Re: [FairfieldLife] Re: Slide show of Brahmasthan of India
Maybe one of greatest movies of all time. Though I have to admit that the two Hunter Thompson inspired flicks also really cracked me up totally. Yeah, Fear and Loathing, and Where the Buffalo Roam. In order to understand the greatness of these flicks you have to see them as essentially counter culture and mind expanding. Personally I miss Doug Henning and I wish he were still here performing. Raja Bluto: See if you can guess what I am now. [puts cottage cheese ball in his mouth and hits his cheeks with his fists and spits it out] Raja Bluto: I'm a zit. Get it? Raja Boon: It's not gonna be an orgy! It's a toga party. Rajini Katy: Honestly, Boon, you're twenty-one years old. In six months you're going to graduate, and tomorrow night you're going to wrap yourself in a bed sheet and pour grain alcohol all over your head. It's cute, but I think I'll pass this time. Raja Boon: Want me to go alone? Rajini Katy: Baby, I don't want you to go at all. Raja Boon: It's a *fraternity* party, I'm in the fraternity. How can I miss it? Rajini Katy: I'll write you a note. I'll say you're too well to attend. Raja Bluto: TOGA! TOGA! Raja D-Day: War's over, man. Wormer dropped the big one. Raja Bluto: Over? Did you say over? Nothing is over until we decide it is! Was it over when the Germans bombed Pearl Harbor? Hell no! Raja Otter: Germans? Raja Boon: Forget it, he's rolling. Raja Bluto: And it ain't over now. 'Cause when the goin' gets tough... [thinks hard] Raja Bluto: the tough get goin'! Who's with me? Let's go! [runs out, alone; then returns] Raja Bluto: What the fuck happened to the Darshan House I used to know? Where's the spirit? Where's the guts, huh? This could be the greatest night of our lives, but you're gonna let it be the worst. Ooh, we're afraid to go with you Raja Bluto, we might get in trouble. Well just kiss my ass from now on! Not me! I'm not gonna take this. Wormer, he's a dead man! Marmalard, dead! Niedermeyer... Raja Otter: Dead! Bluto's right. Psychotic, but absolutely right. We gotta take these bastards. Now we could do it with conventional weapons that could take years and cost millions of lives. No, I think we have to go all out. I think that this situation absolutely requires a really futile and stupid gesture be done on somebody's part. Raja Bluto: We're just the guys to do it. Raja D-Day: Let's do it.

The Brahmasthan of India pandit plan is based on the idea that the West, seeking the benefit of woo-woo rays would buy Yagyas - hence Yagya-factory idea. The Yagya offers the greatest profit margin in the TMO product line. Did you notice how there is no upper limit to the number and types, and cost of yagyas? The sad reality is that as much as has been spent there, much more will be needed, if only to paint the buildings and pay for the air conditioning. What these buildings actually look like to me are motels. Cheap motels of poured concrete with one window and an Indian-styled facade. Similar to what the Muktananda people did but they used existing Catskill hotels. I spoke at length to his successor and he said to me that what ended up happening was spirituality became a business.

RE: [FairfieldLife] Re: Slide show of Brahmasthan of India
Comments from a friend not on FFL: Man, this guy from the slideshow sounds dull. I've visited this place last year after Maharishis cremation. It's a extremely dry desert like area in the middle of nowhere. There is this little landmark from the government indicating the middle of India and Maharishi claimed to have found the real middle of India about 500 meter from the official site. Probably because he was not allowed to put the official site under construction. This whole undertaking is so absurd. Training poor kids to become praying robots. Transferring huge amounts of money (that's easy to corrupt) and building stuff that will be definitely devastated in a few years. Who needs 16000 pundits? World peace absolutely not!

Sounds like the geographical cure - when you move, your problems will get there at about the same time- some other place can be as glorious as Fairfield. Actually, it sounds like a good idea. Once upon a time there was this generation in the US which eschewed wealth, was bright, eager, willing go to fight, demonstrate and campaign for a cause. I knew a member of the generation who's father was a noted neurosurgeon but I used to pick him up, in his $100 suit, hitchhiking along the side of the ride to go teach. Now a limited, a very limited number of people can be brought to do program together in FF for a stipend of $700 a month. But India is full of millions of people who come from a tradition of holding sacred meditation, austerities, learning and best of all, obedience to authority. What America had for a few brief years India's got in spades and will have for many years to come. India is an ideal place for the TMO to re-base itself.

But India is full of millions of people who come from a tradition of holding sacred meditation, austerities, learning and best of all, obedience to authority. What America had for a few brief years India's got in spades and will have for many years to come. India is an ideal place for the TMO to re-base itself. So why isn't is happening? They've had plenty of time. Sal

I spent some time with that thai buddhist abbot that was friendly with mmy for awhile back when i was a purusha and he said I was a much more serious monk (at that time) than most of his because they were just doing it to please their families or to avoid some other responsibility and most of them smoked and had secret meetings with girls when they could. Well. That explains why in VC they are transported to and from in buses, could only walk out of their area when they were going to dump Krshna into the lake. 24 X 7 TMO and private security keeping people out except under invitation when there's going to be public ceremony. That puts things in a whole new light.

The video drew me in with that picture of the cute sexy young guy, who I assume is the speaker, Hands off Alex. He belongs to Bevan. What do you suggest now Rick Archer? Of all the dire rumours you have presented on FFL, this must be amongst the lowest. Just kidding Nabby. Bevan has firmly established his reputation as a heterosexual.
