[FairfieldLife] Spinoza's God

2017-07-17 Thread yifux...@yahoo.com [FairfieldLife]
Einstein said that his God is the God of Spinoza,.  The latter said that 
"existence" is god,. MMY uses the word "Being".
 But Spinoza never quite got the connection between Quietism and the 
Transcendent, although some of the methods he mentions in "Ethics" are similar 
to Mindfulness techniques.
 On the whole, George Fox's approach is more developed than that of Spinoza., 
the latter emphasizing a more mental approach, whereas Quietism allows the mind 
to transcend itself.

[FairfieldLife] Hoksila Lakota (Lakota John) - Buddha at the Gas Pump Interview

2017-07-17 Thread Rick Archer r...@searchsummit.com [FairfieldLife]

Hoksila Lakota (Lakota 
John)


[Lakota 
John]
Hoksila Lakota (Lakota John)


Hoksila Lakota, commonly known as Lakota John is a Native American whose 
heritage comes from Oklahoma and the Great Plains of North America. Many 
generations ago his people lived in harmony with all things Universal, "uni" 
meaning One and "verse" being Song. When a system came in that crippled the 
people, making them dependent, some stayed and accepted the system and some 
left seeking broader horizons.

Rejecting the life of poverty and struggle he was born into, as a young man 
Lakota John fully embraced the illusion of glamour, bright lights and the fast 
pace of a big city. Trading in his cultural identity and the ways of his 
ancestors - a way of prayer and Spirit - he was lured by the seductive power of 
the city’s underworld, chasing the counterfeit lifestyle of money and self gain.

After traveling down many dead end roads in a reckless disregard for life, the 
light finally dawned, and Lakota awakened to the prompting of Spirit and 
ancient ancestors calling him back to the Red Road of Sobriety. Finding his 
innocence, or inner sense, by working through his past, he began to walk the 
straight and narrow path that leads to the sacred Tree of Life and reunion with 
the Highest Good, God or Wakan Tanka.

The impact his own restoration had on his life moved him to reach out to 
others, and ever since he has been involved in the mental health sector and 
working with keepers of the sacred pathways and knowledge for over twenty 
years. Through the lifestyle he once lived he is able to recognize the unseen 
enemy that binds and captivates the soul of man and woman through separation, 
suppression and sedation. Using the time-tested spiritual wisdom of his 
ancestors he helps guide others back from the dark world that he himself used 
to live in; the world of illusion, delusion and separation.

2017-07-17 Thread srijau
there has never been any reason given to be deluded about the private nature of 
the institution and if you can't have some basic respect for the tradition and 
the closest devotees and appointees of Maharishi you shouldn't go and you don't 
have a place in the discussion about the place.

2017-07-17 Thread dhamiltony...@yahoo.com [FairfieldLife]
Of grounding, 

 A fair quote from Zen Calendar today,

 ..Earth’s crammed with heaven,
 And every common bush afire with the Unified Field:
 But only he who sees takes off his shoes.

 

 Bhairitu offers:

 

The problem is that meditation is often taught wrong.  Other paths often just 
use meditation as a utility, you meditate when you fee like or need.  Advice 
from my tantra guru was, "if you don't feel like meditating then don't as 
nothing will be gained."  Meditation in general is used as a tool to calm the 
sympathetic nervous system, the part of the autonomic nervous system we use for 
activity.  Once calmed the thoughts which the sympathetic system triggers slow 
or stop just leaving an experience of pure consciousness.

But also keep in mind that one person's meditation technique may not work for 
another person.  Though many may need calming other may need stimulation.  
Ayurveda recognizes this and that's why there are different mantras for each 
dosha.  Gurus would often observe a student and give them an appropriate mantra 
for their constitution.  And some paths give a student a mantra for calming and 
one for stimulation, use as needed.

 So claims the DSM..
 Treatment of depersonalization disorder
 There is no single cure for depersonalization disorder; rather, there are 
various approaches to treating the disorder and managing symptoms. 
Psychotherapy and medication are the most common treatment options for 
depersonalization disorder, either in isolation or combined.

 

 ..prognosis for many sufferers is positive. With the correct diagnosis and 
effective treatment, many patients can expect to regain control and 
re-establish a sense of self and connection to their surroundings.
 The treatment suggested will depend on various factors

 I tend to agree. In my case it might primarily be the contrast between
 the mahaa-videhaa (great bodylesness; YS III ~ 44) experienced during YF as 
opposed to the feeling of being imprisoned in this mortal coil "outside" YF.

[FairfieldLife] Re: Maharishi's Domes

2017-07-17 Thread dhamiltony...@yahoo.com [FairfieldLife]
This post of yours is incredibly important, a crux to a problem with the Dome 
group meditation numbers in Fairfield, Iowa. Is the place a faith-based ashram 
or is it a place that facilitates the practice of our brand of meditation and 
then what does one have to do to be a member of it? Can one more simply be a 
practitioner of the meditation to be an included member? Pretty clearly the 
Domes were built to facilitate a practice. Is there a place in the Dome 
meditation group for the simple practitioner or must practitioners be devotees 
to your standard?

 Maharishi founded the Golden Domes of Pure Knowledge for those who follow his 
teaching and share his vision.
It isn't a municipal recreation center. 
Maharishi was always saying "Jai Guru Dev"
If you say "Jai Guru You" instead, your heart is not with Maharishi and his 
teaching. You can do you program in lots of places, but you don't belong in 
Maharishi's Domes.
