 Emily,
 

 I think Jeffress and evangelicals like him like to interpret the Bible in a 
limited way.  That's why they create tension and division here in this country. 
 But the Bible or any other revered books of wisdom were not created to be dead 
stories.  They  are living documents to be interpreted by conscious human 
beings to determine what is right and just. given  the social contexts, 
environment and human issues applicable for the times.
 

 As such, I believe ISIS and other forms of virulent religions have run their 
course and are recognized as dangerous for human societies  by the destruction 
they have wrought and the evil they have created.  In this regard, human 
consciousness is finding the solutions to the virulence of radical Islam or any 
other religions.  For the time being, the bombs that rained against supporters 
ISIS have brought forth the downfall of the Islamic State in Iraq and Syria.
 

 Who's next?  Kim Jong Un?

 Jeffress does not represent the great majority of evangelists (see article) 
and is not a mouthpiece for Christians of virtually any denomination.

 The word "cult" has to be specifically defined and placed into historical, 
political, and social context to have any meaning.  
 

 I have no idea what he thinks of TM, but I'm guessing that given his 
"Christian" beliefs, he would consider it yet another surreptitious offspring 
of Satan.

 . ..  "But, brothers, patience and hope! We know what we are working for, we
 know that the truth of God is on our side, that he has no attributes
 that can favor the existing order of fraud, oppression, carnage and
consequent wretchedness. We may be sure of the triumph of our cause.
The grass may grow over our graves before it will be accomplished; but
as certain as God reigns, will the dominion of justice and truth be
established in the order of society. Every plant which the Heavenly
Father has not planted will be plucked up, and the earth will yet
rejoice in the greenness and beauty of the garden of God."

 Hence by the science, in need is more meditation. By the science in a modern 
world, need is in more people giving their lives for meditation on behalf of 
all else. For more martyrs in spirituality, for more meditation jihadis 
sacrificing their lives for the good of all and in group. By the science, come 
to meditation. The meditation is the fight against non-meditation. Join with us 
in meditation. Know this to be that which you are seeking. It is your 
birthright. Come back to meditation.

One risk of getting down in the political mud.. 

 As much as transcendentalists throughout time provide the critique of 
materialism and narcissism the reformers can become lightning rod to the 
ignorance of the world generally. 

 “There is a class of persons who desire a reform in the prevailing 
 philosophy of the day. These are called Transcendentalists, because 
 they believe in an order of truth that transcends the sphere of the 
 external senses. Their leading idea is the supremacy of mind over 
 matter. Hence they maintain that the truth of religion does not depend 
 on tradition nor historical facts, but has an unswerving witness in 
 the 
 soul. There is a light, they believe, which enlighteneth every man who 
 cometh into the world. There is a faculty in all--the most degraded, 
 the most ignorant, the most obscure--to perceive spiritual truth when 
 distinctly presented; and the ultimate appeal on all moral questions 
 is 
 not to a jury of scholars, a hierarchy of divines or the prescriptions 
 of a creed, but to the common sense of the human race. -Codman, Brook Farm 

 ..Yeah, and that Martin Luther in his end he got his, 500 years ago for 
contending religious materialism.

 really dumb to alienate the President on this. Think how much better the whole 
country could he if he was doing TM 20x 2 and also sleeping adequately.

 "You think you can make your way to the White House?" actress Mary-Louise 
Parker interjected -- at which point Tom Hanks, also on stage, launched into an 
impression of President Donald Trump.
 "I meditate faster, better," Hanks said in a voice mimicking the president’s, 
but laced with a hint of his own Forrest Gump. "No one meditates like me."

Diwali [Deepavali] will be truly glorious only when the inner light is lit, and 
then Diwali would not only be today, but will be every day.  Diwali will then 
be purposeful.  Otherwise, today's Diwali itself is saying—So what if the 
garlands of lamps have lit the light outside just for one day in a year?

On Lamps of Deepavali

India, 1951

Maharishi (Bal Brahmachari Mahesh):  Innumerable lamps have suddenly lit the 
darkness of night and the whole earth is glowing as if waking up, becoming 
aware to receive love from its own innerlight;

Or has the earth become the sky and yesterday's twinkling stars have become 
today's garlands of lamps, lighting the whole earth;

Or is it I who has risen up today and lit these lamps with my own hands, 
expressing my own inner light—the Purushartha, which has transformed the 
darkness of this time into bright light.

The darkness of tonight's new moon has brightened up far more than the glow of 
the full moon nights.

Yes, this total darkness of the new moon nights of Karttik months has always 
come and will always be coming at its usual time, but in all our alertness, we 
have always risen up taking the lamp in our hands, and we will always keep 
rising up, carrying innumerable lamps and transforming the darkness into the 
celebration of a big Festival of Lights through our won fully enlivened inner 
light—the Purushartha.

And why not?  Great is the glory of Purushartha—fully enlivened inner light—and 
it is so apparent that the lamp of the Self, which I had lit earlier in the 
darkness of life, today that one lamp has multiplied outside, shining as 
innumerable bright lamps of Deepavali.

Diwali [Deepavali] will be truly glorious only when the inner light is lit, and 
then Diwali would not only be today, but will be every day.  Diwali will then 
be purposeful.  Otherwise, today's Diwali itself is saying—So what if the 
garlands of lamps have lit the light outside just for one day in a year?
