But if there is anything to these tales I doubt if the saint *physically* levitated. Ie, a Kodak Brownie would not have recorded his flight. A more likely explanation (though still demanding a lot of credulity) is that people witnessed his astral vehicle. He was, after all, spending most of his time in prayer and contemplation - ideal conditions for having an out-of-the-body experience. Perhaps the veneration surrounding the holy man raised the witnesses' own level of consciousness so that they could sense his astral form. More plausible? On that theme: do TM meditators in the Dome (sidhas or not) ever report having an OBE? Someone on my flying course did, she had all sorts of weird adventures like that. I just got a head ache and forgot where I was, a sort of Out of Mind Experience where my body wandered about on its own.

With technical accuracy like this, sooner or later they have just got to come up with a practical, testable theory about how consciousness is formed in the brain and how it gives us our sense of us looking out at the world. Or how the brain is formed in consciousness… You're a 'Cart before the horse' guy huh? That would be a paradigm shift to end them all! Culturally, we’re probably a ways off from that paradigm shift. But any enlightened person has already made it. That people have different experiences in different states of consciousness doesn't mean the brain didn't give rise to those states too. On 8/28/2014 2:33 PM, salyavin808 wrote: Sure, it's still a mystery how the hard problem is to be resolved but to prove the mystics right you would need to do a complete search of the brain and not be able to find any evidence that consciousness exists or is controlled from there. But we have plenty of evidence of that already, like where it happens (mostly) how to switch it off etc. it would be bizzarro world extraordinaire if we couldn't finish the job. Everything that exists is made of the same stuff obeying the same laws. Consciousness looks like it's an evolutionary Johnny-come-lately. Unless the paradigms really do shift and everything we know is wrong! In Eye to Eye, Ken Wilber applies his spectrum of consciousness model to epistemology. Epistemology is the science of what can be known - knowledge, and how we get it. Attempting to investigate the realm of spirit, for example, with the eye of flesh, that is, the eye that perceives only sensory phenomena, will not yield real knowledge of the realm of spirit, which is not disclosed to sensory perception. There is an old Zen saying: 'The eye cannot see itself.' Sounds convenient for him. Doesn't prove there is a spiritual realm though does, it just refuses to allow us to speculate.

Where does a supremely random process leave the theory that consciousness is something apart from the brain? Was it hanging around in space waiting for us to evolve the ability to utilise its usefulness? Or are you going to get all religious and claim that, like it says in SCI, the unified field guided us towards greater happiness? The evidence doesn't point to that, even slightly.

Whatever the level of consciousness, desires will be on that level. So we don't have to worry much about desires. What we have to look into is what we deserve. We don't have to worry for what we have; we have to worry for what we are. And as we are in an evolving context, more and more we will have of everything. More important is what we are. The world is to us as we are to the world. The world is celestial if we have the eye to see it; the world is different from us if we have that level of consciousness; the world is part and parcel of our own Self at another level of consciousness. So it depends on what we are; it depends on where we are, and then everything is for us on that level. Everything. So we have to take care of ourself, and then the world will take of itself for us. It's beautiful. We just take care of ourself, and what the world will be to us will be taken care of by the world. What we will be to the world, will be taken care of again by the world if we have well taken care of ourself. Only from small 's' we have to be big 'S' and that is all that is to be done. Self-realization is the key to all glories in life. Everything is available, only we have to start using it. Everything is there -- infinity is there ready for us to use it. It's there. Better start using it. It's there. Unboundedness of life is there. Start living it. And we have a systematic procedure that is a procedure-less procedure, a pathless path. We want to cognize and accomplish infinity, but that infinity is so close to us; it's permeating every fiber of us, every fabric of us, it's there. It's not that it's so far away beyond everything. That which is beyond everything is contained in everything, sustained in everything. The Self is composed of that. That is the essential constituent of life, so we don't have to go far beyond. We just look within. And there we are in infinite value, in the unboundedness. That is the home of everything; That is the goal of everything; everything is coming on to That just like the ocean is the home of all the rivers. All prosperity, all knowledge, all power, all glory keeps coming on to the infinity. All the channels of life and living proceed on towards infinity, and that infinity is our own Self. Therefore, we don't have to run here, there or anywhere. We just be where we are, and then everything will come on to us as rivers naturally come on to the ocean. Only we have to be aware of our … oceanhood, if it's a right word. We are an ocean, only we have to be aware of that ocean-like unboundedness. That is all that is necessary. Be and [since] all the beings have their existence from It, in It, and all are proceeding onto It what we find is that all the enumerable channels of life keep creeping onto us, and we are then the well-wisher, the supporter of everything, and everything supports us. It's a mutual give-and-take. So why not take care of ourself, and then everything will be taken care of in a very, very nice way? This is our message which we want to whisper to every man everywhere, 'Now, come on, take care of yourself and everything will be glowing.' If the bulb does not take care of the light within itself, it cannot emit light. If the self cannot take care of the unbounded possibility within itself, it can't radiate that infinite, that unbounded glory of life, that grace of God. No, it can't. Everything will radiate what it is, that's all. And, therefore, it is very, very vital that every meditator is aware of this fact that as he takes care of his own Self more and more, all the streams of growth, progress, achievement and fulfillment will rush on to him just as all the rivers rush on to the ocean and bring everything from every side at his feet.

Re: [FairfieldLife] Embodied experience?
Card, I don't know what your sister is into, but it doesn't sound to me as if either of you understands what synesthesia is. That's what happens when information perceived by one sense triggers a simultaneous perception in another, unrelated sense but with no direct input that could cause this second sensory perception. For example, you look at a painting and it makes you taste something. None of this as I understand it has anything to do with the concept of embodied experience. Some people are using that phrase as a buzzword for virtual environments in which sensorimotor technology is used to provoke the sensation of feeling or smell or hearing. That's not really synesthesia because something mechanical is actually triggering these perceptions.

He cannot prove that consciousness exists in the physical world - it is a supposition - an uncertain belief. The problem, however, is that no evidence for consciousness exists in the physical world. Physical events are simply mute as to whether it is “like something” to be what they are. The only thing in this universe that attests to the existence of consciousness is consciousness itself; the only clue to subjectivity, as such, is subjectivity. Absolutely nothing about a brain, when surveyed as a physical system, suggests that it is a locus of experience. Other than the observable fact that it's where memories, dreams, thoughts and perceptions can be seen to occur and - if you've been reading these posts - even recorded. Where exactly, did you observe this fact, or did you just read about it or hear about by someone you like? Consciousness is an emergent phenomena that requires a certain number of brain cells to be working. It seems to start in the reticular activating system of the brain and involve many other parts to give us the illusion we call consciousness. It's an illusion because there is no central processing unit like the one we call us. But we know how to affect and change it and even how to switch it off which doesn't seem like the properties of some sort of other stuff. It could be an illusion that the physical brain creates consciousness, instead of the other way around. The entire cosmos could be an illusion. If appearances derived through one sensory channel appear contradictory, it is natural to appeal to other senses for corroboration. When they contradict, which sense shall we accept as reliable? If we observe the realist closely, we will find that at some times he relies principally on his eyes and, at other times, on his ears. When different senses corroborate an error, we are still more baffled. The realist is unaware that he has no criterion of the reality or unreality of objects experienced. He has faith in the reality of movie action while it lasts, otherwise he could not really enjoy it. He has faith in his own action, otherwise how could he really enjoy life. But how reliable is such faith? So far, it's getting more and more likely that the role and function - even evolution - of consciousness will be discovered by scientific activity. Everything else is eventually, it seems that you just /want/ consciousness to be something different than everything else. Why that might be I can't imagine but I still don't have an explanation or an argument as to what it might be if it isn't made out of the same stuff as everything else.

It's beautiful. We just take care of ourself, and what the world will be to us will be taken care of by the world. What we will be to the world, will be taken care of again by the world if we have well taken care of ourself. Only from small 's' we have to be big 'S' and that is all that is to be done. Self-realization is the key to all glories in life. Everything is available, only we have to start using it. Everything is there -- infinity is there ready for us to use it. It's there.

Re: [FairfieldLife] More cool brain stuff...
That people have different experiences in different states of consciousness doesn't mean the brain didn't give rise to those states too. On 8/28/2014 2:33 PM, salyavin808 wrote: Sure, it's still a mystery how the hard problem is to be resolved but to prove the mystics right you would need to do a complete search of the brain and not be able to find any evidence that consciousness exists or is controlled from there. But we have plenty of evidence of that already, like where it happens (mostly) how to switch it off etc. it would be bizzarro world extraordinaire if we couldn't finish the job. Everything that exists is made of the same stuff obeying the same laws. Consciousness looks like it's an evolutionary Johnny-come-lately. Unless the paradigms really do shift and everything we know is wrong! In Eye to Eye, Ken Wilber applies his spectrum of consciousness model to epistemology. Epistemology is the science of what can be known - knowledge, and how we get it. Attempting to investigate the realm of spirit, for example, with the eye of flesh, that is, the eye that perceives only sensory phenomena, will not yield real knowledge of the realm of spirit, which is not disclosed to sensory perception. There is an old Zen saying: 'The eye cannot see itself.' On 8/29/2014 1:17 AM, salyavin808 wrote: Sounds convenient for him. Doesn't prove there is a spiritual realm though does, it just refuses to allow us to speculate. Consciousness is the field. Simply put, no objects exist independently of their being known. There is no place in this new kind of physics both for field and matter, for the field is the only reality. - Albert Einstein You do realise that this quote completely undermines your argument that there are two things present? There is only the field, everything else is an illusion, not real, yet not unreal - because it is presented to us. Even if we actually consult real people, are they not subject to the same errors as we? Cannot people be in agreement and yet in error? For centuries people agreed that the earth was flat. If others share our error, how can we profit by consulting them for proof? Yet, past experiences may have been erroneous consistently.

Apparently the informant MJ paid money to get the Primordial Sound Technique AFTER he got kicked off the MIU campus.

Correction: Apparently the informant MJ paid money to get the Primordial Sound Technique AFTER he got kicked off the MIU campus. So, he did go to see Deepak, whose father was a cardiologist, for his mental health, but now he doesn't want to talk about it, because he paid money to an endocrinologist to get another meditation technique, instead of seeing a cult-exit counselor. Go figure. You research is as sloppy as ever Willy. So, the informant MJ stopped doing the TM technique, for no apparent reason, after twelve years of practice and then went to an endocrinologist for another meditation technique, paying him good money, but my research is sloppy. Go figure.

Whatever the level of consciousness, desires will be on that level. So we don't have to worry much about desires. What we have to look into is what we deserve. We don't have to worry for what we have; we have to worry for what we are. And as we are in an evolving context, more and more we will have of everything. More important is what we are. The world is to us as we are to the world. The world is celestial if we have the eye to see it; the world is different from us if we have that level of consciousness; the world is part and parcel of our own Self at another level of consciousness. So it depends on what we are; it depends on where we are, and then everything is for us on that level. Everything. So we have to take care of ourself, and then the world will take of itself for us. It's beautiful. We just take care of ourself, and what the world will be to us will be taken care of by the world. What we will be to the world, will be taken care of again by the world if we have well taken care of ourself. Only from small 's' we have to be big 'S' and that is all that is to be done. Self-realization is the key to all glories in life. Everything is available, only we have to start using it. Everything is there -- infinity is there ready for us to use it. It's there. Better start using it. It's there. Unboundedness of life is there. Start living it. And we have a systematic procedure that is a procedure-less procedure, a pathless path. We want to cognize and accomplish infinity, but that infinity is so close to us; it's permeating every fiber of us, every fabric of us, it's there. It's not that it's so far away beyond everything. That which is beyond everything is contained in everything, sustained in everything. The Self is composed of that. That is the essential constituent of life, so we don't have to go far beyond. We just look within. And there we are in infinite value, in the unboundedness. That is the home of everything; That is the goal of everything; everything is coming on to That just like the ocean is the home of all the rivers. All prosperity, all knowledge, all power, all glory keeps coming on to the infinity. All the channels of life and living proceed on towards infinity, and that infinity is our own Self. Therefore, we don't have to run here, there or anywhere. We just be where we are, and then everything will come on to us as rivers naturally come on to the ocean. Only we have to be aware of our … oceanhood, if it's a right word. We are an ocean, only we have to be aware of that ocean-like unboundedness. That is all that is necessary. Be and [since] all the beings have their existence from It, in It, and all are proceeding onto It what we find is that all the enumerable channels of life keep creeping onto us, and we are then the well-wisher, the supporter of everything, and everything supports us. It's a mutual give-and-take. So why not take care of

However, Why should you and these other absolute TM-haters who you seem to want to speak for think for a moment to even be acceptable at a place at the local working communal mental health discussion table or in the working committees when your avowed and public aim here is to destroy TM and the TM movement?You pose wanting to discuss something while really quite obviously you deny our legitimacy as a community to exist and would rather unpin grenades and throw them in the room where we are. You work tirelessly in the public domain for TM's destruction, you are a complete apostate, you are not part of the meditating community, and you are not going to be in these working meetings or on these working committees around mental health; but then let me offer: which more essentially [pertinent points] would you like to see done short of the destruction of a community you do not like? As opposed to just your usual hate carping of the TM community, if you come up with some actionable points [where the rubber meets the road, as they say], then I should consider representing what you have to say to good people who live here who are actively working on communal mental health here.

What we will be to the world, will be taken care of again by the world if we have well taken care of ourself. Only from small 's' we have to be big 'S' and that is all that is to be done. Self-realization is the key to all glories in life. Everything is available, only we have to start using it. Everything is there -- infinity is there ready for us to use it. It's there. Better start using it. It's there. Unboundedness of life is there. Start living it. And we have a systematic procedure that is a procedure-less procedure, a pathless path. We want to cognize and accomplish infinity, but that infinity is so close to us; it's permeating every fiber of us, every fabric of us, it's there. It's not that it's so far away beyond everything. That which is beyond everything is contained in everything, sustained in everything. The Self is composed of that. That is the essential constituent of life, so we don't have to go far beyond. We just look within. And there we are in infinite value, in the unboundedness. That is the home of everything; That is the goal of everything; everything is coming on to That just like the ocean is the home of all the rivers. All prosperity, all knowledge, all power, all glory keeps coming on to the infinity. All the channels of life and living proceed on towards infinity, and that infinity is our own Self. Therefore, we don't have to run here, there or anywhere. We just be where we are, and then everything will come on to us as rivers naturally come on to the ocean. Only we have to be aware of our … oceanhood, if it's a right word. We are an ocean, only we have to be aware of that ocean-like unboundedness. That is all that is necessary. Be and [since] all the beings have their existence from It, in It, and all are proceeding onto It what we find is that all the enumerable channels of life keep creeping onto us, and we are then the well-wisher, the supporter of everything, and everything supports us. It's a mutual give-and-take. So why

Nablusoss; Good advice for these pitiable souls here claiming transcending meditation does not work. Like our friend MJ? Saying that there is no transcendence? 'No mantra-no thought' does not exist and “TM doesn't quiet the mind”. What a sad and pitiful sack. That surely would be 'depressing' while in the face of others quite spiritual experience with it. Only just considering the Source and then someone apostate as some source it is no wonder the guy has gone so mean on us. Transcendentalists certainly know better by experience. MJ, really do us all a favor and get your transcending meditation checked, sit with some saints, beware the company you keep and beware what you put your attention on, and sit more with It in quiet-time; that space, that Unified Field between thoughts where thoughts come from. MJ's got more spiritual practice to do obviously. And, he wants to be in on the mental health conversation? Om ha, ha, ha! MJ, please pick yourself up off the floor. I hope the best for you.

Re: [FairfieldLife] Embodied experience?
I would agree with this, synaesthesia seems to represent cross-wiring of the nervous system. There has been a trend in academia of late creating all sorts of terminology to give verbal meaning and definition to what is essentially visual awareness in the arts, such as in painting, photography, sculpture, etc., and the language is often quite pompous and erudite sounding, seemingly giving sense and depth and meaning to a work of art, which might just be a piece of crap. 'Embodied experience' is a term that normally would be found in discussions of ignorance versus enlightenment. It doesn't seem to me to be a very useful term for describing art. A person who looks at a work of art has an experience. Not much to go on there. Dressing it up in high sounding phrases doesn't add much, as viewing or listening to art is essentially a non-verbal perception. It is our visceral response to art that is central theme, the art itself does not contain these things, something in the art triggers these responses in our awareness, the greatness of the artist determines how well this is accomplished; we do not need to be told that it does this; if a description is required, probably it is not art, but a pretence to seem as art. The terms are for art critics and professors, a true artist can just ignore the whole thing. ---In FairfieldLife@yahoogroups.com, turquoiseb@... wrote : Card, I don't know what your sister is into, but it doesn't sound to me as if either of you understands what synesthesia is. That's what happens when information perceived by one sense triggers a simultaneous perception in another, unrelated sense but with no direct input that could cause this second sensory perception. For example, you look at a painting and it makes you taste something. None of this as I understand it has anything to do with the concept of embodied experience. Some people are using that phrase as a buzzword for virtual environments in which sensorimotor technology is used to provoke the sensation of feeling or smell or hearing.

[FairfieldLife] To Stuck in the Dome
Stuck, you show your true colors with this vile reply to my message. I reach out legitimately offering that those of us who left TM and those who still practice join together for the good of those currently practicing who are at risk of suicide and other mental health problems. And this is your response? I don't give a damn whether the TM community survives or not. That is a non-issue to me. What I do care about are the TM'ers who are at risk for mental health and suicide. But you who claim to be all for world peace and enlightenment refuse to even consider an alliance that benefits those at risk because we don't do TM. Obviously the methods of the TMO and its offerings of meditation aren't doing the trick or the problem wouldn't exist. But you stick with what you know that includes attitudes that exude such unfortunate energy. I have no excuse since I am not a TM'er, but you as a follower of Marshy should be above this kind of stuff shouldn't you? In the meantime those of us outside the Movement will do what we can for those in it to help them get stable, those who are suffering so much they contemplate suicide. And as I told Dr Dummy who turned himself into a bowl of pasta, when you wake up from your self induced TM soporific we who got out first will welcome you with open arms and give you all the help you need to get clean and TM sober. Dear Dear Mr. Hamas MJ; As others point out here you are quite out of touch. In fact everything is on the table. However, Why should you and these other absolute TM-haters who you seem to want to speak for think for a moment to even be acceptable at a place at the local working communal mental health discussion table or in the working committees when your avowed and public aim here is to destroy TM and the TM movement?You pose wanting to discuss something while really quite obviously you deny our legitimacy as a community to exist and would rather unpin grenades and throw them in the room where we are. You work tirelessly in the public domain for TM's destruction, you are a complete apostate, you are not part of the meditating community, and you are not going to be in these working meetings or on these working committees around mental health; but then let me offer: which more essentially [pertinent points] would you like to see done short of the destruction of a community you do not like? As opposed to just your usual hate carping of the TM community, ifyou come up with some actionable points [where the rubber meets the road, as they say], thenI should consider representing what you have to say to good people who live here who are actively working on communal mental health here. Kindly at your Service, -Buck in the Dome

He was, after all, spending most of his time in prayer and contemplation - ideal conditions for having an out-of-the-body experience. Perhaps the veneration surrounding the holy man raised the witnesses' own level of consciousness so that they could sense his astral form. More plausible? On that theme: do TM meditators in the Dome (sidhas or not) ever report having an OBE? Someone on my flying course did, she had all sorts of weird adventures like that.

Don't worry, it'll work for a few but any stubborn cases will get blamed on karma, collective stress or even us being in the wrong yuga. I've heard it all before. It's the basic problem with fundamentalist thinking, everything has to be filtered through your views but if something doesn't work out there has to be an extra reason as it can't be what you've done because that's necessarily perfect.

Re: [FairfieldLife] Revelation and Chernobyl?
No one specifically. It's just kind of interesting that so many are interested in a *new age* or *age of enlightenment* etc. and we're all waiting for it to happen or contributing in our own efforts in some way or just sitting back and watching and wondering how and when it's going to unfold and who's going to get the *credit* for *making it happen*. I remember when M said that *we* would take the credit for ushering in the age of enlightenment.It's all laid out in Daniel and John's Revelation recorded 2500 to 2000 years ago. However , it does require not only reading but some study to understand it. Perhaps TM and M are instruments of the Divine play. But the ball appears to be rolling down hill and picking up speed...rapidly. Daniel's vision ends with a rock(son of man) striking the feet of a great idol which represented the empires of the world and time and it then collapses and the age ends and a new one begins as that *rock* expands to become a great mountain.

Whatever the level of consciousness, desires will be on that level. So we don't have to worry much about desires. What we have to look into is what we deserve. We don't have to worry for what we have; we have to worry for what we are. And as we are in an evolving context, more and more we will have of everything. More important is what we are.

Better start using it. It's there. Unboundedness of life is there. Start living it. And we have a systematic procedure that is a procedure-less procedure, a pathless path. We want to cognize and accomplish infinity, but that infinity is so close to us; it's permeating every fiber of us, every fabric of us, it's there. It's not that it's so far away beyond everything. That which is beyond everything is contained in everything, sustained in everything. The Self is composed of that. That is the essential constituent of life, so we don't have to go far beyond. We just look within. And there we are in infinite value, in the unboundedness. That is the home of everything; That is the goal of everything; everything is coming on to That just like the ocean is the home of all the rivers. All prosperity, all knowledge, all power, all glory keeps coming on to the infinity. All the channels of life and living proceed on towards infinity, and that infinity is our own Self. Therefore, we don't have to run here, there or anywhere. We just be where we are, and then everything will come on to us as rivers naturally come on to the ocean.
