[FairfieldLife] message from Raja of NY Paul Potter
Subject: Maharishi requesting our help quickly! please read Dear Governors, Sidhas and Meditators, In keeping with his goals of reducing poverty on earth and getting all of humankind living and working in buildings aligned with Nature's functioning, Maharishi has developed a plan to use vast hectares of land in poor nations to grow Vedic organic food and use the profits to re-build for the poor in the nation as well as to underwrite the building of universities and hospitals, etc. Maharishi has asked us to immediately contact stock and bond underwriting firms and investors in the global financial markets about our plan for Global Reconstruction for World Peace through Maharishi Vedic Organic Agriculture. This is a very practical and viable plan due to the enormous growth of organic agriculture worldwide and the relationships we have developed over the years with governments of poor countries that have large tracts of unused agricultural land for development. We are contacting these investment firms over these coming few days to assist with our $600 billion offering and get their response. Therefore, if you have any contacts at any such firms please let me know immediately. If they are close personal contacts and you would like to remain involved when they are contacted, please let me know so we can work that out. While the fundraising is large, investors with vision will understand what we are doing and want to get involved -- from the investment viewpoint as well as for the goal of poverty removal and world peace.

[FairfieldLife] Re: news from Global country (Money vs. Enlightenment)
...what is *most* offensive is the basic theory behind what Maharishi is proposing, which is that the relative world has the ability to prevent inner peace and enlight- enment, and that the only real way to realize these goals is to reshape the relative world. It's as far from the eternal message of enlightenment as it is possible to get. i think in the early years maharishi wanted to first establish what, for us, was new knowledge re the eternal message of enlightenment and Absolute Being. For the sake of us inexperienced westerners, he made the story black-and-white to make it easier to take in. But now he is thinking that since we have been meditating all these years, getting quite established in That. so to speed things along he can introduce more complex additional vedic approaches *in the relative* that support and hasten the growth of Absolute, so, iow i think you are getting yourself offended by a polarity that is not really there in truth, but was good for introductory lessons.

[FairfieldLife] More Indian press on the south-facing factor
Hindustan Times author: S. Rajagopalan Washington, August 21, 2005 http://www.hindustantimes.com/news/181_1468563,00050001.htm South is bad vaastu for both Bush, Blair Just close the White House's south entrance and see the difference. That is the advice for US President George W. Bush from John Hagelin, quantum physicist from Harvard and a Vedic architecture buff. For making wiser and more intelligent decisions, Bush should start using the north entrance, says Hagelin. He has a similar prescription for Bush's comrade-in-arms, Tony Blair: Shut down the south entrance to 10 Downing Street. This could mean the end of their troubles in Iraq. Nothing seems to be working yet. Vaastu may well bring the two leaders some respite. Vedic architecture, incorporating Vaastu principles, is just about catching on in the US a $ 72-million tower, touted as the world's largest Vedic green office building, is now coming up on Washington's outskirts. Much of the Vaastu propagation is being carried out by Maharishi Mahesh Yogi's band of followers like Hagelin, who heads an organisation called the US Peace Government. Nothing good will ever come from the government as long as the leaders are living and working in the disorderly influence of improperly designed and oriented buildings. The leaders should flee these old buildings as they were hit by an earthquake, says Hagelin. His counsel is not confined to Bush and Blair. At a press conference here, Hagelin also wanted the Indian government to abandon the Parliament buildings because of their skewed entrances. Has this come up before? Closing the south-facing entrances is only a stop-gap measure until properly designed and oriented offices and residences can be built for Mr Bush, Mr Blair and all government leaders. The positive effects of a proper eastern orientation on the brain and behaviour are now being documented by modern science, says Hagelin. He speaks of recent EEG research that points to greater efficiency of neuronal functioning when the head is oriented towards the east, compared to the south. Says Jonathan Lipman, the chief Vedic architect from the Maharishi stable: Beyond beauty and engineering, architecture should be able to create influences. © HT Media Ltd. 2005. India News -- Yahoo!

[FairfieldLife] assertion: Coherence rising in world consciousness
Coherence rising in world consciousness: Summary of last week's positive trends by US Peace Government Media Team Global Country of World Peace 26 August 2005 Just over four months ago, Maharishi launched the first stage of his global peace programme to purify world consciousness and prepare the way for Heaven on EarthSat Yuga. Maharishi announced that he had established growing numbers of Vedic Pandits in India, whose daily performance of Yogic Flying and Yagya would create coherence in the collective consciousness of India. With the rise of coherence, Maharishi said, there would be a corresponding rise of positivity and harmony within India, and, increasingly, throughout the region and the world. It is clear that Maharishi's programme has produced its intended peaceful effect, as there is an unmistakable trend towards reduced conflict and increasing friendliness and harmony throughout the worldin particular, in the former major hotspotsor nuclear flashpointsaround the globe. This week, in Asia, we continue to see the strongest influence of coherence created by the Vedic Pandits in India. India and Pakistan are continuing in their steady march towards peace, as are China and Taiwan. And what would have been unimaginable even a few months agothe crisis over North Korea's repeated threats to test and use nuclear weapons is abating as coherence rises in the Korean peninsula, and friendliness replaces 50 years of bitter rivalry. Reuters: Koreas; Warming ties between old foes Newsweek: Extraordinary relationship between the two Koreas 'This is an extraordinary moment in the relationship between the two Koreas. This week, for the first time since 1945, North and South Koreans jointly commemorated their liberation from Japanese colonizers at the end of World War II in Seoul. The North Korean delegation visited the South Korean Parliament, another first. The two countries also staged a joint cultural event where 50,000 spectators chanted, ''Unified Korea, Unified Korea''. The lovefest doesn't stop there. Trade is reaching new heights. And cooperation across the demilitarized zone is proceeding at dizzying speed.' Reuters: South, North Korea reach agreement in farm talks A publication from South Korea called Joongang Ilbo published an article with the headline: South Korea's opinion of North improves dramatically. The New York Times: N. Korea opening door to tourists The biggest stumbling block to a peaceful resolution to the North Korean nuclear standoff has been the North's stubborn determination to pursue the development of nuclear weapons against the wishes and pleas of the entire world community. Now, suddenly and unexpectedly, the North appears to be sending a message of accomodation: The Washington Post: N. Korea may be willing to drop nuke plan 'North Korea apparently is willing to abandon its nuclear weapons programs, with a breakthrough possible in the current round of international talks, South Korea's foreign minister said this week.' And finally, this headline in The Washington Post, utterly inconceivable just a few months ago, reads: Nations make good progress in N. Korea talks 'The drive for a six-nation agreement to end North Korea's nuclear weapons program is quite unexpectedly picking up speed.' The rise of coherence in the collective consciousness of the Asian region has brought an end to more than 30 years of bloody fighting between the Indonesian government and Aceh rebels. This week, for the first time, Aceh celebrated Indonesia's Independence Day. Islam Online covered the story with an article entitled: Aceh Celebrates Indonesia's Independence Day 'Two days after signing the peace agreement with the Indonesian government, Acehnese marked Indonesia's Independence Day with the Indonesian government with gala festivities and cultural celebrations. Indonesian flags were hoisted in front of Acehnese homes, marking the 60th anniversary of Indonesia's independence from former colonial power The Netherlands.' Malaysian National News Agency reported: Aceh peace deal has positive impact on Malaysia 'The signing of the Aceh peace accord in Helsinki on Monday not only puts an end to almost 30 years of bloodshed in the Indonesian special province but also has significant impacts on Malaysia, its closest neighbour. The cessation of the arms struggle by the separatist group, Free Aceh Movement or GAM, whose members are now about to rejoin the civil society, hopefully will bring lasting peace to Aceh and, more importantly, open up a whole new horizon in Malaysia-Indonesia bilateral relations.' The light of coherence radiating from India is continuing to create signs of dawning peace in the Middle East, where the evacuation of Israel from the Gaza, after 38 years of occupation, has proceeded with totally unexpected speed and peace. BBC: Positive signs in Gaza'The evacuation of

[FairfieldLife] Re: The Kaplan Money
Einer flipped out, Rick? I could see that. there was always this schizotypal quality about him. He flipped out big time at the Manor. Straight jacket stuff. Too bad. How is he today? Many people that have the genetic propensity for psychosis never fully recover. They're always a little off in some way. I would say he's a little off (pot calling the kettle black?) but he's a sincere, ardent seeker. He just got married to someone he just met on the recert course and is headed to San Antonio to do the Peace Palace in the mall thing. Sounds like a nice big bundle of karma to me. I wish him the best. i happened to be staying at the Rukmapura, the day Einer got married... found it ironic that his wedding procession into the Bramasthan was done in the Ram Raj/Tony Nader style, led by a kilt-wearing bag-pipper. what is so funny is, the bag piper was Irish musical ace Tim Britton, who is *not allowed* to perform on campus because of seeing Amma... yet he is the featured attraction at a wedding in Vedic City! sort of highlights the difference between how things are in Bevan's turf, as compared to Raja Bob Wynn's turf.

Destination ImagiNation Global Finals took place May 25-28 at the University of Tennessee in Knoxville. During the three days of competition 900 teams (8,000 kids) compete in 5 different challenges. Each challenge has three divisions, elementary, middle and secondary/university. There are approximately 12,600 (80,000 kids) teams that compete in DI worldwide. Only 10 % go on to Global Finals. There are 12 countries that participate: Brazil, Canada, China, Colombia, Guatemala, Korea, Mexico, Singapore, South Africa, United Kingdom, Venezuela and the United States. Most of the teams are from the US. Maharishi School of the Age of Enlightenment Tops the World in Creativity Competition Winning More First-Place and Second-Place Awards Than Any Other School in the World! Not only did Maharishi School students win more first- and second- place awards than any other school in the world Destination ImagiNation competition held last weekend in Knoxville, they also won more first- and second-place awards than the entire state of California and every other state, with the exception of Texas. Their total of five first- and second-place awards compares to a total of four won by the 27 schools entered from California. Schools from Texas won a total of seven, and Wisconsin had three. All other states and countries had fewer first- and second-place awards. There were 860 teams competing from nearly as many schools all of them at the global competition by virtue of having been state or country champs. There were 4060 teams in each category of competition. Unprecedented Success This level of success is just unprecedented, said coach Mark Headlee. No other school that I know of has ever done anything like this. Speculating on the reasons for their success, Mr. Headlee noted that being a private school or being highly intelligent students doesn't explain it, because the same is true of many of the other participating schools. In fact, schools often reserve this program for their top students in the talented-and-gifted program, in contrast to Maharishi School of the Age of Enlightenment®, where any student can participate. He believes their success is the direct result of Consciousness- BasedSM education. Students are able to integrate this knowledge with their creative expression. The Transcendental Meditation technique is the only variable by which you can explain this phenomenon. Destination ImagiNation Destination ImagiNation is an international creative-problem-solving program that develops cooperative teamwork and critical thinking, as well as building technical and performance skills. The participants come up with ingenious and often wildly entertaining solutions to complex challenges. There are five separate problem challenges for each of three levels of education: elementary, middle, and secondary. Our Maharishi School winning teams were: Middle level Live!

I'm serious. kirk, you must have missed the original article (below) which supports exactly what you are saying, that south-facing entrance = bad, AND north-facing bed = bad A second study looked at whether the orientation of one's bed can affect health and well-being. University researchers collaborated with a physician in private practice in Ottumwa to give a questionnaire to 167 patients in order to assess each person's relative health and quality of life to see how that correlated with direction of sleep and with the direction of the home's entrance. The results showed that individuals sleeping with their heads pointing north had significantly *lower scores* on the Mental Health Inventory compared to patients who slept in other directions. In addition, patients whose homes had south entrances had significantly poorer overall scores on the standardized Mental Health Inventory than patients with north, northeast, or east entrances.

[FairfieldLife] Impending Crisis - a Vedic Astrology perspective
Maharishi is not alone in forseeing trouble in the coming summer months. Sam Geppi is a Vedic Astrologer in San Francisco (not in the TM movement) whose daily forcast ring very true for me quite often... Therefore, i post his prognosis for this recent transit of Mars into Leo: -- MARS ATTACKS!! Have you noticed a certain irritability lately, since around the end of last week??. Well this is because Mars has awakened. Mars *had been* very powerful in his own sign for seven months. That ended in March, and since then he has been in signs where he's not quite as assertive as he would like to be. First in Taurus, where he becomes quite earthy and sensual; next in Gemini where his energy becomes unfocused and leads to mental aggravation and difficult communication; and most recently in the sign of Cancer where he is considered debilitated. Mars is a planet that gives strength. The strength of Mars is not in his ability to fight but in his ability to make peace -- that's true strength, having the courage to consider other options -- which includes reflection (the Moon) and peacemaking (Venus). Wherever Mars goes he tries to strengthen that area of life through disciplined action. Action is related to the fire element and thus Mars does well in fire signs. Fire is the element of our instinctive animal nature which senses the best course of action to take at any time. Mars has a act first, think later mentality. Thus Mars is very powerful when we have a problem to fix and no time to waste fixing it. When he is powerful, he will get to work, logically determine what the best course of action is and then do it. However when Mars is involved in our relationships for example, he'll try to fix it by logically figuring out what's wrong and then doing something about it. When Mars is involved in a conversation, he will logically figure out what's wrong and then do something about it. This is his nature yet we can see very clearly Mars involved in relationships, or in communication, can create problems. This is why he creates arguments. He's a planet of strength and he's trying to strengthen what he sees as a weakness. Yet there can be a destructive quality here. Relationships for example are not meant to be strengthened through logic and action. The best way to strengthen a relationship is through compromise, love and acceptance, things related to the Moon and Venus. Not trying to change or fix but accept. Mars's job is not to accept but to change and fix that which needs to be changed and fixed. In and of itself it's beautiful, but most of the time Mars should not be very present in our interactions. Just like in a conversation -- who wants to talk to someone who is trying to fix them and fix the conversation toward what is right in their mind ... not me!! Mercury is the best one to do the talking. He listens to everyone, he is curious, he is funny, he's playful, he's not married to a way of how things should or shouldn't be -- what is logically correct or what is incorrect. That's Mars is job, Mercury's job is to help decide what's right or wrong, but Mercury himself sees value in all ideas as being equal to someone. *Mars in Leo* will try to strengthen our sense of identity, our truthful identity to action in discipline. Mars is in a powerful position for the next two months or so. This is a good time to get back into your Yoga routine, Martial arts or any sort of powerful discipline aligned with action. We have all been feeling a little weak and powerless to free ourselves from a certain level of luxury or laziness for the last several months as Mars went through Gemini and then Cancer. Especially Cancer because he was also joined Saturn, we may have fallen into some very lazy routines, perhaps went back into some situations out of weakness, revisiting them rather than courageously moving forward, etc. This tendency may have been compounded more recently by Mercury retrograde in Cancer also. The sign of Cancer has been holding at least two malefic planets for months now. Cancer is the sign of vulnerability, compromise and nourishment. Cancer is not a sign where we act powerfully and with courage, that's why Mars is debilitated there. As we've all been lacking in some courage recently and this powerful Mars is ready to strengthen us. Yet we must be very careful because we may have accumulated a lot of frustration and have some frustrating circumstances in our life. Be careful with Mars declaring war on an external enemy. The true source of strength is having the courage to face our self and our own weaknesses. We are the source of everything, the good and bad. As soon as we take responsibility for this, liberation is not far behind. As long as we blame others for perceived weaknesses we're in a deep crisis. Unfortunately we can also see this powerful Mars in the recent
[FairfieldLife] Was John Lennon Wrong About Yoko Ono?
Vedic Astrology MARRIAGE TEST / COMPATIBILITY REPORT source: http://planets9.com/yoko.htm John Lennon + Yoko Auspicious! When John Lennon met Yoko Ono in 1966, he was already a superstar with the Beatles and she had achieved moderate success as an avant-garde conceptual artist. The media reported that they fell madly in love. Truer to the point is that he was completely bowled over by her - as revealed in the Marriage Compatibility Test below. The "Working-Class Hero" dumped his wife Cynthia and surrendered to a woman seven years older than him, and twice-divorced! The age gap reversal is the first point of incompatibility. The Vedic texts condemn marriage between an older woman and a younger man because it brings on destructive consequences. Anybody tempted to make light of this prohibition should examine John's life, before and after, the way it ended, and how the relationship contributed to the break-up of the Beatles as a group. John was the idol of millions of hopeful fans all over the world. But he was no longer the man he used to be after he married Yoko in 1969. It was a lopsided match. She was the much stronger person and completely overwhelmed him. The Vedic texts state that for marital felicity, the male must be equal to or superior to the female. In this relationship, it is the other way round - as revealed by the Test. Witness the lopsided configuration in subtests 2 and 11 below - Manusha (human) versus Rakshasa (demoniac), and Shudra (working class) versus Brahmana (intellectual). (The behaviourial patterns corresponding to these terms are explained in detail in our Lunar Profile sample report) The full range of John's talents and abilities was submerged in this relationship where he adored and looked up to her for direction, even in intellectual areas. He relinquished the running of his music business empire to her. The prolific songwriter even devoted time to grooming her to be a partner in his act. His devotion bore fruit in the Plastic Ono Band - which is widely acclaimed as John's best post-Beatle album. Incidentally, in one of the tracks he wrote for this album, John aspires to be the "Working Class Hero" - hailing to his working class background and emphasising the output of subtest 11 on Varna (occupational inclination). About the only area where this couple were on equal footing was in the bed (recall the infamous bed-in stunts they staged). Witness the pass in subtest 5 below on Yoni kuta or sexual compatibility, although even here Yoko happens to be the male of the corresponding animal species! Yoko's control and influence over John was near-absolute, and she probably realised the depressing effects of it as well. An infamous chapter of their relationship has her putting him out on a leash to have an affair with their assistant May Pang. This 18-month tryst was reportedly engineered by Yoko as a trial separation, and after she felt that he had had enough, she just told him it was time to come back to her. John, as usual, obliged. May Pang wrote about it in her book "The Lost Weekend", where she described a noticeable change in John's demeanour during this period. He was reported to be relaxed, loveable and personable; collaborating and socialising with friends more than he'd done previously. It was during this period that he saw more of Julian, his son from his first marriage with Cynthia, than he'd done for a long time. Quite different, in other words, to the person he was while with Yoko. If the first-hand accounts are true, then the subjugation of John is probably worse than what's printed in this Marriage Report. The picture on the right, where he snuggles up in a foetal position against Yoko, is an apt statement on the relationship. Yoko wielded incredible influence, nay, authority, over John. What's incredulous is that he chose to endure a subservient role in the relationship even though there's practically no long-term friendship between them. Witness the back-to-back failures in Rasi and Graha Maitram (subtests 6 and 7 below) - which indicate only misery, sorrow and enmity. In short, the marriage was hell - at least for John, although he did not do anything drastic to change the status quo, preferring instead to wax philosophical. This is the man who would rather imagine there's no hell or heaven, as he sang in another of his more famous songs. Imagine there's no heaven, it's easy if you try No hell below us, above us only sky This unhappy relationship wouldn't have lasted as long as it did, but for John's capacity to endure the suffering and relinquish ground inch-by-inch until his tragic death on December 8, 1980 at the hands of an assasin. __._,_.___ To subscribe, send a message to: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Or go to: http://groups.yahoo.com/group/FairfieldLife/ and click 'Join This Group!'

He relinquished the running of his music business empire to her. The prolific songwriter even devoted time to grooming her to be a partner in his act. His devotion bore fruit in the Plastic Ono Band - which is widely acclaimed as John's best post-Beatle album. Incidentally, in one of the tracks he wrote for this album, John aspires to be the "Working Class Hero" - hailing to his working class background and emphasising the output of subtest 11 on Varna (occupational inclination). About the only area where this couple were on equal footing was in the bed (recall the infamous bed-in stunts they staged). Witness the pass in subtest 5 below on Yoni kuta or sexual compatibility, although even here Yoko happens to be the male of the corresponding animal species! Yoko's control and influence over John was near-absolute, and she probably realised the depressing effects of it as well. An infamous chapter of their relationship has her putting him out on a leash to have an affair with their assistant May Pang. This 18-month tryst was reportedly engineered by Yoko as a trial separation, and after she felt that he had had enough, she just told him it was time to come back to her. John, as usual, obliged. May Pang wrote about it in her book "The Lost Weekend", where she described a noticeable change in John's demeanour during this period. He was reported to be relaxed, loveable and personable; collaborating and socialising with friends more than he'd done previously. It was during this period that he saw more of Julian, his son from his first marriage with Cynthia, than he'd done for a long time. Quite different, in other words, to the person he was while with Yoko. If the first-hand accounts are true, then the subjugation of John is probably worse than what's printed in this Marriage Report. The picture on the right, where he snuggles up in a foetal position against Yoko, is an apt statement on the relationship. Yoko wielded incredible influence, nay, authority, over John. What's incredulous is that he chose to endure a subservient role in the relationship even though there's practically no long-term friendship between them. Witness the back-to-back failures in Rasi and Graha Maitram (subtests 6 and 7 below) - which indicate only misery, sorrow and enmity. In short, the marriage was hell - at least for John, although he did not do anything drastic to change the status quo, preferring instead to wax philosophical. This is the man who would rather imagine there's no hell or heaven, as he sang in another of his more famous songs. Imagine there's no heaven, it's easy if you try No hell below us, above us only sky This unhappy relationship wouldn't have lasted as long as it did, but for John's capacity to endure the suffering and relinquish ground inch-by-inch until his tragic death on December 8, 1980 at the hands of an assasin.

[FairfieldLife] Numbers Near 2000!
THE PATH OF BLISS When one would like to Be that bliss -- when one would like to continue in that experience forever -- then we know ours is the path of bliss. We know the path is not a task -- it is an automatic draw into the ocean of bliss. These are the experiences of bliss from the very fortunate people who are creating Heaven on Earth. Well done. Continue. --Maharishi's commentary on the experiences of the course, which were broadcast live during today's global press conference APPLICATIONS NEAR 2000! (July 26) As of 12:00 noon (CDT) today, applications to the Invincible America Course topped 1950, surpassing the Super Radiance requirement of 1730 for the nation. And more and more of these course participants are arriving: yesterday afternoon, there were over 1100 Sidhas flying together in Fairfield and in Washington . Everyone who has registered for the course should come quickly to join the group and fly together every day. And all those who have not yet applied please do so now! Come as soon as you can -- and stay as long as you can! DAY 2 PRESS REPORT Stock Market Continues to Climb During Second Day of Invincible America Course Watch What Happens Tomorrow Wall Street continued its unexpected climb yesterday, gaining 53 points following Monday's dramatic spike, while the price of gold and crude oil dropped markedly during the second day of the Invincible America Course now being held in Washington , D.C. , and Iowa . Nearly 1200 coherence-creating experts have gathered to practice Yogic Flying together in large groups to create coherent collective consciousness--the basis of prosperity, harmony, and invincibility for the nation. Rising stock markets and declining gold and oil prices are all strong indicators of rising optimism and confidence in the country's economic future. Experts predicted the upheaval in the Middle East would depress Wall Street and send gold and oil skyrocketing. To the surprise of most economists, the opposite occurred. This unshakeable national psychology is due to the stabilizing influence of the Yogic Flyers on the collective consciousness of the nation, said Dr. John Hagelin, Director of the Institute of Science , Technology and Public Policy at Maharishi University of Management, who is leading the Invincible America Course. Dr. Hagelin urged to press to monitor the good news daily: Watch what happens tomorrow. REMEMBER: MONEY IS NOT AN OBSTACLE! Due to the great generosity of several peace-loving donors, any Yogic Flyer who wishes to attend the Invincible America Course in Washington , D.C. , may do so for as long as he or she wants! Simply apply for the Course at www.InvincibleAmerica.org , and specify your financial needs. We urge everyone to take advantage of this incredible opportunity.

[FairfieldLife] OUR LIFELONG DREAM...
July 27: INVINCIBILITY UPDATE “America will never get better until we make it better” AN OPEN LETTER TO ALL SIDHAS It’s been our lifelong dream to live in a peaceful nation and a peaceful world. For too long, we have looked to our government to provide the leadership to create that bright new world—often growing frustrated when the government did not deliver on our expectations. But, as Maharishi has repeatedly reminded us, the government is not free. The government can only do exactly what it is doing, because it is governed by the collective consciousness of the nation. Creating peace is our expertise. With the exquisite guidance of Maharishi and the blessings of the Vedic tradition, we have been given the supreme technique to create harmonious collective consciousness. America will never change, the Middle East will never change, nothing will ever change—nothing will ever get better—until we make it better, until we create integrated national consciousness. There has never been a better opportunity—or a more crucial moment—to do just that. There are more than 2100 people who have applied for the course. They invite you to join them in their flying halls—to make it happen now. If your finances are tight, you can come to Washington and stay at a fine hotel with all your expenses for food and housing paid for by a generous, peace-loving donor. And scholarships are available for Fairfield, as well. We need you. Yes, the numbers are good enough now to create a wave of good feeling, and to influence the stock markets -- but not yet enough to put a stop to the violence and slaughter in the Middle East, which is a powder keg that threatens to spiral out of control. I know many of you have business and family commitments this summer. But many who are now at the course had similar commitments. They resolved to come despite everything—and Nature supported their resolve. America needs you in Washington and in Fairfield/Maharishi Vedic City. Please do everything you can to come as soon as possible—and stay for as long as you can. Jai Guru Dev John MAHARISHI: SEE WHAT HAPPENS TOMORROW “It is very fortunate that you are in the midst of 1,000 Yogic Flyers—and that more and more are coming. But even 1,000 people are good enough to show indications of betterment in the national economy. Better national economy means more harmony, more confidence, less difficulties, more evenness. It is a very good thing. Let us see what comes tomorrow.”—Maharishi, speaking to the course COURSE PARTICIPANT: I AM A NEW SIDHA “I was initiated into the TM-Sidhi program last Winter. I am having so much fun on this course—I really enjoy the new hour-long flying time. I am experiencing crystal clear transcending and have the feeling of ‘floating’ on the finest level when I practice the Sutras. Yogic Flying is becoming more and more effortless—especially with the big group numbers. I feel more established in the Self—more established in pure consciousness. I would love to see this hour-long program remain an option for all students even when school resumes next month.”—Course participant who is also a student at Maharishi University of Management I FELT LIKE I WAS FLYING IN THE LIGHT OF GOD “I felt like I was flying in the light of God. And then after about 40 minutes I had a big explosion of unbelievable happiness and joy—it just kept exploding as I kept flying and laughing with everyone around me. I flew for over an hour and it was fantastic and fun and blissful. After I left the Dome, even the air felt alive and pulsating. I didn't have anything to say to anyone. It was just perfect in the moment—incredibly peaceful, clear and bright! I am sure that without a doubt I would not be having such great experiences without all the blissful flyers around me!”—Course participant in Maharishi Vedic City APPLICATIONS SURPASS 2000! As of 12:00 noon (CDT) today, applications to the Invincible America Course reached 2120, easily surpassing the Super Radiance requirement of 1730 for the nation.

[FairfieldLife] REPORTS GO AROUND THE WORLD
July 28: INVINCIBILITY UPDATE MAHARISHI ON THE NATURE OF BLISS "There are two values of Bliss: Bliss and Blissful: Being is Bliss; Knowing Being makes Being Blissful -- it makes it more concrete. This is the field of Silence that speaks for its own value -- this is the field you are awakening during your group flying practice." —Maharishi, speaking to a course participant on Being Positive News Coverage Goes Around the World Glowing news coverage of the initial success of the Invincible America Course has gone around the world, including a wonderful story that appeared yesterday in newspapers throughout New Zealand (see below). And even though our Course started just five days ago, there are growing signs of appreciation by the world press for Maharishi’s initiatives to create peace and invincibility for every nation—including Switzerland, where a campaign is now under way to establish a group of 300 Yogic Flyers (see below). New York Banking Commission Approves Establishment of the Global Financial Capital More outstanding news: The State of New York Banking Commission approved yesterday the establishment of the "Global Financial Capital of New York." Maharishi conceived and inaugurated the Global Financial Center two months ago to "eliminate poverty and promote peace and prosperity throughout the world." It will succeed where existing financial institutions have failed, by harnessing the science of Vastu Vidya-- Vedic Architecture in harmony with Natural Law to bring full support of Natural Law and good economic fortune for the nation and the world. "The Global Financial Capital of New York will crown America with invincibility," said Dr. Paul Potter, the Raja of New York. "The doors will open within a few weeks at our beautiful, east-facing, landmark 70 Broad Street building in New York City." We congratulate Raja Paul on this marvelous achievement -- and all those who are flying together in Washington and Maharishi Vedic City who have created this wave of coherence for America. We look forward to escalating good news from America as our Course numbers continue to rise. Watch what happens tomorrow! Jai Guru Dev John Hagelin NEW ZEALAND NEWS SERVICE "Flyers Claim Early Success" (July 27, 2006) More than 1200 peace-creating yogic flying experts from throughout North America have assembled in Washington, D.C., and in Fairfield, Iowa, to create a positive upsurge in national consciousness and radiate harmony throughout the world. Organisers claim that after just two days the first signs of the success of the assemblies helped the stock market record one of its largest one-day gains of the year, resulting in headlines such as Wall Street Euphoria and Blissful Shock -- with the only blue chip stock in negative territory being Phillip Morris cigarette company. Maharishi University’s Science, Technology and Public Policy director Dr John Hagelin said such positive news was predicted in advance, and although the required number of peace-creating experts for the United States was 1730, the flyers were assembling 3500 as a safety factor. "As the number of Yogic Flyers increases towards 3500, the world press will have more and more good news to report from America," Dr. Hagelin said. "The government will enjoy greater success. Peace and prosperity will reign, and violence and conflict will subside as America rises to become a lighthouse of coherence and invincibility for the world." BOTE (Switzerland) "Yogic Flyers as Knights in Shining Armour" The Swiss Peace Government wants to make Switzerland invincible and celebrate the dawn of a new fortune for the whole world. (This article appeared in several newspapers throughout Switzerland, including on the front page of the newspaper Bote. Here are excerpts.) (July 28, 2008) The program for an invincible nation is the first phase of the global peace program of Maharishi Mahesh Yogi -- the Indian who is the founder of Transcendental Meditation. In October 2000 he created the Global Country of World Peace as a "country without borders for all peace loving citizens of the world." Its goal: It wants to raise each country to invincibility and create lasting world peace. According to Felix Kagi, the Raja of Switzerland, the Swiss initiative wants to mobilize in the country 300 experts who have already been trained as Yogic Flyers. They are to create an integrated collective consciousness -- the basis for an invincible nation. In addition, all over Switzerland Invincibility Schools will be created, in which the students will practise Yogic Flying together. "The Peace Government of Switzerland takes full responsibility to make Switzerland invincible," Felix Kagi says. The existing government is not able to free the country from problems. The Swiss Federal Council can only do exactly what it has been doing, because it is governed by the collective consciousness of the nation. "If the collective consciousness is incoherent, the government will be
[FairfieldLife] todays course update: Record Gains
Wall Street Soars! Posts Record Gains During First Week of Invincibility Course Group of 1200 Yogic Flyers in Washington , D.C. , and Iowa Creating a Coherent, Invincible Nation "We Are Transforming America Before the Eyes of the World, Watch What Happens Tomorrow" HEADLINES OF THE WEEK July 24 - 30, 2006 Good News Generated by the Invincible America Course CNBC: "Wall Street Euphoria" CNBC: "Blissful Shock" MSNBC: "Market Sizzles: Wall Street chalks up best weekly gain since 2005" Briefing.com: "Stocks surge across the board" The Washington Post: "Oil prices fall as US takes step to end Mid-east war" (July 29, 2006) The good news is now in from the first week of the Invincible America Course. The stock market soared this week, posting its highest weekly gain in 14 months, and the price of oil dropped sharply as the U.S. mobilized international support for a Mideast cease fire. Credit for this sudden and unexpected upsurge of positive news goes to the 1200 peace-creating experts assembled in Washington, D.C., and Maharishi Vedic City, Iowa, who have been practicing Yogic Flying together in groups for the past week to create coherent national consciousness -- the basis for a more positive, invincible America, according to world-renowned quantum physicist Dr. John Hagelin, who is leading the Invincible America Course. Rising stock markets and declining oil prices are strong indicators of growing optimism and confidence in the country's economic future. Experts predicted that the upheaval in the Middle East would depress Wall Street and send oil prices skyrocketing. To the surprise of most economists, the opposite occurred. "This unshakeable national psychology is due to the stabilizing influence of the Yogic Flyers on the collective consciousness of the nation," Dr. Hagelin said. Dr. Hagelin said the good news was predicted publicly in advance based on 30 years of published scientific research on the collective effects of the Transcendental Meditation program and its more advanced Yogic Flying technique. "The research proves that as little as the square root of one percent of the population of a country practicing Yogic Flying together in a group is sufficient to reduce negative trends and strengthen positive social and economic tendencies throughout the entire population," said Dr. Hagelin, who serves as the Director of the Institute of Science, Technology and Public Policy at Maharishi University of Management in Fairfield, Iowa. Dr. Hagelin explained that the number of Yogic Flyers required to produce this coherent effect for the United States is 1730. However, he said, the initial group of 1200 experts is more than enough to create a calming, stabilizing effect in national consciousness. "As the number of Yogic Flyers rises to 2000 in the coming days, the world press will be reporting better and better economic and social news. We are transforming the nation before the eyes of the world. I urge the press to watch what happens tomorrow," Dr. Hagelin said. __._,_.___ To subscribe, send a message to: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Or go to: http://groups.yahoo.com/group/FairfieldLife/ and click 'Join This Group!'

July 30: INVINCIBILITY UPDATE "OPEN THE EYES AND COMMAND THE TREASURY" "Close the eyes to stir the Constitution of the Universe -- engage the almighty power of Total Natural Law, the Treasury of God -- then open the eyes and . . . cash in! This is your next phase of training: to begin to command the Cosmic Treasury -- to cash in." --Maharishi, speaking on what will happen as people stay on the Invincible America Course, and when Marble Colonies are built in Maharishi Vedic City, creating a center of business and untold wealth for Governors and Sidhas STOCK MARKET SOARS! Posts Record Gains During First Week of Invincibility Course The good news is now in from the first week of our course. The stock market soared this week, posting its highest weekly gain in 14 months! And the price of oil dropped sharply as the U.S. -- in an about face—began working towards a Mideast ceasefire. Here are a few headlines: CNBC: "Wall Street Euphoria" CNBC: "Blissful Shock" MSNBC: "Market Sizzles: Wall Street chalks up best weekly gain since 2005" The Washington Post: "Oil prices fall as US takes step to end Mideast war" I congratulate everyone who has come to the course to create this extraordinary upsurge of positive news. Our numbers have been enough to create a wave of good feeling, national confidence, and euphoria in the markets -- but not yet enough to stop the violence in the Middle East and create national invincibility. I know many of you have business and family commitments this summer. But many who are now at the course had similar commitments. They resolved to come despite everything -- and Nature supported their resolve. America needs you in Washington and in Fairfield/Maharishi Vedic City. Please do everything you can to come as soon as possible -- and stay for as long as you can.] Jai Guru Dev John Hagelin NEW MARBLE COLONY TO ACCOMMODATE THOUSANDS OF FLYERS The beautiful experiences of bliss from course participants and the astonishing good news coming from the U.S. stock market (see below) inspired Maharishi to announce yesterday a plan to sustain the coherent influence on a permanent basis. Maharishi asked us to quickly build Marble Colonies -- Vastu homes -- in Maharishi University of Management and Maharishi Vedic City, so that one or two thousand more people can come from all over the country and fly as soon as possible. Sidhas can come and live in the new homes, or they can visit for a week or more -- and participate in this "Cosmic Yagya" to maintain a high level of harmony and integration in national consciousness. "Let's provide comfortable accommodations with all the advantages of high-speed Internet and video conferencing, so that anyone can come and do long program -- and run their business afterwards." --Maharishi URGENT NEED FOR HOUSING -- PLEASE HELP! Students are returning to Maharishi University of Management in less than three weeks, and we have to make room for them on campus! (The good news: the number of new students is still growing!) As a result, many course participants will have to move out of dorms rooms. But we don't want them to leave the course! So we are asking EVERYONE who has a home in Fairfield, on or off campus -- whether Vastu or not -- to take in one or more Flyers. (The University does not charge course participants for campus housing; homeowners may do as they wish.) If you have a room or rooms to offer, please email immediately Deanna Freeburg at [EMAIL PROTECTED] and give her your details and contact information. (Or use the form in the domes.) This is especially crucial right now as we expect hundreds more people to arrive in the coming days! So please help! NEW BUSINESS CENTER OPENS ON CAMPUS For course participants who need a computer or high-speed Internet connection, or a quiet place to make some calls, we now have a fully equipped business center with everything you need for your business activities. Come to room 119 in the Dreier Building. WE NEED PHONERS We are already having such a beautiful effect on the country. But we need more Flyers! We are 2/3 of the way to an invincible, peaceful America -- to our super-radiance requirement of 1730 in the domes. We need volunteers to help call all the active Sidhas who have not yet heard and/or responded to Maharishi's call. We have a phone bank in our beautiful Dreier building, so please come and join us to make calls anytime! DES MOINES REGISTER "Stock Market Calmed By Yogis" (July 29, 2006) The stock market was up over 3 percent for the week. You didn't hear this on CNBC, but the surprising rally was the work of the 1,200 yogic flyers assembled in Iowa and Washington, D.C., over the past four days. The yogic flyers, it seems, have been creating a "calm and coherence" that's quieting market "fears and anxieties." John Hagelin, the director of the Institute of Science, Technology and Public Policy at Maharishi University of Management, believes this was just the beginning. "As the number of

Title: Applicants come NOW Subject: New Community Course Program for Bethesda Invincible America Course To UNSUBSCRIBE from this email list click here Dear Governors and Sidhas, As you probably know, the Invincible America Course continues to blossom for all Course Participants in its beautiful progression of experiences of Higher States of Consciousness and life-changing commentaries on those experiences by Maharishi. After a brief pause in the daily meetings with Maharishi during the Raja and Raj Rajeshwari coronation in Vlodrop, the experience sessions have resumed without missing a beat in their richness, warmth, depth and divinity. Maharishi has described that the experiences of all of the CPs are on a slippery slope as they progress to the experience of ever finer levels of Self Referral Consciousness, the junction point, the Constitution of the Universe, from where the administration of the universe is carried out effortlessly. And today he reiterated that we want to repeat these experiences over and over again in the long programs on the Course so that the fibers of the brain become habituated to function on this level all the time and thereby that bliss, that balanced state, is all the time on the level of the mind, intellect and ego. This is such a unique and rare opportunity for everyone. It is no exaggeration to say that everyone who comes on the Course simply does not want to leave! With this, we want to accomplish 2 goals: To enable as many of you as possible to join the Course for a day, a weekend, a week, or longer; and To support our permanent group of Course Participants that are on scholarship to help create an Invincible Washington DC area and Invincible America. There is a wonderfully complementary relationship between the larger group size and deeper experiences, so we want to keep our group big and growing! And Maharishi has asked that we do everything possible to keep a large group here in the DC area. To do this, we have created 3 new, flexible Come Anytime plans to participate in the Course , including the beautiful experience sessions with Maharishi. So here is how you can easily and flexibly join the Course and support the group: Normal Course Fee: $25/day (housing and meals separate); Come Anytime Weekends Course Plan: $108 (54% savings) come any or all weekends (Saturdays and Sundays) of a month (housing and meals separate) Come Anytime Monthly Course Plan: $200 (73% savings) come anytime during a month ( housing and meals separate) Come Anytime Six Month Course Plan: $1,080 (76% savings) come anytime during a six month period (housing and meals separate) Also, vegetarian lunches and dinners are available for $15/meal if you reserve by noon the day before. Our desire is that every Governor and Sidha joins one of these plans. By doing this, you will enjoy rapid growth to Enlightenment personally, you will provide the financial support for our
[FairfieldLife] New York Times Article Oct 8 2006
New York Times October 8, 2006 Outer Peace By LILY KOPPEL In the 1960s, Maharishi Mahesh Yogi -- called the giggling guru by the press -- gained a measure of celebrity for promoting his mantra-repetition technique of Transcendental Meditation around the world and for serving a brief stint as spiritual adviser to the Beatles. His message was that with the proper techniques, each individual could find peace, as one of his disciples, George Harrison, sang, within. Today, his organization claims to hold U.S. assets of $300 million and to have taught six million adherents (training now costs $2,500) in T.M. centers around the world. It also operates a university in Fairfield, Iowa . Maharishi, who is believed to be 89, now confines himself to two rooms in his golden-hued log house in the small Dutch village of Vlodrop . Although he has emerged only a few times in the past year -- for fresh air on a chauffeured drive -- he contends that his most important work lies ahead of him. His first 50 years, he says, were merely a warm-up for his goal of creating world peace by, among other things, rebuilding national capitals according to his harmony-producing precepts. Inner peace, it turns out, is not enough. When I visited Vlodrop this spring, Maharishi agreed to a rare interview. I was permitted in his house but was not allowed into his upstairs quarters. His followers told me that seclusion preserves his energy and that he talks in person to only a small circle of attendants. I spoke to Maharishi by videoconference from a downstairs room where his red velvet gilded throne sat empty. Framed in a flat-screen monitor, he appeared more than ever a mystical creature, his thin face sketched with a white beard. He was dressed in his customary white silk dhoti, a fresh necklace of yellow petals around his neck. His aim, he explained in English, is to create coherence in a world undone by our stressed brains, artificial national borders, terrorism and irrational violence. My coherence-creating groups are going to put out all this mischief-mongership in the world, he said in a high-pitched voice, holding President Bush up as the greatest mischief-monger of all. The world is going to come out to be a neat and clean world. All these countries will fade away. Maharishi regards his own 65-acre enclave as the capital of a Global Country of World Peace; it even has its own currency, the raam. He lives here with 50 of his adherents -- including his minister of science and technology, John Hagelin, a Harvard-educated physicist, but sees little of the bearded Westerners who come for long meditation retreats or research projects. The compound is in a parallel universe to Vlodrop, with its 2,000 locals. One of the few who has crossed over is the town florist, who practices T.M. and each day removes all the thorns from the yogis daily order of bushels of organic roses. Maharishi is not content to promote peace just inside his compound. Hagelin has run for president of the United States three times, and recently, Maharishi chose 40 countries in which to support corps of yogic fliers. The human fliers supposedly use surges of energy to physically lift themselves off the ground. Like a number of aspiring religious thinkers these days, the Maharishi and Hagelin say they believe that the physics of quantum mechanics, with its leaping particles and abundant paradoxes, can be combined with ancient traditions into a new philosophy that stresses the world-changing potential of a transcendental consciousness. Maharishi argues, for instance, that when the square root of 1 percent of the earths population -- that is, 8,000 people -- meditate all at once, the result will be the diffusion of a higher state of consciousness into the atmosphere. Another element of his vision is to rebuild the world according to Vedic principles. He has called for the demolition of improperly oriented buildings, believing them to be toxic, and includes among them the United Nations and the White House. There are proposals for New York and Paris to be cleared to make way for 3,000 marble peace palaces. (His organization operates such palaces in Bethesda Md, Lexington Ky, Houston and Fairfield). Maharishi is also convinced that every countrys capital is wrongly located. In India and America , his organization has bought land near what it calls each countrys brahmastan -- or the geographical and energy center. The future capital of the United States would be Smith Center Kan, population 1,931. Despite the support of celebrities from David Lynch to Donovan, Maharishi has been disappointed in his efforts to recreate the world. Hagelin's poor showing in the 2000 presidential race did not lift his spirits. Locked in legal battles, his organization has not gained permission to raze a Franciscan monastery on its property in Vlodrop. It was also unable to establish sovereignty on 100 acres of Rota, an island in the Pacific. But even
[FairfieldLife] Fwd: A PROGRESS REPORT
Title: INVINCIBLE AMERICA: A PROGRESS REPORT -- Original Message -- Received: Thu, 12 Oct 2006 01:07:56 PM PDT From: Development Office [EMAIL PROTECTED] To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: A PROGRESS REPORT Press release RESULTS FROM THE FIRST 75 DAYS OF THE INVINCIBLE AMERICA COURSE AT MAHARISHI UNIVERSITY OF MANAGEMENT IN FAIRFIELD, IOWA Stock Market Booms, Oil and Gas Prices Plummet, and No Hurricanes Hit U.S. Shores Largest Scientific Demonstration Project Saves the Nation $200 Billion So Far “America is being transformed by the rise of coherence in national consciousness created by the group of 1200 Yogic Flyers in Washington, D.C., and Iowa. As the number rises to 2000, any lingering problems will be quickly resolved.” —World-renowned quantum physicist Dr. John Hagelin A surprisingly robust U.S. economy and a booming stock market, a successful U.S.-brokered cease-fire in Lebanon, and an unexpectedly benign hurricane season are among the clear signs of success of the first 75 days of the largest scientific demonstration project ever to monitor the effect of group Yogic Flying practice on the economic, social, and even climatic trends of the nation. This is the assessment of world-renowned quantum physicist Dr. John Hagelin, director of the ongoing national demonstration project, which is being funded through a generous gift of $12 million a year by the “Howard and Alice Settle Foundation for an Invincible America.” Signs of Success Dr. Hagelin said that since the “Invincible America Course” began on July 23 with 1200 advanced Transcendental Meditation–Yogic Flying experts in Washington, D.C., and Maharishi Vedic City, Iowa, national trends have improved dramatically, as publicly predicted by researchers before the course began: A faltering U.S. economy has suddenly turned robust—led by a booming stock market, which pulled out from its downward spiral in mid-July and has since climbed nearly 1000 points, breaking all-time records The price of oil, which peaked at $78 a barrel in mid-July, has plummeted more than 25% to below $58 a barrel—with gas prices dropping 25% as well A surprisingly effective U.S.-brokered cease-fire in Lebanon has prevented a dangerous escalation of violence in the region Dire predictions of a destructive Atlantic hurricane season have proven unfounded, as no hurricanes have struck U.S. shores this year “This dramatic transformation in national trends, which began with the start of the demonstration project, is no mere coincidence or anomaly,” Dr. Hagelin said. “This transformation is the direct result of the increased coherence in national consciousness created by the 1200 Yogic Flyers.” According to Dr. Hagelin, the nation has saved at least $200 billion in hurricane costs (Katrina alone caused an estimated $150 billion in damages), with untold billions more added to the economy by the bullish stock market. Extensive published research confirms the benefits of the “Maharishi Effect” Dr. Hagelin cited prior research, published in leading, peer-reviewed scientific journals, which has documented reduced negative trends, including reduced crime and violence, and improved economic and social trends when as few as the square root of one percent of a population practice Yogic Flying together in a group. Scientists named this phenomenon the “Maharishi Effect” after His Holiness Maharishi Mahesh Yogic, the renowned Vedic scholar who founded the Transcendental Meditation program, and who predicted the beneficial impact of group meditation on social trends as early as 1975. Creating the “Meissner Effect” for the nation Dr. Hagelin, who serves as President of the US Peace Government and Minister of Science and Technology of the Global Country of World Peace, said that group Yogic Flying practice creates the equivalent in society of the “Meissner Effect” of physics. “The Meissner Effect refers to the ability of a superconductor to spontaneously repel any disruptive influences, due to the coherent functioning of its atomic constituents,” Dr. Hagelin said. “The Meissner Effect explains how coherent national consciousness created by the Yogic Flyers can similarly repel any disruptive influence—terrorism, conflict, or even a hurricane—and prevent it from inflicting damage on the nation.” Group of 2000 Yogic Flyers needed to make the nation invincible Dr. Hagelin acknowledged that serious problems persist in the world, but said that as the number of Yogic Flyers in the U.S. reaches the square root of one percent of the U.S. population (about 2000), there will be an even more dramatic improvement in national trends, and any lingering problems will be quickly resolved. “This is not wishful thinking,” Dr. Hagelin said. “This is hard science that has been field-tested for over 50 years and documented through more than 600 studies conducted at over 250 independent universities and research institutes throughout the world.” Establishing a “Ring of Invincibility”

[FairfieldLife] pandit update: some tomorrow, and 360 by friday 10/27
GOOD NEWS: 360 Pundits will arrive this Friday, Oct 27 with some arriving as early as Tuesday, Oct 24! -- Original Message -- Received: Mon, 23 Oct 2006 06:46:49 PM PDT From: Maryanne Lee-Hartman [EMAIL PROTECTED] To: [EMAIL PROTECTED], [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: [TMFriends] GOOD NEWS: 360 Pundits will arrive this Friday, Oct 27 with some arriving as early as Tuesday, Oct 24! (From: Einar Olsen) Dear Friends, I dont use a large email list, am sending this to a few friends and acquaintances, Raja Wynne made the formal announcement today about the Pandits, during the end of the daily talk with Maharishi. Each of these daily calls seems like a major event in development of ones consciousness and group consciousness. Maharishi is taking this IA group to and toward enlightenment, and the longer one stays, the further one goes along. To adjust a few things I said before: Raja W said 360 Pandits will be here by this Friday, with some coming as early as Tuesday. 40 will stay in the Capital, and 80 in each of four frats: 109, 110, 111 and 114. We will wait til they get here, then give them their choice of their all flying in their respective living units, or the Dome, or the Grand Assembly Hall and all the other men will adjust as needed. The MVC men may move into Headley Hall in back of MVC City Hall and in front of the Capital. (Dr. Robert Schneider who raised the funds for Headley Hall and whose Institute has the second floor there, has been with Maharishi in Vlodrop since Guru Purnima helping develop Maharishis new Vedic Medicine curriculum to train Vedic medical professionals.) The central lobby of each frat is large enough for a program hall for those living in that frat. The frats are built with a kitchen and dining hall downstairs, and the plan now is to get those back up and running for each frat. The Capital has a full functioning kitchen already. Really the frats are so well-designed for use by the Pandits like this, they should be very happy. Its a bit of a beehive around here among CPs and staff as you can imagine. Its interesting to go to Annapurna and see all sorts of students and even some staff for whom all the activity is more distant in their horizons, after hearing Drs. Bevan and John speak enthusiastically (and truthfully) of how this is the greatest event in the history of the country (after Maharishis trips here). The excitement is definitely balanced or grounded by all the solid experiences of Unity that hundreds of people are having. Even the largest events and experiences are small compared with the definite experience of infinity and unboundedness. One CP here (Alan Marks) Maharishi gave a PhD to today, and also a gold medal for top experience. These calls with Maharishi are like those candy bars wrapper mottos: indescribably delicious. There seems to be an unending line-up of people with experiences of truly unified and complete consciousness, and the variety of experiences and descriptions is Real Impressive. Each experience is so sumptuous and nourishing and non-attaching to even hear, and one thinks boy that cant be topped then the next person or the next day there are more just as good or better. Hearing them is not just intellectually and emotionally enlivening, it is powerfully and transcendentally transformational. One gets in this mood, well what next, and perfection and enlightenment start to feel more and more natural and normal. Maharishi liked this one in particular because it was simple, not intellectualized, and at the end as part and parcel of the experience in an authentic way Alan offered everything to Maharishi. Maharishi always really picks up on that especially when its not just said because its supposed to be, and offers it to Guru Dev. Also, when anyone speaks, Maharishi not only listens to and reacts not just to what is said but who is saying it because he can see everything about the person. Raja Wynne also said visas are continuing to be given above these 360, and the cooks coming now are in addition, which will bring the numbers here from the current 1200 to about 1550 as a stable basis. The 200 coming for free TM-Sidhis in November will hopefully establish official superadiance (1733), unless Maharishi sends more Pandits before then or more others come when the first Pandits come. 2,000 is the number Maharishi really wants and has been speaking of since the beginning of the Invincible America project. The first Pandit buildings arrive this coming Friday, as the Pandits start to move in, more rooms will open on campus for fortunate people who come to the Course.

[FairfieldLife] vedic city election speculation
Blank. i read in todays FF Ledger, a whopping 30 ppl cast their votes in Maharishi Vedic City. in an official climate of damn democracy, i guess that makes them the rebel activists? all incumbents were re-elected un-opposed, including Mayor Wynne and the city council. surprisingly, only Chris Johnson (owner/developer of Rukmapura Park Hotel Chalets) gained the full 30 votes. Raja/Mayor Wynne got the least share of 30 at 26, which on that small scale is almost 15% not for him. Running unopposed, this has no impact on his winning or not winning, therefore i am most curious why 4 voters ommitted Wynne? I dont think he has any actual opposition in the town. So i speculate that maybe the 4 missing votes were a symbolic statement, perhaps given to Susan Dillbeck (a powerful local who spearheads the women's Spiritual University, which is sexually segregated...women only). THis is my guess, it makes sense if you consider there are no women on the city government level. if any one knows differently, would love to hear corrections peace, george d. Yahoo!

[FairfieldLife] Day of Awakening Celebration - today in Washington DC
Today 11/12/05: ** Maharishi to Address Global Celebrations of the Day of Awakening of Permanent World Peace ** New Capital of the Global Country of World Peace to Be Established in Washington, DC To Create Coherent National Consciousness - the Basis of Ideal, Prevention-Oriented Administration His Holiness Maharishi Mahesh Yogi, founder of the Global Country of World Peace, will address the grand, global celebrations of the Day of Awakening of Permanent World Peace, to be held on Saturday, November 12-the Day of Awakening of Total Natural Law in the annual Vedic calendar. Maharishi will speak live via satellite and Internet webcast from the Capital of the Global Country of World Peace in Meru, Holland. The celebration will begin at 1:00 p.m. (ET). During the festivities, His Highness Raja Dr. Dean Dodrill, the Raja of Washington, will announce the establishment of the Capital of the Global Country of World Peace in Washington, D.C. Raja Dean said the new Capital will provide government leaders with the knowledge and scientifically validated programs of Total Natural Law - the Constitution of the Universe - to create coherent collective consciousness, which is the basis of prevention-oriented, problem free administration and invincibility for the nation. Washington, D.C. is the capital of the world, Raja Dean said. Now, with the establishment here of the Capital of the Global Country of World Peace, Washington will become a lighthouse of coherence and harmony for the whole world - a capital of peace - creating permanent peace in the family of nations. The celebrations in the United States will be held at The Fairmont Hotel, 2401 M Street, NW, beginning at 12 noon (ET) and will also include a gala luncheon banquet; the traditional Vedic recitation of the Anthem of the Global Country of World Peace by Vedic Pandits; and addresses by Dr. John Hagelin, President of the U.S. Peace Government and Minister of Science and Technology of the Global Country of World Peace; Dr. Bevan Morris, Prime Minister of the Global Country of World Peace; and the Rajas of the seven domains of the Global Country of World Peace in the United States. Maharishi's celebration of the Day of Awakening of Permanent World Peace follows by nearly four months Maharishi's proclamation of the dawn of Heaven on Earth - Sat Yuga - on July 21, 2005, Guru Purnima Day. Maharishi announced that his Global Peace Program, which includes establishing large numbers of peace-creating Vedic Pandits in India performing Vedic Yagyas and Grahashanti, as well as groups of peace-creating Yogic Flyers in every country, is creating coherent world consciousness - the basis of permanent world peace. World press reports since Maharishi launched his Global Peace Program in April 2005 clearly show a dramatic a turnaround in world events, including rapidly increasing harmony between former enemy nations and a growing rejection by people throughout the world of destructive government policies. The time of destruction is over, Maharishi proclaimed. The light of Total Natural Law - the light of peace - is dawning for the whole world family. -- Yahoo!

[FairfieldLife] From George Clooney -- Responding as ONE to Hurricane Katrina
- Original Message - From: George Clooney Sent: Friday, September 02, 2005 8:09 PM Subject: Hurricane Katrina: Responding as ONE Dear Friend: In the wake of the destruction brought on by Hurricane Katrina, hundreds of thousands of Americans are facing an uncertain and challenging future. We've all watched together as increasingly dire reports have come out of the hardest hit areas of Louisiana, Mississippi and Alabama, and right now our nation is trying to find its footing as it responds to one of the worst disasters that we've ever faced. We all see the pictures on TV. Right now, they need water, food, clothing, shelter and medical attention, and soon they'll begin the long process of putting their lives back together... hospitals, sewers, schools...all the things that we take for granted every day. As members of ONE, we must believe that Americans can't help people around the world unless we also take care of urgent needs at home.

[FairfieldLife] In Defense of the Maharishi (a True Believer perspective)
Maharishi's Definition of Heaven on EarthMaharishi's faultless vision, timeless wisdom and infinite compassion for all mankind are obvious in the following Definitions of Heaven on Earth. Having a vision of what Heaven on Earth can be like is not enough to live in heaven. Maharishi has brought out the easily learned procedures necessary for bringing heavenly life to earth. No other teacher of any time or place, besides Maharishi, has been blessed with the knowledge capable of bringing heavenly life to earth and the means to fulfill that ideal of life. With today's fast pace of life and communication everyone can learn what is necessary to bring heaven to their life and their society. Maharishi has made creation of Heaven on Earth simple, reliable and easily achieved. He has enlivened the ancient procedures, developed the necessary programs, tested their validity, published the results and invited every government and every family to adopt this knowledge. Never before has such true compassion been displayed on Earth. SOURCE: http://www.alltm.org/Maharishi/Heaven_on_Earth.html -- Yahoo! Groups Sponsor ~-- Get fast access to your favorite Yahoo! Groups.

Title: Founders Day September 12, 2005 . Dear Alumni and Friends,This Monday marks the 34th anniversary of the founding of Maharishi University of Management and as many of us remember, Maharishi International University. How can we ever begin to thank Maharishi for all the love, precious wisdom, and great patience he has bestowed upon us throughout the years?Let's celebrate together this coming Monday evening, September 12. Plans are still in the works. We are hopeful to connect with Holland or at least have some inspirational words. Locally, I would like to invite all those who wish to share in the "yagya" of thanksgiving to our Founder, to help bake sweets and treats and bring them to the Dome Monday evening, bring flowers or plants to help decorate the stage, and any other ideas you may have. Maharishi had organized such a magnificent celebration of thanks honoring Guru Dev this recent Guru Purnima Celebration that it would be so wonderful to return that thanks to Maharishi. Please call me or email me with your thoughts and let's all plan a beautiful evening together, beginning with large group program.Jai Guru DevJennine Fellmer[EMAIL PROTECTED]641-470-1349 To subscribe, send a message to: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Or go to: http://groups.yahoo.com/group/FairfieldLife/ and click 'Join This Group!'

[FairfieldLife] What Katrina revealed
Hurricane Katrina has been, first and foremost, a human disaster -- a seemingly endless tale of suffering marked by lives lost, communities dispersed and families torn asunder. Our hearts go out to the hundreds of thousands of displaced people who are now struggling to piece some semblance of their lives back together. NRDC is doing all that we can -- as I'm sure you are -- to aid the ongoing relief effort in the Gulf states. We're also contributing our special expertise on oil spills, toxic pollution and drinking water in order to help meet the immediate challenges. As the flood waters begin receding, Americans are also beginning to gain some much-needed perspective on our fragile place in the natural world. Few events in our lifetime have revealed so dramatically the deep interconnectedness between people and nature. As an environmental organization, NRDC has a profound obligation to ensure that the environmental lessons of this disaster are not only learned, but that they are heard loud and clear in our nation's capital. Hurricane Katrina destroyed more than human lives and homes. She also blew away a decade's worth of denial about major environmental problems that confront America. Katrina destroyed the fantasy that we can blithely go on increasing our dangerous dependence on oil -- whether imported or domestic. Our oil-addicted economy is just too vulnerable to supply disruptions, as anyone who filled up their gas tank last week discovered. The solution is NOT to drill and destroy the Arctic National Wildlife Refuge -- or our beautiful coastlines -- as many in Congress are now suggesting. Drilling in the Arctic would not have any impact on gas prices until 2025, and even then it would only reduce prices at the pump by a trivial 1.5 cents per gallon. Our nation simply does not have enough oil reserves to affect world oil prices. The only way out of this mess is to reduce our appetite for oil by improving the fuel economy of our vehicles (which consume 40 percent of our oil) and by relying on smarter, cleaner and renewable ways to power our economy. Katrina also exposed the fiction that we can dredge, bulldoze and fill millions of acres of coastal wetlands without paying a price. Wetland ecosystems are Mother Nature's perfect buffer against catastrophic storm surges. Destroy that buffer and you destroy the last line of defense, not only for New Orleans but for a host of other American cities. In this case, as in so many others, what's good for the wildlife of coastal America is also indispensable to its people. We are part of nature. Katrina demolished the pretense that we needn't reckon with global warming. While no single hurricane can be directly linked to global warming, climate scientists agree that we are entering an epoch of warming oceans, rising sea levels and much more intense storms. We know full well what kind of pollution controls are required to reverse this trend. If we don't act, Katrina will be our future. You can't say she didn't warn us. Finally, Katrina tore the lid off one of our nation's most shameful truths: that petrochemical plants, toxic waste sites, oil refineries and other industrial threats to human health are most often sited next to low-income minority communities. The rest of America regularly averts its eyes from this injustice. But with the poorest neighborhoods of New Orleans drowning in a hazardous sea of fuel, sewage and chemicals, it's hard not to notice just which of our citizens are paying the ultimate price. Oil addiction. Wetland destruction. Global warming. Environmental injustice. You're well aware that NRDC has been working for years to awaken America to these terrible problems and to champion urgently needed solutions. But Katrina has changed everything. The public is finally paying attention. And officials in Washington are looking to respond. Our challenge is making sure our leaders take away the right lessons from this disaster and respond with real solutions, not with the old ways of thinking or business-as-usual giveaways to well-connected industries. It won't be easy. The Bush administration and congressional leaders have spent the last four years digging us ever deeper into a hole of oil dependence, wetland destruction, global warming pollution and environmental injustice. It's unspeakably tragic that it took a deadly hurricane to expose this gaping crater. There's an old proverb that says, If you find yourself in a hole, stop digging. Getting our leaders to stop digging will be a tall order. But with more hurricanes sure to follow in Katrina's wake, we have no choice but to dedicate ourselves to the task at hand. As always, NRDC will be counting on your commitment, your support and your activism at every step of the way. Sincerely, John H. Adams, President NRDC (Natural Resources Defense Council) http://www.savebiogems.org -- Yahoo! Groups Sponsor
[FairfieldLife] Fwd: Avon Park Closing
-- Original Message -- Received: Thu, 15 Sep 2005 06:14:55 AM PDT From: Maharishi Vedic School [EMAIL PROTECTED] To: undisclosed-recipients:; Subject: Avon Park Closing Dear Governors, Sidhas, and Meditators: After many years of service to the Florida community and those coming from many other areas of the country, the Maharishi Vedic School at Avon Park is ceasing operations. The facility has been sold and no further courses will be offered, as we are starting to make preparations to move out. We are also at the early stages of planning a new facility at a different location, built in proper Vastu, acccording to the principles of Sthapatya Veda. We want to send a heartfelt Thank You to those of you who throughout the years have been attending the many courses and activities offered at the School, and those of you who have supported this Maharishi facility through hard work, dedication, and financial contributions. We remind those fortunate ones of the old saying As you sow, so shall you reap. As you may imagine, the coming weeks will be very busy for us at Avon Park. There are two areas of activity uppermost in our minds: moving trucks and storage facilities. If any of you can offer any assitance in those areas, we will be very grateful. We would like to ask those who have sponsored rooms, to make arrangements to retrieve the furniture in your rooms. Ideally this would have to be accomplished by September 30. Please let us know if you are coming, or if you would like us to dispose of the furniture. We anticipate that some items will be placed in refrigerated storage, some may be transferred to other movement facilities, and some will be donated to needy individuals or charitable institutions. Again, thank you very much for your attendance and dedication to create coherence for yourselves and the State of Florida. Although we don't have objective measures, we are sure that this facility has made an important difference in the life of all the residents of the State. We will keep in touch, and expect to see many of you at our new facility, whenever that manifests.

[FairfieldLife] David Lynch a hit in Michigan
Title: MLive.com's Printer-Friendly Page Packed crowd hears Filmmaker David Lynch shares zeal for transcendental meditation Monday, September 26, 2005 BY JENN MCKEENews Arts Writer If you arrived on time to see filmmaker David Lynch talk about transcendental meditation last night at the Power Center, you were already too late. The venue was packed to capacity. Harried Power Center employees with walkie-talkies loudly stated, again and again, that there were no available seats anywhere in the building, but dozens of people nonetheless lingered at both ground floor entrances, hoping a spot would miraculously open up. (Despite early reports that equipment had not been set up to provide video feed of the talk, those who stayed did eventually get to hear and see most of Lynch's presentation by way of television monitors in the lobby.) The evening's program began with opening remarks from Ed Sarath, a University of Michigan jazz professor and the director and founder of U-M's Program in Creativity and Consciousness Studies (which sponsored Lynch's appearance, along with U-M Integrative Medicine, the Center for Urban Innovation, and the Program in Film and Video Studies). Next, Teresa Adams, administrative assistant for PCCS, provided an introduction for Lynch, listing his achievements in film as well as his broad range of artistic interests (sculpting, painting, photography, etc.). Adams then announced that Lynch would take questions immediately, so audience members moved to line up behind two microphones. As they made their way, Lynch - dressed in a suit, with his thick, gray hair neatly swept back - stepped to the podium and explained that he had started out his career as a painter; the idea of a moving painting was what started him in the direction of animation and, ultimately, film. The first person at the microphone wanted to give Lynch his resume. Lynch said, "Are you a transcendental meditator?'' to which the questioner quipped, "I will be, if you take a look at this.'' Throughout the evening, Lynch nearly always steered his answers back to the topic of TM - a form of meditation that aims to bring the body into a deep state of rest while the mind becomes calm yet alert - but he also offered occasional nuggets of humorous advice, such as: "Always write your ideas down, because if you don't and you forget them, you'll feel like committing suicide.'' One audience member asked about the role of music in Lynch's films. "Every element in a film is important,'' said Lynch. "The trick is to get each element to blend with the whole.'' Another attendee wanted to know when the second season of "Twin Peaks'' would be released, but Lynch couldn't provide an answer. In response to a question about whether or not he would take on science fiction again (Lynch directed "Dune''), Lynch said, "A lot of films deal with consciousness and different dimensions and all kinds of stuff. But I like real things - not to fiddle around with fiction, but to find the truth of a thing.'' Soon, Lynch introduced Dr. John Hagelin, a physicist (featured in the documentary, "What the Bleep Do We Know?'') who discussed how he believed TM had the capacity to cause positive worldwide political, social, and intellectual shifts. "We could see a more fundamental unity of man - though it's not happening very fast with this current administration,'' Hagelin said, drawing applause. Hagelin spoke about the many advantages of TM for young people, particularly in regard to learning. To follow up, Fred Travis, of the Maharishi University of Management, made a presentation that included watching the brain activity of an audience volunteer. (The demonstration showed how the brain activity of an active mind differed from that of a mind at rest.) Lynch then returned to the podium to take a few final questions. One attendee expressed a religion-based skepticism of TM. "I was raised Christian,'' replied Lynch. "I love Jesus, and people from all religions practice transcendental meditation. ... I believe all the great religions are rivers running to one ocean. ... There's no conflict.'' Lynch later expressed his own initial resistance to the idea of meditation. "I thought meditation was a waste of time,'' said Lynch. "I didn't know what in the heck they were doing. But then I saw the faces of yogis sitting in a forest, meditating, and they didn't look homeless. They knew something I didn't know. They had a

[FairfieldLife] Important Message from Raja LoPinto of Potomac Vedic America
Dear Governors and Sidhas,As many of you may already know, Maharishi has asked Raja Dean and his family to move into the Peace Palace and utilize the entire second floor so that their family may be comfortable. This is a great blessing for our community and for the world as Maharishi continues to direct his attention to our area and specifically to the critical need for greater coherence in Washington , DC, where, Maharishi recently told me, The national stress is making the President so wild." Maharishi has great concern about the destructive policies of our nations leaders, and is now directing Raja Deans activities daily to expand our Movement in Washington and thereby purify and bring coherence to that city. Accordingly, Maharishi feels that it is critical for Raja Dean and his family to be in proper vastu so that they may experience maximum support of Nature for the important role he is engaged in. In the coming weeks and months, you will hear more about these new activities of our Movements expansion in Washington.Our community has always been at the forefront in our Movement of completely embracing Maharishis wishes and Divine guidance our having built the first Peace Palace is but one symbol of that. And it is clear that Maharishi knows and appreciates this, which is another reason why his attention has increasingly been on our Peace Palace and region as evidenced by him making this a Time Zone Capital, having Vedic Experts living here, having daily live Vedic Recitations at the Peace Palace (Maharishi had us place a network camera in the Hall of Knowledge so he can watch this each day via the internet), and his having sent Raja Dean and his family here from Richmond to purify and expand our Movement in Washington. This is a beautiful and rare thing in our Movement, and all of you are to be congratulated and blessed for your persistent vision and support. I should note that Maharishi had requested this move over 6 months ago and continues to ask Raja Dean if he has done it. However, Raja Dean delayed moving in for many months because of his concern for displacing group program and the people working in the building. But Maharishis focus is on the whole world and the influential role that Washington plays in it, and so he persisted in asking Raja Dean to make the move immediately. Raja Dean had recently moved into all but the flying halls, but has now completed their move and so the program has temporarily been relocated to a neighboring building that we have rented for this purpose (see information below).Our communitys great vision and steadfast commitment to Maharishi has also brought us the good fortune of being the first community to have a second Peace Palace where land has been purchased. Through the efforts of Jeffrey Abramson, this new building is in the governmental approval process, which we expect will be completed within the coming months. While this is happening, we are also working on obtaining financing for the building so that we can begin construction upon obtaining the approvals. After completion of this new Peace Palace, our group program will once again return to the Peace Palace(s), and from this bastion of bliss that we are creating from our campus in North Bethesda, our region will begin to burst forth in the Light of God and assume its rightful role of leading the world in peace and harmony.I know that I speak for all of us when I say that our commitment is based on our dear love for Maharishi, for the great Vedic Knowledge that he has revived in its purity and has brought to all of us and the world, and for all that Maharishi is doing to rid the world of suffering and discomfort and bring peace and harmony to the minds and hearts of all mankind. We are Maharishis Movement, all of us, and you are all the greatest examples of this Movement. The history books and all future generations will offer great thanks to your leadership in this cause of all causes!I know you will all join me in continuing to warmly embrace our dear Raja Dean and his family, and to offer all of our support to make them as comfortable as possible in their new home.Finally, I would like to have a meeting with our entire community in the coming weeks and will send an email announcement about that in the next few days. In that meeting, it will be wonderful to welcome our 2 new Directors, Donna Schechtman and Peter DeRuiter (whom, you may recall, used to work at the front desk before he attended the recent TTC). I would also like to discuss some new initiatives for the Potomac Vedic America domain (MD, VA, WV) and get your thoughts and support. And, I have missed seeing everyone and would like to spend some quality time together!With warmest regards,Jai Guru DevRaja Bob http://www.globalgoodnews.com/world-peace-a.html?art=112516138945972938Raja of Potomac Vedic America -- To subscribe, send a message to: [EMAIL

[FairfieldLife] Vedic Astrologer warns: Yet another hurricane
this guy out of San Francisco is doing some real good jyotish readings and daily podcasts. he expects more "water damage" this week... according to the planetary set-up. so, just keep meditating! george d. - Original Message - From: sadasiva To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Wednesday, October 19, 2005 2:34 PM Subject: Yet another hurricane Moon will pass through Ardra on Saturday and just like the last 3 times, we are looking at another Massive hurricane when it does. here is a dalogue i had w/ someone on another list about this:he asked: Quote: "Are you saying that it is the combination of NNode in Pisces, along with Saturn in Cancer being squared by Mars (Sidereal) that is so virulent?" I replied:Yes I am. * Two of the three water signs have a slow moving malefic * Saturn is weak in cancer and aspected by a VERY powerful Mars in Aries. IN Vedic they are also in sambandha, mutual aspect, as Mars casts a 4th house aspect forward and Saturn a 4th house backward (by Sign) SO Saturn (and therefore Cancer) gets the worst of it * North Node is a windy planet, (vata nature) and creates - so each time the Moon has entered Ardra (ruled by the NOrth node don't forget) the last 3 months we have had an event. pretty incredible. A hurricane is Hot Water and wind growing into a monstrous form. Mars, North node and Saturn maniplutaing / harming through water. (the signs) *Katrina happened when Jupiter and Venus (two water PLANETS) were also harmed in Virgo (Jupiter in enemy's sign - Venus Debilitated) * Rita happened after Venus left debility and was in Libra, (her own signs) thus not as bad as expected. * Wilma is now happening and Venus is in Scorpio, (ruled by a powerful Mars - the other water sign) so look out. The Sun is also Debilitated and Jupiter is combust and in Libra. (not a strong sign) In Jyotish, it is quite clear - at least to me it is. I predicted water troubles early this year, but i suspected terrorist, poisoning the water supply or something. (as the north node also rules poisons and radiation) Instead we have had these hurricanes. Which BTW, have led to major water concerns and poisoning. I knew there would be some major water problems, i was just not seeing the obvious, hurricanes - Weather patterns. This is a new type of Astorlogy for me to be learning about. he asked: Quote: "Is Mars actually in close square to Saturn right now, in Sidereal astrology? Tropically, they are no where near a close square. " I replied:Well technically by exact degree perhaps not yet, but given that Mars is retrograding TOWARD Saturn (the point of square by orb) the intensity is increased. I would not say "nowhere near" a close square though, considering every 90 degrees a square is formed, they are close to 10 degrees of orb and one planet is retro toward the square, Tropically or sidereally, the math is the same. But don't worry, that exact square is coming soon, a few times as Mars will retro then go direct over it. We have several looming threats of terrorism (notice the alerts increasing?) - avian flu, all kinds of other stuff possible when the EXACT orb hits. Sorry is this seems ominous and gloomy - welcome to life! -- It is all Mother nature doing her thing -- yet it is hard to see these tragedies - we all must keep prayers in our heart because these are dangerous times and there are more to come for a while,, IMO. BTW - I am not just saying these things now, but i cited the same things a month and a half ago when john posted about why this happened and that in Western Astrology there was no real good reason for it, (I am paraphrasing of course) the posting is in here somewhere. - if anyone cares to look,, I cited Node in PIsces, Saturn in cancer, Mars in Aries Soon to be retro. Jup and Venus harmed, Ardra Nakshatra. Since then 2 more times, astoundingly! - right now the Moon is 3 days from Ardra, so in 3 days (saturday) we will be dealing w/ massiva amounts of water and flooding - probably starting the day before as happened w/ Rita.. Mars's Nakshatra Mrgashira is he day before Ardra.

For more details and online subscriptions, see: www.TMNews.net - Main stories in the issue: MAHARISHI PROCLAIMS THAT THE WORLD IS ON THE THRESHOLD OF CHANGE In his global press conferences, televised live from his international headquarters in Meru, Holland, Maharishi has proclaimed a new time dawning for the world, announcing that the light of Sat Yuga is rising quickly. Our lead article quotes excerpts from Maharishi's discussions in recent weeks. I am alerting the world press, said Maharishi. Watch and see the downfall and disappearance of the destroyers of the world - and the rise of harmony, happiness, real purposeful administration in the world: the dawn of a new age. NUCLEAR ALERT! Leading scientists in every country are being urged to step forward and take on a leadership role in the new Global Union of Scientists for Peace, an organisation founded by Dr John Hagelin, President of the US Peace Government, to stop the threat of nuclear proliferation and war through the establishment of large peace-creating groups of Yogic Flyers in every nation. EVERYTHING IS POSSIBLE BY FOLLOWING THE PATH OF KNOWLEDGE Special message from His Highness Dr Peter Warburton, Raja of England, with a review of the current status and opportunities offered by Maharishi's Movement in Great Britain, including the new opening to construct fortune-creating Vastu homes around the country for all Mediators, Sidhas, and Governors MAHARISHI'S GLOBAL RECONSTRUCTION PROGRAMME FOR PERMANENT WORLD PEACE A two-page special on Sthapatya Veda is included in this issue. The first page looks at Maharishi's latest and most complete plans for global reconstruction according to Natural Law, including not only the building of homes and workplaces to create just nourishing effects, but also the reconstruction of education, health, and agriculture, and the establishment in every city of an ideal venue for Maharishi's programmes, the city Peace Palace. THE VALUE OF PROPER ORIENTATION Completing his review of Maharishi's reconstruction programme, Charles Cunningham looks at recent research on Sthapatya Veda. Is sleeping with head to the east really more healthy? Is there evidence that an east-facing building is more fortune-promoting? Do burglaries happen more often in south-facing homes? Find out here.

SEVEN CATEGORIES OF MAHARISHI AYURVEDA PRODUCTS The Peace Palaces will also offer seven categories of Maharishi Ayurveda Products, according to a presentation at Maharishi's Guru Purnima celebrations by Anand Shrivastava, Chief Executive of MAP. An initial range of 150 products is immediately available, and this will soon be expanded to 400-500 products, he reported. CONSCIOUSNESS-BASED EDUCATION A NECESSITY NOT A LUXURY, DAVID LYNCH TELLS MEDIA We continue our coverage of the extensive media reports of film-maker David Lynch, who is taking time out from his latest movie - Inland Empire - to promote Maharishi's Consciousness Based Education. There is tons of resistance to putting TM in schools because where there's misunderstanding there's fear, he told The Times in September. The first step is to explain to parents what TM isn't and what it is. You tell them what results to expect and they say, I want this for my child. QA We continue our regular feature on Maharishi's answers to questions from the media in his weekly press conferences.

[FairfieldLife] TM once big in Nepal, what happened?
Title: BBC NEWS | World | South Asia | Why the world is watching Nepal Why the world is watching Nepal By Paul Reynolds World Affairs correspondent, BBC News website While it would be an exaggeration to say that Nepal occupies a strategic position in the world - isolated as it is in the Himalayas - its future is being watched closely. Partly this is for sentimental reasons. The kingdom used to be the destination of choice for thousands of Western hippies who thought of it as a mountain Shangri-la. The one-time guru of the Beatles, Maharishi Mahesh Yogi, had connections in Nepal and once broadcast his vision of saving the world by "Transcendental Meditation" on Nepali television. So there is a great interest in the West to see how that quiet and peaceful place (perhaps not so quiet underneath) has developed into the scene of civil war, repression, riot and uprising. It is the government of India that is the most concerned. India itself has considerable problems with Maoist rebels The Yogi's message does not seem to have worked. But then the 1960s and their message of flower power are a long time ago. The world has moved on in more violent ways, and Nepal is a part of that movement. Then there is the Everest trek that keeps Nepal in a wider public eye. Currently teams of climbers are preparing for their attempts on the summit during the calm period between now and the end of May. They have largely escaped the recent troubles, although two climbers were injured last November when Maoist rebels attacked their vehicle on its way to base camp. And there is the added factor in Britain because Nepal is home to the Gurkha fighters who serve in the British army. Indian fears But beyond these attachments to Nepal are more serious considerations. The main one is whether the end of monarchical power as exercised by King Gyanendra develops into democratic politics of some kind, or whether the Maoist rebellion spreads from the countryside to the cities and takes control. It is the government of India that is the most concerned. India itself has considerable problems with Maoist rebels. Rebels are active in several states - Andhra Pradesh, Orissa, Chhattisgarh, Jharkhand. Maharashtra and Bihar. Some of the these places are a long way from the modern image of India as the growing regional and world power, whose development is spurred by high technology. The rebellions are fuelled by issues of land and poverty and India does not want the example of a Maoist Nepal to encourage further protest. India sent an envoy to talk to King Gyanendra, but its intervention has been criticised by the Indian opposition BJP party as "too little and too late". The BJP president Dr Rajnath Singh said that India should exert pressure to ensure that Maoists are not given positions of influence in Nepal. He wants a renewed effort to crush the Maoist rebellion. India fears that there are links between Maoists in Nepal and their fellow fighters in India. Stark divide Perhaps for too long, the world averted its eyes from the reality of Nepal, distracted by its Shangri-La image. It should have been seen as somewhere that could show how modern ideas of democracy and development - as opposed to the communal policies urged by the Maoists - could work. But Nepal did not manage to address the problems presented by its 28 million people, many of them clinging to a precarious existence on the crowded slopes of the mountains. I visited both Nepal and another Himalayan kingdom, Bhutan, in 1997 and the difference was stark. A lot had to do with the number of people. Bhutan was almost empty. It had little traffic (and all cars were tracked by officials at road junctions) and no traffic lights, the only pair having been removed as unnecessary. The king controlled everything and, at that time, there was not even television. The Indians had built roads south to North to be able to reinforce in case of trouble from China but the place was placid. Nepal was already beginning to seethe. From the air, one could see that every inch of useable mountainside had been terraced and cultivated. But there just was not enough room for the people to make a decent living and the government was unable to lift them out of their plight. The rest followed.

Title: World Peace News: Top Stories Global celebrations usher in a time of peace and happiness for the world by GGN staff writer Global Good News Translate This Article 25 July 2005 On 25 July 2005 Global Good News reported: On 21 July, the full moon day that is traditionally dedicated to the Guru in the Vedic Calendar, many thousands of citizens of the Global Country of World Peace, peace-loving citizens and practitioners of Maharishi's Transcendental Meditation technique in every nation, gathered in Meru, Holland, or connected via satellite and Internet broadcast to participate in an historic global celebration to usher in a new time of peace and happiness for the world. The celebration took place at the heart of a ten-day international conference dedicated to bringing the full realization of this new time as quickly as possible. It is a joy for Global Good News service to feature this news, which indicates the success of the life-supporting programmes Maharishi has designed to bring fulfilment to the field of world-peace. Meru, the Capital of the Global Country of World Peace in the Netherlands, is set amidst exquisite formal gardens, fountains and acres of woodland. Its elegant, spacious central building, constructed of all-natural materials, was designed entirely according to the principles of Vedic Architecture. In this place of serene beauty and lively silence, it seems that the goals of the conference have already blossomed fully. Each day the conference begins with the arrival of the long line of royal white limousines, followed by the royal processional of His Majesty Maharaja Nader Raam, first ruler of the Global Country of World Peace, who is richly attired in white and gold silk robes and a gold crown. The sound of bagpipe music fills the air heralding the arrival of Maharaja Nader Raam, and 22 more Rajas, also wearing robes and golden crowns. Each of these 22 Rajas is responsible for bringing the life-supporting programmes of the Global Country of World Peace to the 10-12 countries in their care. Inside, the conference halls are lavishly decorated with golden thrones for the Rajas, large arrangements of fresh flowers and stately greenery, graceful silk draperies, and luxurious red carpeting. They are filled to capacity with thousands of dedicated leaders and supporters of the Global Country of World Peace. The conference is blessed by the presence of His Holiness Maharishi Mahesh Yogi, the world's foremost scientist and Vedic scholar who introduced Transcendental Meditation and the knowledge of Total Natural Law to the world to raise individual and national life to perfection. A great highlight of the conference on 22 July was a beautiful address by Maharishi. Following are a few points from the talk. Maharishi described the profound value of the Veda. He said that the Veda structures the human physiology. Yet the Veda itself is uncreated. It is eternal because the level of the Veda, the level of the structure of the Laws of Nature is Parame Vyoman, transcendental. Being transcendental, it is not exposed to change or decay. The Veda says that one should know that by knowing which everything is known. Maharishi explained that this means we need to know Atma, (Transcendental Consciousness, the Self of everyone). How can we know Atma? Maharishi said we can know it through sound, the first sound of Rk VedaA. Everything is contained in Aall values of silence and dynamism. Veda is the Constitution of the Universe. Maharishi elaborated, saying that we can add one adjective to the Constitution of the Universe. We can say that the Veda is the lively Constitution of the Universe. When we say the lively Constitution of the Universe, then we step onto one more phraseLight of God. And when we say Light of God, then we say almighty, omnipresent, omniscient Light of God. Maharishi went on to commend Dr Reiner Picha for his model and presentation of Veda in the human physiology. (The 40 major areas of human physiology have a one-to-one correlation in structure and function to the structure and function of the 40 aspects of the Veda and Vedic Literature. Dr Picha's life-sized, transparent model of the human body, with the framework of the skeleton and organs visible within it, demonstrates this correlation. When a specific aspect of the Veda is recited, the corresponding areas of the body light up on the model.) This is the first display of its kind. It gives a vision of the secrets of how the body functions based on the movements of consciousness. Veda is understood now for all its valuesthat means total abstraction, one unbounded ocean of consciousness, the transcendental reality. Maharishi emphasized the importance of this transcendental reality in the GAPS between the sounds of the Veda. The secret of the relationship between the tenth Mandala of Rk Veda and

TM in the News There was a great article about Maharishi Vedic Architecture in American Way Magazine, a free magazine on all American Airlines flights. http://americanwaymag.com/aw/lifestyle/feature.asp?archive_date=7/15/2005 *** David Lynch's inauguration of a foundation to make the Transcendental Meditation technique available to students and to create world peace has made major headlines. This excellent inteview appeared on the Newsweek web site: The Magic of Meditation - Newsweek Health Beat - MSNBC.com http://www.msnbc.msn.com/id/8701267/site/newsweek *** The Chronicle of Higher Education also covered this. From the issue dated August 5, 2005 Filmmaker Wants Students to Chill Out With Transcendental Meditation By ERIC HOOVER In the late 1960s, college students closed their eyes, expanded their minds, and made meditation a fad on campuses. Now David Lynch wants them to do it again. In July Mr. Lynch, director of the films Blue Velvet, Eraserhead, and Mulholland Drive, announced the establishment of the David Lynch Foundation for Consciousness-Based Education and World Peace, an organization that will promote the mental and physical benefits of Transcendental Meditation. Mr. Lynch, who says he has shut his eyes and entered the field of oneness twice each day for 32 years, plans to begin a speaking tour of 50 colleges this fall to tout meditation as a tool for overcoming anxiety and stress. It's an ingredient that's missing from education, he says. The Indian guru Maharishi Mahesh Yogi introduced Transcendental Meditation, known as diving within, a half-century ago (and later taught the Beatles his method for chilling out). The mental technique is practiced silently for 15 to 20 minutes twice a day. Researchers have found that it can reduce high blood pressure and improve brain function, among other health benefits. Proponents say meditating also can raise students' academic performance and foster creativity. Students who meditate achieve a state of relaxed alertness that helps them complete assignments more easily, says William R. Stixrud, a clinical neuropsychologist based in Silver Spring, Md., and a member of the foundation's Board of Advisers. Mr. Lynch's own descriptions of Transcendental Meditation are no less imaginative than his films, in which time does strange things and symbols leap out of the unconscious. Meditating, he says, is a dive into pure creativity that has helped him realize his artistic potential, a portal to the source of love, consciousness, creativity, and power that in a mere two weeks transformed him from an angry man to a happy fellow. It is this light you turn on that gets rid of negativity, he says. 'Bright, Shiny Pennies' Mr. Lynch believes that frazzled high-school and college students are in need of such a light because of academic pressures, fatigue, and stress. He imagines a world in which each student has one class period a day to experience silence and bliss. Recently some elementary and secondary schools have started after-school meditation programs. Some colleges, too, offer meditation instruction. Gregory Kuhlman, director of the counseling program at Brooklyn College of the City University of New York, says his staff suggests meditation and other relaxation training to some students to help them manage anxiety. Mr. Lynch became convinced that the practice could benefit young adults after attending a series of skits performed by high-school students who had learned meditation at Maharishi University of Management, in Fairfield, Iowa. They seemed like bright, shiny pennies, he says of the actors. There was a consciousness that came off them that I never had seen. The foundation, which he established with his own money, intends to finance meditation classes for students as well as institutional research on the physiological effects of the technique. Bob Roth, the foundation's program director and a meditation instructor, says the group will seek to raise

Expenses have increased; TM maven Dr. John Hagelin needed only $4.2 million in 1993 to bring 4,000 TM'ers to Washington, D.C., to allegedly reduce crime for eight weeks, and... more at: [requires sign in] http://www.mercurynews.com/mld/mercurynews/news/weird_news/12403101.htm -- Yahoo!

[FairfieldLife] press report on skelmersdale quotes paul mason
The Town That Lost Its Guru Story from REDNOVA NEWS: http://www.rednova.com/news/display/?id=210725 Published: 2005/08/17 06:00:00 CDT With eyes tight shut, legs crossed and mind meandering, I briefly flirt with inner peace. Beneath a golden dome that is the British centre for the teachings of a mystical guru from the East, the time has come to dabble with the power of meditation. For a moment it seems like paradise. Then my eyes flicker, the faith fades and I remember that I am in Skelmersdale, Lancashire. Strange though it may seem, this new town of a thousand roundabouts is the European home to the followers of the man whose cosmic notions so entranced The Beatles in the 1960s: the Maharishi Mahesh Yogi. Here they came to deploy the force of transcendental meditation (TM), to find personal happiness and to make the world a better place. Now, though, a dark cloud casts its shadow over the Maharishi's British flock. The UK, the 95- year-old sage claims, has become a 'Scorpion nation', and meditative teachings merely serve to 'feed the destroyer of the world'. The Maharishi, it seems, is rather ticked off about the Iraq War and the arms trade. Teaching TM must cease in the UK immediately, he has ordered. 'We are rejecting one nation Britain which has proven to be a poisonous, divisive influence in the world family,' the leader blasts in a memo issued to his Global Country of World Peace recently. It all seems slightly hard on his followers in Skelmersdale, who set up base here 25 years ago and have built up a 400-strong community. Some of the people here wonder why their home country has been singled out and the US left alone, and a few have even mooted the previously unthinkable: disobeying the legendary figure and carrying on teaching. 'He is deeply upset about the arms trade,' says David Hughes, one of the founder members of the community, explaining that Britain, per head of population, actually has a worse record than anywhere else in the world. 'This is an issue we are all very concerned about.' Teaching meditation in the UK, it seems, could foster energies that make the situation worse. If the community has to cease such activities, then it will be for the greater good. But the rest of Skelmersdale is slightly nervous too, for they've grown rather fond of the Yogic fliers over the years. With meditation has come an award-winning school, a gym, a business centre and new houses. The Maharishi's men and women have injected cash into the local economy and some even claim their presence has revitalised it. Now the Yogics are being urged to flee for larger, better- funded settlements abroad. 'When we first came in 1980 things were really bleak,' explains Hughes, a Lancashire man by birth. Hughes and a handful of other devotees opted for Skelmersdale over other new towns because the rents were cheap and it was near the heart of Britain, offering easy access from Scotland and the Southeast. At the time, very few other operations viewed it as a viable centre. 'Now you can hardly find any spare business space. If you want to set up here you have to build from scratch.' It has even been suggested that their communal meditation reversed the crime rate in the nearby Merseyside area from being one of the worst in the UK to being among the best although Hughes concedes that he still doesn't leave his car unattended in Liverpool at night. He admits that the general upturn is not entirely down to the power of meditation, but believes that it has been a significant force. And the economy certainly needed a boost. In the 1960s, Skem as it is affectionately known locally survived the decline of the mining industry only to be turned into a concrete jungle. Its reward was to be used as an overspill town to resettle crowded Merseyside. Industrial employers proceeded to leave the town en masse, and the only growth figures related to crime, drug abuse and poverty. But, as Hughes points out, things have been looking a little better of late. We depart the dome for a tour of the town. 'It was originally proposed that it should have a population of 80,000,' he says. 'But it's only really got up to 40,000.' Similarly, the meditation community needs to have 800 members to affect the way the country lives, claims Hughes. With it languishing at just 400 it could not possibly oust the Blair government and move the UK towards the goal the Maharishi sets for all his communities bringing peace to the world. So now they face the prospect that their teachers will heed the guru's order to depart to the likes of South Africa and the United States. But Hughes says that does not mean the end of the road for Skelmersdale. 'Just because we cannot teach TM for the moment, does not mean that we will go away. It is like riding a bike: once you've had your four lessons you can keep doing it. Maharishi hasn't told us to stop meditating, only to stop teaching it.' Hughes, who first
[FairfieldLife] Indian press: Bush gets some unorthodox advice
Deccan Herald » News Update » Detailed Story From L K Sharma DH News Service, WASHINGTON: http://www.deccanherald.com/deccanherald/aug202005/update76492005820.asp Bush gets some unorthodox advice The anti-war activists, Islamic believers, communists, and liberals should know that if the world is in a mess it is not the fault of Bush and Blair. It is because their offices face an inauspicious direction. A US-based quantum physicist has discovered the secret of world peace. All will be well if the south-facing entrances to the White House and 10 Downing Street are closed. He claims no credit for this discovery but attributes it to India’s unpatented traditional knowledge -- Vedic architecture. Dr John Hagelin, President of what he calls the US Peace Government, has told both Mr George Bush and Mr Tony Blair that they should close the south-facing entrances. This will be a stop-gap arrangement and later they must move to properly designed buildings. Improper design of government buildings promotes disorderly thinking and infighting, he says. Sceptics may say that the US has done quite well over the decades despite the White House entrance facing an inauspicious direction. But Dr Hagelin has perhaps the world’s welfare in mind. In fact, he wants all the leaders of wold to check their buildings. They should flee such buildings as if these have been hit by an earthquake, he says. Dr Hagelin says the south-facing entrances are having deleterious effects on their brain functioning and orderliness of thinking. If they shut these entrances, they will make wiser, more intelligent decisions for their people and the world. Dr Hagelin wants the Indian government to abandon the Parliament buildings in New Delhi because of their skewed entrances. Perhaps Dr Hagelin knows that the Indian Prime Ministers have been working in an office that does not face south, though it is called South Block. Dr Hagelin says “divisive and destructive government policies will become more coherent and harmonious overnight if government leaders live and work in buildings that are properly designed according to the principles of ancient Vedic architect are in harmony with natural law.” Bush and Blair may ignore this advice at their own peril at a time when they are not sailing smoothly. Dr Hagelin has urged government leaders to replace the old buildings with properly oriented, “fortune-creating” offices and residences that face the rising sun in the east. Such buildings will promote harmony and success for the government, and peace and prosperity for the nation. Dr Hagelin claims recent medical research shows a marked improvement in the efficiency of neuronal functioning when the head is oriented towards the east compared to the south. The positive effects of a proper eastern orientation on the brain and behaviour are being documented by science. He says Vedic architecture has been revived by Maharishi Mahesh Yogi. About one billion dollars have been invested in the design and construction of Vedic homes and office buildings worldwide in the past decade. Maharishi Mahesh Yogi recently launched his Global Reconstruction Programme for Permanent World Peace, and is inviting builders in every country to immediately begin constructing in every city, Peace Colonies of homes and office buildings, as well as Peace Palaces to teach Transcendental Meditation. The advice to Mr Bush and Mr Blair is based on some research and not on mumbo-jumbo. Vedic architecture has already made a beginning and some users of the buildings have claimed a remarkable improvement in their well-being. The architects and builders, all followers of Maharshi Mahesh Yogi, present their work at professional organisations and are heard with great interest. They have been joined by some neuroscientists. According to architect Jonathan Lipman, Vedic architecture promotes well-being, health and success and makes the inhabitants feel more energetic and positive. Mr Lipman, chief architect of Maharshi Global Construction, told a gathering at the National Building museum recently that homes built on the principles of Vedic architecture become conduits of cosmic energy. Those who dwell in such houses are happy, healthy and at peace, he said while showing slides. A builder, Jeffrey Abramson, said his life changed when he moved to his new house designed as per the Vedic specifications. He and his wife practice Transcendental Meditation daily. “I felt my handcuffs had been taken off”. Mr Abramson is putting his money where his mouth is and building a 72-million dollar building project in Maryland, based on the Vedic principles. While this traditional wisdom has come from india, some in India tend to pooh-pooh things like Vedic mathematics. However, in America as the believers challenge the theory of evolution, there is a measure of acceptance of even Christian physics
[FairfieldLife] MUM's message to alumni
From: Jennine Fellmer [EMAIL PROTECTED] Date: Fri, 26 Aug 2005 01:06:40 PM PDT Subject: Reconstructing the World Dear Alumni and Friends, 1400 fortunate people attended Maharishi's Guru Purnima Celebration this year in Meru, Holland. The event far exceeded anyone's expectations. It was as if Maharishi was offering the lives of everyone there to the lotus feet of Guru Dev. It felt and looked like Heaven on Earth. There were beautiful white tents everywhere, the kind used for Presidential inaugurations, decorated with red carpets, chandeliers, comfortable red velvet chairs, and banquet halls filled with a variety of dishes and desserts served by professional caterers. Outside raised walkways were constructed between the tents, covered in green carpet and decorated with small flowering trees. In the central area a pond was created with flowers floating on the water. Children collected precious stones around the grounds and greeted you at the dining entrance with their colorful displays. At around 3:30 or 4:00 each afternoon a variety of delicious Indian treats and snacks were distributed in all the tents. All the Rajas sat with His Majesty MahaRaj Nadar Raam, and the Prime Minister of the Global Country of World Peace, our dear President Dr. Bevan Morris, and other Ministers each day discussing the implementation of Maharishi's programs around the world. Maharishi frequently remarked how wonderful it was to sit and think globally with our world family. During the Guru Purnima Day Maharishi instructed Bevan to tell people where we stand in time. The year is 1,955,855,107. Another perspective is Yudisthir of the Pandavas which is the year 5,143. In Shankar Samvatsar, time since Ati Shankaracharya established the four Mats, the Northern Mat - Jyotir Mat, the time counted from him is year 2,513. And then Maharishi Samvatsar is year 50. It was during this day that Maharishi launched his Global Reconstruction Program and invited builders in every country to begin building Peace Colonies in every city composed of fortune- creating homes, and Peace Palaces, where Maharishi's Transcendental Meditation and other Vedic-science-based programs will be taught to promote enlightenment for the individual and permanent peace for the world. Many of Europe's top builders came to the Rajas Tent to meet with the Rajas and His Excellency Dr. Eike Hartmann to commit their time and resources toward this project. During this week's Global Press Conference, Bevan gave a beautiful summary of Maharishi's desires for the world that were laid out during the Guru Purnima celebration. He said that globally we want a grand unified world. This hope has come in the midst of Maharishi's analysis of the history of the world. Government is based upon man-made laws instead of the laws that run the universe - the Constitution of the Universe. The result is a never-ending search for a better administration. The present system of government, democracy, has proven to be a divider of nations and a failure to provide solutions to the problems and suffering of society. Yet when we speak to governments and show them using scientific evidence how that system is failing, they have deaf ears. Maharishi explains that these leaders have subjected themselves to drugs, alcohol, poisonous foods and medications. In addition, the buildings where they reside and work are damaging to their fortune, clarity of thought, and ability to understand. Maharishi says it is like they are running into a fire and he is telling them don't do it, don't run into the gates of hell. But this is related to the destiny of the world -as you sow, so shall you reap. Maharishi has always done what ever he can to help change that. 50 years ago he started teaching the Transcendental Meditation program to the entire human race so that every adult and student can experience all possibilities in their own awareness. This experience alone awakens the total functioning of the brain. From our own experience as alumni, we know habituating our self to that unbounded ocean of consciousness, the field in which the whole universe is floating, creates the most powerful thinking. With more and more people learning Transcendental Meditation and the TM-Sidhi program the coherence in national consciousness will raise to a level where government leaders will begin to make better decisions. But the other thing Maharishi is focusing on and he invites us to help is to reconstruct the world according to the principals of Vedic Architecture in harmony with Natural Law (www.GlobalReconstruction.org). Build everyone a lucky house, a house that promotes good fortune and will transform the lives of the people in these houses. When a house is not built according to the proper cardinal directions aligned to true north, south, east, west, then wrong layout of a home offends the harmony of nature. When every day you offend the harmony of nature,
[FairfieldLife] TM/Longer-Life study picked up by mainstream ABC News
http://abcnews.go.com/Health/wireStory?id=721613 Meditation calms the mind, lengthens life: study Reuters May. 2, 2005 - By Charnicia E. Huggins NEW YORK (Reuters Health) - Increasing evidence suggests that transcendental meditation may not only reduce stress, but also may help adults with high blood pressure to live longer, according to a new study. "There are many non-drug techniques for reducing blood pressure, but none...extend life," study author Dr. Robert H. Schneider, of the Maharishi University of Management in Iowa, told Reuters Health. He added that the current study shows that "you can live longer with a mind-body intervention." Transcendental meditation is a technique for calming the body and mind, to allow individuals to enter a state of "restful alertness," in which the body is awake but the mind is not engaged in conscious thought. It is a method of "waking up the body's own self-repair mechanisms," Schneider said. The new report, published in this month's American Journal of Cardiology, is based on a review of data from two studies that showed that transcendental meditation helped decrease blood pressure among white and African-American adults, respectively. Schneider and his team evaluated the association between the meditation technique and risk of death among the study participants. The two studies included 202 men and women, about 72 years old on average, who had pre-hypertension or mild hypertension. They were assigned to a transcendental meditation group, or to various comparison groups of other relaxation techniques. Participants in the two studies were followed for about eight years on average -- a maximum of nearly 19 years -- during which 101 individuals died. Overall, men and women who practiced transcendental meditation not only had lower blood pressures than those in the other groups, but were also 23 percent less likely to die from any cause, Schneider and his team report. In particular, they were 30 percent less likely to die from cardiovascular disease and 49 percent less likely to die from cancer. The "integrated holistic" transcendental meditation technique does not have any harmful side effects, Schneider said. Schneider is the director of the Institute for Natural Medicine and Prevention, funded by the National Institutes of Health's National Center for Complementary and Alternative Medicine.

After I was kicked out, I have been initiating openly outside the TMO sometimes for a little money sometimes for free. That made a lot of noise from the TMO, with threats, lawyers, you name it. I won - the TMO lost. I am very happy i am curious, in what sense did you win over the TMO? was it a moral victory where you just persevered and nobody was gonna stop you? or was it a legal victory, setting a legal precedent for independent TM teaching. a friend of mine has been teaching TM at the old rates for quite some time, and he is always busy initiating new people. i would like to tell him about your legal victory, if thats what you meant ;-) g.
