[FairfieldLife] Obama plan, and stuff...
Jerusalem has been the capital city of the Jewish People for the last 3,000 years. Still, Jerusalem warmly opens its arms to a variety of cultures and religions, and many Muslims and Christians call it home. Keep reading to the end of this email for the story on the architectal plans for the Third Temple. Nations Up in Arms Over Additional Housing in Jerusalem Neighborhood I am going to make Jerusalem a cup that sends all the surrounding peoples reeling. Judah will be besieged as well as Jerusalem. (Zechariah 12:2) Last week, the Jerusalem municipality announced the final approval for a building project that will add over 2,500 homes to Jerusalem's Givat Hamatos neighborhood. Although the plan was announced last week, it was put into play about two years ago. The United States, France and Germany criticized the move, seeing the growth of the neighborhood as endangering the two-state peace process, and calling for a reversal of the decision. This sentiment, of course, aligns with a dramatic universal shift toward the insistence that Jerusalem be divided so that it becomes the capital of an Arab state and the capital of a Jewish state. U.S. State Department spokesperson Jen Psaki said of the mixed Jewish-Arab neighborhood that its expansion would poison the atmosphere not only with the Palestinians, but also with the very Arab governments with which Prime Minister Netanyahu said he wanted to build relations. She also said that it called into question Israel’s ultimate commitment to a peaceful negotiated settlement with the Palestinians.” We condemn the Israeli authorities decision to build 2,610 homes in Givat Hamatos, French Foreign Minister Laurent Fabius said in a statement. One cannot claim to support a solution and at the same time do things against without consequences being drawn, including at the European Union level, Fabius threatened. (JPost) Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu rejected the condemnation, indicating that internationals had not learned the facts before responding. It’s worth learning the information properly before deciding to take a position like that, he said. The last phase of a building project is a statutory formality that does not require publicizing. Although the Givat Hamatos expansion was widely publicized two years ago during the first phase, its recent approval was again widely publicized by incendiary anti-settlement group Peace Now—leading to the condemnations. If this decision is upheld, it would mark the creation of a new settlement in east Jerusalem for the first time in more than 15 years, Fabius erroneously stated, disregarding the reality of the already existing, mixed-ethnicity neighborhood. Netanyahu reminded world leaders that Arabs in Jerusalem purchase homes freely in the west of the city and nobody says that’s forbidden. I don’t intend to tell Jews that they can’t buy homes in east Jerusalem, he said. Nevertheless, that is the very thing that the proposed two-state peace plan intends to accomplish—in addition to divvying up the rest of the Promised Land in a dangerous patchwork quilt of unworkable borders. The Obama plan would force Israel to give it all up, to divide Jerusalem, and return to indefensible borders. This would be a grave error, writes author Joel Rosenberg. It would severely jeopardize Israeli national security. It would do so in direct defiance of the Holy Scriptures. And it would draw the judgment of the Lord Almighty against the United States and all other countries involved in the process. As the world increasingly pressures Israel to return to the Israel-Jordan truce lines (aka the 1967 borders or Green Line) even though Jordan itself has renounced all claim to those lands, it becomes increasingly clear that key end-time prophecies concerning Israel and Jerusalem are being fulfilled. The prophet Joel, as one example, warns that God is not on board with plans to divide His land: I will gather all nations and bring them down to the Valley of Jehoshaphat. There I will put them on trial for what they did to my inheritance, my people Israel, because they scattered my people among the nations and divided up my land. (Joel 3:2) However, Yeshua (Jesus) reassures us that Believers who live in these last days should not fear, but eagerly await His return. When these things begin to take place, stand up and lift up your heads, because your redemption is drawing near. (Luke 21:28) snippendale
[FairfieldLife] Re: Obama plan, and stuff...
No referendum was held in that territory. So how legal the UN partition plan would be. Secondly, the partition plan itself is haphazard. --- cardemaister@... wrote : Jerusalem has been the capital city of the Jewish People for the last 3,000 years.

[FairfieldLife] Yes, Barry, there is no need to believe in God
Belief is a thought, that moves us through the gap, from one experience of a subject, to another. For example, we believe the earth is round. This belief remains in place, and helps our world make sense, though there are few times, when we actually observe the curvature of our planet. So it is, with a strong belief in God. Often it becomes the belief in God, that is pursued, instead of a close, immediate, ongoing relationship with Him and Her. I cannot honestly say that I believe in God, yet He and She make their presence known to me, moment to moment, and the relationship is always vital and alive. I did not think up God on my own, just as I would not know how to write, or speak, or drive a car, or try to treat people well. It was taught, this idea of God - many different aspects, over a lifetime. Running the spectrum, from static definitions, with no direct contact; a remote, authoritarian God, to a universe brimming with God, in all of Her and His creativity, endless expansion, and love. A creation that brings so many aspects, so many dynamics, of God to light, that it makes belief in God, irrelevant. Like believing in air and sunlight. So, Barry, I too, do not believe in God, but only one of us is richer for it.:-)

Still, Jerusalem warmly opens its arms to a variety of cultures and religions, and many Muslims and Christians call it home. Keep reading to the end of this email for the story on the architectal plans for the Third Temple. Nations Up in Arms Over Additional Housing in Jerusalem Neighborhood I am going to make Jerusalem a cup that sends all the surrounding peoples reeling. Judah will be besieged as well as Jerusalem. (Zechariah 12:2) Last week, the Jerusalem municipality announced the final approval for a building project that will add over 2,500 homes to Jerusalem's Givat Hamatos neighborhood. Although the plan was announced last week, it was put into play about two years ago. The United States, France and Germany criticized the move, seeing the growth of the neighborhood as endangering the two-state peace process, and calling for a reversal of the decision. This sentiment, of course, aligns with a dramatic universal shift toward the insistence that Jerusalem be divided so that it becomes the capital of an Arab state and the capital of a Jewish state. U.S. State Department spokesperson Jen Psaki said of the mixed Jewish-Arab neighborhood that its expansion would poison the atmosphere not only with the Palestinians, but also with the very Arab governments with which Prime Minister Netanyahu said he wanted to build relations. She also said that it called into question Israel’s ultimate commitment to a peaceful negotiated settlement with the Palestinians.” We condemn the Israeli authorities decision to build 2,610 homes in Givat Hamatos, French Foreign Minister Laurent Fabius said in a statement. One cannot claim to support a solution and at the same time do things against without consequences being drawn, including at the European Union level, Fabius threatened. (JPost) Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu rejected the condemnation, indicating that internationals had not learned the facts before responding. It’s worth learning the information properly before deciding to take a position like that, he said. The last phase of a building project is a statutory formality that does not require publicizing. Although the Givat Hamatos expansion was widely publicized two years ago during the first phase, its recent approval was again widely publicized by incendiary anti-settlement group Peace Now—leading to the condemnations. If this decision is upheld, it would mark the creation of a new settlement in east Jerusalem for the first time in more than 15 years, Fabius erroneously stated, disregarding the reality of the already existing, mixed-ethnicity neighborhood. Netanyahu reminded world leaders that Arabs in Jerusalem purchase homes freely in the west of the city and nobody says that’s forbidden. I don’t intend to tell Jews that they can’t buy homes in east Jerusalem, he said. Nevertheless, that is the very thing that the proposed two-state peace plan intends to accomplish—in addition to divvying up the rest of the Promised Land in a dangerous patchwork quilt of unworkable borders. The Obama plan would force Israel to give it all up, to divide Jerusalem, and return to indefensible borders. This would be a grave error, writes author Joel Rosenberg. It would severely jeopardize Israeli national security. It would do so in direct defiance of the Holy Scriptures. And it would draw the judgment of the Lord Almighty against the United States and all other countries involved in the process. As the world increasingly pressures Israel to return to the Israel-Jordan truce lines (aka the 1967 borders or Green Line) even though Jordan itself has renounced all claim to those lands,it becomes increasingly clear that key end-time prophecies concerning Israel and Jerusalem are being fulfilled. The prophet Joel, as one example, warns that God is not on board with plans to divide His land: I will gather all nations and bring them down to the Valley of Jehoshaphat. There I will put them on trial for what they did to my inheritance, my people Israel, because they scattered my people among the nations and divided up my land. (Joel 3:2) However, Yeshua (Jesus) reassures us that Believers who live in these last days should not fear, but eagerly await His return. When these things begin to take place, stand up and lift up your heads, because your redemption is drawing near. (Luke 21:28) snippendale

The 'classical atheism' is based on the following arguments, Theoretical argument :- The arguments against the existence of gods, responding to common theistic arguments such as the argument from design or Pascal's Wager. Epistemological argument :- Divinity is inseparable from the world itself, including a person's mind, and each person's consciousness is locked in the subject, this limitation in perspective prevents any objective inference from belief in a god to assertions of its existence. Metaphysical argument :- The implicit denial of God in all philosophies that, while they accept the existence of an absolute, conceive of the absolute as not possessing any of the attributes proper to God. Logical argument :- The various conceptions of gods, such as the personal god of Christianity, are ascribed logically inconsistent qualities.

Television, in general, is fine, if I have nothing better to do, or am simply exhausted. I cannot immerse myself in it, though, as some do, since there is often something real I would rather do. Didn't really watch the tube until I was in my twenties, and even now, it is a sporadic activity, at best. I saw an awesome documentary a few nights ago, comparing the actual Von Trapp story, with the movie, The Sound Of Music, incorporating a recent stage production of the musical, in Austria. Fascinating, and yes, Maria Von Trapp, was nothing like Julie Andrews. ---In FairfieldLife@yahoogroups.com, no_re...@yahoogroups.com wrote : I saw every minute of it with great interest, the characters, music, photography, all great :-) ---In FairfieldLife@yahoogroups.com, fleetwood_macncheese@... wrote : Hey, we share the same non-interests - High five! ---In FairfieldLife@yahoogroups.com, awoelflebater@... wrote : I never did see a single minute of the original Twin Peaks and won't see a single minute of the second one but for those who give a damn here is something to cogitate on: http://www.heraldsun.com.au/entertainment/confidential/twin-peaks-everything-you-need-to-know-25-years-later/story-fnn7ma1h-1227082916257?nk=48a575fd9570fe58c75da860cb301022 http://www.heraldsun.com.au/entertainment/confidential/twin-peaks-everything-you-need-to-know-25-years-later/story-fnn7ma1h-1227082916257?nk=48a575fd9570fe58c75da860cb301022

[FairfieldLife] Are Aliens too Distant for Contact?
Yes, probably so, if the means of communication is through light or radio waves. As such, the speed of communication is limited by the speed of light. But it is theoretically possible to contact ETs through telepathic means or lucid dreaming. Why? Because consciousness pervades the entire universe. So, communication through consciousness is faster than the speed of light. IMO, the Srimad Bhagavatam has given us clues of this type of communication in the story relating to Urvasi, the heavenly apsara. She supposedly can be found taking a bath in the region near the Pleiades, which is placed in beginning degrees of Taurus. From my experience, everyone--perhaps, more so for males--can see Urvasi through lucid dreaming when the Moon is transiting the 3rd quarter of Krittika nakshatra. She appears as a beautiful female during a dream.

Despite the ongoing counseling support, the problems of post-traumatic stress among firefighters persisted.

Re: [FairfieldLife] Stephen Collins Admits to Molesting Underage Girl
Stephen Collins is a pedophile with a long term pattern of sexually molesting children ... this according to Collins' wife. In the 2014 divorce docs -- obtained by TMZ -- Faye Grant claims Collins admitted that he had sexually molested 3 underage girls over a decade ago: At least two of these girls were molested over the course of several years. Grant says in a declaration, she is sickened by Stephen's actions. She says, I have urged Stephen multiple times to seek treatment for pedophilia, but he has refused to seek proper help or hospitalization for the predilection toward children. I guess Stephen decide to rely instead on his TMSP practice, yagyas and maybe some gem stones and suchlike.

When people say that they transcend, it's a partial opening of the Crown Chakra. Samadhi according to Vedic traditions involves openings of both the Crown Chakra and the 3rd eye chakra. In addition, the development of Siddhis is a natural outcome. Transcendence MMY style is most likely (statistically speaking), the 'fuzzy experience, without the 3rd eye opening. ...

I agree Yifuxero, in fact the Kundali must ascend the Shumuna, even according to MMY, and open ALL the higher centers (chakras).

Re: [FairfieldLife] Re: Yes, Barry, there is no need to believe in God
I don't know what Barry does when he is alone, but he is living with others according to his own account, so how much aloneness he experiences seems a bit difficult to determine from across the pond; how much he drinks is also difficult to determine. He posted a photo of a glass of red wine, shot in a garden once, in the evening, next to his laptop. Kind of hard to avoid that if you live in France for a while. I don't feel hurt or bitter, and I cannot tell if Barry has such emotions, for as a writer, he assumes various points of view, not necessarily what he is himself experiencing, so I am always curious how you determine these characterisations. He tried TM, and followed Lenz for a while. I suspect he learned something from those experiences. For myself, I did try TM; it worked quite well for some four decades plus though it seems a little frayed now; mindfulness works better now, which it did not in the beginning, but I learned mindfulness first, a long time ago. Not-doing now is a breeze. I tend not to follow spiritual teachers; I mine them for the information I desire. Spiritual teachers are a quirky lot. As just about everyone seems to have some screws loose before they get into spiritual concerns, I always wonder how much of that remains once they have been immersed in the spiritual quest for a time, and that goes for the 'masters' too. As we are part of that group that are, or were seekers, I suspect none of us are free of some individual quirks that might annoy others. A certain kind of luck is required because until a certain point, you cannot tell if a spiritual teacher is just screwing you over or giving you truly good advice, so going down blind alleys is always a potential result. I am pretty sure Barry thinks you are self-deluded about your alleged enlightenment, probably on the basis you promote it over much, but also he does not seem to consider what is generally called enlightenment here on FFL significant compared to other possible experiences. That is not my view, but then I have never met anyone who does have my view, other people think different things. Curious isn't that? For my part, based on what you have said, I think you had some sort of experience, epiphany, or awakening, but your descriptions of the result leave me in doubt because they seem to lack certain details, and you did not seem to grasp concepts found in Vedanta at all, even though this is way of looking at enlightenment is directly involved with Shankara, and Maharishi certainly seemed aware of it, though he did not seem to talk about it extensively. The concepts are not 'the truth' of course but you should be able to manipulate and explain the principles. I suppose I find your statements lack a certain precision, because I like precision, and that does not seem to be your way of expressing yourself. You tend, from my point of view, to block things out in broad strokes. I sometimes drink beer and watch TV alone, but usually I drink tea or coffee or a soda, and usually I watch TV with someone else unless the content strains their sensibilities, as quite a few meditators seem to have difficulty with certain kinds of images, either by inclination, or by having been programmed by others to avoid such because it is not 'evolutionary'.

[FairfieldLife] Re: Scientific proof we survive death!
Wow, people who are NOT dead, have memories! Who knew. This is full of medical misunderstandings about brain functions and what physical death entails. These Doctors should be ashamed of themselves for such an absurd extrapolation from the facts. At the simplest level we have two things: The state of death and it's corresponding physiology which a person does not get resuscitated from... and every other state where they are. They are different. Why is this so hard for people to understand this unsubtle distinction?
[FairfieldLife] Re: Scientific proof we survive death!
Did you read the article? The medical profession has always claimed that once the heart stops beating then brain shutdown follows almost immediately. This new evidence shows that consciousness continues for longer than previously thought. Our knowledge of this grey area has therefore been increased and our new understanding is, at the very least, suggestive. I recollect that readings from The Tibetan Book of the Dead are continued for *49* days after someone dies to offer encouragement during the transition.

I enjoyed that moment in the movie Contact where the first TV signal that aliens would have received from Earth was Hitler's speech at the 1936 Olympics.

But what will their first Earth TV signal be? I Love Lucy? Baywatch? American Idol?

According to King Tony, the planets are part of our physiology which are located in our brain. MMY mentioned that the planets are the impulses of intelligence. As such, a part of us has a Martian quality.
