(And i know you said "seemingly" so you may be thinking similar thoughts.) Beyond the implication that they are opposing forces, another implication is that one is high and one is low. I question both implications or assumptions. Sex worker possibly relive way more stress in the population than TM or Mindfulness -- both physical and emotional. They put a smile on people face. They can be artistic. They are often perhaps more engaged in society -- raising kids, getting degrees, saving to start their own business. On average, they appear to get along better than and have less ego issues than long term TMers. And if the ME does not do what it says -- a huge stretch for most of you I know -- then sex workers are contributing to the world and spiritual dilitantes are simply self indulgent. So you may be right about the opposites thing. Only it may be that sex workers are the positive force. Perhaps you should go into a TM enter and write a short story about strip clubs and brothels. > As > usual :-), I have a Bruce Cockburn line that seems > to capture the phenomenon: > > You see the extremes > Of what humans can be > In that distance some tension's born > Energy surging like a storm > You plunge your hand in > And draw it back scorched > Beneath it's shining like gold > But better > Rumours of glory > > It's the Tantric counterpart to the story of Ulysses > and the sirens from the Odyssey.

Is it available on the Net? No, sorry...it is not. The master copy was on a laptop that died, and foolishly without a backup. I'd have to recreate it to allow any- one to read it, and I don't know if I could do that without being there in the room at the time. The "razor's edge" you speak of is NOT some- thing that appeals to all spiritual seekers. Many actually FEAR things that they have been told are "unholy." They avoid such things like the plague, and thus IMO avoid a good education in "the extremes of what humans can be." But there are some of us who took the "Unity" thing literally, and do not see any difference in the the "potential for enlightenment" between a celibate monk and a stripper in a Las Vegas club. Funnily enough, Buddha didn't see that difference, either. That's one of the reasons I like the dude and his "take" on spirituality. Forget the koan, "Does a dog have Buddha-nature?" If you want to see where a person lives, pose them the koan, "Does a hooker have Buddha- nature?" Their response indicates, IMO, whether or not THEY have the potential of realizing their own Buddha-nature in this incarnation. All I know is that I have had some of my highest experiences in this incarnation in settings and among people that many spiritual seekers would characterize as "low vibe." Being able to see in them their "higher side" has always enlivened that same "higher side" in me. Or so it seemed, anyway. I have very little tolerance for "holier than thou" types. Perhaps you can tell. I tend to find their definition of "holy" to be equivalent to "elitist." The spiritual teachers I revere ( and I really *do* still revere some of them ) were the ones who emphasized the debilitating effects of self importance. My experience on the spiritual path for over forty years now has indicated to me that self importance is the greatest trap that any seeker or any group of seekers could ever fall into. And when they not only fall into it but fall into it so far that they *look down* on those who are "less important"...? Forget the Christian concept of Hell. Anyone who lives in the state of attention that allows them to believe that they are important enough to look down on others because those others live a different lifestyle than they do don't have to wait for the fires of Hell and the tortures of the damned after death. They're already damned here and now. IMO, of course. :-) > --- In FairfieldLife@yahoogroups.com, TurquoiseB wrote: > > > > --- In FairfieldLife@yahoogroups.com, Bhairitu wrote: > > > > > > I knew some young strippers who were at some jyotish > > > workshops.

Interesting rap TurquoiseB and Bhairitu. Thanks. Years ago I lived and worked in Las Vegas for a year. To this day I am still fascinated by the phenomenology of experiencing those intense vibes day after day but remaining mindfully aware and not becoming overshadowed. I was never able to put into words in even a moderately adequate way what it felt like. The Surfing metaphor you touched on is one I always liked, but found the Razor's Edge analogy from the Katha Upanishad and Maugham to be better at evoking the immediate peril always present... ..prolly comes from growing up landlocked in an era before Trac II cartridge blades.:-) I'd enjoy reading that story that you wrote in Detroit but did not include in RoadTrip.

Re: [FairfieldLife] Re: Ample Breasts
Along the lines of this subject I watched "The Wrestler" last night. Superb movie. Though "Milk" was very good though not Van Sant's best in my opinion and Sean Penn's portrayal of Harvey Milk excellent it didn't come anywhere near the achievement of Mickey Rourke's portrayal of a down and out aging wrestler and Penn seemed to acknowledge that by acknowledging Rourke in his acceptance at the Oscars. "The Wrestler" works on many levels and there is a parallel in the character of the wrestler and the character of the aging stripper played by Marisa Tomei. Darren Aronofsky seems to put out great movies in years when "cause" win awards. I always felt that Ellen Burstyn was robbed of an Oscar for her role in Aronofsky's "Requiem for a Dream." Julia Roberts won that year for yet another "cause" movie "Erin Brockavitch." "The Wrestler" is also a movie that reflects the current times as Rourke's character is symbolic of what many people are facing finding work and surviving in a failing economy.

So Ulysses had his crew's ears stuffed with wax so that they couldn't hear the siren song and then had them tie him to the mast, with ears unplugged, so that he *could* hear it.

Re: [FairfieldLife] Re: Ample Breasts
I knew some young strippers who were at some jyotish workshops. I also knew a lingerie model (who had also worked with California Hardbodies) who was very interested in spiritual things, astrology and ayurveda. OTOH, knowing the drink prices (and minimums) at strip clubs I can't believe you actually hung out at one to write. And the testosterone levels at those places are enough to drive anyone out let alone try to write there. And #2 is actually an old tale that gurus often tell about the prostitute and the yogi. The yogi practiced his meditations across the street from a prostitute and looked down with upon her while she across the street admired the yogi's spiritual practices and devotion. (To cut things short) when death came to both the yogi went to hell and the prostitute went to heaven. :-D TurquoiseB wrote: > I won't comment on Edg's rant, except to say that > 1) it's a re-run of his projected rant about me > being a "predator," and 2) I sat in that strip > club and managed to see one of those strippers > as a deva, a dakini, while Edg saw similar wommen > only as worthy of looking down upon with scorn, > from his oh-so-much-higher-than-they-were position > of moral righteousness.

I won't comment on Edg's rant, except to say that 1) it's a re-run of his projected rant about me being a "predator," and 2) I sat in that strip club and managed to see one of those strippers as a deva, a dakini, while Edg saw similar wommen only as worthy of looking down upon with scorn, from his oh-so-much-higher-than-they-were position of moral righteousness.

Wow, businessmen dragging you around clubs to see "nekkid wimmen." And then I do know of some "Governors of the Age of Enlightenment" who made regular trips to Thailand and it wasn't to explore Buddhist temples. Maybe it has something to do with living in a repressive society and trying to keep a "repressed" image of a "pseudo-priest." Now if you had been made a tantric, then who would have cared? At least there, ignorance of tantra plays in one's favor. ;-)

Next thing we'll hear from Turq is that all the strippers were full adults who had absolute clarity about why they'd chosen to be strippers -- say, a reachable goal of $1500 a day for starters. But, probably to Turq, each girl was some sort of "temp" and only doing it until she could finish her college degree or whatever, right? Right. A strip club is one of the meanest lowest places -- a whore house with music with thuggish arm-breakers hovering about and ready to fuck you up if you mess with their girls. Talk about a vipers' nest. I had the unique experience of being a full TM True Believer and taken around to dozens of strip bars. While writing a few of my infomercials "on location in Miami Beach," I had to endure my boss, famous in his own mind pitchman John Parkin, driving me somewhere, but then suddenly insisting that I had to go to a strip club with him "just for a second," and staying there for an hour or two while I sipped a soda and he did shots and paid for lap dances. Hilariously, imagine this: there's me in the club -- a person still doing four hours a day of program, a fucking governor of the age of fucking total unbelievable enlightenment, and yup there's girl after girl right there slapping her ass cheek to show me how firm it was. It was like God Himself had given Satan the right to pull Edg's (Job's?) chain just to see me squirm. And, yeah, I squirmed in shame that I had not the courage to spit in John's face and demand that he respect my religious integrity. So, I was a whore as much as the girls there, see? I remember being overwhelmed with the dark poignancy of that experience. Nowadays, the small salary I was getting would be laughably inadequate to get me to put up with that kind of employment abuse, but then, I needed the money as badly as those girls, and selling out my dogma to keep my bills paid seemed the rationale thing to do. And then there's my nightclub experiences in Asia. It was when I was doing business on the Pacific Rim and virtually all the businessmen insisted that I be dragged to bar after bar after bar while they did "mostly booze and girls" while talking business "here and there" with me. The girls were there to encourage all "their men" to drink a lot, order expensive plates of fruit, etc. The men knew that the woman was theirs for the night if they wanted such. My women couldn't get it. I'd be this vegetarian rich American priest and they just didn't have anything in their playbooks for what to do with me. Nor did my playbook have anything to offer the situation -- I had TM movement, wife and kids back home that were kept in the forefront of my mind, and I was there to do business and if that's the way it was done, then I would act like a Roman, and that was my sole technique for keeping myself off of any slippery slope. And God didn't stop there. He had a prostitute follow me to my room in Taipei, I had just closed my door, when, knock, and BAM there she was pretending she was looking for some guy, but, whoosh, she touched my cheek in a rapid move and said, "You look like a nice man." I'm surprised my cheeks didn't burst aflame from the incident -- I was still a priest in my own mind, ya see?

Scienceofabundance's spoof has obviously brought new life to the senses of humor of folks here, and I for one think that's a Good Thing.

Nabby and I Am will be overjoyed at this one, because it will prove in their minds that I am the low-vibe slime they believe me to be. :-) I consulted for a long time in Detroit, fly- ing out of Santa Fe on a Sunday night and flying back on Thursday night. And I discov- ered that the Detroit airport has one of the greatest business ideas I've ever seen. Right across the parking lot from the place where you have to turn in your rental cars is a strip club. This club has video monitors that update you on the status of all departing flights, and offers you a free ride to your terminal when it's time for your flight. So you have a choice -- do you hop on the dirty Hertz van and get driven to the airport and wait there in a terminal with hard plastic chairs and nothing to do, or do you pass the time before your flight at the strip club and then get driven to the terminal in a limo, just in time for your flight? Duh. I spent a lot of time at that strip club, every Thursday evening for some months. I'm not exactly a lap dance kinda guy, so I'd sit at the bar and write, with the perk of naked or near-naked women dancing in the background. Some of the stories I wrote there appear in http://www.ramalila.net/RoadTripMind/index.html, which is a book about studying with a Tantric Buddhist teacher. Seemed an appropriate place to write them. :-) Well, one of the stories I wrote while sitting there, one that did not appear in that book, was...uh...kinda spiritual in a different way. Tibetan Buddhism has a tradition of "holy possession," in which a dakini (deva) can "walk in" to the body of a mortal and take it over for a while. There is even a tradition there of this happening in temples, and of the possessed doing "holy dances" for the monks. So I wrote a story about such a dakini, thous- ands of years old at this point, who, instead of "waking up" in the body of a monk or priest- ess in a Tibetan temple, "wakes up" in the body of a stripper onstage at this club. I had so much fun writing it that I missed my flight and had to take the next one. :-) It was so much FUN trying to imagine such a being suddenly "waking up" inside the body of a stripper, looking around at the environment, hearing the music, seeing the men sitting around the stage waiting for her to dance, and just *getting it* and giving them the dance of their lives, blasting everyone in the room with major shakti and transforming their lives for- ever. All while stripping. ( What would it matter to a dakini whether someone saw the naked body of a body that wasn't really hers, after all? ) Great fun to write that story. For me, the essence of Tantra -- being able to perceive in a place that many would consider the *opposite* of "holy" something holy and inspiring. The Nabby's and the I Am's and the other prudes of the TM world can only see that world as "holy" or deserving of their appreciation if it fits into tiny little boxes that their teach- ers have said are *worthy* of being considered "holy."

No suffering. Total Joy. Thank you, Grate Swan. You certainly must be in the Inner Sanctum with all this information. However, there is some recent information that you may not be aware of. I guess there is no point in us waiting for the official announcement now - I will fill everyone in on the few details that Grate Swan has not mentioned. Three of the above programs have already been initiated in Maharishi Golden Towers of Invincibility. His Majesty Maharaja Adhi Raj Raja Raam has authorized three of the most enlightened leaders of Maharishi's Worldwide Movement to teach these beautiful techniques in three Golden Towers of Invincibility. For now, it would be good to keep their location private and so we do not speculate. The first technique was introduced to us by Turqouise B. and I just need to add some more information. However, the full name of the technique is From Fullness to Fullness: Raising the Ideal Gentleman from Earth to Heaven. Leaders of Maharishi's Worldwide Movement and 108 Divine Devi of the Global Country of World Peace have recently graduated as course leaders for the 3-month "Gentlemen's Earth to Heaven" program. At this time, only male governors are being accepted into the first course, which will be held following a period of deep rest and transcending by the initial group of 108 course leaders Divine Devi of the Global Country of World Peace. Interested male governors should immediately contact the Gentlemen's Earth to Heaven program by email at rajahage...@ghe.org. [Please note that this course is not being offered to members or recent members of the Maharishi Purusha Program at this time.] I have already mentioned a similar program for gay men, which will now be given the name "Ideal Gentleman-Gentleman Earth to Heaven" program. While details of this program have not yet been finalized, members of the Maharishi Purusha Progam are invited to apply to participate in training as leaders of this program. Interested members of the Maharishi Purusha Program are invited to email "Ideal Gentleman-Gentleman Earth to Heaven" program office at ap...@g2g.org The third program in this series can only be taken by long-term male governors who have reported experiences of Brahman Incarnate (BI) or who are curious about Braham Incarnate (BI-Curious) since puberty or since they began Maharishi's Transcendental Meditation technique - whichever came first. Members of Maharishi's Purusha Program who have had BI or BI-Curious feelings or experiences are strongly encouraged to apply. As this is the supreme enlightenment program offered by Maharishi's Worldwide Movement, it is a great joy to announce that His Excellen

Following are key points (that i really should not be sharing -- but its all so blissful!) 1) Catching up to the Ladies, all men and things manly shall be referred to as Gentlemen. 2) the Towers of Invincibility are monuments to manhood, and will soon be revealed as such. 3) The Towers shall cater to Gentlemen and their needs -- which of course are synonomous with the needs of Natural Law and which support the entire creation at its most fundamental and blissful level. 4) The Towers shall hence force be known as the Invincibility Towers Gentlemen's Clubs. 5) Some of the Divine Devis, particularly the 18 year olds, will serve as divine escorts to the Gentlemen as they enter the club -- and will cater to their total needs ((which of course are synonomous with the most fundamental and powerful needs and will of Natural Law). 6) The Devis, if asked, will perform divine dances for the Gentlemen to fulfill their inner most desires ((which of course are synonomous with the most fundamental and powerful needs and will of Natural Law) 7) As is the custom, Yogic motorboating will be given to Gentlemen who offer dancers the Holy Raam. 8) Further, in the inner sanctums of the temple Towers, dancers shall perform a sort of yogic waterboarding -- in which they induce unto themselves, with the passive assistance of the Gentlemen, a type of joyous gaging reflex. 9) The Rajas, Purusha, and all Gentleman Sidhas are very very excited about the new initiative. Their unending praises come spontaneously. 10) Through the Invincibility Towers Gentlemen's Clubs the true knowledge of life shall be expounded -- and all the world (Gentlemen of course) shall become totally attuned with Natural Law as expressed by the Divine dances and gyrations of the Divine Devi Dancer

Motorboat your way to > true enlightenment. D-cups for D-stressing. I don't have time to respond in detail now, but I have some details of this new course and will post them later. Also, I don't want FFL readers to think my posting about this new course is a spoof - it is for real. I will also briefly post some details here of another course that TurquoiseB may not be aware of. As usual, there are some "amazing" elements to this never-before offered course: There will be a special course for gay men - for obvious reasons, the regular Yogic Motorboating course may put unnecessary strain on the delicate physiology of the gay men who have contributed so much and so stylishly (and so silently)to Maharishi's Global Movement over the past 50 years. While full details are still being worked out, I can write that the gay men's course is tentatively titled "Yogic B-Boating (YBB). While the goal of this new course is the same as the Yogic Motorboarding course, the mechanics of practice will be somewhat different. This is all the information I have at the moment. However, on a personal note, I will add that from my experience with "regular" B-Boating in other organizations, I am very, very excited about the upcoming course. So, those are the main points, and now it is time for many of us to rest before diving deep within and enlivening the silence as we continue to enjoy Maharishi's Heaven on Earth in this generation.

Absolutely. Have you ever seen a painting of a statue of a Hindu goddess who didn't have ample breasts? I rest my case. I have heard, in fact, that the TMO is about to announce a new course, supposedly more effective than the TM-siddhis. The new technique will be called "Yogic Motorboating." Do not confuse this Vedic- based technique with the more mundane desc- ription of motorboating: "The act of pushing one's face in between two ample breasts and rocking one's head side to side very rapidly while making a vigorous, lip-vibrating 'brrr' sound." Not the same thing at all. Yogic Motorboating is to regular motorboating as the butt-bouncing of Yogic Flying is to...uh...is to... Sorry... I can't really think of any parallel to Yogic Flying in the mundane world...forget I even brought it up. Anyway, the first Yogic Motorboating courses will be offered soon at Maharishi Peace Palaces throughout the world. While the target audience for these courses is of course men -- who are, after all, the only ones who matter in the TM view of spirituality -- exceptions will be made for lesbians and Hillary Clinton supporters, as long as they agree to practice the technique in a different Motorboating Dome than the men. Catch the buzz today. Motorboat your way to true enlightenment. D-cups for D-stressing.

She was playing with her grandchildren. She looked fresh as a daisy. Then there's Cher and of course the GEICO commercial with Joan Rivers. "Am I smiling? I can't feel my face!". I wonder how confused grandkids get when grandma looks younger than their just out of college school teacher. What's wrong with natural, like George Burns, who was ever loyal to Gracie until she died? He said when he was 21 he liked 21 year old women. Well, he still did. One day, late in his 90s, George Burns was having a great time in the restaurant of his favorite hotel in NYC. A 70 year old man in tennis clothing strode across the floor to him and announced "I'm 70 years old and every day I play two sets of tennis." George chomped on his cigar for a moment, looked him up and down and told him "When I was 70 I had the clap." Now that's natural.

[FairfieldLife] Re: Ample Breasts
Hello Turq. Yes, it was created in the unbounded bliss of the "vacuum state" (early 80's retro) as infinite correlation reminded me of the "Ample Breasts" spoof several years regarding the characteristics of King Tony's desired consort. I have been away from the group for about three years and thought I would join again and see what is going on (much of the same:). Based on the responses to my "proclamation", my guess is that King Tony never never did get a hold of any ample breasts. He's getting on - he'll need to get to them soon.
