...
