That would mean having 20 horoscopes calculated and printed out in a form that can be electronically sent. You would not even have to send your birthday data. A horoscope is supposed to contain all there is about you, the birth date is only needed to generate it. So you would probably need a program to generate the output. Use 20 different dates, and use the correct one only once. Actually you need your birth location and time to the second. Remove any dates of birth in the output. Then an astrologer has to work entirely from the horoscope, rather than pick up on visual and verbal cues from the person. In other words, you cannot be pumped for acknowledging feedback that gives them clues as to what you think about what they say. What you say on the web will persist.

Ravi, I get this...I completely understand this. Also, I watched your Bat Gap (most of it) interview this week. It helped me with my current situation because something very odd is going on with me energetically. Maybe its a brain tumor. Maybe it's just that the work my cranial sacral guy is doing to subtly manipulate my structure to clear the blockages and allow it to receive and express life force energy (or something like that...again, I am trying not to over think or ask too much of my brain at this time) is working.

I simply could not understand Sri Bhagavan on the video John sent so I decided to transcribe him and then I had to comment below because it was so non-sensical. I did understand OSHO - his word choices came across more clearly and he was far funnier, I must say. Sri Bhagavan and OSHO are trying to say the same thing...are they not? If one pulls way up and doesn't getting confused by the minutia or their personal beliefs [such as OSHO stating that God raped the Virgin Mary and marriage inhibits freedom (paraphrased)]? Sri Bhagavan speaks more indirectly. I think he may be trying to cater to the American puritan roots and his ability with the English language may be inhibiting clear thought presentation as well. OSHO always has a crazy look in his eye and had me ROTFLMAO, if for no other reason than the pure irreverence of his statements. Word Up...

LOL..on watching my Batgap video, I was very high, looking back the interview was probably a bit premature. I agree with most of what I said, its more like talking about a game while the game's still on. I can do a much better post-match analysis now, but who knows may be the game's still on?? So whatever happened was probably the best. When you say Scorpio is that Tropical zodiac? I'm a Scorpio myself, not by the virtue of Sun being in Tropical Scorpio but my Mars, Venus
[FairfieldLife] Re: [Fairfield Life] Can an enlightened person have lust?
This conversation has been kicked around plenty and is now passe. However, I'm sending this anyway. I simply could not understand Sri Bhagavan on the video John sent so I decided to transcribe him and then I had to comment below because it was so non-sensical. I did understand OSHO - his word choices came across more clearly and he was far funnier, I must say. Sri Bhagavan and OSHO are trying to say the same thing...are they not? If one pulls way up and doesn't getting confused by the minutia or their personal beliefs [such as OSHO stating that God raped the Virgin Mary and marriage inhibits freedom (paraphrased)]? Sri Bhagavan speaks more indirectly. I think he may be trying to cater to the American puritan roots and his ability with the English language may be inhibiting clear thought presentation as well. OSHO always has a crazy look in his eye and had me ROTFLMAO, if for no other reason than the pure irreverence of his statements. Word Up... Who has time for all that psychological romance stuff. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MZjAantupsA SRI BHAGAVAN - transcribed Question: Does lust exist for an enlightened person? Answer: Enlightened people can also have children, like unenlightened people. (Meaning that enlightened people can procreate...obviously - it's a biological function.) If an enlightened person has got lust, we can talk about lust, biologicallust. In normal people, it is psychological lust. (Biological/psychological...it's all interrelated and it's all biological because that's the way the hormones work in the body. He's parsing to make a point, which is that enlightened people can have lust too, so yes, John, please feel free to sleep with your wife this week too :). He's just trying to create an artificial boundary in order to keep the enlightened man in a separate category.) For the enlightened person, it is more animal like, it is just part of the body, that's all (I think that perhaps what he is really trying to say is that the enlightened man realizes that consciousness encompasses (wrong word choice?) the body and that the body comes with animal instinctsyes, my kids started learning how their body works in elementary school..no big aha moment here.) Now, the unenlightened person can sit alone and be thinking about lust (Yes, she can). The enlightened man cannot do that because the mind doesn't come up with supporting pictures. (Yeah, right - FFL is a good example of the truth of this statement.) So, there is no mental lust or psychological lust. (Again, it's all the same thing so yes, there is. He's also speaking to our American puritan-based roots which create self-talk that says...we know it's wrong but we can't help ourselves. ). But, let us say there is a woman - understanding there can be physical lust. And of course he (the enlightened man) is not going to violate any law and may have a relationship with his wife and produce children. But, this biological lust is really really little (Yeah, right) - and can be a good solution to population problems (Please, stop). But, then let us say there is a person - an enlightened person - and there is a woman going there and there is physical lust. After she moves away from the range of vision - it's gone - he cannot think about her (I think he's trying to say that an enlightened man stays in the moment). Lust came, lust went - that's all. It will not cause a problem (It might for the woman...stereotypical male statement). But, the other (unenlightened man) will be thinking ofwill go off and chase.that does not happen for the enlightened person (Yeah, like celebrities. Women come to them.) After this week of reading all your posts, I might beg to differ on that point, but never mind me, I'm an unenlightened, depressed, stressed, fear-based, shame-based, slightly overweight, immuno-compromised, middle-aged, woman. Whew - now there's a good visual. Luckily, my personal version of the hopey-changey thing is beginning to work for me. I don't always know what FFL is saying, but what I'm hearing is: It's o.k., you can be here, we have a lot of experience with realities here, we are experts in management here. Oh, by the way, have you heard the one about the Raja's and the Domers? OSHO http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5ocbZhRQS9I No transcribing needed. Freedom-hoppin' starts in pretty good here after the song gets rolling - tee hee: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2rd8VzNGjL0feature=related
Re: [FairfieldLife] Re: [Fairfield Life] Can an enlightened person have lust?
Denise, Yes - What Sri Bhagwan says is exactly what Osho would have said. I have said before, but I would say that for an enlightened there is lust but there is no pain and suffering. Animal-like, animals have sex but it's not mental, it's not in the mind (which Sri Bhagwan referred to as psychological), they don't suffer from guilt, shame. In the absence of beliefs such as sex is sin - sex is seen for what it is just a biological need. No shame, no guilt, no archetypal guilt of abuser or being abused, hence no pain or suffering.

Re: [FairfieldLife] Re: [Fairfield Life] Can an enlightened person have lust?
Dear Denise, FWIW I don't say anything anything that's not my experience. I kept my fucking mouth shut for 38 years - in fact I thought it was stupid to engage in spiritual discussions. My experiences on sex match Sri Bhagwan and Osho say. I was tremendously blessed by the existence to marry a woman who made me feel like an abuser, pimp for daring to even entertain the thoughts of having sex with my own wife. I was extremely virile, with strong sexual desire but for me sex always followed love so I couldn't beg my ex for sex, I was too proud nor was I like John, Willytex to force myself on her because I had a fucking license to sleep with her. I suffered tremendously with shame, guilt, my sexual fantasies. Not to talk about the anger, bitterness I felt at being constantly rejected of the tremendous love and attraction I felt for my ex. I was forced to internalize them and through the grace of Mother Kali power heal and ascend. You can't blame for that can you? My ex was only Guru.
