[FairfieldLife] Russia moves nuclear missiles into Cuba

2012-08-03 Thread Vaj


In 2001 I, as the President of the Russian Federation and the  
supreme commander, deemed it advantageous to withdraw the radio- 
electronic center Lourdes from Cuba. In exchange for this, George  
Bush, the then U.S. president, has assured me that this decision  
would become the final confirmation that the Cold War was over and  
both of our states, getting rid of the relics of the Cold War, will  
start building a new relationship based on cooperation and  
transparency. In particular, Bush has convinced me that the U.S.  
missile defense system will never be deployed in Eastern Europe.


 The Russian Federation has fulfilled all terms of the agreement.  
And even more. I shut down not only the Cuban Lourdes but also Kamran  
in Vietnam. I shut them down because I gave my word of honor. I, like  
a man, has kept my word. What have the Americans done? The Americans  
are not responsible for their own words. It is no secret that in  
recent years, the U.S. created a buffer zone around Russia, involving  
in this process not only the countries of Central Europe, but also  
the Baltic states, Ukraine and the Caucasus. The only response to  
this could be an asymmetric expansion of the Russian military  
presence abroad, particularly in Cuba. In Cuba, there are convenient  
bays for our reconnaissance and warships, a network of the so-called  
jump airfields. With the full consent of the Cuban leadership, on  
May 11 of this year, our country has not only resumed work in the  
electronic center of Lourdes, but also placed the latest mobile  
strategic NUCLEAR MISSILES (emphasis added) Oak on the island. They  
did not want to do it the amicable way, now let them deal with this,  
Putin said.

   maintaining the meditative purity of domes, while you know and have 
   talked to the students that were tricked into violating that sacred space 
   (for those involved in the dome programs); I've heard their hopes and 
   their fears, as I spoke to them while they were still doing it, and 
   afterwards. How do you handle this same person recommending abortion for 
   some couples evolution? 
   
   And then there is the demonic confrontations...
   
   Then as time passes, you forget most of this, only to run into that same 
   person again, weaving the same old patterns (to your perception) once

   If you don't get that you're his target audience Feste, then maybe it's

Judy, I accept your analysis of this. Point on. Very clear. I retract my flawed

to 'me'. But when I put it out there, that is not the case.

  I was pointing out what I thought was a veiled ad hominem by
  Judy.
 
 It wasn't veiled, it was right up front.
 
  This is not necessarily absolutely clear because normal
  language is rather loose logically. What I did, whether it
  was in error or not, had nothing to do with the context of
  the argument she was having with Vaj. Logic is just a set of
  rules, it has no content, any content will do; if the rules
  work, deductions can be made, if not, falsehoods reveal
  themselves. Ad hominem is an informal fallacy; strictly
  speaking it is a kind of non sequitur.
 
 Xeno, there is ad hominem, and there is the ad hominem
 fallacy. Not all ad hominems are fallacies; it depends on
 the context in which they appear. Ad hominem reasoning in
 an argument--argumentum ad hominem--is a fallacy. A negative
 personal remark not used as reasoning in an argument is not
 a fallacy, it's just a negative personal remark.
 
 What I said to Vaj was the latter, not the former.
 
 snip
  Precisely. Perhaps this was an impish point on my part, having 
  received such points from Judy from time to time, my
  interjection in her argument with Vaj might be construed to be
  a veiled ad hominem directed at her. Judy said responding to 
  Vaj, 'You are not in any position to complain about ad
  hominems, poetic or otherwise'. It does not matter what
  position he is in, he still may complain, whether it does
  good or ill. I consider Judy's comment to be an ad hominem,
  and just that, nothing more, nothing about context.
 
 You said it was an ad homimen *fallacy* because you thought
 I was attempting to use it to refute his statement, Poetic
 ad hominems are still ad hominems.
 
 Of course that is not what I was doing. There's not a thing
 wrong with Vaj's statement, nor does what I said constitute
 an attempt at refutation. It was an observation about Vaj's
 hypocrisy, because he himself makes frequent use of ad
 hominems. It was a negative personal remark, an ad hominem,
 but not an argumentum ad hominem.
 
 That he still may complain is a non sequitur. Of course
 he may, but it's hypocritical of him to do so, which was
 my point to start with.
 
 You say Nothing about context, but of course it *was*
 about context. It's just that you got the context wrong.

some form of direct seeing (of ultimate reality)?


If it wasn't real, what does that mean if we encounter similar  
situations later in life? Are we wiser in response to what we  
learned, or do we ignore what we've seen and not act in ways that are

Each person will respond very differently. For example one might

someone who never was, less so.




 Then as time passes, you forget most of this, only to run into

We know what you do Vaj.


I doubt that, because most of the meaty discussion of RWC and WTS

[FairfieldLife] Gullible Seeker Syndrome

2012-08-03 Thread turquoiseb
I'm going to chop out the specifics in your comments,
Vaj, and reply to them as the more generic statements
they are. This is *not* a TM-specific issue.

--- In FairfieldLife@yahoogroups.com, Vaj vajradhatu@... wrote:

 The key trick was look at me, I'm an enlightened man...

That's the key trick in almost all of these kinds of
situations. The trick works best on communities of seekers
in which no one ever seems to achieve the goal that they
espouse. When people have *heard about* enlightenment 
for many years but never experienced it themselves, and
in many cases never seen a living embodiment of it, they
become suckers for anyone who breezes into town wearing
Narcissistic Personality Disorder-induced charisma, and
just *believe* them. If you question them about it, the
conversation usually goes like this:

Me: So how do you know that this person was enlightened?
Them: Why, he (or she) said so, of course.
Me: But how do you know that he (she) was telling you
the truth?
Them: That's easy -- the enlightened never lie.
Me: But how do you know this to be true?
Them: Both my former teacher and my current one said so.
Me: But how do you know that the people saying this knew
what they were talking about?
Them: Because they were enlightened, silly. 
 repeat ad nauseum 

 ...and based on that faulty information (from my POV) they 
 preceded. I guess really the issue here is that they were 
 part of an organisation that placed great emphasis on alleged 
 higher states of consciousness...

Without ever showing anyone a legitimate example of them. 

 In such a case [claiming to be enlightened], the onus falls 
 on the integrity, honesty and maturity of the guru, as he's 
 taking responsibility for his students.

However, if the person is suffering from NPD and only *thinks*
that he or she is enlightened, they don't feel this sense of
responsibility. One of the primary symptoms of narcissism is
the inability to care for other people or feel responsibility
for them; narcissists only pretend to. 

 ...the problem is, 'what happens when da guru ain't 
 enlightened?' ;-)

Or not even close? 

The problem, as I see it, is gullibility. Seekers are 
in many cases so *desperate* for someone to tell them
what to do to realize their own enlightenment that they
will believe almost anyone who claims to be able to do
that. 

They hear sales pitches like My method is the fastest
method ever devised for realizing enlightenment, and
it NEVER EVEN OCCURS TO THEM to ask the obvious 
question: Oh yeah? Show me some of your students who 
have become enlightened as a result of doing what you 
told them.

 Now while it didn't go as badly as say Rev. Jones or 
 Rajneeshpuram, I'd hope you can see that a similar seed 
 exists in these very different circumstances. So my hope 
 would be that we become wiser - and hopefully more 
 compassionate in action - from seeing these spiritual 
 pathologies acted out. Then we need not be enablers or  
 victims any longer, just wiser to the ways of the world.

I completely agree with your use of the terms spiritual
pathologies and enablers. 

...
 If it wasn't real, what does that mean if we encounter similar  
 situations later in life? Are we wiser in response to what we  
 learned, or do we ignore what we've seen and not act in ways 
 that are helpful?

My experience is that those who respond to narcissistic
charisma in one spiritual teacher will do so over and over
again, seemingly without learning a damned thing. And along
the way they'll vehemently deny that any of their decisions
to follow people they no longer consider good teachers were
flawed, or that the teachers themselves were flawed. They'll 
trot out the enabler language, and say that they made 
the right decision at the time, denying vehemently that
either they or the teacher in question ever made a Bad
Decision. 

A psychologist friend of mine points out that this is the 
narcissism speaking; the enablers are simply aping the mindset 
they saw in the teacher. They picked up the narcissism from 
them, and now act it out in the same ways they witnessed.

Subj: A Special Message for Fairfield Iowa: The Heart of Politics for America

 


08/03/2012

 

 

A special message to the Transcendental Meditation organization, the Fairfield 
Iowa community and leaders of religious and spiritual organizations worldwide,

 

Over the past 10,000 years or so a patriarchal world has dominated the 
consciousness of humanity. 

 

Women have suffered greatly from this. Men have shown the world over and over 
again that they cannot create world peace based on a patriarchal system.

 

A balance is necessary. As we move into astrological signatures to open up 
portals of light to eliminate small thinking, it is vital that everyone remain 
open to new ideas and implement them as soon as possible to avoid more pain and 
suffering in the family of humanity.

 

Therefore, I am asking the Transcendental Meditation organization to 
immediately train 1,000 women to chant the Vedas to represent the female side 
of creation. 

 

This will soften the hard edges of ignorance that man has created for himself. 

 

The Transcendental Meditation organization, Catholic Church (Vatican) and the 
Brahman caste of India as well as many other religious organizations have cut 
off the female vibration of life.

 

This creates imbalance in the subtle planes of existence and stress and strain 
are the result. War is still breaking out here and there like in Syria.

 

The Fairfield community has let the ball drop at the mercy of the TMO. It is 
time to act instead of claiming everything is perfect the way it is.

 

Therefore, I am asking that someone create a petition in Fairfield and get as 
many signatures as possible to have 1,000 women chanting the Vedas as soon as 
possible to create balance in the collective consciousness of the world.

 

Someone: Start a petition that can be handed over to the leaders of the TMO. If 
they don't want to do this than someone there with some money can find a way to 
start the training. 

 

And, the women do not have to be just from India.

 

Even if Mitt Romney does not pick a female VP and Hillary Clinton is still not 
by Barack’s side in this next election, the higher intelligence's of the 
universe will find a way to help bring in a softer energy. 

 

It is going to be a lot easier if she is invited to the dance. If she is not 
then hell could break loose over the next several months as the adjustments are 
being made from elsewhere than planet earth.

 

The upcoming dates of August 26th as well as September 18th (Uranus square 
Pluto) shows a lot of stress will be released.Mark these dates on your 
calendars. From August 17th through October 1st just about anything is possible 
to pry open the doors of ignorance. 

 

To allow a balance of male and female energies.

 

I am always available to talk as my phone is on the top of my webpage. 

 

Wishing everyone peace, joy, perfect health in your lives.

 

Sincerely,

Lou Valentino

 The key trick was look at me, I'm an enlightened man...

That's the key trick in almost all of these kinds of
situations. The trick works best on communities of seekers
in which no one ever seems to achieve the goal that they
espouse. When people have *heard about* enlightenment
for many years but never experienced it themselves, and
in many cases never seen a living embodiment of it, they
become suckers for anyone who breezes into town wearing
Narcissistic Personality Disorder-induced charisma, and
just *believe* them. If you question them about it, the
conversation usually goes like this:

Me: So how do you know that this person was enlightened?
Them: Why, he (or she) said so, of course.
Me: But how do you know that he (she) was telling you
the truth?
Them: That's easy -- the enlightened never lie.
Me: But how do you know this to be true?
Them: Both my former teacher and my current one said so.
Me: But how do you know that the people saying this knew
what they were talking about?
Them: Because they were enlightened, silly.
 repeat ad nauseum 


In this case, there was the rather tentative Marshy said so...well  
kinda...until the court case when M. said No! (he's not enlightened).




 ...and based on that faulty information (from my POV) they
 preceded. I guess really the issue here is that they were
 part of an organisation that placed great emphasis on alleged
 higher states of consciousness...

Without ever showing anyone a legitimate example of them.


At that time, many of us actually believed the research which claimed  
to be examples of such changes! Little did we know that independent  
experts had, as early as the 80's, already shown most of these claims  
were wrong or very exaggerated at best. And given there was no  
transparency, no one even bothered to tell any of us about these  
independent views. We were a deliberately constructed vacuum.





 In such a case [claiming to be enlightened], the onus falls
 on the integrity, honesty and maturity of the guru, as he's
 taking responsibility for his students.

However, if the person is suffering from NPD and only *thinks*
that he or she is enlightened, they don't feel this sense of
responsibility. One of the primary symptoms of narcissism is
the inability to care for other people or feel responsibility
for them; narcissists only pretend to.


Precisely, good point, esp. in this case since RWC does fit quite of  
few of the criteria.





 ...the problem is, 'what happens when da guru ain't
 enlightened?' ;-)

Or not even close?

The problem, as I see it, is gullibility. Seekers are
in many cases so *desperate* for someone to tell them
what to do to realize their own enlightenment that they
will believe almost anyone who claims to be able to do
that.


Well and consider RWC, with his MFA had quite the stage show. In  
retrospect the demonic confrontation thing could have been straight  
out of some charismatic southern church.



They hear sales pitches like My method is the fastest
method ever devised for realizing enlightenment, and
it NEVER EVEN OCCURS TO THEM to ask the obvious
question: Oh yeah? Show me some of your students who
have become enlightened as a result of doing what you
told them.

 Now while it didn't go as badly as say Rev. Jones or
 Rajneeshpuram, I'd hope you can see that a similar seed
 exists in these very different circumstances. So my hope
 would be that we become wiser - and hopefully more
 compassionate in action - from seeing these spiritual
 pathologies acted out. Then we need not be enablers or
 victims any longer, just wiser to the ways of the world.

I completely agree with your use of the terms spiritual
pathologies and enablers.

...
 If it wasn't real, what does that mean if we encounter similar
 situations later in life? Are we wiser in response to what we
 learned, or do we ignore what we've seen and not act in ways
 that are helpful?

My experience is that those who respond to narcissistic
charisma in one spiritual teacher will do so over and over
again, seemingly without learning a damned thing. And along
the way they'll vehemently deny that any of their decisions
to follow people they no longer consider good teachers were
flawed, or that the teachers themselves were flawed. They'll
trot out the enabler language, and say that they made
the right decision at the time, denying vehemently that
either they or the teacher in question ever made a Bad
Decision.


That certainly sounds like Ann, from my POV any way.

Interesting how Robin never seems to interact with her. What's up  
with that?

That's a silly comment. He nailed quite a few, but he couldn't exactly go
hog wild and yet retain secrecy. It's amazing he was able to keep it as
secret as he did. I believe that may be why he placed such emphasis on
secrecy and confidentiality in general. Those in positions of authority knew
things on a need to know basis. Neil Paterson wouldn't tell you what brand

I have a quote from one of Maharishi's
lesser-known videotapes. In it he says:

Let's face it, I fucked `em all. I mean, that's what 
I do. That's why I went to school. I mean, they're 
always there – and I don't know what I'm apologizing 
for, so sometimes I fuck `em. I go into the room and 
they're so great looking, you know...and they feel 
great and they smell great...you know, and I could 
be just on the street or stop at a stop light or go 
into an elevator or there's a beautiful girl. I don't 
know...I mean, that's it – it makes my day – makes 
me feel like I'm gonna live forever. As far as I'm 
concerned, with what I'd like to have done at this

more but I got no regrets – Jesus – aahhh... maybe 
that means I don't love them. Maybe that means I 
don't love you. I don't know. Nobody's gonna tell 
me I don't like `em very much.

[FairfieldLife] Is your vegetariansim a mask for an eating disorder?

2012-08-03 Thread turquoiseb
Fascinating study, one that doesn't surprise me, either about
vegetarians or other kinds of food trippers -- those who stick to a
rigid diet of any kind.
Vegetarianism, Eating Disorder Study Reveals Worrisome Relationship
Among Women  I can't eat that, sorry.
If you're a vegetarian, that's a refrain you're probably familiar  with.
Food abounds -- at work, at social gatherings -- but you don't  partake
because of your dietary restrictions. That mystery hors d'oeuvre  or
greasy teriyaki stick? Thanks but no thanks.

There are many valid reasons to be a vegetarian (see: the  environment,
your health, and the dismal state of the meat industry, for  starters).
But what if you go vegetarian to help disguise and aid an  eating
disorder?

New research suggests a large percentage of women with eating disorders
may be doing just that.

Women suffering from eating disorders are four times more likely to  be
vegetarian than women without eating disorders, according to a recent
study published
http://www.andjrnl.org/article/S2212-2672%2812%2900627-2/abstract  in
the Journal of the Academy of Nutrition and Dietetics.

The researchers found that 52 percent of women with a history of  eating
disorders had been vegetarians at some point in their lives. In 
contrast, only 12 percent of women without eating disorders had 
experimented with a vegetarian diet.

For clinicians who work with eating disorder patients, the results of
the study were not surprising.

Going vegetarian can be another way to cut out a food category, or a 
number of food categories, if you become a vegan, Vanessa Kane-Alves, a
registered dietician with Boston Children's Hospital's Eating Disorders 
Program, told The Huffington Post. It makes it easier when people ask 
you questions about where those foods have gone. It's a more socially 
acceptable way to restrict foods.

Especially as a teen, parents might be less apt to argue with you for
not eating, she added.

Kane-Alves, who was not involved in the study, emphasized that the 
research doesn't argue vegetarianism causes eating disorders, or is 
unhealthy. Instead, it suggests vegetarianism can be a symptom of an 
eating disorder for some women.

The takeaway of this study is, as a clinician, if you have a patient 
who tells you they want to be a vegetarian, it's worth exploring that 
more than you would have otherwise, she said. She suggests doctors ask 
their patients why they want to go vegetarian.

In the study, the motivation to go vegetarian was starkly different 
between women with eating disorders and those who were not. None of the 
women without eating disorders reported becoming vegetarians to lose 
weight. In contrast, almost half of those with an eating disorder 
history said weight was their primary motivator.

Of the women with a history of eating disorders and a history of 
vegetarianism, 68 percent said there was a relationship between the two.
A vegetarian diet helped them lose weight, cut calories and feel in 
control, they reported.

Going vegetarian in order to lose weight and control eating can also 
fall into the category of orthorexia -- an obsession with healthy eating
that can cover for an eating disorder
http://www.xojane.com/it-happened-me/it-happened-me-im-orthorexic ,
according to Kane-Alves.

It's one and the same, she said. It's all restricting food groups, 
spending a lot of time in your life thinking about food, preparing 
food, reading labels, when you don't necessarily have to.

She pointed out, too, that only five percent of those fully recovered
from their eating disorder were still vegetarians.

We always try to respect vegetarian eating practices, but what this 
suggests is that maybe we should have different recommendations for 
vegetarians with eating disorders who are trying to get better, she 
said. We need to at least have a discussion with the person about how 
it might be getting in the way of their recovery.

  soul of MMY's reputation, and for what?, a few coins of silver 
  for her cheap book?, is Judith Bourque MMY's Judas? or a 
  tormented soul hiding beneath flower covered dresses?
 
 Seems to me that the person who destroyed his *own* 
 reputation was the guy who plunged his dick deep into
 Judith Bourque and a number of other women.
 
 If you're looking for a tortured soul, it seems
 to me that it would be the person who did this while 
 claiming to be celibate.

If MMY 'the great pretender' only nailed a couple of broads in his lifetime 
with all that money and power, he was a pretty poor Don Juan, don't cha think? 
;-)

Come on Turq, you know you and I would be nailing them all and probably have a 
harem to boot!

That's a silly comment. He nailed quite a few, but he couldn't exactly go hog 
wild and yet retain secrecy. It's amazing he was able to keep it as secret as 
he did. I believe that may be why he placed such emphasis on secrecy and 
confidentiality in general. Those in positions of authority knew things on a 
need to know basis. Neil Paterson wouldn't tell you what brand of toothpaste he 
used.

RESPONSE: I think this comment by Rick to be apposite--and holding within 
itself a level of sophistication that begins to go to what the reality is. I 
have never had that thought: I believe that may be why he [Maharishi] placed 
such emphasis on secrecy and confidentiality in general. It seems it could be 
true.

For myself, I think there are a number of things  to think about if one assumes 
the veracity of Judy Bourque's testimony (corroborated most unforgettably in 
Robert McCutcheon's Afterword and Witness Testimonial):

1. Maharishi either did not care to preserve his integrity in this way [that 
is, match his private life with his declared public persona--not caring about 
the consequences of this], and therefore does not have a conscience, or else he 
was unable to control his carnal desires, and surrendered himself up to his 
concupiscence involuntarily, as it were. Judith was, after all, a beautiful 
young woman: she certainly would put his enlightenment to the test (in this 
way, enlightenment--Maharishi's at least--requires some vow of celibacy, which 
presumably Maharishi gave in the course of his commitment to Swami Brahmananda 
Saraswati).

2. Were TM to be what Maharishi claimed it to be:--Nature's way of coming to 
know the Unified Field, Nature's way of knowing the final truth about nature, 
Nature's way of fulfilling one full potential as a human being--*Nature would 
never allow the exponent, the personal embodiment, of this truth to be 
compromised in this way*. Nature would have supported Maharishi's celibacy. The 
fact that Nature did not do this, tells us everything we need to know about the 
finality of Nature's commitment to the truth of TM, since guarding the 
reputation of Maharishi in this way would  have been a sine qua non. And, as 
well, what Nature ['Nature' here designates the source of truth, the source of 
'creative intelligence', the ultimate arbiter of what is real] really thought 
of Maharishi is revealed in allowing Maharishi to disgrace himself in this way. 
That is, not in the act of having a physical relationship with Judith Bourque, 
but in his implicit presentation of himself as someone incapable of succumbing 
to the insistence of his erotic desire. 

3. Maharishi must have known somehow that the truth would eventually come out 
about him. He did nothing to prepare his disciples, or his successor, for this 
scandal, a scandal whose reverberations would never cease, because of how 
impressive and beautiful and believable Maharishi was in terms of radiating out 
from himself the truth of his very Teaching. Imagine, had someone posed 
theoretically the question to him: Maharishi, what  should a disciple of a 
Master do or feel if that Master, who was sworn--one must believe, happily 
so--to celibacy, violates that vow and demonstrates by doing so that he is a 
prisoner of something other than his own pure consciousness? Maharishi was 
never able to compute the inevitable consequences of his having 
indulged--however sincerely at the level of romance--his carnal desires in this 
way. What Rick brings our attention to seems to offer up an answer to this: 
Maharishi thought he, as it were, could behave in a way which would 
metaphysically somehow keep the universe itself from divulging the truth about 
his inability or unwillingness to live out the truth which he so powerfully and 
explicitly imposed upon those who were

Dear Rick,

Had it not been for what you said about Maharishi and secrecy, I doubt I would 
have posted anything about this matter. But something alerted in me when I read 
your comment.

I think it was the toothpaste. :-)

You will see that I have added a ninth reflection, for me, the most important 
one of all.

The only way anything can change here is if either Bevan or someone else can 
communicate to us something about Maharishi which somehow is inclusive of his 
behaviour with women--women, that is, who caused him to feel intense physical 
desire.

Perhaps with Bevan (or this other person) such a portrait of Maharishi can 
emerge. But that would mean writing a book--it is I believe a book that Bevan's 
soul desperately would want him to write, but Bevan, he is likely to deny to 
his soul this satisfaction.

  She smiles as she plunges the dagger deep into the heart and 
  soul of MMY's reputation, and for what?, a few coins of silver 
  for her cheap book?, is Judith Bourque MMY's Judas? or a 
  tormented soul hiding beneath flower covered dresses?
 
 Seems to me that the person who destroyed his *own* 
 reputation was the guy who plunged his dick deep into
 Judith Bourque and a number of other women.
 
 If you're looking for a tortured soul, it seems
 to me that it would be the person who did this while 
 claiming to be celibate.

If MMY 'the great pretender' only nailed a couple of broads in his lifetime 
with all that money and power, he was a pretty poor Don Juan, don't cha think? 
;-)

Come on Turq, you know you and I would be nailing them all and probably have a 
harem to boot!

That's a silly comment. He nailed quite a few, but he couldn't exactly go hog 
wild and yet retain secrecy. It's amazing he was able to keep it as secret as 
he did. I believe that may be why he placed such emphasis on secrecy and 
confidentiality in general. Those in positions of authority knew things on a 
need to know basis. Neil Paterson wouldn't tell you what brand of toothpaste he 
used.

RESPONSE: I think this comment by Rich to be apposite--and holding within 
itself a level of sophistication that begins to go to what the reality is. I 
have never had that thought: I believe that may be why he placed such emphasis 
on secrecy and confidentiality in general. It seems it could be true.

For myself, I think there are a number of things  to think about if one assumes 
the veracity of  Judy Bourque's testimony (corroborated most unforgettable in 
Robert McCutcheon's Afterword and Witness Testimonial):

1. Maharishi either did not care to preserve his integrity in this way, and 
therefore does not have a conscience, or else he was unable to control his 
carnal desires, and surrendered himself up to his concupiscence involuntarily, 
as it were. Judith was, after all, a beautiful woman: she certainly would put 
his enlightenment to the test (in this way, enlightenment--Maharishi's at 
least--requires some vow of celibacy, which presumably Maharishi gave in the 
course of his commitment to Swami Brahmananda Saraswati).

2. Were TM to be what Maharishi claimed it to be:--Nature's way of coming to 
know the Unified Field, Nature's way of knowing the final truth about nature, 
Nature's way of fulfilling one full potential as a human being--*Nature would 
never allow the exponent, the personal embodiment, of this truth to be 
compromised in this way*. Nature would have supported Maharishi's celibacy. The 
fact that Nature did not do this, tells us everything we need to know about the 
finality of Nature's commitment to the truth of TM, since guarding the 
reputation of Maharishi in this way would  have been a sine qua non. And, as 
well, what Nature ['Nature' here designates the source of truth, the source of 
'creative intelligence', the ultimate arbiter of what is real] really thought 
of Maharishi is revealed in allowing Maharishi to disgrace himself in this way. 
That is, not in the act of having a physical relationship with Judith Bourque, 
but in his implicit presentation of himself as someone incapable of succumbing 
to the insistence of his erotic feelings.

3. Maharishi must have known somehow that the truth would eventually come out 
about him. He did nothing to prepare his disciples, or his successor, for this 
scandal, a scandal who reverberations would never cease, because of how 
impressive and beautiful and believable Maharishi was in terms of radiating out 
from himself the truth of his very Teaching. Imagine, had someone posed 
theoretically the questions to him: Maharishi, what would should a disciple of 
a Master do

 sounds harsh, but the idea of Maharishi transferring his love for his 
 Master--and the Holy Tradition--to a woman and and an experience which he 
 knew was ephemeral, which he knew was impossible to sustain in the context of 
 his role in the world, why this just defies the imagination--it does mine, 
 anyhow. I trusted Maharishi in this way, not on the basis of simply his 
 enlightenment, but on the very form that enlightenment took, which was as a 
 traditional celibate Saint. 


It has (appeared in his “performance”), wasn’t it Judith who noted the distress 
of Maheshiji and the drowning of a student on a course as stemming from his own 
sexual karmas? Perhaps that was from Conny Larsson?


From Robert McCutcheon: (Maharishi's former secretary)

Ned, you are spot-on in what you say about Maharishi and the TM movement. My 
faith in Maharishi's supposed perfection dissipated when he got sexually 
involved with Jennifer. Then when she left him and went to hide out in 
Switzerland with Bev and Fran, I observed him reduced to the status of a 
quivering adolescent.

 There are many valid reasons to be a vegetarian (see: the  environment,
 your health, and the dismal state of the meat industry, for  starters).
 But what if you go vegetarian to help disguise and aid an  eating

 New research suggests a large percentage of women with eating disorders
 may be doing just that.

 Women suffering from eating disorders are four times more likely to  be
 vegetarian than women without eating disorders, according to a recent
 study published
 http://www.andjrnl.org/article/S2212-2672%2812%2900627-2/abstract  in
 the Journal of the Academy of Nutrition and Dietetics.

 The researchers found that 52 percent of women with a history of  eating
 disorders had been vegetarians at some point in their lives. In
 contrast, only 12 percent of women without eating disorders had
 experimented with a vegetarian diet.

 For clinicians who work with eating disorder patients, the results of
 the study were not surprising.

 Program, told The Huffington Post. It makes it easier when people ask
 you questions about where those foods have gone. It's a more socially
 acceptable way to restrict foods.

 Especially as a teen, parents might be less apt to argue with you for
 not eating, she added.

 Kane-Alves, who was not involved in the study, emphasized that the
 research doesn't argue vegetarianism causes eating disorders, or is
 unhealthy. Instead, it suggests vegetarianism can be a symptom of an
 eating disorder for some women.

 The takeaway of this study is, as a clinician, if you have a patient
 who tells you they want to be a vegetarian, it's worth exploring that
 more than you would have otherwise, she said. She suggests doctors ask
 their patients why they want to go vegetarian.

 In the study, the motivation to go vegetarian was starkly different
 between women with eating disorders and those who were not. None of the
 women without eating disorders reported becoming vegetarians to lose
 weight. In contrast, almost half of those with an eating disorder
 history said weight was their primary motivator.

 Of the women with a history of eating disorders and a history of
 vegetarianism, 68 percent said there was a relationship between the two.
 A vegetarian diet helped them lose weight, cut calories and feel in
 control, they reported.

 Going vegetarian in order to lose weight and control eating can also
 fall into the category of orthorexia -- an obsession with healthy eating
 that can cover for an eating disorder
 http://www.xojane.com/it-happened-me/it-happened-me-im-orthorexic ,
 according to Kane-Alves.

 It's one and the same, she said. It's all restricting food groups,
 spending a lot of time in your life thinking about food, preparing
 food, reading labels, when you don't necessarily have to.

 She pointed out, too, that only five percent of those fully recovered
 from their eating disorder were still vegetarians.

 We always try to respect vegetarian eating practices, but what this
 suggests is that maybe we should have different recommendations for
 vegetarians with eating disorders who are trying to get better, she
 said. We need to at least have a discussion with the person about how
 it might be getting in the way of their recovery.

I get in spats all the time with philosophical vegetarians.  As you 
know I'm a strong believer in biochemical individuality which is a 
cornerstone of Ayurvedic and Chinese medicine and of course the western 
re-invention sometimes referred to as metabolic typing.  The theory is 
we are what our ancestors ate and hence it may be difficult to break 
from that heritage without some physical problems.  I've seen this time 
and time again as people experiment with diet.

   soul of MMY's reputation, and for what?, a few coins of silver 
   for her cheap book?, is Judith Bourque MMY's Judas? or a 
   tormented soul hiding beneath flower covered dresses?
  
  Seems to me that the person who destroyed his *own* 
  reputation was the guy who plunged his dick deep into
  Judith Bourque and a number of other women.
  
  If you're looking for a tortured soul, it seems
  to me that it would be the person who did this while 
  claiming to be celibate.
 
 If MMY 'the great pretender' only nailed a couple of broads in his lifetime 
 with all that money and power, he was a pretty poor Don Juan, don't cha 
 think? ;-)
 
 Come on Turq, you know you and I would be nailing them all and probably have 
 a harem to boot!
 
 That's a silly comment. He nailed quite a few, but he couldn't exactly go 
 hog wild and yet retain secrecy. It's amazing he was able to keep it as 
 secret as he did. I believe that may be why he placed such emphasis on 
 secrecy and confidentiality in general. Those in positions of authority knew 
 things on a need to know basis. Neil Paterson wouldn't tell you what brand of 
 toothpaste he used.
 
 RESPONSE: I think this comment by Rick to be apposite--and holding within 
 itself a level of sophistication that begins to go to what the reality is. I 
 have never had that thought: I believe that may be why he [Maharishi] placed 
 such emphasis on secrecy and confidentiality in general. It seems it could 
 be true.
 
 For myself, I think there are a number of things  to think about if one 
 assumes the veracity of Judy Bourque's testimony (corroborated most 
 unforgettably in Robert McCutcheon's Afterword and Witness Testimonial):
 
 1. Maharishi either did not care to preserve his integrity in this way [that 
 is, match his private life with his declared public persona--not caring about 
 the consequences of this], and therefore does not have a conscience, or else 
 he was unable to control his carnal desires, and surrendered himself up to 
 his concupiscence involuntarily, as it were. Judith was, after all, a 
 beautiful young woman: she certainly would put his enlightenment to the test 
 (in this way, enlightenment--Maharishi's at least--requires some vow of 
 celibacy, which presumably Maharishi gave in the course of his commitment to 
 Swami Brahmananda Saraswati).
 
 2. Were TM to be what Maharishi claimed it to be:--Nature's way of coming to 
 know the Unified Field, Nature's way of knowing the final truth about nature, 
 Nature's way of fulfilling one full potential as a human being--*Nature would 
 never allow the exponent, the personal embodiment, of this truth to be 
 compromised in this way*. Nature would have supported Maharishi's celibacy. 
 The fact that Nature did not do this, tells us everything we need to know 
 about the finality of Nature's commitment to the truth of TM, since guarding 
 the reputation of Maharishi in this way would  have been a sine qua non. And, 
 as well, what Nature ['Nature' here designates the source of truth, the 
 source of 'creative intelligence', the ultimate arbiter of what is real] 
 really thought of Maharishi is revealed in allowing Maharishi to disgrace 
 himself in this way. That is, not in the act of having a physical 
 relationship with Judith Bourque, but in his implicit presentation of himself 
 as someone incapable of succumbing to the insistence of his erotic desire. 
 
 3. Maharishi must have known somehow that the truth would eventually come out 
 about him. He did nothing to prepare his disciples, or his successor, for 
 this scandal, a scandal whose reverberations would never cease, because of 
 how impressive and beautiful and believable Maharishi was in terms of 
 radiating out from himself the truth of his very Teaching. Imagine, had 
 someone posed theoretically the question to him: Maharishi, what  should a 
 disciple of a Master do or feel if that Master, who was sworn--one must 
 believe, happily so--to celibacy, violates that vow and demonstrates by doing 
 so that he is a prisoner of something other than his own pure consciousness? 
 Maharishi was never able to compute the inevitable consequences of his having 
 indulged--however sincerely at the level of romance--his carnal desires in 
 this way. What Rick brings our attention to seems to offer up an answer to 
 this: Maharishi thought he, as it were, could behave in a way which would 
 metaphysically somehow keep the universe

Dear Raunchydog,

So glad there is some FFL poster who is watching the Olympics and saw the 
glorious performance of the irreisistible and celestially bouncing Gabby 
Douglas--what a beautiful creature she is. There is no form of athletics which 
asks so much as does gymnastics does--not even the Decathlon.

I like that someone in the world felt the sensations that I did in watching 
Gabby's individual performance--and would communicate this on FFL.

Does this mean that your granddaughter knows and trains in the same facility as 
does Gabby Douglas?

Well, I will remember you tonight, Raunchydog, when I watch the NBC coverage. 
Bob Costas, the Jesus Christ of sports announcers, I figure. But all the NBC 
colour commentators--for swimming, for gymnastics, for volleyball--they are all 
superb.

We might, here on FFL, have the basis of a water polo team--you know: all that 
blood in the water left after the Hungary and Soviet Union match in 1956.

But Share refuses to pull anyone under the water and smash at them with her 
fists. The rest of us know the rules of water polo and play the game as hard as 
it has to be played here in the FFL pool.

To be an Olympian, might be the best experience anyone can have of physical 
achievement--and something well beyond that.. Did you see those US women eights 
row to victory yesterday?

The Olympics in London, there has never been anything like it. And the 
highlight for me is the performance of the US Fab Five--and Gabby especially.

Enough. Enjoy Lake Huron.

  Robin
  
  Bevan was as guilty of such behavior as MMY was. I doubt any such book will
  be forthcoming.
 
 Dear Rick,
 
 That is not something I know anything about, and it surprises me. Bevan 
 always seemed to me to be a highly principled person. I do think, however, I 
 know of someone who was close to Maharishi who was the only naturally 
 celibate initiator I have ever known--and I think, moreover, his communion 
 with Maharishi was like no one else's. He made teaching TM and being a 
 disciple of Maharishi seem a very pure and irreproachable profession. He 
 always carried the authority of his perfect surrender to Maharishi, and he 
 himself found a dharma which was almost critic-proof.
 
 I think even women always felt the flawlessness of his celibacy and therefore 
 were comfortable around him for this very reason. But the real point I am 
 trying to make here, Rick, is this person *knew Maharishi the man* as well as 
 Maharishi the Master. And I felt that Maharishi made himself known in this 
 way only to this person. Therefore this person, and this person only, really 
 has the credentials to tell us all about Maharishi the man, the human being. 
 For this person was objective about Maharishi, else he could not have 
 delivered such a serene performance in every second (or so it seemed to me) 
 that he served Maharishi. I don't think even after Maharishi's death was this 
 relationship severed.
 
 But he carried something so enigmatic in his deportment and person, that I 
 hardly feel I know him even as I know you, whom I have never even met. But 
 this person, I wish he would write a book about Maharishi, because his 
 relationship with Maharishi was totally real--both from the side of Maharishi 
 and from his own side.
 
 He never pretended anything; he just remained attuned to Maharishi--in all 
 his aspects. And he was totally believable in this. He was faultless in his 
 devotion to an apparently faulty human being; but this person had this 
 advantage: he saw how profound a person Maharishi was, and how the entire 
 universe was willing to demonstrate how significant a being Maharishi was. 
 And that is the story about Maharishi, Rick--at least it is for me. To be 
 able to see Maharishi as he really was, including what Judith Bourque reveals 
 in her book, requires also to see him as a truly cosmic being. This person I 
 speak of he always could see that Maharishi was like no human being of our 
 lifetime; he saw his spiritual integrity, no matter how it was compromised in 
 his actions as a human being. And what this person apprehended, it was 
 powerful and ineffable.
 
 I would trust his account of Maharishi, and no one else's. Until then we only 
 get the polarized and psychologically determined portraits--only in this 
 person exists a paradigm that potentially can address the contradiction of 
 Maharishi.
 
 I will neither confirm or deny any candidates that you might feel tempted to 
 put before me. I cannot do this. I respect this person's integrity too much, 
 although it is a form of integrity which is outside the range of my own human 
 possibilities. One thing I would say: Maharishi respected and loved this 
 initiator more than anyone else. But only Maharishi and this person could 
 know this.
 
 What I seek, Rick, is some reconciliation of these antinomies in Maharishi. 
 Only in this way can we ever obtain a proper estimate of him inside the 
 universe. I have my reservations about him--to say the least--but I know he 
 came upon the earth for some reason which transcends everything he has taught 
 and

For myself, I think there are a number of things  to think about if one assumes 
the veracity of  Judy Bourque's testimony (corroborated most unforgettable in 
Robert McCutcheon's Afterword and Witness Testimonial):

1. Maharishi either did not care to preserve his integrity in this way, and

carnal desires, and surrendered himself up to his concupiscence involuntarily,

That is, not in the act of having a physical relationship with Judith Bourque,

Maharishi thought he, as it were, could behave in a way which would 
metaphysically somehow keep the universe itself from divulging the truth about 
his inability or unwillingness to live out the truth which he so powerfully and 
explicitly imposed upon those who were most devoted to him.

4. The extent to which none of us at the time (early to mid seventies) could 
possibly come to believe Maharishi did what Judith Bourque has told us he did, 
tells us how

 unforgettable in Robert McCutcheon's Afterword and Witness Testimonial):
 
 1. Maharishi either did not care to preserve his integrity in this way, and 
 therefore does not have a conscience, or else he was unable to control his 
 carnal desires, and surrendered himself up to his concupiscence 
 involuntarily, as it were. Judith was, after all, a beautiful woman: she 
 certainly would put his enlightenment to the test (in this way, 
 enlightenment--Maharishi's at least--requires some vow of celibacy, which 
 presumably Maharishi gave in the course of his commitment to Swami 
 Brahmananda Saraswati).
 
 2. Were TM to be what Maharishi claimed it to be:--Nature's way of coming to 
 know the Unified Field, Nature's way of knowing the final truth about nature, 
 Nature's way of fulfilling one full potential as a human being--*Nature would 
 never allow the exponent, the personal embodiment, of this truth to be 
 compromised in this way*. Nature would have supported Maharishi's celibacy. 
 The fact that Nature did not do this, tells us everything we need to know 
 about the finality of Nature's commitment to the truth of TM, since guarding 
 the reputation of Maharishi in this way would  have been a sine qua non. And, 
 as well, what Nature ['Nature' here designates the source of truth, the 
 source of 'creative intelligence', the ultimate arbiter of what is real] 
 really thought of Maharishi is revealed in allowing Maharishi to disgrace 
 himself in this way. That is, not in the act of having a physical 
 relationship with Judith Bourque, but in his implicit presentation of himself 
 as someone incapable of succumbing to the insistence of his erotic feelings.
 
 3. Maharishi must have known somehow that the truth would eventually come out 
 about him. He did nothing to prepare his disciples, or his successor, for 
 this scandal, a scandal who reverberations would never cease, because of how 
 impressive and beautiful and believable Maharishi was in terms of radiating 
 out from himself the truth of his very Teaching. Imagine, had someone posed 
 theoretically the questions to him: Maharishi, what would should a disciple 
 of a Master do or feel if that Master, who was sworn--one must believe, 
 happily so--to celibacy, violates that vow and demonstrates by doing so that 
 he is a prisoner of something other than his own pure consciousness? 
 Maharishi was never able to compute the inevitably consequences of his having 
 indulged--however sincerely at the level of romance--his carnal desires in 
 this way. What Rich brings out attention to seems to offer up an answer to 
 this: Maharishi thought he, as it were, could behave in a way which would 
 metaphysically somehow keep the universe itself from divulging the truth 
 about his inability or unwillingness to live out the truth which he so 
 powerfully and explicitly imposed upon those who were most devoted to him.

Good God Gabby!  That smile on her face at the end!  That total being in the 
zone.  Goose bumps just watching her.  The sound of the crowd clapping.  The 
unity of it all.  Wow and wow and wow and wow

I remember some moments of total being in the zone when I played softball.  
Yeah, God in the body...

thanks RC for posting

  Carl Hester rode the top scoring ride today for Britain. Fabulous Dutch 
  horse. Wish I had the video to post, but alas.
 
 
 Here ya go, Ann. NBC has videos of many events as well as live streaming. 
 Hester is masterful, Uthopia is a gorgeous horse from head to tail.

 I'm on vacation in Michigan, just north of Oscoda on Lake Huron, haven't 
 posted much. I've been taking long walks on the shore, toes in sugar sand, 
 enjoying a nice breeze coming off the lake, just relaxing and visiting 
 family. In the evening I've had eyes glued to the Olympics, women's 
 gymnastics, swimming and beach volleyball. 
 
 All glory to gymnast, Gabby Douglas! Fabulous! Only 4'11, just a little bit 
 of a thing, but, oh what a powerhouse. She won gold for Women's All Round. 
 Number one and best in the world. Gabby trains in West Des Moines, Iowa. My 
 granddaughter, a budding gymnast, love-love-loves her! 
 
 Here's Gabby's winning Floor Exercise:

 The precision and years of training required of a gymnast is every bit as 
 demanding as it is for dressage, both exquisitely beautiful and thrilling to 
 watch.

Dear Raunchydog,

So glad there is some FFL poster who is watching the Olympics and saw the 
glorious performance of the irreisistible and celestially bouncing Gabby 
Douglas--what a beautiful creature she is. There is no form of athletics which 
asks so much as does gymnastics does--not even the Decathlon.

I like that someone in the world felt the sensations that I did in watching 
Gabby's individual performance--and would communicate this on FFL.

Does this mean that your granddaughter knows and trains in the same facility as 
does Gabby Douglas?

Well, I will remember you tonight, Raunchydog, when I watch the NBC coverage. 
Bob Costas, the Jesus Christ of sports announcers, I figure. But all the NBC 
colour commentators--for swimming, for gymnastics, for volleyball--they are all 
superb.

We might, here on FFL, have the basis of a water polo team--you know: all that 
blood in the water left after the Hungary and Soviet Union match in 1956.

But Share refuses to pull anyone under the water and smash at them with her 
fists. The rest of us know the rules of water polo and play the game as hard as 
it has to be played here in the FFL pool.

To be an Olympian, might be the best experience anyone can have of physical 
achievement--and something well beyond that.. Did you see those US women eights 
row to victory yesterday?

The Olympics in London, there has never been anything like it. And the 
highlight for me is the performance of the US Fab Five--and Gabby especially.

Enough. Enjoy Lake Huron.

Robin

[FairfieldLife] 'Timelines by Zeta'

2012-08-03 Thread Robert
 
 

Uniting our Physical and Energetic Selves Activates Fifth-Dimensional Timelines
 
 
 
We are in an amazing time filled with new potentials that offer each person the 
possibility to experience their highest visions and gift the world with amazing 
new ideas, innovations, works of art and discoveries.
The key to living along timelines where our highest and best exists is to unite 
our physical and energetic selves. As we become one within ourselves, we're 
able to unite with the gifts and talents we have cultivated throughout the 
history of our soul. Cultivating inner oneness allows us to do all this and 
more.
The greatest challenges we face are those that arise from a state of inner 
separation. This is what happens when we choose to see ourselves solely as a 
physical being. When we limit our experience to only that which we can observe 
with our physical senses, we cut ourselves off from a great amount of the 
assistance we would otherwise receive from our energetic self. It is through 
the union of our physical and energetic selves that we're able to access 
fifth-dimensional timelines aligned with our highest visions and dreams.
Unifying the Physical and the Energetic Bodies
We have a physical body we're able to observe through our five senses. Working 
in conjunction with the physical level is our energetic body which exists 
beyond the physical. Our energetic self is not confined to the boundaries of 
time and space. It is able to ride waves of energy and pick up the vibration of 
realities crystalyzing in our near future. Our energy body can access portals 
and time openings, receive and send information to and from the vast libraries 
of all-time and all-knowing. This information and assistance can be used to 
restore balance to all levels of our being.
Dream States help Assimilate Universal Knowledge
Once our energy body brings us what is needed, this information is assimilated 
in various ways, including dream states and deep levels of meditation. As we 
allow ourselves to put these understandings to use in our daily lives, we're 
able to restore balance at all levels of our being. When we restore balance in 
this way, we're able to bring about healing and regeneration of our physical 
system. Universal knowledge accessed by our energetic self helps us heal 
emotional wounds and unite with talents and abilities from past and future life 
selves. It allows us to experience deeper levels of self-realization in this 
lifetime. One lifetime fully realized has the power to entrain past and future 
life selves to their highest potentials and set us on the path of ascension.
We are More than our Physical Selves
Keys to unifying our physical and energetic bodies is to accept that we are 
more than our physical selves. This sounds simple but throughout time people 
have set intentions that effectively closed them off from receiving the 
blessings derived from the unification of these aspects of themselves.
Thought Viruses Seek to Conquer and Divide
Those divided within themselves are easy to control and enslave. When a person 
is shut off from receiving assistance and understanding from their energetic 
self, they are disempowered, their energy easily preyed upon. This leaves them 
subject to scarcity, struggle, suffering, disease and death.
Thought viruses are passed from one person to another. They are encoded into 
certain belief systems in much the same way that viruses are encoded into 
computer programs. When our physical and energetic selves work together, we are 
able to see through the thought viruses we encounter. We can be grateful for 
thought viruses because they provide us with important feedback as to where 
we're at with inner unification.
Intention Filters Block the Union of the Physical and Energetic Bodies
Our energetic self is always going out, bringing us what we need to carry out 
our mission here. It always brings us everything we ask for at the moment we 
ask for it. If we are not receiving the things we ask for, we can examine if 
we're blocking ourselves from receiving the love, information, abundance, 
assistance and resources we're asking for.
Some people limit their receptivity through beliefs about what they feel they 
deserve or don't deserve. Some people limit their receiving capability due to 
unhealed or unresolved emotions. There's an array of filters a person might 
place on their existence, each tied to a wound, intention or limiting belief 
that serves as a filter for their experience. Ironically, these filters block 
the very things that empower and enrich experience.
As we observe our own consciousness and bring awareness to any filters we're 
placing on our potentials, we're able to burn through anything that stands 
between our physical and energetic selves and the magical synchronicities that 
are the natural result of these two aspects of ourselves working together in 
perfect peace and harmony.
