[FairfieldLife] Vic Stenger breaks on through...

2014-08-30 Thread salyavin808
A fine thinker passes away, I've got one of his books Quantum Gods: Creation, 
Chaos and the Search for Cosmic Consciousness in which he explains the 
incompatability of new age beliefs with actual hard physics.
 

 He never had the high profile that other campaigning atheists have, maybe 
because he wasn't interested in telling them they are wrong but just in 
teaching them what's really going on. And there isn't any point in 
confrontation really as you can't reason somebody out of something they weren't 
reasoned into, and the cleverer people are the more wiggle room they'll find, 
but it's interesting to read nonetheless. Knowing what is technically possible 
will help form an opinion if you are still sitting on the philosophical fence.

Yes, WOW was why.  :-) I took a picture of Mount Lassen yesterday, from far

this area, and the mountain stands out. I wanted to get to know it better. 
Climbing the mountain is a pure subject/object relationship, and the mountain 
calls the shots. The climbing is a sort of devotion, to the laws the mountain 
puts into place. Lose the devotion, and suffer the consequences, quickly.


At first, in the parking lot, looking up to the farthest ridge, seeing these 
ant-like forms working forward, single file, and thinking, yeah, I want to be 
up there, too!. To be in the cold and height, felt very pure, very clean, and 
uncluttered, in every sense. Like walking into, and through, an achingly crisp, 
deep blue, and rock silence, leaving all trees and plants behind, adjusting to 
the lower oxygen (30% less than at sea level), consciously breathing more 
deeply, and hiking v-e-r-y slowly, and  steadily into thinner air - even the 
discomfort was minimal, compared to the awe and beauty, of being two miles up, 
and still grounded. Everything is massive, up there, like a god's home, crags 
of rock hundreds of feet tall, steep slopes a thousand feet down, and peaks in 
every direction. Starkly alive, and very, very clear air. 

It was also *great* to descend, with each 200 feet or so, a source of more air.

Thank you. I am writing this note of thanks thru my tears. The beauty of Robert 
Johnson's voice brings his soul directly in contact with any good listener. I 
came to Johnson, and some of the other American Blues Greats as a boy in the

resonated with me, but having little money, I was limited to buying a mono 
record player...a portable, at that. The needle was as scratchy as the

later traveled West, to the Filmore for that.

Thanks again, pure beauty, down to the soul.

From: David Orme-Johnson davi...@earthlink.net

Subject: My experience on the Invincible America Assembly

Dear Family and Friends,
 
I feel so lucky to have had some role to play in pioneering scientific research 
on the technologies of enlightenment that Maharishi has brought into the modern 
world, but even luckier to have had the opportunity to do subjective research 
on enlightenment. Although I have written a lot about the scientific research, 
I haven’t written much at all about my subjective experiences. So here is 
something on it.
 
Rhoda and I have spent the last four summers in Fairfield attending the 
Invincible America Assembly, which has been a continuous group of 1,000 to 
2,000  meditators and Vedic Pundits doing long TM and TM-Sidhi programs every 
day since 2006, with the purpose of culturing enlightenment for us individually 
and invincibility for America. Invincibility means a shield of coherence in 
collective consciousness for America.
 

 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 




The Maharishi Patanjali Golden Dome of Pure Knowledge.
I sit over to the right front. We sit on foam and stacks of foam for Yogic 
Flying.
 
An inspiring part of the daily program is reading of experiences by course 
participants, which Maharishi would comment on, and which is now expertly done 
by Dr. Bevan Morris and Dr. Doug Birx, bringing out fine details of the 
mechanics of how enlightenment evolves, elucidating the criteria and milestones 
in that evolutionary process, and putting the experiences into the context of 
the Vedic literature, verifying how our personal experiences correspond to 
descriptions in the classical texts of enlightenment.
 
Here is my experience, read out today.
 
Experiences of the Invincible America Assembly, August 29, 2014
David W. Orme-Johnson, Ph.D.
 
Vessel of Bliss. My main experience during program these days is of my body 
being a hollow vessel filled with the self-effulgent light and bliss. When I 
look for a boundary to it, I don’t find any distinct edge. It seems to extend 
indefinitely, although it seems to be located mostly within about arm’s length 
around my body, a kind of fuzzy cloud of bliss that is accompanied by soft 
pulsating tones in my ears. When I try to follow my bliss-field away from my 
body I have the sense that I am enlivening it. I think it is always faintly 
there at any distance, and that it becomes much more present wherever I put 
attention on it. I think that to find oneself far in the distance one has to 
put one’s attention at a distance, but then it is no longer at a distance, it 
is Here.
 
Yogic flying is what pumps up the bliss. When I sit on the stacks to fly and 
begin to settle, almost immediately a flash of bliss as if propels me into the 
air, my body shaking and twisting as my spine reorganizes itself into a more 
perfect configuration. What I experience is not the stress going out but the 
bliss coming in. Each twist and turn creates a delightful feeling of 
transparency and health throughout my spine and body, akin to how one feels 
during a good stretch, only much more intense.
 
During flying I become aware of two things coexisting, the activity of the 
bubbling bliss from the hopping and a contrasting non-active underlying silent 
continuum of non-changing consciousness. As the hopping continues, I become 
aware that the non-active continuum becomes more salient-- how to say 
it--louder, of greater amplitude, a veritable inner roar of the hum of the 
universe. “Silent” doesn’t do it justice. It is a heatless, self-effulgent 
rolling boil. Sometimes I find that I have not moved for some time, absorbed in 
it, hardly breathing, with each faint breath creating an ebb and flow of the 
most profound  soul-grounding sense of well-being. All the synonyms of “bliss” 
apply: ecstasy, heaven, paradise, enjoyment, happiness, delight, pleasure, 
harmony, but none of these do it justice. It is simpler, more profound, a 
superbly grounded feeling, Mother is at home. Sometimes there are not two 
things but only the single continuum of the bliss with me hopping within it. Is 
it active? Is it silence?--I just AM. I am so happy to be here, so happy that 
this is me, my Self, and so so grateful to Maharishi and Guru Dev.
 
Intellectually, I know that my body is a bag filled with organs, tissues, blood 
vessels, etc. and I asked myself how does this objective reality correspond to 
the subjective experience that the body is a hollow vessel filled with the 
continuum of consciousness? The answer that occurred to me is that 
consciousness is primary, and that it projects all the tissues and organs of 
the body as an individual by which universal consciousness can be experienced 
itself as a localized person. I think that is one of the main points of Dr. 
Nader’s book Human Physiology - Expression of Veda and the Vedic Literature.

You poor illiterate - Ganesh's birthday (Ganaesh Jayanti ) is celebrated

 Yes, interesting. I love the man with the long arms and the matches. His 
little pieces are like small exposes or revelations of a moment or event  - 
not exactly Botticelli or Raphael but evocative and worth a look at. I can't

I don't get it. You don't provide any substance for why someone should 
disregard Maharishi's teaching. You have made the point plenty of 
times that TM is not the perfect solution for everything. Yep. Anyone 
who has done it for any length of time recognizes that.



However, what is it about the lives of those here on FFL, who don't do 
TM, that I should emulate? If it is true that TM practice will not 
lead to the fulfillment of all desires, then what will? You are not 
making your case. As for me being some brainwashed TM fool, my life 
experience makes that an automatic fiction.


It's obviously a cry for help, Jim. But, when they won't even consult a 
cult-exit counselor after getting kicked out, do you think they are 
going to listen to experts like us? You are probably their last hope. 
Remember, we are talking about two guys that quit TM and one then went 
over to the /Zen Master Rama/ and the other then went to see /the Deepak 
Chopra/. There's no telling how much money they spent on various 
techniques that they didn't even practice. Go figure.

Good point. But given the fact that he was a proven liar, who in their 
right mind would cherry pick little gems of his dubious wisdom to base 
their life, philosophy or criticism of others on?


It is critical to work hard, and diligently, for enlightenment, the 
fulfillment of all desires.


This is made up baloney that in fact has nothing to do with liar 
Marshy's so-called teachings. He rooked Westerners into supporting his 
lifestyle with the promise that TM would solve all ills. Look at the 
siddhi posters I put out here recently. Claiming that TM would fulfill 
all desires and aspirations. What manure.


And you also have no clue as to how hard I have worked or how diligently.

Mistake I made was using TM as a tool AS WE WERE TAUGHT TO USE IT FOR 
THE PURPOSES IT WAS SUPPOSED TO BE USED FOR. (Enlightenment, 
fulfillment of desires, levitation and other supernormal abilities and 
so on.) Problems? Get your meditation checked. Do an extra set of 
asanas. Here's a new set of pranayama. Worse problems? Get your sutra 
practice checked. Manure and doesn't solve a damn thing.


But I see you as lazy and vindictive

But by your own POV, the world is as YOU are, thus you must also be 
lazy and vindictive, plus suffering from the inability to see through 
the TM illusion you allowed yourself to create ages ago.


But one day you will wake up from the dream and those of us who woke 
up first will be ready and willing to help you along and get you back 
on your feet. And we won't send you to a Vedic head shrinker either.

 Long treatises do not provide answers in this case, but they may help forge a 
path to an answer. The material world and the spiritual world are really the 
same world, there is not an iota of difference between them, the difference is 
in the imagination. One can say the absolute is solidified because it never 
changes, and the material world is always changing, always flowing. The 
application of a single idea to solve the mystery of life is basically a

 No it wouldn't. The movement loves the publicity they get from DL but most of

 I was working for the TMO still when DL came out of the closet and they were

TM doesn't turn everyone into a bliss bunny is all we need to know. I'd hardly 
be here if it did.
 

 I like his art actually, I think it's got a nice dislocating feel to it, like 
his excellent early movies before he got lazy it makes you wonder what's gone

Provocative stuff. His work is well done, and he puts a lot of skill and effort

 You seem to be confusing a few things here. You revile DL because he meditates

pieces? Do you even know? I think he is such an antithesis to what Sal 
describes as the treacly and over-done rainbows and golden hued cartoonish 
nature of so much of what the Movement puts out there. He is a breath of fresh 
air, a real individual who has been David Lynch before he started meditating 
and being a spokesman for the Movement and he will be David Lynch well after.

 No it wouldn't. The movement loves the publicity they get from DL but most of 
his work wouldn't fit in very well with the flowers and saccharine and treacly

 I was working for the TMO still when DL came out of the closet and they were 
really excited about having a major Hollywood director on the team. I said they 
should show a season of his movies on the Marshy channel as a tribute and they 
thought it was a great idea. Then they saw them
 

 DL's excuses for how his films can be so disturbing when he's so filled with 
this enlightened bliss never rang true to me. I don't think he needs an excuse, 
TM doesn't turn everyone into a bliss bunny is all we need to know. I'd hardly 
be here if it did.
 

 I like his art actually, I think it's got a nice dislocating feel to it, like 
his excellent early movies before he got lazy it makes you wonder what's gone 
wrong when you watch, vaguely disturbing. Good stuff. If it shows in London

FFL might make for a good episode of Black Mirror, a UK TV anthology 
which takes on the dark side of tech.  I particularly liked the 2nd 
episode of season one.  Why it takes so long for some of these shows to 
make it to the US is beyond me.  Comparatively though, US TV looks 
pretty bad.  Black Mirror did have a run on DirectTV last year in the US.


Speaking of which I just finished off all 10 episodes of Robert 
Rodriguez's From Dusk Till Dawn.  I was a little disappointed but not 
surprised that the arc sort of fell a bit flat after episode six.  
Rodriguez is used to making movie and a TV series is a different 
animal.  It was like he had about six or seven ideas for episodes but 
perhaps someone demanded ten.  This is another reason why I like the 
foreign six episode series.  Two of which I finished off this week 
including Australia's Secrets and Lies and the UK's Happy Valley.  
Both were on Netflix as was From Dusk Till Dawn.


As for FFL, well it is the dog days of summer and things may perk up a 
bit more next week.  Then we have the graffiti trolls who behave like 10

One wonders if the two neuroscientists ever themselves commented

goes back far beyond computers and the Internet to the days of letters

consider the collective consciousness of the times.  If you stand back

the collective consciousness from time to time giving rise to all kinds 
of bizarre behavior.


Then there is just the fun of being anonymous online which allows more 
freedom of expression.  After all how many Bob Browns or Mary Smiths can

Iron Butterfly formed in San Diego, California; a classic rock band

best drum solos in rock history. This song takes up the whole of side

/The band's seminal 1968 album In-A-Gadda-Da-Vida is among the world's

Butterfly is also notable for being the very first group to receive an

Oh I agree it would be a good thing - I know a female artist who graduated from 
MIU - some of her art is well uhh, let's say stressful - her stepfather who 
is a TM teacher said she would be better off (as would the world) if she burned 
them.

If MUM would put some of that kind of stuff along with the tiptoe through the 
tulips kinds of art we have all come to expect from the TMO then it would be a 
momentous occasion indeed. 

I have spoken with artists who went to MIU/MUM who all complained about being 
censored by their instructors if the art pieces they were producing were not 
sattvic enough or were too stressful.

Lynch's twisted art (both graphic and film art) is part of the ludicrous 
hypocrisy of the TMO. As already stated, they will NEVER have an open art show 
there or at ANY TM facility. Nor will they ever show Eraserhead, Blue Velvet or 
Twin Peaks.

According to Judy, Barry is a rank liar.

The last time I had a real conversation with Barry Wright was back in 
2003, in response to a query he posted to Delia about the Cathars. His 
reply was so rude and obviously prejudiced that I realized that he was 
such an egotist and so biased that there was little to be gained from an 
extended dialog with him.


He claimed to have read over 200 books on the Cathars. It was a few 
months later, on alt.religion.gnostic, that he admitted to Kater Moogin 
to having read not a single book on the Gnostics. The punchline for this 
dialog was that I was reading straight out of a book I own about the 
Cthars!


Almost everyone knows that/bogumils are derivbed from Paulicans, 
Paulicans from Manicheans, Manicheans from Gnostics, thus Cathars are 
derived from Gnostics. /Moggers can understand this simple fact, but 
apparently our 'cletantra can't.


Here is an excerpt for the first dialog I ever had with the impostor 
Uncle Tantra:


 ...you wouldn't know any of that because when it comes to anything you 
can't crib off the Net, you're as hopeless as your concept of 
geography.  Languedoc is a mile away from Paris about the same as Austin 
is a mile away from Lousiana. Why don't you walk over to N'Awlins this 
afternoon and use their library and learn something?

Yep.  Interesting what has happened.  The limits were removed. Almost 
immediately, Richard and Share ushered the forum into its evolution as a chat 
room - characterized as all are by a preponderence of meaningless drivel.  Gone 
are the limits telling the brain to put some thought into a post, put some 
thought into topics, put some thought into with who and in what format one 
wanted to converse.  Limits that forced a pause in the action.  Quite the 
statement this forum is, really.

Ajax is not the only informant on FFL that has trouble keeping up with 
the conversation. I've been posting here since 2002 and I've never had a 
real dialog with Rick, who is supposed to be the moderator. On Google 
Groups I posted hundreds of on-topic messages trying to strike up a 
conversation with anyone interested in discussing the mechanics of 
consciousness and Judy ignored me for five years - until I called John 
Kerry a liar for fibbing about being in Cambodia at Christmas in 1968. 
That's when she first called me a liar and tried ever since then to get 
everybody else to shun me.


It's sometimes difficult to take seriously the hit and run posters who 
aren't really serious about starting and keeping up a dialog. Judy was 
one of the only respondents that really took this social media newsgroup 
seriously. We lost one of the most interesting respondents when Shemp 
McGurck left and the informant Vaj stopped posting. It's been kind of 
downhill ever since then. Most of my messages aren't even aimed at any 
of the current posters - they're for my grand-children living in 
California to read. Go figure.
