[FairfieldLife] Indian "colour" at Tango-markkinat!

2014-07-10 Thread cardemais...@yahoo.com [FairfieldLife]

Romani's (gypsies) have been very successful at the Finnish national Tango 
singing
contest Tango-markkinat (tango-market), at Seinäjoki (seinä-joki: wall-river) 
in the
"tango-king" contest. Amadeus Lundberg, Mustalaisviulu (gypsy violin):

This might be the first time when a tango queen contest also has Indian 
"overtones".

 Set a few decades into the future, Molly Woods (Halle Berry) has a somewhat 
complicated life. She's just returned from a one-year solo mission in space, 
during which she was the only astronaut on a space station. Upon her return, 
she has to re-establish a connection with her inventor husband John and her son 
Ethan, and try to become a normal family again. This is somewhat complicated by 
the fact that their family is anything but normal -- Molly was unable to have 
children, so John "built" Ethan, and their "son" is an AI-based robot. 
 
 That's not Molly's only "reentry" problem, however. As her medical tests come

Mike, 

 It appears that the Republicans are setting up Obama to fail so that the next 
GOP candidate can take over the White House.  Romney could possibly make a 
comeback depending on who's the Democratic candidate.  We'll just have to see 
what time unfolds.

Thanks Share.  Had to drive out seperately with my son.  Rest of family came in

 Anyway, son and I took the big 6 mile hike yesterday.  I'll post a picture

   Very nice Edg.
 

 And presented in a succinct readable context.
 

 Do you feel you have a glimpse of this reality?  Experientially, or 
intellectually?
 

 
Do you really need to ask that? Edg's posts are "All in the head, all the 
time." 

Seriously. With Anartaxius' posts, you can occasionally catch a glimpse of real 
experience between the statements. With Edg, only statements. Any "gap" between 
statements is filled with ego.

In my experience, the more certain a person feels the need to be in their 
statements about the nature of advaita, the less likely it is that they've ever 
experienced anything they're speaking about. 


For me, I feel it is something I can relate to on an intellectual level, but I 
think I have a clearer understanding of it than I have had in the past.

 Knowledge has its rising and setting. 
 Consciousness comes into being and goes out of being.
 It is a matter of daily occurrence and observation.
 We all know that sometimes we are conscious and sometimes not.
 When we are not conscious, it appears to us as a darkness or a blank.
 But a jnani is aware of himself as neither conscious nor unconscious, but 
purely aware, a witness to the three states of the mind and their contents
 There is nothing wrong in the idea of a body, nor even in the idea 'I am the 
body'. 
 But limiting oneself to one body only is a mistake.
 In reality all existence, every form, is my own, within my consciousness.
 I cannot tell what I am because words can describe only what I am not.
 I am, and because I am, all is.
 But I am beyond consciousness and, therefore, in consciousness I cannot say 
what I am.
 Yet, I am.

Dear Friends;  I'd rather be secretary. But were I chairman I'd
start with the Mission Statement then develop metrics around how we
are doing with that which everyone can check and see.  Establish
written job descriptions for everyone and job reviews for everyone
every quarter.  Bring more metric in to jobs and hire on merit. Look
much more to performance and a lot less to fealty.   Have job
assessments to help people do their jobs better.   Raja Hagelin
already is establishing a flow chart that allows everyone to see
where they are at within the movement community.  I'd keep him around
working on that.  Make the financial books entirely transparent now
for everybody to see.  Break down so much of the culture of
specialness within the movement and elevate the practitioner
meditator in the movement.  Bring meditators in to the large group
meditations of the Domes.  Be a lot more magnanimous than the current
guy who is unable to use the inclusive words “thank you” and “we”
with hardly anyone.  I am no fan of Mao but I do appreciate some of
the corporate organizational effort and leadership in his quotations
for the clarity of relationship he established between everyone
moving forward as to how they were included and fit in at all levels.
Effective corporate leadership is also in cheer-leading the

Maharishi's passing.  Were I suddenly to become chairman I should

 Set a few decades into the future, Molly Woods (Halle Berry) has a somewhat 
complicated life. She's just returned from a one-year solo mission in space, 
during which she was the only astronaut on a space station. Upon her return, 
she has to re-establish a connection with her inventor husband John and her son 
Ethan, and try to become a normal family again. This is somewhat complicated by 
the fact that their family is anything but normal -- Molly was unable to have 
children, so John "built" Ethan, and their "son" is an AI-based robot. 
 
 That's not Molly's only "reentry" problem, however. As her medical tests come 
back, her best friend and doctor with the agency that sent her into space 
informs her that she's pregnant.  
 
 As used in the show, the word "extant" has two meanings:
 1. still in existence
 2. the opposite of extinct

Share,

I casted the horoscope for Amal Alamuddin and it shows two debilitated
planets, the Moon and Mars. Without having the precise time, I can use the
Bhrigu Nandi Nadi technique as an alternate method of analysis.

The Moon refers to her mother which shows that she comes from a minority group
of people in Lebanon. Since the Moon is alone by itself, the mother would more
likely face many challenges during her life.

Mars, which is debilitated and in retrogression, refers to the potential
spouse. Given this indication, it would appear that George Clooney would back
out of this marriage, which he has done in his other previous relationships.
If he goes along with the marriage, Clooney will more likely face many
obstacles in his life, perhaps even bad health.

in Ayurveda. In February 1985, as part of our course, we were invited to join a 
group of eminent vaidyas (Ayurvedic doctors) in Brasilia, for a two-week

I was checking out the FFL web viewer to see if it still worked and saw this
complete non-sequitur flash by and the science writer in me just had to
comment, for several reasons:

1. The statistic is false -- over 5 million people worldwide die every year
from smoking-related diseases.

2. The "either quit smoking or..." phrase is retarded. Last I checked, anyone
who dies quits smoking. :-)

3. According to the respected British medical journal "The Lancet," there is a
much more critical risk factor for early death that people don't know about.
The Lancet researchers call this cause of death a "global pandemic," and state
clearly that -- worldwide -- it causes far more deaths from all causes every
year than smoking. Furthermore, I would imagine that few -- if any -- people on
this forum smoke, but most -- if not *all* -- of the people on this forum
exhibit the behavior that has been shown to be a greater risk factor for early
death than smoking -- inactivity. If you sit for more than eight hours per day,
you are medically "inactive," and risking death.

You do know in ayurveda there are different exercise programs for each
dosha? Just like diet not one kind of exercise fits all.

It has long been out that one of the reasons obesity is on the rise,
in kids at least, is lack of exercise and inactivity associated with
video games and other electronic media. Guess it applies to adults
also. Nothing new there.

I was checking out the FFL web viewer to see if it still worked
and saw this complete non-sequitur flash by and the science
writer in me just had to comment, for several reasons:

1. The statistic is false -- over 5 million people worldwide die
every year from smoking-related diseases.

2. The "either quit smoking or..." phrase is retarded. Last I
checked, anyone who dies quits smoking. :-)

3. According to the respected British medical journal "The
Lancet," there is a much more critical risk factor for early
death that people don't know about. The Lancet researchers call
this cause of death a "global pandemic," and state clearly that
-- worldwide -- it causes far more deaths from all causes every
year than smoking. Furthermore, I would imagine that few -- if
any -- people on this forum smoke, but most -- if not *all* -- of
the people on this forum exhibit the behavior that has been shown
to be a greater risk factor for early death than smoking --
inactivity. If you sit for more than eight hours per day, you are
medically "inactive," and risking death.
