Re: [FairfieldLife] Re: NCAA Men's Basketball Championship Tonight!
Hi Carol, I always played slow pitch so I doubt I could even hit one of those fast pitches! I don't know what a rollie bat is but my Grandad played sandlot baseball so I guess it's in my genes. Speaking of which, the name of the Bruce Lipton movie is also Biology of Belief. The public library showed it here a few years ago. I remember some research about putting a few skin cells from a person in a petrie dish. When that person heard their spouse say I love you, even in the next room, their skin cells changed. Very cool stuff. Anyway, here's a question: if we were to find some cells of Copernicus, could we say I love you to them and would that benefit Copernicus? Another kind of time travel maybe.

[FairfieldLife] Proof of Heaven - for Emily
Hey Emily, I have finished the book and I enjoyed it. I would characterize 'Proof of Heaven' as a big book within a little book. On one level it is a little book, it is merely one man's experience of a place, a reality that he believes was true. What he reveals about his experience is lovely in the extreme; it is very personal and I would love most aspects of what he saw and perceived to be true. The big part of the book for me is that it has permanently instilled in me a vision and a hope for what could be waiting for me after death. I believe Eben to be a courageous man who, in the male-dominated medical profession, has put himself forward for what he knows to be probable ridicule in his peers' eyes. It is very evident from his writing that his NDE is the one most substantial event in his life and because of what it has done for him personally, on all levels, he feels it vital to communicate his 'findings' while in his coma to the world. That is how positive and life altering his coma experience was, let alone the very near to dying he came with a very rare disease for someone his age. Then there is, of course, the 'miracle' of complete recovery from virtual brain death as more proof to him that he was 'chosen' to have this NDE and recovery in order to spread a message of hope and happiness for people. Plus, being a learned man in the area of the brain and its functioning, its physical makeup and how disease or health manifests as well as knowledge gained through years practicing and studying within in his profession, his opinions and scientific evidence give more clout to dispel the notion his NDE was merely a vision or brain-originating hallucination. He gives strong evidence for why it could not be that but was the EXPERIENCE OF PURE CONSCIOUSNESS unsullied by brain function or memory or projection. I also found that in his description of the various 'strata' of those worlds he visited after falling into his deep coma that they resonated with some part of me. The worm's eye view was something I felt I had some knowledge of as well as the infinite bliss and love of the deeper places, the places even closer to God. I felt in his descriptions a tickling of some deeper memory for me of some truth there so I take his NDE very seriously. Thanks for recommending the book, it was a worthwhile read and maybe as close as we can come to a scientifically backed up explanation for what might possibly exist, for some or for all, after dropping the body. No matter what, it is a lovely idea or vision to hold in one's awareness while we still clamber about this planet in the body we currently possess.

[FairfieldLife] Re: NCAA Men's Basketball Championship Tonight!
Seventhray...it is Indian Ball. I don't recall ever learning about that. Thank you. Share...fascinating about cellular memory/response and the skin cells. Do you know if this experiment was duplicated? I wonder if any responses are dependent on other factors such as individual's constitution or how much time the cells are detached from the body. This brings to mind Donna Eden's book on Energy Medicine and one of her accounts regarding an amputated finger. I'd have to look up the details now, but it seems their was communication between the finger and the hand from which it was amputated. I know energy medicine is controversial and some (most?) scientists tout it as pseudo science. One day maybe we will have the mechanisms for more reliable hard data. Regardless, once a person experiences something, it's difficult for one to deny that experience and remain stable. I mean, to deny it can produce a cognitive dissonance which can eventually be detrimental to one's well being. I think of one of Audubon's quotes: When the bird and the book disagree, always believe the bird. [But I'd take out the word always. ;) ] I posted in another FFL thread about Paul Pearsall. I think I posted about his interviews with organ transplant patients and the cellular memory transferred to the patient. Patients (at least at the time the book was written) could not know who their donors were for one year; yet, the patients had picked up words and/or memories and/or certain behaviors and tastes that the patient didn't have previous to receiving their new organ. Come to learn a year later, that those changes coincided with their donors' memories/tastes/words/etc. Life sure is complex and rich. I was updating my poetry archive last night. It was fun reading through poems I've penned in the last 4 years. One piece reminded me of how so much life surrounds us every moment of every day; life is everywhere. And the seeds of life...such an abundance of seeds. --- In FairfieldLife@yahoogroups.com, seventhray27 steve.sundur@... wrote: I think it's what we used to call Indian Ball http://www.stlmag.com/St-Louis-Magazine/July-2008/What-the-Is-Indian-Ball/ --- In FairfieldLife@yahoogroups.com, Share Long sharelong60@ wrote: Hi Carol, I always played slow pitch so I doubt I could even hit one of those fast pitches! I don't know what a rollie bat is but my Grandad played sandlot baseball so I guess it's in my genes. Speaking of which, the name of the Bruce Lipton movie is also Biology of Belief. The public library showed it here a few years ago. I remember some research about putting a few skin cells from a person in a petrie dish. When that person heard their spouse say I love you, even in the next room, their skin cells changed. Very cool stuff. Anyway, here's a question: if we were to find some cells of Copernicus, could we say I love you to them and would that benefit Copernicus? Another kind of time travel maybe. From: Carol jchwelch@ To: FairfieldLife@yahoogroups.com Sent: Thursday, April 11, 2013 9:14 PM Subject: [FairfieldLife] Re: NCAA Men's Basketball Championship Tonight!  Women's softball pitchers are fun to watch.

It is very evident from his writing that his NDE is the one most substantial event in his life and because of what it has done for him personally, on all levels, he feels it vital to communicate his 'findings' while in his coma to the world. That is how positive and life altering his coma experience was, let alone the very near to dying he came with a very rare disease for someone his age. Then there is, of course, the 'miracle' of complete recovery from virtual brain death as more proof to him that he was 'chosen' to have this NDE and recovery in order to spread a message of hope and happiness for people. Plus, being a learned man in the area of the brain and its functioning, its physical makeup and how disease or health manifests as well as knowledge gained through years practicing and studying within in his profession, his opinions and scientific evidence give more clout to dispel the notion his NDE was merely a vision or brain-originating hallucination. He gives strong evidence for why it could not be that but was the EXPERIENCE OF PURE CONSCIOUSNESS unsullied by brain function or memory or projection. I also found that in his description of the various 'strata' of those worlds he visited after falling into his deep coma that they resonated with some part of me. The worm's eye view was something I felt I had some knowledge of as well as the infinite bliss and love of the deeper places, the places even closer to God. I felt in his descriptions a tickling of some deeper memory for me of some truth there so I take his NDE very seriously. Thanks for recommending the book, it was a worthwhile read and maybe as close as we can come to a scientifically backed up explanation for what might possibly exist, for some or for all, after dropping the body. No matter what, it is a lovely idea or vision to hold in one's awareness while we still clamber about this planet in the body we currently possess.

Carol, I'm pretty sure it was HeartMath research that Lipton was talking about but don't remember if they duplicated it. Their website might have more info. A LOT of research is cited in the documentary, a lot of teachers interviewed. And my memory is faulty. Anyway, because of my interest in EFT I've heard of Eden's book. Though having written that, I realize that maybe EFT tapping could be considered a bit of a bridge between energy work and acupuncture which has a longer tradition. I have 20 notebooks from having been in a women's writing group for periods of time. I had begun transferring them to my computer. But the temptation to edit comes up and so they remain in paper form for now. And yes, it is wonderful to read some of the previous writing. Thanks, I really like the Audubon quote and how you'd change it. You got me thinking about what it means to experience something. So many levels of experiencing can be present in a moment: the sensory for sure, but also any memories the sensory might be evoking on either the mental or energetic level.

I'm always puzzled by him characterizing Mississippi delta blues as hillbilly music. To my thinking, that label would only apply to bluegrass and country. Yours is the more common distinction. The music of the hillbilly is shaped by Irish and Scottish folk music rather than black culture. They are almost direct opposites musically. I think he is using it as a euphemism for I don't like you. Growing up in the blues I made stronger distinctions between African American based blues and the white blues of say Hank Williams. In my recent research I am finding that there was more of a crossover between white and black cultures in music than I had realized, especially cowboy music. Black bluesmen were as crazy about cowboys as everyone else. When Alan Lomax went to record Muddy Waters before he went to Chicago in 1941 he knew more cowboy songs than blues songs! Alan only recorded his blues songs in that session which is kind of too bad. Tommy Johnson yodeled in his 1928 recording. I don't feel much affinity with the twang in their voices but the themes of the blues sure zoom forth in this song by Jimmy Davis who had a number one hit in '40 followed by Gene Autry's number one hit with the same song in '41. But check out the first verse for all the blues. Gene started with the chorus in his version, and it changes the blues vibe of the song completely. I play this in old folks homes, they love it. The other night, dear, As I lay sleeping I dreamed I held you in my arms. When I awoke, dear, I was mistaken And I hung my head and cried. You are my sunshine, My only sunshine.

Some stand ready 2 assist him in that!! Share Long: What do you think it means when he says that the mind...will withdraw from samsara on its own? The POV of Adwaita, according to the Adwaita Tradition of Shankaracharya, is 'consciousness is the only reality', everything else is an appearance based on the senses. According to the founder of Adwaita in India, Adwaita is the realization that things and events are an *illusion*; and the *dispelling of illusion* by a process of experiential yogic transcendental meditation. Gaudapada: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gaudapada In the Adwaita realization, the witness, Purusha, the Transcendental Person, stands all by Itself as the Self in Pure Consciousness *isolated* from the prakriti. Adwaita is based on pure monism: there is One reality, all the perceptions are appearance only. GD taught that 'Brahman is Light; it needs no other light for illumination'. The difference is the same as the difference between rice and paddy. Remove the skin of the paddy and it is rice. Similarly, remove the covering of Maya, and the Jiva will become Brahman. - SBS Will LBS soon publish the words of Guru DEV? In reality, the aim of life is to stop the mind from involvement with this world.

This is reported to be not as good as Tree of Life. And the females in this one apparently do alot of that twirling about and looking at the sky that Jessica Chastain did in Tree of Life. So that makes me a bit uneasy. For me, Tree of Life had tons of content (loss of innocence, coming of age, father/sons especially in the 50's, how a person feels when they give up dreams of work, dealing with the loss of a child or sibling, seeing death or scarring of a playmate - a peer, how psiritual views change as one matures). There was a good deal of extraneous stuff in the movie, too. Malick takes his time, which can be annoying, but somehow that slow pace seems right for the issues he deals with. But Tree of Life was one of those movies that felt really different for different people. --- In FairfieldLife@yahoogroups.com, turquoiseb no_reply@... wrote: --- In FairfieldLife@yahoogroups.com, Susan wayback71@ wrote: Barry, Have you seen it yet?

Hey how about T20 - do you watch IPL? There aren't many English players around this season - of course KP's injured, he was in Delhi the other day cheering his team - I saw Eoin Morgan playing.

In 8th grade we won the DC Metro championship for Catholic grade schools. That was very cool. I only played basketball in high school because there was no softball. Half way through we switched to partial full court play which was interesting. Then in college I minored in Modern Dance. Half way through I got married and we used to play tennis doubles. But not so much because we were both working full time. Oh wait! Yeah, one season the company I worked for sponsored a women's softball team. We didn't win a championship but that season we were the only team to beat the very tough champions from the previous year. We won by one run and it was exciting right down to the final out. Your post from Hearthmath was very interesting. I'd seen a Bruce Lipton movie once that had a lot about them in it. Plus I have their book. And I'm also familiar with Dr. Emoto's work on water crystals. We are definitely living in very cool times.

Thanks for the recommendation. I have an iPad and will order it tonight. I love the instant gratification when it comes to being able to order books online like that and download them immediately. I thought I would miss the feel of the paper and the book in my hand more when reading from a tablet screen (iPad) plus I feel veyy guilty about not buying from my local bookstores (I always try to buy from independent bookstores, being an little independent shop owner myself). Now I can continue to obsess on death and dying more than I usually do by reading a second book on it. Hopefully ' Dying to be Me' will be uplifting. I tend to get rather Woody Allenish about illness and death. I need all the uplift I can get. From: Ann awoelflebater@... To: FairfieldLife@yahoogroups.com Sent: Friday, April 12, 2013 9:58 AM Subject: [FairfieldLife] Proof of Heaven - for Emily  Hey Emily, I have finished the book and I enjoyed it. I would characterize 'Proof of Heaven' as a big book within a little book. On one level it is a little book, it is merely one man's experience of a place, a reality that he believes was true. What he reveals about his experience is lovely in the extreme; it is very personal and I would love most aspects of what he saw and perceived to be true. The big part of the book for me is that it has permanently instilled in me a vision and a hope for what could be waiting for me after death. I believe Eben to be a courageous man who, in the male-dominated medical profession, has put himself forward for what he knows to be probable ridicule in his peers' eyes. It is very evident from his writing that his NDE is the one most substantial event in his life and because of what it has done for him personally, on all levels, he feels it vital to communicate his 'findings' while in his coma to the world. That is how positive and life altering his coma experience was, let alone the very near to dying he came with a very rare disease for someone his age. Then there is, of course, the 'miracle' of complete recovery from virtual brain death as more proof to him that he was 'chosen' to have this NDE and recovery in order to spread a message of hope and happiness for people. Plus, being a learned man in the area of the brain and its functioning, its physical makeup and how disease or health manifests as well as knowledge gained through years practicing and studying within in his profession, his opinions and scientific evidence give more clout to dispel the notion his NDE was merely a vision or brain-originating hallucination. He gives strong evidence for why it could not be that but was the EXPERIENCE OF PURE CONSCIOUSNESS unsullied by brain function or memory or projection. I also found that in his description of the various 'strata' of those worlds he visited after falling into his deep coma that they resonated with some part of me. The worm's eye view was something I felt I had some knowledge of as well as the infinite bliss and love of the deeper places, the places even closer to God. I felt in his descriptions a tickling of some deeper memory for me of some truth there so I take his NDE very seriously. Thanks for recommending the book, it was a worthwhile read and maybe as close as we can come to a scientifically backed up explanation for what might possibly exist, for some or for all, after dropping the body. No matter what, it is a lovely idea or vision to hold in one's awareness while we still clamber about this planet in the body we currently possess.
[FairfieldLife] For True Cat Lovers Only
Now, you tell me if you could have one of these in your house, to pet and cuddle. If so, you are a better person (or at least a stronger one) than me. Welcome to the world of hairless cats. And I know there are a lot of cat lovers here.They just make me want to cover them up with a knitted sweater or something. Poor little things. On second thought, I would want one, just so I could let it know it is loved despite its appearance. Did humans breed these or do they occur naturally? Surely not. (The nose on the bottom photo looks like the same one the Straw Man has in the Wizard of Oz.)

This is hilarious. Talk about NDE's if, in fact these rides exist, which seems to be perfectly ludicrous. It took me a while to realize this was a spoof. Really well done. That first ride is gorgeous though, with all the people on swings on multi-levels. Very other-worldly.
[FairfieldLife] Re: Patanjali as a Quantum Physicist
Here's another take on this subject from Yogi Shanti Desai. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_sr5JLi73i0 --- In FairfieldLife@yahoogroups.com, John jr_esq@... wrote: Many of his thoughts in the Yoga Sutras can be related to the ideas in quantum physics today. In sutra III.45, he stated: Thence results the manifestation of the powers, such as atomization et cetera, perfection of the body and indestructibility of its constituents. Specifically, animan pertains the miniaturization of the body. But it could also cover the siddhi to see parts of the body, such as the details of the retina in the eyes. This specific siddhi is the prime example that the universe is based on consciousness. Even the dimensions of space and time are based on consciousness. If this is so, the higher dimensions theorized in physics are not curbed and hidden within space-time. Rather, these dimensions are the various vibrations relating to the states of consciousness in the human experience. In other words, the common experiences of waking, sleeping, and dreaming are part of the higher vibrations of the space-time continuum. In effect, all of nature, even a rock, experiences a form of waking, sleeping and dreaming. Ultimately, however, only the human physiology can experience Unity Consciousness. As such, it's fascinating to contemplate that the human being is the culmination of creation in the universe.
