[FairfieldLife] MMY-Quotes about TM-Teachers
. Quotes of Maharishi about TM-Teachers _ The intention of teaching: You don't know probably, there is nothing more dear to me than someone who has the intention of teaching TM. The teacher is nearest to my heart. He may not know it because it is difficult to give an expression to, but he is dearest to me, because he is that one light from where the whole area is going to be enlightend, the great hope for the present and for thousands of years to come. - Maharishi Mahesh Yogi There is no profession more grateful than that of a teacher. - Maharishi Mahesh Yogi I want to give you three advices: initiate, initiate, initiate! - Maharishi Mahesh Yogi Go for what you really want - not for what you think you can get. - Maharishi Mahesh Yogi If we think of defeat, that is what we get. If we are undecided then nothing will happen to us. We must just pick up something great to do and do it. Never think of failure at all. For what we think now that is what we get. - Maharishi Mahesh Yogs About the status of a TM-Teacher: The status of the sun is to radiate. The sun is not responsible if someone comes around with the umbrella. The sun doesn't mind. It just radiates. - Maharishi Mahesh Yogi Just do your best, mother nature will do the rest. - Maharishi Mahesh Yogi Create demand for your knowledge: Create demand for your knowledge and there will be a flow of money. Money from this field of knowledge will be so much that maybe very soon we think that we will have to spend. - Maharishi Mahesh Yogi, 31.12.92 The status of an initiator, the role of a teacher of transcendental meditation, is precious to the whole human race. It is precious to all the waves of time that will come. The responsibility, the dignity of the teacher of TM is invaluable. By grace of Guru Dev he is going to bring sunshine on earth for all time. - Maharishi Mahesh Yogi You swing with the wind, and that's all you have to do. I'll be blowing the wind ... sometimes very fresh ... sometimes maybe a little warmer ... so that the result will be that you come out to be weatherproof. - Maharishi Mahesh Yogi He who loves me, I can trust. The more someone loves me, the more bliss I can give him. You are all like flowers, and in my hand you are a beautiful bunch of flowers. - Maharishi Mahesh Yogi As you have been seeking for someone to guide you, I have been seeking for such people to come to me. And here we are. - Maharishi Mahesh Yogi, London, 1960 The movement belongs to those who move. - Maharishi Mahesh Yogi If you would know how much I care for each and everyone of you, you would be crazy. - Maharishi Mahesh Yogi I'm aware of your deep love and with such receptivity I see the future of world bright. We will continue to work towards the goal with Guru Dev in our hearts and divine intelligence in our mind. - Maharishi Mahesh Yogi, 29.08.1968 He who bears the torch can show the light. - Maharishi Mahesh Yogi, 31.12.92 There is no gift greater than the art of transcending. When you give unboundedness, then the heart expands. The more you give, the more the heart expands. Giving of knowledge is the greatest expansion of the heart. (Knowledge is the seed of fulfilment.) Anything else is not so effective for the expansion of the heart than teaching Transcendental Meditation. - Maharishi Mahesh Yogi J A I G U R U D E V ... -- Jetzt kostenlos herunterladen: Internet Explorer 8 und Mozilla Firefox 3.5 - sicherer, schneller und einfacher! http://portal.gmx.net/de/go/atbrowser

[FairfieldLife] Quotes by Paul McCartney and Ring Starr etc. about TM + MMY at the Concert
. They are all for TM and Maharishi!!! - Leonard, a TM-teacher from Geneva, has colleted the quotes reacently made by the STARS at the N.Y-Concert (Paul McCartney und Ring Starr etc.) Maybe you didn't know them yet. Enjoy ... Dear Friends, The evening at Radio City Music Hall in New York was AMAZING. (...) Below I collected some of the quotes of the concert’s stars in support of TM and of the David Lynch Foundation. And at the end you will find 3 links to songs by Sheryl Crow, Donovan, Paul McCartney... There are many more on Youtube. Jai Guru Dev Leonard Celebrities support TM in schools David Lynch Foundation benefit concert in New York, April 4, 2009 (excerpts) Sir Paul McCartney Putting [TM] into schools is a fabulous idea, because it’s all very well to talk about it, but when you actually put it in the mainstream this is what people need, they don’t need high-minded talk, so much as results. So for you to be able to say, the kids love it, the kids in the West bank love it, the kids in Brazil love it and you’re actually getting results... That’s what I love about what we’re involved in right now, why I’m so happy to do the concert, it’s so inspiring. In moments of madness, meditation has helped me find moments of serenity — and I would like to think that it would help provide young people a quiet haven in a not-so-quiet world. It was a great gift that Maharishi gave us. For me it came at a time when we were looking for something to stabilize us towards the end of the crazy sixties. It’s a lifelong gift, something you can call on at any time. Ringo Starr It gives me great pleasure to be part of this evening. I feel the aims of this charity are wonderful ! Over forty years ago, we ended up in Rishikkesh with Maharishi. Since then, sometimes a lot and sometimes a little, I have meditated. My mantra is a gift Maharishi gave me, something I could use and something no one could take away. It’s one of the few things I was ever given that means so much to me. Mike Love (Beach Boys) The David Lynch Foundation’s goal to teach a million children meditation will be like a million steps in the direction of world peace. Donovan How great to be playing with Paul, Ringo and Paul Horn again — as we did in India in 1968. And now we see the amazing results of our work from 40 years ago to bring meditation to the whole world. It’s the same message today, which is “Change begins within”. Paul Horn I’ve been meditating since 1966. In this age, so full of stress, young people gain the experience of the quietness and peace which lie within. This is then carried with them throughout the day, bringing a sense of greater joy, creativity, fulfillment. Sheryl Crow This event to me is one of the most important events to happen at this moment in history. Our kids are living with this chaos, this stress... The message that should be sent all around the world is that all of us on this planet can talk about peace, but peace begins within all of us... This is the right thing to do, this is what should be in the school system, but also should be part of our daily lives, throughout. Moby One of the things that impressed me so much about TM was its simplicity. It’s not ideologically driven, it’s not dogmatic, it’s a simple practice that calms the mind. Bettye LaVette Transcendental Meditation may very well be the thing that is able to help these unfortunate children better cope with the stressful world we live in today. Jerry Seinfeld (America’s greatest humorist) I did meditate actually before I came down here, I’ve been meditating 37 years ! Howard Stern (very famous radio journalist) I’ve been meditating for 38 years. I say to people, Maharishi was a living saint for what he has done for the world. I am so proud to stand before you tonight and say, somewhere Maharishi is looking at this crowd saying, this is wonderful, this is a fulfillment of desires. Russell Simmons (major U.S. hip-hop producer and philanthropist) I’m a meditator, I operate most days from my meditation. It gives me the ability to function in the world when the outside is full of stress. when I operate from my meditation, from that stillness, it’s much easier, it’s simple. My children are meditators. It’s changed their life, and I want to give this gift that I’ve given my children, to all kids. David Lynch This is not a luxury — this is the missing link to a healthy, happy, successful life. Sheryl Crow and Ben Harper : My Sweet Lord (Hommage to George Harrison) http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BwI-JZheplc Donovan and Sheryl Crow : Season of the Witch http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bb0TWutG_p4 Paul, Ringo, and all stars together : Cosmically Conscious/ It’s Such a Joy
[FairfieldLife] MMY: Everyone must create heaven on earth for himself!
. . Maharishi tells us: Everyone must create heaven on earth for himself - that results in: Millions of heavens on earth! - because the heaven on earth is created on the level of bliss. He says: Be innocently united in the experience of bliss, and heaven on earth will become a perpetual reality for whole mankind. It is on the level of ananda that we call the heaven to earth. By aligning ourselves with the reality of heaven within, we create heaven on earth. What will achieve heaven on earth is blissfulness. Just have the simple awareness that heaven is within - develop that inner awareness: that is the root to create heaven on earth. Everyone has to create heaven on earth for himself. Therefore, engage yourself, economically, socially ... (etc.). Having the kingdom of heaven within you, you have no right to suffer in life. Discovery of the unified field is discovery of millions of heavens on earth. I actually mean it, millions of heavens. - Maharishi Mahesh Yogi, 21.05.83 Jai Guru Dev -- Sensationsangebot verlängert: GMX FreeDSL - Telefonanschluss + DSL für nur 16,37 Euro/mtl.!* http://dsl.gmx.de/?ac=OM.AD.PD003K1308T4569a attachment: MMY_1961-Train to Brooklyn.jpg
[FairfieldLife] Tat Wale Baba - a friend of MMY - said ...
. Tat Wale Baba - a friend of Maharishi Mahesh Yogi - has said: __ Tat Wale Baba: That which is omnipresent doesn't have to be sought. It's there already. Start to be. That which is omnipresent is not to be sought; only our awareness has to be brought to that level and that bliss is there. You don't have to seek it. Understand? Unless we get into that omnipresent bliss, satisfaction is not going to come. If it were to come, it would have come by now through so many avenues in the world. But, it has not. Therefore, that which is the Self is your own being. You don't have to look in the outside. And, it is irrespective of any religious faiths or beliefs; Christians or Mormons or Hindus. That being is the knowledge itself. Only, you have to know. All these various manifestations of happiness that we experience in the world, they also are the manifestations of the same eternal being which is our own Self. If we are aware of the Self, if we know it, fine. Otherwise, we have to be. And, therefore, it is necessary to bring our awareness deep within ourselves. As deeply as we can bring our awareness to the Self, so intensely we can inherit that which is omnipresent in our day to day life. Having known that Self we will be eternally contented; remaining in the world we will live contentment. And, it's not a matter of detaching ourselves from the world. Only, we have to know It, and having known It, then, all different manifestations in the world will be experienced as manifestations of That. We don't have to detach ourselves. It is just a matter of bringing the awareness to that area, and be, and live It. Having gained this beautiful, perfect human nervous system, if we have known that element of the Self, then we have really used this wonderful diamond-like gift, this diamond-like nervous system which is capable of giving that eternal bliss. If it is not experienced, then we have wasted that gift of diamond. We have taken upon ourselves this human nervous system, not for the sake of petty enjoyment of changing nature in this relative field of change, but to live and be that infinite bliss. And, we will have to attain that thing whether we attain it in this life, or in the next, or in the next. We just can't forego that. Therefore, with the assistance of the guru and the scriptures, better to attain it quickly. Why postpone? Tat Wale Baba's talk was followed by an opportunity for questions to be asked. As each question was asked in English Maharishi Mahesh Yogi translated to Hindi, then translated Tat Wale Baba's replies. Student: Can he tell us of his master and the tradition he follows? TWB: The Self is free from any tradition or nontradition. MMY (adding his own comment): He is from the tradition of Shukadev. Shukadev was like him, not of this world. Away from it. Student: Can he tell us what kind of meditation he does? TWB: I am established in Vedanta and that way we talk about it, and we be. There is no practice as such. Student: What do you think about Transcendental Meditation? TWB: Transcendental Consciousness is the basis of all experience. Pure Consciousness is That through which we experience. That is not a thing which one can experience. And, all this world is in a state of Pure Consciousness, and it is through That that we experience everything. Pure Consciousness, or Transcendental Consciousness is nothing that we experience. Through That we are experiencing everything. That is the basis of all experience, and experiencing. So enjoy that state. Student: Is it possible to increase one's capacity to enjoy that state? TWB: We can increase it to any great extent through meditation. And as we go deeper, That will shine forth in our life outside. So, it's possible to increase our ability to be That. And, that is through meditation. Student: Does he have any techniques that he teaches his disciples? TWB: We are sitting in the forest, and when we are sitting in the forest we have some purpose to perform, and with that we are sitting. If some seeker comes and asks, fine. We give advice. Otherwise, we don't have much time. We are in the forest, and we are in the forest for some purpose. But, if some seeker comes, fine. His doubts are cleared and removed. Student: Does he think that his way of life helps the rest of mankind or only him? TWB: All these saints meditating and established in the Self, they are the basis for all this running of the entire universe, and they are the basis of the whole thing, and not for themselves alone. Their good vibrations are influencing societies for their advancement. Student: Like a powerhouse? TWB: Like a powerhouse. The powerhouse is in Delhi and the bulb is shining here. It is not the bulb that is shining. It's the power from the powerhouse. It is the saints established in their Self who are infusing life into

[FairfieldLife] MMY + Shankara: The Guru-Disciple Relationship
. The Guru-Disciple Relationship In this path of the Divine as it is the case in any other path of knowledge, the importance of the Master is the greatest. If you get a good Master, it takes you quickly, if not - keep on going slowly, slowly and there is no end to it. The finding of a proper Master is all that an aspirant on the path of truth has to do - just a proper Master, not only on the path of truth, even on the path of engineering or doctory (medicine) or psychology - any of that - the coming across a right Master, a right guide and almost the whole thing is done. Because, the finding of a Master means someone who tells you like that - for the Divine is omnipresent. Omnipresent Divine, its nature blissful, so the bliss being omnipresent. How long a mind should take to get to it? Should not take long, but if you do not strike against the right Master, you keep on going round and round and round and you do not find anything. In this field when we leave here and find a proper Master, we just surrender to him, all body and mind, one-pointed in consciousness remains the individuality of the Master. No looking here or there, just at his feet obedience and obeisance. I know what a surrender to a Master is, because I have been through that. Once the surrender is done the work of spiritual quest is done. It does not need anything more to be done. You see, to meditate and transcend and get to the being and come out and with this practice bringing the mind out to the field of outer gross life is one way of achieving cosmic consciousness. The path of surrender is another way. The path of surrender starts by tuning the mind with the mind of the Master. Tuning the mind with the mind of the Master means: Whatever he likes, I begin to like. I begin to forgo my liking if he wants me to go that way, I go that way. And having gone halfway if he wants me to turn, I turn. And again he wants me to go that way, I go that way. If he wants to return I return. Nothing of my will everything His will. This is how by foregoing our own likings and disliking, adjusting our mind to the mind of the Master, that is picked up by the disciple, and that is the most important thing. If he asks to do this, you do this. If gone halfway, he wants us to stop, we stop. You don't feel in the least that 'Oh, so much effort has been put and now he wants me to stop!' - nothing like that. The way he turns, we turn, the way He likes, we like, the thing that He dislikes, we begin to dislike. This is how one begins to forego his liking and disliking and begins to tune his mind to the mind of his Master. In this line it is not the work that is important, it is the flow of His mind that is to be kept, and that is important. As the Master wants, so he moves, His likes and dislikes begin to become the likes and dislikes of the disciple. Like that he attunes his mind. When the mind of the disciple is completely tuned to the mind of the Master, then the thoughts of the Master become the thoughts of the disciple. The feelings of the Master become the feelings of the disciple and when that attunement is gained - because the mind of the Master is cosmic consciousness - the status of the mind of the disciple gets to that standard automatically. The relationship of the disciple and the Master is - two bodies and one existence, two minds and one mind. Thus is how, because the natural state of the Master's mind is cosmic consciousness, the mind of the disciple is cultured to that state in a spontaneous, automatic manner. - Maharishi Mahesh Yogi *** There are three things which are rare indeed, and which are attained through the grace of god, namely, a human birth, desire for liberation, and the protecting care of a perfected sage. - Shri Adi Shankara JAI GURU DEV ... -- GMX startet ShortView.de.

[FairfieldLife] MMY: Alternative Currency for Removal of Poverty
. About the alternative currency of the TM-Movement for Removal of Poverty http://www.poverty-removal.org/page11.html __ The Coupon Principle Todays Coupon is Tomorrows Hard Currency The Poverty Removal Programme depends on large amounts of funds available at the beginning of the programme, in order to build new villages for the farmers and give them the experience of poverty removal right at the start of the project. Therefore the coupon principle is also offered as a possibility to complement the loans from foreign and local banks, because these loans are usually available for small projects that do not serve the purpose of eliminating poverty in the nation as a whole; they tend to use the farmers for hard work, while maintaining poverty in the nation. The initial start-up cost, at the rate of US$ 4,000/ hectare, can easily be organized by the government by issuing coupons or tokens (complementary currency of the national government in the form of a coupon or token) for a specific period of three years and for specific areas of the country where the organic agriculture will be undertaken. These coupons or tokens will be repaid to the government from the export revenue of the organic products. As soon as we begin to export, even after one year of the project, we will start converting the coupons or tokens into hard currency. (Refer to Appendix 5 for historical references showing how tokens have been used to meet the need of the time when required.) Through the skills of export-oriented production, this years coupon or token will be next years hard currency. This is the speciality of our programme to eliminate poverty through the coupon principle; it eliminates the need for outside money, and the pressure of outside loans. Millions of hectares can be cultivated in this way in each of the forty countries. Our strength is that any government is a government with the ability to do anything by making any laws in favour of the people. Every government is a sovereign government and has the ability to make any law in favour of life. http://www.poverty-removal.org/page11.html ... ___ EINE FÜR ALLE: die kostenlose WEB.DE-Plattform für Freunde und Deine Homepage mit eigenem Namen.

[FairfieldLife] MMY about Music
. Music is the flow of consciousness, and consciousness is the home of all the Laws of Nature. By creating thrills in pure consciousness, the musician is able to utilize the total influence of all the Laws of Nature. - Maharishi Music and Maharishi's Science of Creative Intelligence 12 March 2008 In this talk, printed in the second of four volumes for educators entitled Maharishi Speaks to Educators: Mastery over Natural Law, Maharishi saying that his Science of Creative Intelligence provides the knowledge that will allow music to fulfil its essential role of enabling man to understand his innermost Self and the outer-most limits of creation. In classical Greek culture, music was recognized as one of the four mathematical sciences. In the modern world, however, music has continued to flourish as an art form, but has ceased to be a discipline through which the deepest Laws of Nature can be discerned. Maharishi has said that music is the flow of consciousness. Without a science of consciousness, no comprehensive theory of music could be formulated. Now the Science of Creative Intelligence is that science of consciousness that is needed to bring fulfilment to the theory and practice of music. The structuring of music sound is a replica of the mechanics of creation, Maharishi said. Every tone starts from silence, from the unmanifest field, and within each tone is the potential form for all possible subsequent tones. This is analogous to the first manifestation of creation, which contains within it a seed of all potentialities for further manifestation and evolution. In the Age of Enlightenment, music will provide the most profound knowledge of creation, and will fulfil the individual through the sublime knowledge of his own creativity. Music is the flow of life, Maharishi continued, the flow of absolute bliss consciousness. Since music is the flow of consciousness, the flow will be as delicate as the purity of the musician's awareness. Music has always been an inspiration for higher values of life. Through the upsurge of fine emotions generated by the delicate impulses of music, life becomes pure and rises to express the dignity of unboundedness and bliss, which is the nature of life. The most important aspect of a musician's life is the delicacy of his own emotions. As stress is dissolved, and purity of consciousness grows through the practice of Maharishi's Transcendental Meditation and Transcendental Meditation Sidhi Programme the heart and emotions begin to flow in very delicate impulses. That is the beginning of the melody of life, Maharishi said. The purpose of music is to touch and refine the deep core of the heart, and thereby to purify the emotions. When the musician's awareness pulsates in that most delicate value of life, he has a purifying influence on the whole society. The tenderness of emotions developed through Maharishi's Transcendental Meditation makes a musician successful and his music delightful. The musician's awareness must be so delicate as to be one with the impulses that constitute Cosmic Life, and then the thrills of music will be the song of eternity, said Maharishi. During the practice of Transcendental Meditation the mind settles down to a state of perfect silence, the state of bliss consciousness. Through music one generates impulses of consciousness in order to bring this influence of bliss out into the field of daily activity. The study of music makes every aspect of life musical, in tune with unboundedness, Maharishi continued. Music raises life to Unity Consciousness, in which every boundary breathes the melody of the unbounded. Creation is full of differences. The purpose of music is to establish harmony and unity in the midst of all differences and to harmonize differences to produce something more than the collection of parts: wholeness of life. - Music is the flow of consciousness, and consciousness is the home of all the Laws of Nature. By creating thrills in pure consciousness, the musician is able to utilize the total influence of all the Laws of Nature. Music arising from pure consciousness is the eternal music of universal life. - It is an intellectual joy to study the laws involved in structuring music, but the development of musical talent will be on the basis of the development of purity of emotions. __ Info: http://maharishi-programmes.globalgoodnews.com/achievements/index.html spoke to the faculty of Maharishi University of Management http://www.mum.edu/ http://www.vedicknowledge.com/what_is.html http://transcendental-meditation.globalgoodnews.com/ http://www.tm.org/sidhi/index.html Jai Guru Dev ...

[FairfieldLife] MMY: Enlightenment and the Grace of God
. At a press conference times ago I had a chance to ask MMY a question. Actually I ask about the very last step to enlightenment, but I was presented to him in this way: Question: How is enlightenment achieved? Is the state of enlightenment achieved by mechanical means through regular practice of Transcendental Meditation or does enlightenment become established through the grace of god? Maharishi: Both things are the same thing. - We remember a phrase: 'God helps those who help themselves.' - God helps those who help themselves. When we know how to light a lamp, we should light a lamp. And then when we light a lamp and suddenly the darkness is gone, we say: 'Oh yes, thank god.' Always we have god in our awareness. God is that fullness, fullness of all possibilities. And that is characterised in our own atman, in our own self. Self-referral consciousness is a total disclosure of, we can say, god's grace, god's will. And then we say merciful god. All these things have been throughout the ages. Now we begin to see a better world in the same old light of god, same old light of natural law, some old light of consciousness, of intelligence, infinite creative power. All these are beautiful exhortations about our own creative potential, everyone's own creative potential. God is within you, within me, within this, within that, within this. So much so - god is omnipresent. God is omnipresent. Omnipresent, omnipresent, omnipresent. That's why throughout the ages human awareness has been wanting, has been trying, has been associating with this field of intelligence, a lively field of all possibilities. In this generation we say transcendental consciousness. Because for omnipresent, for omnipresent, one has to transcend the field of change. So Transcendental Meditation brings transcendental field of consciousness, unified field of intelligence. Self-referral is the value of the omnipresent, omniscient, omnipotent field of god's grace. There is some joy in saying: 'god's grace.' - 'I' am doing this. 'I' am doing this. There is some kind of not such pleasantness. Not such fabulous expanded awareness. But 'god', there is some warmth in it. Some warmth in it. There is some real upsurge of intelligence in it. It is something. It is beyond words. Something real. Something very very real. And that reality is, when our own awareness transcends the boundaries. When it transcends boundaries then it's unbounded omnipresence of god. Something profound. It is beyond speech to describe it all. It's a great reality of life. It's a great reality of life. It's a great joy of life. - Maharishi Mahesh Yogi, 7th May 2003 Jai Guru Dev ... _ Der WEB.DE SmartSurfer hilft bis zu 70% Ihrer Onlinekosten zu sparen! http://smartsurfer.web.de/?mc=100071distributionid=0066 To subscribe, send a message to: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Or go to: http://groups.yahoo.com/group/FairfieldLife/ and click 'Join This Group!'

[FairfieldLife] Re: MMY on Phase Transition
. The date of the lecture of MMY (to which this text relates) is the: 5th May 1992. The message of this text is just as fresh and relevant as if the message were from today - as the global (and personal?) turbulance is going on ... It seems to be a very long going on turbulent phase transition. (But: Be aware of the lenght of the ages ...!) So the message Don't get shaken. Stay by your Self is still to be taken seriously. Maharishi strongly emphasised the great need to be completely self-referral during these times ...! Jai Guru Dev __ From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Date: 30.09.07 01:19:40 To: FairfieldLife@yahoogroups.com MMY on Phase Transition Be unshakable now! We are in the middle of the phase transition. - Maharishi strongly emphasised the great need to be completely self-referral during these times of very rapid phase transition. He said that there was quite a lot of unsettledness ('bubbling around') in world consciousness at present and that it is the responsibility of the whole meditating family, who are creating a stable basis for the transition to take place as quickly and as smoothly as possible, not to feel shaken. This is very necessary because on the surface the phase transition is so violent. In order to establish order, disorder has to be shaken; and for that shaking to remain under control, we who are at the basis, at the level of Para, have to be Para i.e. unreachable by the surface turmoil. In that integrated state, the fast moving chaos and change will pass away in a steady manner. So we have to be very steady. Maharishi referred to the 'Sahasra Ati Sri Rudra Abhivishek' yagya at present being performed ... and indicated that this was creating an enormous shaking around in world consciousness. Rudra corresponds to the dynamism value in nature (as 'RRR' in Rig-Veda) and this dynamism is what is being released by the yagya and causing the shaking at all levels of creation. When the eight prakritis (the basic building blocks of creation) are shaken, Apara (i.e. relativity) is getting sorted out to come into coherence with Para (i.e. absolute). The yagya involves 11 times 11 times 11 pundits ... We have to be careful not to get upset by little or big things. If we loose our basis, our dignity, the phase transition will take much longer. Don't give importance to things which may upset us, Maharishi said. This is a very precious time for the world. Everything depends on how our awareness is; just don't let it be shaken. Our awareness is the basis of all these transformations. More than ever before we are ourselves. We are at the basis of the power of Rudra. Time demands we remain completely ourselves. It is a very tender, delicate time for us we should not become angry, indifferent, or sad, we should just be like an ocean. The evolutionary power is waking up. We shake it, then leave it; then after some time shake it again. Each time a new level of purity, awakening is added ... It is the awakening of both values: Para and Apara, says Maharishi. _ Jai Guru Dev ... _ Der WEB.DE SmartSurfer hilft bis zu 70% Ihrer Onlinekosten zu sparen! http://smartsurfer.web.de/?mc=100071distributionid=0066 To subscribe, send a message to: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Or go to: http://groups.yahoo.com/group/FairfieldLife/ and click 'Join This Group!'
