 Many people do not realize that a computer connected to the internet
 reveals details about their personal life: who they are, where they
 work, where they go, who they visit and their surfing habits. It's all
 there - housed as digital information at a data center somewhere. All it
 needs is to be extracted. There are no secrets anymore. It's almost
 impossible to hide from the data collection even if you don't own a

[FairfieldLife] Take A Voigt-Kampff Test

2014-06-13 Thread Pundit Sir pundits...@gmail.com [FairfieldLife]
Replicants supposedly have no capacity for empathy, and their unemotional
reaction to Voigt-Kampff questions reveals their artificiality, e.g., If
you saw a tortoise lying on it's back in the desert...

The replicants in 'Blade Runner', based on the book by Phillip Dick, (Do
Androids Dream of Electric Sheep), are created to exactly resemble humans.
In San Francisco post WWT there is often confusion whether a humanoid is
real or an android. Bounty hunters and others use the Voigt-Kampff test to
distinguish humans from replicants. The test consists of questions which
elicit an emotional response.

In order to understand how a replicant thinks it would be necessary to get
inside a replicant's brain. This being almost impossible in the year 2002,
we might instead read about one man's attempt, in the not so distant
future, in order to become more familiar with the way replicants think and
act, so as to be better prepared ourselves, in how to deal with them.

As narrated by Rick Deckard in 'Blade Runner' Deckard plans to kill enough
errant replicants so he can replace his robotic sheep with a real one. Says
Deckard: The electric things have their lives, too. Paltry as those lives
are. (Androids 214). In the process of hunting down these pseudo-humans,
Deckard falls in love with a replicant, in fact the beautiful Rachel, the
daughter of Tyrel. In the process Deckard learns about himself and what it
means to be human and subhuman.

As the narration continues Deckard becomes confused just like we would in
the same situation; who or what is the real human? And, how are we going to
be able to tell the 'clones' from the real thing? We can't even sort out
all the various religions, races, and nationalities now, let alone sort out
humans from identical replicants in the future!

This brings up the question of human consciousness, robot consciousness,
and how they are similar and different from us thinking humanoids. The main
theme of Phillip K. Dick's novel concerns similarity and difference;
sentient robots that look identical to humans, but are not human at all.
The central question is whether or not we can spot replicants in order to
retire them. Looming in the background is the question: is Deckard himself
a replicant?

Thinking like a replicant is the way Deckard explores his own consciousness
and humanity. Replicants, that is, androids, make Deckard realize that he
might not be so human after all. He actually becomes more inhuman than the
replicants he is remorselessly hunting! I think the answer is clear:
Androids dream of sheep just like humans do. After all, they are
replicants.

[FairfieldLife] FairfieldLife@yahoogroups.com wrote:



 I was talking to my Kentucky friend Bob the other day. Bob was MIU for
 eight years total, as a student for most of them, but he worked on staff
 from time to time. This is what he told me.

 Yeah I was there during the Robin Carlsen years. I went to see him once,
 just once, out of curiosity really. And it was interesting, but he was
 kinda strange I thought. He was kinda strange. Now one thing, he did have
 some energy, no question about it. He looked directly in my eyes and man I
 felt like he was peering into all the deep dark stuff that was in there,
 you know?

 But he was really kinda strange, and from what I could see of his stuff,
 well he was doing exorcisms is what he was really doing with people. But
 anyway I only went that one time, and that was the only time I saw him
 except for the time he came to a Charlie Lutes talk and I was there.

 But anyway, I went back on campus after the Robin Carlsen thing, and went
 to work the next day like usual, I was working the in press at that time
 and about half way through the day a guy comes in and says Bob, the Ad
 Council wants to see you.

 So I said ok and man, there were a few guys in the press that day, and
 none of 'em would look me straight in the eye, they all had these hang dog
 looks on their faces and would only look at me out of the sides of their
 eyes.

 So I followed this guy on over to where they were waiting for me, and I
 walk in the room and there is Bill Rist, Mario Orsati and James Beddinger.
 There was one other guy there too, but I can't remember who it was. They
 sit me down and started in on the interrogation. They asked me all kinds of
 questions about my going to see Robin, but the main thing they kept asking
 me over and over was Do you believe in him?

 So I told 'em what I knew they wanted to hear, like I thought he was
 flakey and I just went that one time out of curiosity and stuff like that.
 I guess I satisfied them, cause they didn't kick me out, but they sure did
 give me some lectures about how I needed to be careful about what I did as
 a staff or student and I needed to be careful about my behavior and my
 thinking.

 And that was the end of it, except that after that every time I saw James
 around campus he would give me these looks, you know, like I'm watching
 you boy! kind of looks.

 And I swear, you know I am a big and was a big Charlie Lutes fan so
 whenever Charlie would come anywhere close to Fairfield, I would always go
 see him. But after that meeting with Bill Rist and Mario and James, ever
 after that when I would come back on campus after seeing Charlie, there
 would come James.

 It didn't matter if I was headed to my room or the dining hall or student
 union, or wherever I would be, just a few minutes after getting back on
 campus, James would come walking by. He would just say hello, but I knew he
 was letting me know he knew I had gone to see Charlie.

 The other thing that happened was from then on any time I applied for a
 course of any kind, WPA or whatever my application was always held up and I
 had to answer questions about going to see Robin Carlsen that one time. And
 that went on while I was staff and student and for years after, even when I
 would apply to go to a WPA in Louisville or someplace, they have always
 asked me about going to see Robin.

FYI: I sat with Suzuki Roshi at the SFZC for a year in 1968 and with

Sonoma, so it's been 46 years now that I've been practicing in the Soto Zen
tradition. Up in northern California lots of people practice various types
of meditation. Sonoma Mountain Zen Center is situated on 80 acres of
rolling hills and mountainous land, located 11 miles from the town of Santa

full-time.

Inside the Sonoma Zen Center:



Jakusho Kwong-roshi was born in Santa Rosa in 1935 and began studying Zen
with Shunryu Suzuki-roshi in 1959. He received ordination at San Francisco
Zen Center in 1970 and began establishing Sonoma Mountain Zen Center in
1973 as his commemoration to his teacher. Kwong-roshi completed Dharma
transmission in 1978 through Hoitsu Suzuki-roshi at Rinsoin, Japan. This
authorized him as Dharma successor to Suzuki-roshi's lineage. Kwong-roshi
travels annually to the Southwest, Iceland and Poland to lead sesshins for

 Sort revealing, I think, how some people delight in calling others a
 sucker because they spend 10 minutes of their time, and $0.00, or maybe
 $8.00 to check something out.

 Kinda proves Jim's point that those whose spiritual quest has fallen
 short, can't resist taking any, (and every) opportunity to denigrate those
 still have some curiosity about things considered a little woo woo.

 Or maybe in Michael's case, posting a hilarious video the end of which a
 dog looks as though he is going to the victim of an axe attack.  Just
 hilarious isn't it.  Oh, but he used it as a joke about TM, right, so it's
 all good.

 In response to a Google search on How much does Braco charge?

 from http://lylescott89.wordpress.com/2011/01/14/braco-the-gazer/
 Allow me to explain exactly how this works.  For the amazingly low price
 of $8.00 you get to go into a large room with a bunch of other suckers and
 get gazed upon by Braco.  You stand there and Braco looks at you.  Then

 certainly be
 hunted down as criminals against humanity for their

 Enlightenment. Funny, because no one talks about this topic
 here,
 despite this forum's alleged purpose.  Fellows like
 Barry (or
 Bawee) who criticizes Maharishi endlessly, haven't had a
 good
 meditation during this century. The criticizers have just a
 very
 small amount of spiritual experience between them. Even
 Curtis, the
 musician guy who meditated and rounded, with Sidhis, for 15
 years, is
 not established in Being.



 So we have those here, who denigrate every bit of
 Maharishi's
 teaching, Guru Dev, TM and the siddhis. But these critics
 are not
 established in Being. They have weak and empty spiritual
 lives, and
 rather than working on that, they find it a great and happy
 distraction, to focus, instead, on someone else's
 perceived failings.


 That is not
 the purpose of this forum, to take pot shots at
 others, because of your own failures. I hope that Barry,
 Curtis and
 Michael all take this to heart, and the next time they open
 their
 mouths to fling an empty criticism at all things TM, they
 reflect,
 first, on their paucity of spiritual experience, and be
 aware of
 that.-Fleetwood
