 Increasing Means of support: 

 FW:  Buy on Amazon, Ebay = Donate to the Meditation Assembly

 

 An average of 5% of any purchase on Amazon, Ebay, and 250 other online stores 
will go the Invincible America meditation Assembly if you go to the following 
website (brightFutureNews.com) and click the green bar in order to go to the 
store you want:
 

 https://brightfuturenews.com/s hops?a=cipek 
https://brightfuturenews.com/shops?a=cipek

 

 Just click on the above link,  ​then ​
click on the green bar to shop, and choose among 250 shops, including Amazon, 
Ebay, and hundreds of other online stores.
 

 About half of the amount donated by the store will go directly to the IAA 
general fund, and about half will go directly to individuals and help 
meditators stay on the IAA and continue to uphold the United States to be more 
peaceful, just, free, and unified. 
 

 If meditators would like to receive support in half of the  ​donated amount 
(average 5% of purchase)​
 from every purchase ​ by others that​
 they inspire, they can sign up to become an affiliate member by clicking on 
the following link:
 

 https://brightfuturenews.com/m embers?a=cipek 
https://brightfuturenews.com/members?a=cipek

 

 If you  ​sign up to become a member via that link​
, you can send your own link to others, and will receive about half of the 
approximate 5% of every purchase your friends generate with their purchases. 
The other half of that approximately 5% will go to the IAA general fund. 
 

 Thank you very very much for helping move the Invincible America Assembly 
forward to create a bright future for us all.

 Salsunshineiniowa: No, I didn’t even know about it.  Supposedly there were 
flyers up all over, but I guess not where I shop.
  
 There was scarcely a necktie in sight, and only a few Jai Guru Devs (which I 
suspect drive you crazy) were uttered.
  
 Hagelin even admitted that when he took over leadership of the movement, it 
was a "mess" regarding TM instruction. The fee was too high and no one was 
learning. Since then the fee has been lowered and initiations have gone up.
  
 What’s it lowered to?  Let me guess…it’s still way too high.
  
 It must be the first time in history that a TM movement leader has admitted 
that anything at all in the movement was "a mess.”

Thx, the development of the Polyvagal nervous system (physical representation 
of empathy and  compassion); appears to be (or can be) somewhat independent of 
the states of Consciousness mentioned by MMY.
 Thus, it does not necessarily follow that a person in (CC, UC) is well 
developed in regard to empathy, compassion, and free from Narcissistic 
tendencies.

2017-06-27 Thread dhamiltony...@yahoo.com [FairfieldLife]
Spirituality and the ‘Behavioral Axis’..

 FW: a narrative:

 “People in the meditating community are not by any means fully developed, I 
see dysfunctional, disrespectful behavior often in and out of the Dome. I see 
people having a lot of experience of CC (cosmic consciousness) who often do not 
behave like saints. I know of one man who says he went into CC in high school 
and is now full of GC, UC and BC experience and often reports them to IAA 
anonymously. I asked an employee of his what it was like to work for him. The 
employee said, "It's all about him." and “That saint does not know how to treat 
employees / people”. My spouse is a friend of the  wife, and told me that the 
saint's wife said more or less the same thing about living with him. 

 Higher states of consciousness, and being on the path of them, is not all 
there is to sainthood or life. That's one thing that has become clear esp in 
the past years. There is the behavioral axis also. Ultimately, all is one, but 
in practice, these often need to be treated as two.  Otherwise, one ends in the 
mood-making soup. Administration needs to be skilled, and ‘sainthood’ 
appreciated and guided. “

 Communal Scruples? Asking around, apparently some individuals have been 
ejected from the movement community as sexual predators, copping conning 
abusing while using jyotish, or bullying a spiritual status on their victims. 
 Some number of years ago a flamboyant guy who infamously was preying on MSAE 
age girls was threatened with arrest by a father then who was an attorney and 
the guy subsequently left Fairfield.  
 Evidently more recently some guy who had been on Purusha was using jyotish and 
spiritual specialness to sexually predate young women and also conning money, 
the guy evidently was evicted from Utopia Park and kicked off campus. 
 Another longtime predator preying by specialness and general nuisance of the 
meditating community was purposely separated from the movement some long time 
ago is still separated and about.  
In more recent times a warning went out by e-mail around the meditating 
community about someone returning to town who had fleeced by con some lot of 
money from people in investment scams.

 The definition of unconscionable = doing something you know to be wrong?  
Doesn't make sense.  ISIS killers are performing A-dharmic acts that they 
believe are right. Belief or unbelief in an action doesn't dictate the degree 
of Conscionable-ness.

 Conscionable = Dharmic?

[FairfieldLife] Does the Universe Have a Mind?

2017-06-27 Thread jr_...@yahoo.com [FairfieldLife]
I saw this article last, but decided to read it this morning to get a fresh 
view of what Chopra is saying.  He seems to be saying that "effects" in the 
universe do not have to have "causes"...,, and that individual atoms/particles 
have a mind of their own.  They can spontaneously grow and decay on their own.  
Nonetheless, I believe this article needs more critical reviews by philosophers 
and physicists to be acceptable.  What do you think?

[FairfieldLife] Patricia & Bill Clum - Buddha at the Gas Pump Interview

Bill and Patricia 
Clum



(Click here for interview 
page.)


[Bill Patricia Clum Cropped]


Together, Bill & Patricia support you to build a foundation, providing tools 
for strength in the emotional and spiritual domain, yielding flow and freedom 
to be who you have come here to be. A life of awakening is not one in which we 
never fall into a dark valley, it is one in which when we fall, we have learned 
how to move through it. We develop emotional muscle in order to rise. This is 
the inner work of the soul.

Bill & Patricia guide you to that which is unhealed, exposing how these hurts 
and emotions rule our lives. You are able to face yourself, learn to untangle 
from these aspects that have a powerful impact and influence. In the discovery 
of new awareness and integration you begin to experience wholeness. Embrace all 
emotion, letting go of resistance and live in the present moment. With 
sensitivity, strength and skill, Bill and Patricia facilitate working through 
levels of trauma, pain, grief and anger in order to guide people to their own 
divine nature. As these wounds heal, you are able to discover the depths of 
self-acceptance and forgiveness.
