Re: [FairfieldLife] Re: Non-biological Intelligence
A comment to be expected from the Turq. We all know that psychiatric wards are full of people being treated with psychofarma for having glimpses of higher states of consciousness they are not able to integrate in daily life. Experiences any real Sadhana will also give. The reason the Turq doesn't understand this is because he is a quitter that never did any Sadhana for any length of time in his entire life, instead choosing to live in a fantasy world believing his guru is respected and welcomed by heads of state everywhere. I'm sure there is a diagnosis for such fantasies as well. ---In FairfieldLife@yahoogroups.com, turquoiseb@... wrote : You realize, do you not, that you have just described yourself in a way that any psychiatrist in the world would diagnose as psychotic.

Re: [FairfieldLife] Re: Non-biological Intelligence
What Nabby is describing is called retinal fatique, prolonged staring at an object without the eyes moving exhausts the chemistry in the retina responsible for the detection of light. If when this happens and you look away at a light surface, you see a negative image, colours reversed that persists for a while (after image) while the chemistry refreshes. The eyes also do not remain completely still but naturally saccade, which partially helps to prevent retinal fatigue when one is not deliberately staring at something, which reduces but does not eliminate the saccade. Because of the scacade, the after image formed by staring does not perfectly line up with the object which can account for edge effects around the object viewed. I suppose this could be mistaken for some kind of 'spiritual' experience by the uninitiated, but it is just 'looking at something'. Spiritual experiences are just artefacts of the nervous system releasing prior conditioned responses and a person feels, for a while, clearer, freer etc., but eventually realises or rather actually accommodates to the new clearer, freer experience which then just seems normal, everyday. Eventually a realisation comes that the only thing that exists is normal everyday experience, minus certain ideas about what normal everyday experience is.

From: anartax...@yahoo.com [FairfieldLife] FairfieldLife@yahoogroups.com What Nabby is describing is called retinal fatique, prolonged staring at an object without the eyes moving exhausts the chemistry in the retina responsible for the detection of light. Exactly. But they can't feel all self-important and special if they tell people that they experienced plain old everyday retinal fatigue, so they dress it up with fancy Woo Woo language the way that Jim and Nabby just did. If when this happens and you look away at a light surface, you see a negative image, colours reversed that persists for a while (after image) while the chemistry refreshes.

Re: [FairfieldLife] Re: Non-biological Intelligence
yep, this is what Maharishi would probably call, normalization of the eyesight. Once the link from pure Being to activity is realized, through the TMSP, all the senses begin to purify, resolving their ability to bring to consciousness, the entire spectrum of experience, of every sense, from the grossest physical manifestation, through the subtle layers, on to pure awareness. The eyes go first, and then the other senses, so that, after first experiencing the link between pure awareness and any sense, all the rest gets filled in, so to speak. What you describe is energetic sight, and there are many other ways of using the vision, also (incorporating time and space travel, going inside the body, investigating other non-physical realms of existence, and developing relationships there, etc.). This investigation is brought about by having the ability to uncover the entire spectrum of the senses, in a methodical way, taking it out of the realm of the mystical, and instead, as a manifestation of the science of Yoga; Union. The heart is what leads the way, and the rest follows. After the eyes naturally resolve every object into pure awareness, the other senses follow, so that we smell pure awareness, touch it, taste it, and hear pure awareness.

Re: [FairfieldLife] Re: Non-biological Intelligence
this was the way Benjamin Creme had become such a perennial icon on the guru circuit for so long: He wasn’t giving a lot away. And as long as he just brings news of Maitreya’s imminent arrival but the Big Guy never shows up, Benjamin Creme is still The Man. But it just makes you wonder: What would it be like to be Benjamin Creme? It’s the old deception versus self-deception thing. You gotta admire the guy’s persistence, but out on the road, in the quiet of his Comfort Inn, does he feel like the Willy Loman of the guru circuit?

Excellent Turq! A good compilation showing that Benjy is a rather lame non-entity even amongst New Age freaks.

But as we all know, Nabby does. To find out how *he* stacks up against the choosing to live in a fantasy world believing his guru is respected criterion, I searched for the most common tags applied to any reference to him on the Internet and found: Benjamin Creme Maitreya world spiritual fraud phony false world messiah charlatan There were also wonderful quotes, such as: Creme is a marginalized figure even amongst his fellow New Age devotees; most likely because of his insistence upon an imminent appearance of a self-proclaimed Messiah. Creme was always at the outskirts of the Theosophical crowd, and hardly achieved anything of importance. For example, in his monumental work on the New Age, False Dawn, Lee Penn spends a total of a paragraph and a half (and two footnotes) discussing Benjamin Creme and his Share International (pp. 314, 418, 462) – as basic an outline as possible. Likewise, esoteric scholar Wouter J. Hanegraaff, in his New Age Religion and Western Culture, devotes but one sentence on Creme (p. 101). And of course there is this wonderful description in the New York Observer, written by Ron Rosenbaum: Long John is long gone, but Coast to Coast AM is there to keep you in touch with the night side of the culture that Long John first gave national voice to. You can still find that special undying brand of weirdness there. Updated, yes, and sometimes with the same kind of conspiracy theory you can find all over the Web, but still with room for iconic occult curiosities like Benjamin Creme, who appeared at 2 a.m. on a recent show. You know of Benjamin Creme, right, and his relation to Jesus, and you know about Benjamin Creme’s prophetic function in regard to the coming of the Super Fifth Degree Master and Teacher, the great and mighty all-powerful Maitreya, who outranks Jesus himself, right? Well, don’t feel bad if you don’t. To recognize the name Benjamin Creme, you probably have to be, as I am, an assiduous student of New Age rhetoric and literature (I believe in what Stephen Greenblatt first called a “poetics of culture” before it was renamed and mass-marketed to grad students as “the New Historicism”). Anyway, while following New Age trends and obsessions, I noticed that Benjamin Creme was always a little on the fringes of the New Age guru circuit, but the guy seemed to have staying power. He always seemed to turn up in the New Age lecture calendars, a distinguished-looking gentleman who had something to say about the Second Coming of the Christ. I recall something about Jesus having already come back, that he was living quietly in London, awaiting recognition. I somehow had the impression—mistaken, I now realize—that he was implicitly suggesting that he was Jesus (he lived in London). But I guess it was more a matter of him having inside info on the London Christ’s plans for revealing himself. It gets confusing, and I could be wrong, but after listening to his appearance on Coast to Coast AM recently, I got the impression that Benjamin Creme’s emphasis has shifted from Jesus to an entity called Maitreya, who outranks Jesus in the Ascended Master hierarchy. Benjamin Creme is apparently in “telepathic contact” with one of the Fourth Degree Masters and in sporadic contact with the Master of All Masters, this dude Maitreya, who’s planning to reveal himself and set us all straight so that all humanity will start caring and sharing like the great big family we all are. About time. I have to admit that listening to Benjamin Creme being interviewed by George Noory on Coast to Coast AM was a little frustrating. (Mr. Noory said that after Mr. Creme’s last appearance, a number of listeners called in to say they’d become physically ill afterward because they felt something coming through the radio. And there was some discussion of whether or not Maitreya might be the Antichrist). Mr. Creme was somewhat evasive about who the hell this Maitreya might be, what his deal is, why he doesn’t manifest himself already aside from sporadic appearances in other people’s bodies, like that time in Nairobi. (Mr. Creme’s Web site, in case you want to try to figure it out, is www.shareintl.org.) There was some dialogue on whether Maitreya had “suspended” his visits. Or whether he was coming “very soon,” and also what exactly he was coming for and why he was waiting. I mean, if we need help from a Teacher to get us caring and sharing, couldn’t he have shown up in, say, 1914? So there was a bit

prolonged staring at an Object Was this even mentioned in my post ? Your reasoning is superficial and silly. ---In FairfieldLife@yahoogroups.com, turquoiseb@... wrote : From: anartaxius@... [FairfieldLife] FairfieldLife@yahoogroups.com What Nabby is describing is called retinal fatique, prolonged staring at an object without the eyes moving exhausts the chemistry in the retina responsible for the detection of light. If when this happens and you look away at a light surface, you see a negative image, colours reversed that persists for a while (after image) while the chemistry refreshes. The eyes also do not remain completely still but naturally saccade, which partially helps to prevent retinal fatigue when one is not deliberately staring at something, which reduces but does not eliminate the saccade. Because of the scacade, the after image formed by staring does not perfectly line up with the object which can account for edge effects around the object viewe I suppose this could be mistaken for some kind of 'spiritual' experience by the uninitiated, but it is just 'looking at something'. Spiritual experiences are just artefacts of the nervous system releasing prior conditioned responses and a person feels, for a while, clearer, freer etc., but eventually realises or rather actually accommodates to the new clearer, freer experience which then just seems normal, everyday. Eventually a realisation comes that the only thing that exists is normal everyday experience, minus certain ideas about what normal everyday experience is.

If they are more advanced they might turn up as robots with their DNA (or fundamentally equivalent) stored somewhere and then they'll convert any matter they find into themselves. It all must be possible because we are made out of bits of the universe so there aint no reason why something with advanced knowledge can't transmute other bits, or even empty space, into whatever they like. But the fact that's possible and we can't see any evidence of the sort of things they could build might mean we are on our own or that nobody ever gets further than us. Not round these parts anyway. Or it it might be something even stranger that turns up and freaks us out. It's all a mystery but given how many hoops we had to jump through on this planet to get how we are, can life like us be common?

[FairfieldLife] Re: Non-biological Intelligence
Share, It all depends on what you believe is the basis of the universe. If you believe that consciousness is the basis of the universe, it is likely that you would say biological intelligence is the more common way of development. This is because we know this happens on earth where humans exist. Non-biological intelligence implies that this is created by another type of beings--more likely humans or biological entities. I can see how a non-biological intelligence could be an advantage. For example, robots can direct and maintain the functions of a spaceship for centuries, without eating and sleeping like humans, until the destination is reached. In the distant future, humans could develop these intelligent robots to take human sperms and eggs to a nearby or distant star in the Milky Way. When an earthlike planet is reached or found, the robots can artificially inseminate the eggs with sperms to grow human beings who will populate or repopulate the new world. But if there is a faster way to get to the other worlds, then the assumptions would be different. ---In FairfieldLife@yahoogroups.com, sharelong60@... wrote : John and salyavin, thanks, I enjoyed both these articles and thoroughly appreciate the concluding remarks: So, how do we prepare for something we know so little about?
