In a 22' interview, Russell Brand did not mention TM. Did he stop practicing?

[FairfieldLife] Re: Who is the author of our actions?

[jr_...@yahoo.com [FairfieldLife]]

 

Emily,
 

 For most Americans and people who've grown up in the traditional western 
culture, usiing the term the "gunas" is a foreign word and concept.  We were 
brought to claim responsibility for our own actions.  Thus, it is inconceivable 
to have a foreign entity or mode of nature to take ownership of our own actions.
 

 The idea is similar to the idea that the kingdom of God is within you, as you 
have quoted from Luke.  MMY even says that the gunas are the powers of nature 
that come from God.  In simple terms, the gunas include the basic elements of 
nature such as, water, fire, earth, air and ether.  They are part of us and 
vice versa.  Thus, our thinking process and consciousness are influenced by 
these basic elements.
 

 MMY  has explained this concept in his commentary to the B. Gita.  But in my 
opinion, it is the natural way to explain what Jesus meant by the kingdom of 
God.  It also explains how we can act in the world without stress and influence 
from karma or action.  Intellectual understanding of the process is not needed. 
 It is experienced by the process of transcending while in meditation.
 

 This process is now more natural and familiar compared to some evangelicals, 
like a pastor from the Philippines, who claims that he is the appointed son of 
God.  He's even stated that we are now in the stage of "rapture" as stated in 
Revelations.  Moreover, he claims to have inherited the resurrected body of 
Christ.  Is he crazy?  But he has a worldwide following.

[FairfieldLife] Re: "The Field Paradigm" - Free eBook on Maharishi Effect

[yifux...@yahoo.com [FairfieldLife]]

Thx, I read the e-book, basically a propaganda pitch for the TM and TMSP.  
 The first 1/2 of the book covers the concept of interconnectedness along with 
some prior historical contributions such as Spinoza.
 This topic was covered long ago in much greater detail by physicist Dr. David 
Bohm and other physicists suzh as Zukav. Bohm came up with the expression 
"Implicate Order" for the Unitary field underlying all apparently separate 
objects, but especially people since the theme during the 70's was that if one 
could tap into this Field, all sorts of Siddhis would follow in their 
manifestation.
 Unfortunately, the bottom line is the results. Nopeno levitation from the 
TM practioners, but St. Thomas Aquinas could levitate, so he knew more than 
Hagelin, it seems.
 Obviously TM has positive benefits when it comes to brain wave coherence but 
that's not enough to produce Siddhis.
 In short, the TM people fail us once again, especially in light of recent 
disasters and Vegas.  So much for butt bouncing.

[FairfieldLife] Re: Who is the author of our actions?

[yifux...@yahoo.com [FairfieldLife]]

Right, it's the Gunas.  The idea that a "you" is problematic since the 
components that comprise the relative "you" are . interconnected with the 
environment, and in a deterministic worldview the precise author can't be 
determined due to the countless contributing factors.
 Thus, the "author" as MMY says could only be the Gunas, within the context of 
the Totality and of an individual body mind, the latter often being identified 
as a direct physical agent.
 Since karma is unfathomable, that means that countless prior causes may have 
contributed to the Vegas killer's actions, and the actual physical act is the 
tip of a huge iceberg of contributing factors.
 For purposes of justice, only the direct agent is held accountable.

[FairfieldLife] CIA: Kim Jong-Un is not a madman.

[jr_...@yahoo.com [FairfieldLife]]

In effect, the agency is disagreeing with Trump in his assessment of the N 
Korean dictator.  But the CIA does not know that Kim has Shakti Yoga, making 
him a very dangerous man for the entire world.  Also, his lagna lord Mercury is 
the lord of the 64th navamsa, which is placed in the 7th house.  Thus, Kim 
creates his own problems and for others who are associated with him as personal 
friends or allies in world governments.

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

More storm coming.. 

 — and it is expected to develop into a hurricane before possibly hitting the 
U.S. Gulf Coast late this weekend, the National Hurricane Center says.

 

 A new tropical depression has formed in the southwestern Caribbean Sea .

 

 ..dubbed Tropical Depression 16, on Wednesday. If the system develops as 
expected, it would be dubbed Nate — first as a tropical storm and later, if 
warranted, as a hurricane — 

 

 "Residents along the Gulf Coast from Louisiana to Florida should monitor the 
progress of this system for the next several days," the National Hurricane 
Center cautions
