Re: [FairfieldLife] Re: FFL looks different this morning
No Jim seriously - not second time, but I will point it every time at my own will, my own fancy, my own convenience - just because a delusion is benign, harmless unlike Barry's sadistic delusions doesn't mean I will let it go unchallenged. My world is always awesome BTW - my comments nothing to do with my world - hilarious, how the hell did you come up with that? It has everything to do with your delusions, your intellectual masturbation, your fancy tales. There was a long time when I let lot of delusional thinking go unanswered, unchallenged viz. Amma is the divine Mother, all kinds of religious, delusional fantasies like yours, spiritual narratives constructed based on borrowed concepts such as Maharishi's go unanswered because I was not ready yet. I had to face my own battles, my own struggles first. I certainly mocked even back then, but mostly internal and sometimes people had to face my wrath especially my ex who was totally delusional. You and Rory are at least nice, functional otherwise. You talked me off the ledge - hilarious. It's understandable when Barry and Vaj gave a dishonest, negative spin on my experiences in the past, not you Jim - it's not acceptable when I have talked about it much. And your thing about not encouraging me on my playing of guitar - lame, really - you think I will fail now? In the absence of your UC, BC-fied grace?

Re: [FairfieldLife] Re: FFL looks different this morning
Dear Rory, I am going to consolidate my replies in this reply to your post here because it perfectly demonstrates what I want to say. You say it's not your style to point your finger outwards with reference to Barry. So you will just encourage someone's delusions (Barry's delusions in this case) because it is not your philosophy. You don't want to feel the tension, the metaphysical tension caused by the divergent, discordant nature of reality and you would rather numb the complexities, the contradictions by sticking to your philosophy of *Us* and *Me*. It is clear then that you are not driven by any spiritual experience that has caused any transformation, not motivated by any search for truth but have created a very beautiful sounding narrative based on borrowed concepts of Maharishi - now you have given your own spin to it and you spout your philosophy ad nauseam. This is the same issue with your erstwhile online autobiography. It was hilarous - I only read a few lines over a few chapters and it drove me totally nuts. I'm glad you are over those experiences but its the same thing you have switched one narrative for another. I can't seem to remember the incredible narrative of your biography, I have to say you have a highly fantasized, imaginative mind - but you have this new narrative now - me, Us, wavicles, particles, healing and integrating of you and in me (did I get that right). I am trying my best to be cordial given the sensitive nature of pointing out someone's delusions - your delusions in this case. I don't doubt your sincerity, your genuineness - you are a really nice guy. I look at your picture to day and I go - Oh really Ravi, you want to do this to this nice guy Rory with a beautiful smile? But I had to. This is not your school, not your captive audience, not the Batgap list Rory - this is FFL where the Kali's Pimp does his drive-bys. I don't doubt your spiritual experiences, your spiritual path - you hear me? It's the narrative you have built, it's the abstract, vague philosophical bullshit that you spout that I have an issue against. It's lame for you to concur with Share on me being testy from trying to wean off smoking Rory. Anyone who knows me personally know how balanced, how calm I am even as I am being under various stress, needs of life, how totally under control I am even as I get mad at people's dishonesty (my friends don't get to see that though - that is my anger) No Rory - you can do better than that. Or may be you can't - you can't help yourself. But have mercy on others - just imagine there's a limit on posting, get those wavicles of yours that are out of whack under control. Ravi.

Hey, Ravi, I am happy you have felt moved to call Barry on his tantrums (plural: tantra?), if that pleases you, but that is not my style. I don't find, usually, that pointing my finger outward really solves my feelings inward. Some of that may be because I grew up in a family with a very large, strong, unpredictably angry father, where that kind of honesty would have instantly brought me great suffering, if not death, and, coward that I am, I didn't particularly want to suffer or -- miserable though I found life sometimes -- to die. Of course, there are always exceptions, and I contain huge amounts of ignorance within me, and in real life I speak out in an attempt to comb the mirror more often than necessary, I am pretty sure. Your mileage may of course widely vary. I am not trying to change you or Barry or Judy. I see my mission here as simple: love what IS, no matter how ugly it may appear to me and in me at first. Of course, as you can see, I also like the feeling of understanding and being understood, and hence my dialogues. And I like the feeling of assimilation and healing, once I have actually assimilated and healed the rather intense suffering I often feel here. Anyhow, thank you for being You. *L*L*L*

[FairfieldLife] Barry's OPD - 5 day forecast
Analysis: Barry's obsession levels are surprisingly below normal. Barry was expected to come out hitting hard against the new guidelines of unlimited posting. The levels of Paranoia and Delusion are well below normal for this time of the week as well. However these are expected to intensify as the week progresses with projected max of 95/40/20 (O/P/D) on Wednesday. http://imgur.com/hSi8oFY

I don't doubt your spiritual experiences, your spiritual path I don't doubt any one's spiritual experiences. There are several people who may share their spiritual experiences, their subjectives states of bliss, energy - I listen, because I believe in it - but the minute I see them trying to build a narrative out of it, some fancy tales, delusional fantasies, an elaborate philosophy to peddle I challenge it. I can't help it Rory - it's not your experiences I have a problem with it's the narrative you are peddling - the wavicle, particle, Us, me bullshit. I can't help it - I have nothing against you personally. I have been meaning to go after your narrative for a while but you haven't been on FFL for a while.

Please don't take this as a total slam, or a declaration that I don't like you. I do. I'm still available for discussions about real-world things we both might like, such as movies or TV or good food or just humor. It's just that I've learned my lesson about interfacing with you on issues of belief or supposed states of conscious- ness or whatever. You have a tendency to drop into what Curtis may have called NLP 'bot-speak when talking about such things. I'd term it more spiritual teacher schtick. But either way, I have neither respect for it, nor the patience to endure it. I've heard the same schtick from so many people -- both teachers and students -- over the years that for me it's like trying to have a conversation with ELIZA. Do you know about ELIZA? She was one of the first experiments in natural language and pseudo- AI, written at MIT during the mid-1960s: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/ELIZA http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/ELIZA She employed simple pattern matching to emulate the experience of talking with a psychiatrist, and to those early programmers' credit, she did a fairly good job of it. But after the first initial buzz, users soon wrote it off as what they called it, a chatterbot. That's my take on spiritual teacher schtick. It's a FORMULA. Given a question of type A, respond with a corresponding answer, always designed to perpetuate the idea that the teacher is in charge and wiser than the person being spoken to. It's a control mechanism. Some people seem to like that sorta thing, especially those who are searching for some guru to Beam me up, Scotty. I don't care for it much, and tend to prefer people who don't speak according to preset formulas. I am NOT suggesting that you *consciously* speak/write this way, BTW, just that you've been doing it so long that you speak/write that way out of habit. Curtis and I have had many offline discussions about this kind of spiritual schtick, and I've learned a lot from his studies of Neuro-Linguistic Programming. But the bottom line is that neither of us sees much benefit in interfacing with a 'bot any more. That said, I appreciate that your formula is mainly funny. That's a big improvement over the mean girl formulas one usually encounters here.

I also did a lot of teaching and managing during my career, meaning that if someone didn't understand what I said the first time, I had to invent many other ways, of saying the same thing. So if people are put off by the language you are using (wavicles and particles, for example), perhaps find another way to say the same thing. And don't let the assholes get to you! Jai Guru Dev, and enjoy your breakfast, and the beginning of another amazing day! --- In FairfieldLife@yahoogroups.com, RoryGoff rorygoff@... wrote: --- In FairfieldLife@yahoogroups.com, emilymae.reyn emilymae.reyn@ wrote: Rory, I am glad you are back and here.

I must admit I am now feeling as if I have bitten off a little more than I could chew, energetically, and am suffering from some indigestion that feels rather like a hangover. I am currently integrating what feels like sadness, disappointment, shock, betrayal, confusion, anger, drunkenness, judgment, and so on and so on Quite a potpourri.

And we can correspond by email and facebook for free. That must be where you perfected what Curtis called your Neuro-Linguistic Programming robot- speak. Having now experienced it, I cannot help but agree with his description. :-) They fall for that stuff in Fairfield, do they? Please don't take this as a total slam, or a declaration that I don't like you. I do. I'm still available for discussions about real-world things we both might like, such as movies or TV or good food or just humor. It's just that I've learned my lesson about interfacing with you on issues of belief or supposed states of conscious- ness or whatever. You have a tendency to drop into what Curtis may have called NLP 'bot-speak when talking about such things. I'd term it more spiritual teacher schtick. But either way, I have neither respect for it, nor the patience to endure it. I've heard the same schtick from so many people -- both teachers and students -- over the years that for me it's like trying to have a conversation with ELIZA. Do you know about ELIZA? She was one of the first experiments in natural language and pseudo- AI, written at MIT during the mid-1960s: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/ELIZA http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/ELIZA She employed simple pattern matching to emulate the experience of talking with a psychiatrist, and to those early programmers' credit, she did a fairly good job of it. But after the first initial buzz, users soon wrote it off as what they called it, a chatterbot. That's my take on spiritual teacher schtick. It's a FORMULA. Given a question of type A, respond with a corresponding answer, always designed to perpetuate the idea that the teacher is in charge and wiser than the person being spoken to. It's a control mechanism. Some people seem to like that sorta thing, especially those who are searching for some guru to Beam me up, Scotty. I don't care for it much, and tend to prefer people who don't speak according to preset formulas. I am NOT suggesting that you *consciously* speak/write this way, BTW, just that you've been doing it so long that you speak/write that way out of habit. Curtis and I have had many offline discussions about this kind of spiritual schtick, and I've learned a lot from his studies of Neuro-Linguistic Programming. But the bottom line is that neither of us sees much benefit in interfacing with a 'bot any more. That said, I appreciate that your formula is mainly funny. That's a big improvement over the mean girl formulas one usually encounters here.

Re: [FairfieldLife] Re: FFL looks different this morning
Ravi, there's an acupressure point that in the past has helped subside cookie cravings in me. In EFT it's called the Karate Chop point because it's that part of the hand you'd use to do a karate chop. Anyway, in Traditional Chinese Medicine it's associated with the small intestine. When a cigarette craving comes up, you can tap the 2 Karate Chop points against each other and say whatever comes to mind. The more spontaneous you are, the better. When I was doing it, I'd simply say out loud how much I wanted those cookies, over and over. And then the craving went away (-: From: Ravi Chivukula chivukula.r...@gmail.com To: FairfieldLife@yahoogroups.com FairfieldLife@yahoogroups.com Sent: Sunday, August 11, 2013 8:09 PM Subject: Re: [FairfieldLife] Re: FFL looks different this morning Yes dear thank you, I gave up for a year in my twenties, cold turkey as well and yeah been hungry as hell today but not a problem - I will make it.

Ravi - As Rory, said, a lot of this is shorthand, for *shared* experiences, within the context of the symptoms that Maharishi associated with each one. So you are saying, take it off-line. But you are in the minority here, wrt the class the rest of us have taken. Mostly current and ex-TM'ers, here on FFL. Here's a background, states of consciousness, and associated symptoms: CC - 24/7 witnessing, living in silence. GC - perception of the finest relative. What it says, including worlds and beings not clearly evident to most. UC - Unity predominates over differences. Brahman - an integrated life, incorporating all of the above, in a package, and much, much more.

It is clear then that you are not driven by any spiritual experience that has caused any transformation, not motivated by any search for truth but have created a very beautiful sounding narrative based on borrowed concepts of Maharishi - now you have given your own spin to it and you spout your philosophy ad nauseam. This is the same issue with your erstwhile online autobiography. It was hilarous - I only read a few lines over a few chapters and it drove me totally nuts. I'm glad you are over those experiences but its the same thing you have switched one narrative for another. I can't seem to remember the incredible narrative of your biography, I have to say you have a highly fantasized, imaginative mind - but you have this new narrative now - me, Us, wavicles, particles, healing and integrating of you and in me (did I get that right). I am trying my best to be cordial given the sensitive nature of pointing out someone's delusions - your delusions in this case. I don't doubt your sincerity, your genuineness - you are a really nice guy. I look at your picture to day and I go - Oh really Ravi, you want to do this to this nice guy Rory with a beautiful smile? But I had to. This is not your school, not your captive audience, not the Batgap list Rory - this is FFL where the Kali's Pimp does his drive-bys. I don't doubt your spiritual experiences, your spiritual path - you hear me? It's the narrative you have built, it's the abstract, vague philosophical bullshit that you spout that I have an issue against. It's lame for you to concur with Share on me

The wavicles and particles stuff is a pretty close analogy to the properties of a photon. That's it. Not really a big challenge to see us in terms of both wave function and particle function, is it? And seeing everyone inside oneself is not a perception I share with Rory, except to take complete responsibility for all of my personal interactions, which is nearly the same thing. Rather than see it as a statement of ego, I see it as Rory's statement of responsibility.

According to Kaurismäki, he drove through the whole seafront from Genoa to Holland, and eventually settled on Le Havre in northern France, which attracted him with its atmosphere and music scene.[6][7] The script was written in the summer 2009.[8] The names of several characters were chosen as homages to French film icons, such as Arletty and Jacques Becker. The name of the lead character, Marcel Marx, was inspired by Karl Marx. The character had previously appeared in Kaurismäki's 1992 film La Vie de Bohème, where he also was played by André Wilms. The character Monet was inspired by Porfiry Petrovich, the detective from Fyodor Dostoyevsky's Crime and Punishment.[7]

A farmer sprays pesticide containing monocrotophos at Mohanpur village, about 28 miles west of Agartala, the capital of India's northeastern state of Tripura, 07/25/13. (photo: Reuters/Jayanta Dey) Thanks for the Pesticides, America! By Evan Mascagni, Salon 11 August 13 fter eating a school lunch that was made with cooking oil tainted with the toxic pesticide monocrotophos, 23 Indian children were recently killed. While themedia has highlighted the widespread use of highly hazardous chemicals in India and subsequent health effects, what's largely unreported isthe role that the United States has played — and continues to play — in the tragic but preventable deaths from monocrotophos around the world. Monocrotophos is an organophosphorus insecticide developed by Ciba-Geigy (now Novartis) and first registered for use in the United States in 1965.Shortly thereafter, it was discovered to be extremely toxic, and was linked to massive bee die-offs, thousands of bird deaths and extreme risks to human health and the environment. This ultimately led the Environmental Protection Agency to restrictand eventually banits use in 1989. But, even though monocrotophos was prohibited for use domestically, corporations were permitted to continue making the chemical for export only. In fact, in the five years after this insecticide was banned in the U.S., more than 1 million pounds were exported from U.S. ports, often arriving in some of the poorest countries in the world. This practice was and continues to be allowed under the federal law that states, pesticides that are not approved — or registered — for use in the U.S. may be manufactured in the U.S. and exported. In what became the ultimate irony, after the U.S. banned monocrotophos but continued to export it, traces of the chemical were found on produce imported back into the country. The U.S. General Accounting Office examined results of tests on imported produce for traces of unregistered pesticides between 1989-91, and monocrotophos accounted for 69 of the 88 violations it discovered.This finding completed what David Weir and Mark Schapiro originally called the Circle of Poison,in which banned pesticides first harm American workers who help produce them for export, then travel abroad where they are routinely sprayed on workers in the fields and nearby communities, and ultimately return to the U.S. on imported food. Fast forward to 2013, where under current U.S. law it is still perfectly legal for a company to manufacture monocrotophos for export only. While current export data is difficult and costly to obtain and analyze, we do know that for some reason monocrotophos continues to be imported to the United States, but not for domestic use. In general, pesticides not approved for use in the United States are not allowed to be imported for use in the United States, but if that pesticide is coming into the U.S. for the sole purpose of formulation or packaging for export, its arrival is permitted. Whether it's for formulation, packaging or just a pit stop before ultimately landing somewhere else in the world, U.S. Customs and Census import data for 2013 shows that monocrotophos continues to be imported to the United States. The deaths of the 23 Indian schoolchildren happened more than twenty years after the pesticide's ban in the United States. It's time to reexamine our archaic export laws on chemicals not approved for use in the United States. Until we do so, we remain a crucial player in continuing the circle of poison. http://readersupportednews.org/news-section2/312-16/18851-thanks-for-the-pesticides-america

There is no holding onto, because not only is there no attachment to the object, the subject-object ceases to fuse together into Unity Consciousness. Instead, the subject and the object disappear completely, paradoxically allowing each to be fully experienced, in the moment, encompassing potentially, all and any states of consciousness (SOC). Encompassing potentially, all SOC, does not mean that access is theoretically available for anyone. Sure, that, and five bucks, buys you coffee.

By Evan Mascagni, Salon 11 August 13 fter eating a school lunch that was made with cooking oil tainted with the toxic pesticide monocrotophos, 23 Indian children were recently killed. While themedia has highlighted the widespread use of highly hazardous chemicals http://india.blogs.nytimes.com/2013/07/30/bihar-school-deaths-highlight\ -indias-struggle-with-pesticides/?_r=1 in India and subsequent health effects, what's largely unreported isthe role that the United States has played and continues to play in the tragic but preventable deaths from monocrotophos around the world. Monocrotophos is an organophosphorus insecticide developed http://www.pan-uk.org/pestnews/Actives/monocrot.htm by Ciba-Geigy (now Novartis) and first registered for use in the United States in 1965.Shortly thereafter, it was discovered to be extremely toxic, and was linked http://www.wired.com/wiredscience/2013/07/india-dead-children-and-a-dan\ gerous-pesticide/ to massive bee die-offs, thousands of bird deaths and extreme risks to human health and the environment. This ultimately led the Environmental Protection Agency to restrictand eventually banits use in 1989 http://www.fao.org/docrep/w5715e/w5715e04.htm . But, even though monocrotophos was prohibited for use domestically, corporations were permitted to continue making the chemical for export only. In fact, in the five years after this insecticide was banned in the U.S., more than 1 million pounds were exported from U.S. ports http://fasenet.org/pesticide.html , often arriving in some of the poorest countries in the world. This practice was and continues to be allowed under the federal law http://www.epa.gov/oppfead1/international/trade/ that states, pesticides that are not approved or registered for use in the U.S. may be manufactured in the U.S. and exported. In what became the ultimate irony, after the U.S. banned monocrotophos but continued to export it, traces of the chemical were found on produce imported back into the country. The U.S. General Accounting Office examined results of tests on imported produce for traces of unregistered pesticides between 1989-91, and monocrotophos accounted for 69 of the 88 violations http://www.abcbirds.org/abcprograms/policy/toxins/profiles/monocrotopho\ s.html it discovered.This finding completed what David Weir and Mark Schapiro originally called http://books.google.com/books/about/Circle_of_Poison.html?id=Ho4ZiTa2fR\ QC the Circle of Poison,in which banned pesticides first harm American workers who help produce them for export, then travel abroad where they are routinely sprayed on workers in the fields and nearby communities, and ultimately return to the U.S. on imported food. Fast forward to 2013, where under current U.S. law it is still perfectly legal for a company to manufacture monocrotophos for export only. While current export data is difficult and costly to obtain and analyze, we do know that for some reason monocrotophos continues to be imported to the United States, but not for domestic use. In general, pesticides not approved for use in the United States are not allowed to be imported for use in the United

It begins here: And it didn't end because Toots, it didn't end because I didn't bother responding to your last post. 1) I find many of your post uninteresting and not worth answering to, You answered all my posts in this discussion. and 2)Some people here actually have a job and friends and dog (!) to be with and simply don't bother to answer every little point you raise, and 3) Some people here might also be disinterested in endless discussions without an end. Nabby, don't embarrass yourself.
