“Praxis: Action grounded in particular values.  To act rightly or goodly; 
action that furthers human well-being...It is not simply doing something, which 
Freier refers to as activism, or simply talking about, which he refers to as 
verbalism.  Instead it refers to a creative and dialogical process, where 
people come together to describe and name their realities and then act with 
others to create a more non-violent, socially just, and inclusive society.” 

 I know ya;ll are angry, afraid, overwhelmed, shocked, etc. but this will 
require real engagement and action to change this.  Social media venting will 
not stop it. We will all have to be involved in turning our neighborhoods, 
communities, and cities into sanctuaries where this hatred cannot exist… and we 
must all hold each other accountable in this work.  Ya’ll want to talk good 
liberal shit, show up and show out for the next four years, at the very least.

 In renewed social critique,
 with the dislocations in society from rapid technological changes like in the 
‘social question’ of the 19th Century renewed, is there alternative here to so 
much of what is in this postmodern time period’s spiritual agitation and 
conflict-making, like taking a fresh alternative towards looking to the science 
of radical peace-making?
 

 Is it come time for something radical, like a making of peace, going up in 
magnitude to a much larger scale?
 To go much higher than 1 percent, 5 in 100, much higher than the square root 
of one percent of a group meditating. 
 

 Is it come time now for new critique and something more.
 In experience Transcendentalism has always been the critique to materialism 
that has gone out of perspective.  Given the stakes, it would seem in the 
modern now it is time for revolutionary transforming transcendent meditationist 
action everywhere.  QED.

 From time in memorium this is called the work of moral courage where people, 
deeper spiritual people [transcendentalists] do this, come in to groups 
meditating together for something larger.

 Yes. If i understand properly, there are bodies of studies now authored, 
collaboratively with other reputable universities and institutions, and 
conducted independent of the .org, published studies that have extremely high 
statistical p values and then also aggregated high p values studies, replicated 
too that correlate the effects of meditating. Gold standard stuff.  So the 
premise is that at a point the plain truth of such a series of extremely 
extraordinarily high p value published studies in the aggregate simply becomes 
statistical truth. A type of fact. What they correlate becomes fair ‘rule of 
thumb’.  Unless of course as people may be anti-science or don’t understand 
science this way they may not grok what is completely current in the cutting 
edge of knowledge. This does not deny that there was bad or poorly designed or 
poorly performed science on meditation that went before. However, a sheer 
weight of the best of science is plainly correlating that it is a statistical 
truth now and quite fair rule of thumb that meditating has benefits that go 
with its practice.  QED.  
 

 It would be far better for you look at the webpage of 
http://www.truthabouttm.org/ http://www.truthabouttm.org/ towards engaging a 
much higher level of understanding of these things.  I only know my objective 
experience with it all which I find statistically certain in many replicable 
ways for myself.  -JaiGuruYou

[FairfieldLife] Re: FF meditator memoriam

[dhamiltony...@yahoo.com [FairfieldLife]]

Eulogy, 
 Meditators; it's been a long time, it's been a sacrifice at times to have been 
here. You came bravely, proudly. You're a special group. You've found in one 
another a bond that exists possibly only among siblings. You've shared 
community, held each other in dire moments. You've seen friends in their death 
here and we have all suffered together at times to be here. I'm proud to have 
meditated with each and every one of you. You all who came and joined the 
Fairfield, Iowa group meditation deserve long and happy rest in peace.
