[FairfieldLife] True Attention

[turquoiseb]

This post never "came back" from the Yahoo! black hole yesterday, so
I'll try again because I had so much fun writing it...


Overheard in a cafe on Ile Saint-Louis this morning:

"Saul? Is that you? How amazing to run into you here in Paris. What are
you doing here?"

"Knock it off, Morty. I saw you earlier stalking me outside my hotel,
and following me here. You probably stalked me here all the way from
L.A. What do you want?"

"That was *your* hotel? I wasn't stalking you...I was...uh...just
looking through the garbage cans to see whether Parisians recycle. Yeah,
that's the ticket."

"Cut to the chase, Morty. What the fuck do you want?"

"I want to pitch you a story idea for a new series, Saul. I know that
you're interested in new ideas, original ideas, so I'm bringing it to
you first, even though a bunch of other producers are already bugging me
about it."

"Yeah, right. But OK, I'm in a good mood, and the *real* writer I'm
waiting for isn't due for a few minutes, so you've got that long to give
me your 'elevator pitch.'"

"Thanks, Saul. I call it 'True Attention.' It's a story about a bunch of
vampires who live in Faux Temps, Iowa and survive by sucking attention
from other people."

"Iowa? It sounds more like L.A."

"Yeah, we could probably set it in L.A. if you wanted. Anyway, the main
character is named Nookie Snackhouse, and she's *not* a vamp. But she is
half fey...sort of a closet fey...and she has this ability to read
people's minds, and know what their real thoughts and intentions are
even better than the people whose minds she's reading do."

"She sounds like a real pain in the ass. But go on...where do the vamps
fit into all of this?"

"Well, first, they're not real vamps, like in that other series that
this one is nothing like. They don't feed on blood or anything. Instead,
just as you noted, they feed off of attention. Being unable to generate
any kind of energy themselves, they suck it from other people by getting
them to focus on them."

"So how do they do this? Do they, for example, stalk these victims whose
attention they want to steal halfway around the world and corner them in
a sidewalk cafe?"

"No, no...nothing like that. Heh heh...good one, Saul. What they do,
since none of these attention vamps have actually ever DONE anything in
their lives that would attract the attention they feed off of, they get
people to focus on them by insulting them, trying to portray them as
stupid, and calling them names."

"And that works?"

"More than you might think. Many of the vamps in Faux Temps have been
running this number for *years*, and have managed to get a *lot* of
people to focus on them and give them their attention so that they can
feed off of it. And all without ever DOING anything to deserve that
attention in the first place."

"I don't get it...they accomplish all this just by insulting people?"

"Not *just* insulting people. Sometimes they make up stories about
themselves and try to convince others that those stories are real. For
example, they brag about their 'endarkenment,' or imply that they're
successes in life even though they've never been anything but wage
slaves. That's where Nookie comes in."

"The suspense is killing me. Do tell..."

"Well, as I said, Nookie is *not* one of these vamps per se, and in fact
is even less interesting than they are and has DONE even less in her
life than they have, but she can read their thoughts and so she knows
when they're bullshitting to attract attention and when they're not."

"Aha. So she busts them when she catches them lying?"

"No, not at all. That's the twist. She ignores their bullshit, and
instead praises them so that they'll focus on HER. When they do that,
she sucks *their* attention. So in effect, she's got all these attention
vampires *working for her*, stealing attention and energy from other
people, and then passing it along to her by focusing on her. Brilliant,
right?"

"Sounds boring to me. Who on earth would tune in each week to watch a
bunch of people who have never DONE anything in their lives try to suck
attention, as if they were the center of the universe?"

"Hey, Saul...don't knock it...it worked for 'Seinfeld.'"

"Good point."

"So? Ya interested?"

"Not really. Got anything else?"

"Well, I am working on another completely original treatment called
'Freaking Mad.' It's about a mild-mannered meditation teacher who starts
selling black-market enlightenment..."

"Nice talking to you, Morty. But I see a real writer approaching, so
buzz off. Give my secretary a call when you get back to L.A. We won't do
lunch."

Ah, feeling desperate?  I could have pointed out your non-sequitur.  I 
was talking about urgent care units not heart attacks.  IOW, around here 
it might be just as expedient to walk into an urgent care unit where 
they can decide where you should go (ER is often just around the 
corner).  And if we had medical care that was worth a shit, John 
probably could have simple gone to a neighborhood clinic to sort things 
out.  But no those are folding.  In Turqland, he could have a doctor 
drop by the house too.


And I don't agree with empty.  There is no reason that a nurse 
practitioner can't sort out things for you.


My employees used to see a doctor every time they got the sniffles just 
because they had "free heathcare."  Well, they didn't have free health 
care.  If we didn't have that benefit we could have paid them more.


And when was the last time you heard of someone getting a medical 
scholarship to become a doctor?  In this country it is about pedigree 
not any ability or interest in medicine.  What a commercial piece of 
crap our medical system is.


And in case you forgot, my tantra teacher passed away last October from 
congestive heart failure.  He DID go to the hospital twice for heart 
attacks.  Didn't help much did it?  Doctors and hospitals are more 
interested in making money than helping you. In fact they want to help 
themselves to your bank account.

No, that wouldn't necessarily be "Urgent Care." Not all
hospitals have a separate walk-in service; or it may be part
of the overall ER service.


But more importantly, for something like chest pain, you are
not competent to judge whether it's an emergency. You just go
to the ER and let them take it from there. You don't spend
time wandering around trying to find Urgent Care (especially
at night when an Urgent Care service may not even be open).

Yeah.I know. I think it's that I was incorrectly labeled an extrovert as a 
child; based on Ravi's post of the other day, I am confirming what I always 
thought; in fact I am an introvert.  All these years spent trying to be an 
extrovert; so stressful it has been. I can probably stop unstressing about it 
all now online and retreat into my den for a little inner child work.  Smile.

himself, after one too many haystacks, in the stomach, and the reason he picked

cobalt blue and chrome yellow he had been tasting to make sure the

Things are probably different here than on the East Coast.  Of course if

with the HMO which is what Kaiser is.  Our medical system is all screwed

Re: [FairfieldLife] RE: RE: RE: Military Solution to Syria Is Futile: Pope Francis

[Bhairitu]

FYI, that would be "Urgent Care".  ER is for emergencies.  Urgent Care 
is for walk-ins.  I went to one Christmas Day of 2007 because I had 
slammed my finger in the car door and I wanted to make sure it was done 
right.  The doctor (who was Chinese) only wanted to send me home and 
take Tylenol.  I told here I would prefer draining the buildup under the 
fingernail. She went ahead and got a tiny drill bit and was a bit 
surprised that there was enough pressure to spurt out the blood.  
Tylenol would not have done but I think she was trying to save me the 
"surgical bill" which was all of $60.  I had actually gone there the 
afternoon the day before but they were so busy suggested I come back on 
Christmas Day and I was surprised they would be open.


I hope there is no next time but if so I now know that just drilling a 
little hole in the nail will solve the problem.  There are even videos 
on YouTube for this.

Judy,

Thanks for your concern.  I was thinking of doing that last night. 
 Now, I'm trying to see the connection between my ankle sprain and the 
heartburn.  And, I can see the pattern revealed by jyotish as I 
explained to Bhairitu.  I'm pretty much under control right now.  I'll 
just have watch what I'm eating.  I'll keep you guys posted with my 
progress.


By the way, my ankle sprain is getting better.  I used an ice pack to 
cure it.  So, thanks to Dr.D, Share, and Ann for their help on that 
regard. I'm walking fairly normal now, although a bit gingerly.

I did some yoga asanas a few minutes ago to see what would happen.  I 
feel a little relieved but the stress is still there in the chest. 
 I'm a bit apprehensive of checking myself into Kaiser Permanente 
Hospital and subject myself to their misdiagnoses, which I vividly

that it's due to the Mars transit in Cancer which has the Sun and

I'm now wearing my red coral ring to see if that would relieve the

Here's what I've found  so far.  On my Windows 7 machine with Firefox it 
was showing Neo.  Then I logged in and it went back to the old site 
design.  I logged out and it still showed the old site.  Yahoo is afraid

Lynx is absolutely text only, so CSS would have nothing to work on as 
there are zero graphics, zero pictures, and zero video. This browser 
is a great way to see just how much information on a web site is 
really visible to a search engine, though Google, Yahoo, etc., are 
trying to find ways to read content created by scripts or put in 
images and in video.


Did you take a look at the source on the Neo pages?  There's some 
embedded CSS and even some embedded JavaScript.  Very definitely a 
work in progress.


I ran the Ubuntu Studio 12.04 Live DVD on my Windows 7 machine and 
Firefox there brought up the Neo version.  So I logged out of FFL on 
Firefox here where Ubuntu Studio 12.04 is installed and Neo came up 
for groups.  Logged back in and the old site design came up.  Hilarious.

I'm now wearing my red coral ring to see if that would relieve the problem.  
I'll let you know the outcome.

But relating to the US national chart, Cancer is the 8th house and has Rahu and

IMO, Pope Francis' solution appears to be the quickest and cheapest way to 
solve the problem.  If he can pull it off, he would be considered heaven sent.

Wait just one minute - if all the others are the 'sheeple',

Sheeple refers to people who aren't paying attention and just doing as 
they are told.  That doesn't mean those who are paying attention and 
questioning authority are "elites".

InfoWars has Libertarians, Liberals, Progressives and Conservatives,

I am getting the new interface on all my computers and browsers on 
Windows 7 and Windows XP machines. Internet Explorer (back to version 
8), Firefox, Chrome, SeaMonkey, Opera, the last version of Safari for 
Windows before Apple stopped development, and even Lynx, a Windows

even though it cannot display it graphically or run JavaScript. I 
still have some trouble using browsers on an Android tablet.




Lynx probably doesn't know about CSS which came along later.  That's the

Lynx is absolutely text only, so CSS would have nothing to work on as

Did you take a look at the source on the Neo pages?  There's some

As I've probably mentioned before, this month in Paris I'm staying on Ãle 
Saint-Louis, which along with the Ãle de la Cité is one of the two natural 
islands in the Seine. (There is a third, called Ãle aux Cygnes, but it's 
artificial, and does little more than provide a home for swans and the smaller 
prototype of the Statue Of Liberty.) 

When I mention that I'm staying on Ãle Saint-Louis, Parisians look at me the 
way Los Angelenos might if I'd told them I lived in Beverly Hills. Their 
impressions of the place are that it's full of rich, snooty people, the only 
ones who can afford the million-Euro apartments there. Having been here for a 
week or so, I beg to differ. There may, in fact, *be* a bunch of rich, snooty 
types living here, but I never see them on the streets. Maybe they're like 
rich, snooty people in other cities, and only appear on the streets long enough 
to be picked up by their limos and whisked off somewhere else, but I actually 
see fewer of them here than I might in areas of the VIth or VIIth 
arrondissements. The folks I run into in cafés and restaurants (and, you will 
see if you keep reading, ice cream joints) are pretty normal, everyday French 
people, *not* ostentatiously rich, and remarkably fun to interact with. 

The island itself is small, and looks kinda like this:


There are really only three streets, and little traffic. There are a few art 
galleries and stores, two small markets, a number of bars and restaurants. And 
unlike the rest Paris -- which seems to have a church on every corner, as if 
the population could not endure being more than a block away from one in case 
they suddenly develop the need to either pray or donate money to God (whom we 
all know needs it so badly) -- there is only one large church, 
Saint-Louis-en-l'Ãle. 

The island is named for Saint Louis, otherwise known as King Louis IX of 
France. He's the only French king recognized by the Catholic Church as a saint, 
and not being Catholic myself, I'm not sure what he did to deserve this, but I 
suspect that he is the patron saint of ice cream. 

Ãle Saint-Louis is home to Berthillon, which serves what is rightly considered 
the Best Ice Cream In Paris. 


It started as one small establishment, but now there are at least a dozen other 
restaurants on the island that advertise its ice creams on their signs and 
awnings. Naturally, market forces being what they are, a number of wannabee 
competitors have appeared on the island as well, selling *their* brands of ice 
cream, and trying to lure away some of the people who come here daily for their 
ice cream fix. Ice cream is so much a part of this island's culture that I hear 
they even use tiny Berthillon cones in the Saint-Louis-en-l'Ãle Church instead 
of communion wafers. 

All of this makes me remember one of my favorite TM stories, which I have 
related here before (and which actually happened to a former poster here), but 
which I will shamelessly tell again, because I think it captures so much about 
the TM mindset. This guy, a TM Governor of the Age of Enlightenment whom we'll 
call Joe, was on an ATR course in Europe, and found that he just couldn't 
stomach the hot milk with cardamom he was expected to drink each night after 
the meeting to speed him on his way to catching the Angel Train. 

So he developed an alternative routine, walking out the door of his hotel and 
into the café across the street, where he ordered an ice cream cone. He then 
took it back to his room and ate it there. 

At a certain point on this course, This Guy We're Calling Joe suddenly received 
a summons to appear before the Inquisition. They didn't call it that, of 
course, but when he walked into the room and saw the row of course leaders 
wearing their cheap suits and their standard-issue German scowls, he knew he 
was in Deep Shit.

They proceeded to lecture him about his Off The Program behavior, and 
threatened to not only send him home from the course if he didn't cut it out, 
but to put a black mark on his "permanent record" so that he'd never be 
accepted to any course in the future. At first he was concerned, as any 
red-blooded TM TB might be as such a terrible karmic prospect, but then he had 
a kind of satori experience. 

He suddenly realized that he was sitting in a room being grilled by a bunch of 
Bliss Nazis and being threatened *for the Sin Of Eating Ice Cream*. He sta

It's like a long standing disease that's infected the
Middle East.

Now the religious radicals have hijacked the Arab Spring
and there's a proxy war going on in Syria by Iran. It's a
civil war - a clash between Arabs and Islamic sectarians.

It's probably the beginning of the end for countries like
Iran, Iraq, Jordan, Syria, and Saudi Arabia. It will be
just like the Iraq-Iran war only much bigger.

If it's just a regional war there will probably be no
winners. When it's over in ten years or so, all the lines
that were drawn in the sand after WW I will have been
redrawn.

According to David Brooks, the U.S. has three options:

1. Containment - "Trying to keep each nation's civil
strife within it's own borders..."

2. Reconciliation - diplomatic peace between Iran and
Saudi Arabia - between Shiites and Sunnis

3. Neutrality - taking sides is not an effective long
term option

Been there, done that, and I still get the old interface. Cleared

[FairfieldLife] Fall

[turquoiseb]

As much as the lecher in me has appreciated the summer (French women in
summer dresses are just the BEST), the artist in me is already looking
forward to Fall.

It's my favorite season, the one in which the world's cycles seem most
in evidence. Plants fade and fall in on themselves to sleep for a while,
before awakening as seeds. Squirrels start to store food and bears start
looking for a cool cave to hibernate in. Americans swap their baseball
hats for football hats.

Me, I just look forward to being able to walk through forests that are
doing their color-dance thang. Vincent Van Gogh painted down in Arles,
where there really isn't much of a Fall, and he got off on the
color-dance anyway. Can you imagine what he might have painted if his
brother hadn't been such a cheapskate and had sprung for a Fall vacation
for him in Vermont? The mind boggles.

As much as it may mean that the women will be wearing more clothing (a
negative), I look forward to seeing and appreciating their selection of
Fall colors (a positive). They're usually more subtle, more refined and
'earthy' than the fashion colors of Spring and Summer.

Anyway, I'm just sitting here in one of my old cafe haunts in Saint
Michel, before walking back to Ile Saint-Louis, and noticing that the
trees across the street at the Cluny museum are already beginning to
turn. And it's not even technically Fall yet. Maybe they know something
we don't about the coming Winter.

Whatever. For those of you who also love Fall, here's Bruce Cockburn's
song of the season. It was originally written immediately after reading
a book of Robert Graves' poetry, and reflects some of that poet's
sensibilities. But it still 'captures' Fall for me. I first heard this
song live, before Bruce had even released his first album, in Toronto,
and during the Fall. It's been my 'soundtrack' for the season ever
since.

[FairfieldLife] Memo to self

Don't fall into the Seine on the way home. Just sayin'...  :-)

Testicle-biting fish found in Paris could be on way to UK
  [Grin a bear it ... the nasty end of a pacu]

THE Pacu, a fish dubbed the 'ball-cutter' because it has reportedly 
bitten off men's testicles, has been found in Paris and there are fears 
it could be making its way to the UK.

The small piranha-like fish was found in European waters for the first 
time in August with experts warning men to keep their trunks on if 
swimming in the Øresund channel between Denmark and Sweden.

Now the pacu has been found in the River Seine, The Paris Prefecture of 
Police newsletter revealed on Tuesday. Although officers were skeptical 
of the tropical catch, its human-like teeth marked the species as the 
feared 'testicle eating' pacu.

Fish expert Henrik Carl told the Local earlier in August: "The pacu is 
not normally dangerous to people but it has quite a serious bite. There 
have been incidents in other countries, such as Papua New Guinea where 
some men have had their testicles bitten off.

"They bite because they're hungry, and testicles sit nicely in their
mouth."

The pacu, a relative of the piranha that is commonly found around the 
Amazon, can grow to up to 90cm and weigh in at a staggering 25kg. 
Fishermen in South America attacked by the pacu have reportedly bled to 
death after losing their testicles in the fish's vicious teeth.

The fish are found in most rivers in the Amazon and Orinoco basins in 
South America and have also been spotted in Papua New Guinea, where they
are believed to have been introduced in order to boost fish stocks.

Re: [FairfieldLife] Military Solution to Syria Is Futile: Pope Francis

John, sorry to read about your bad night last night. Hope you feel better 
today. Also I've noticed that sometimes holy days can be very purifying and 
last night was the beginning of Rosh Hashanah. I bet you'll sleep better 
tonight. That post of yours has not arrived in my inbox yet, but I saw it in 
Message View.

[FairfieldLife] More Yahoo! "features"

[turquoiseb]

Just so y'all know it's not just you Chosen Few who have been selected
to be the early-adopter beta testers for Neo who are suffering, the old
interface has gone bonkers, too. For some reason (probably the fact that
the French very vocally resist being used as guinea pigs for untested
software), I'm still on the old interface. It switches over
periodically, but then the minute I log in, it switches me back to the
Old Favorite.

But it's not. *It* keeps changing and freaking out, too. Whatever the
Yahoo! pseudo-developers are doing to Neo, it's affecting the old
interface, too. The quoting of text only works about half the time. And
today at least three posts I've made have disappeared into the Black
Hole Of Yahoo!, never to reappear.

Those who don't like my posts may interpret this more as the functioning
of the Laws Of Nature than another fuckup on the part of Yahoo! Then
again, why would those who don't like my posts be reading them, far
enough to read this? How does *that* fit into the Laws Of Nature?  :-)

Working as I do inside another Incredibly Big Machine
of a corporation, I agree. There would have more people
who would have had to add their ego-signatures to the
sign-off, too. :-)

But ya really got to hand it to Yahoo! What other tech
company is able to do away with QA personnel entirely,
and use their end users as beta testers?  :-)

You're not even making any sense. If you sent a nuke to
Saudi Arabia, you guys out there in CA wouldn't have any
fuel. Your whole state would become one big parking lot.

And that wouldn't stop the killing in Syria.

There's only one way to stop the killing in Syria - boots
on the ground. The United Nations should send in troops
TODAY in order to prevent the WMD from falling into the
wrong hands.

If some of the WMD gets lost and finds it's way to New

It's like a long standing disease that's infected the 
Middle East. 

Now the religious radicals have hijacked the Arab Spring 
and there's a proxy war going on in Syria by Iran. It's a 
civil war - a clash between Arabs and Islamic sectarians. 

It's probably the beginning of the end for countries like 
Iran, Iraq, Jordan, Syria, and Saudi Arabia. It will be
just like the Iraq-Iran war only much bigger.

If it's just a regional war there will probably be no 
winners. When it's over in ten years or so, all the lines 
that were drawn in the sand after WW I will have been 
redrawn. 

According to David Brooks, the U.S. has three options:

1. Containment - "Trying to keep each nation's civil 
strife within it's own borders..."

2. Reconciliation - diplomatic peace between Iran and 
Saudi Arabia - between Shiites and Sunnis

3. Neutrality - taking sides is not an effective long 
term option

Yeah, I've read this story at least six times on Usenet.

You really do like ice cream, Turq! 

But, what is really funny is  - what it's like to be on 
a TMO ATR over in Switzerland. But, at least YOU can say 
you learned yoga in downtown L.A. and on a beach hotel 
over in Spain. Go figure.

You and the guy in the story would probably last about 
ten minutes in an average Zen meditation retreat!

You need to face the facts, Turq - a TMO ATR is just
about as intensive as a day at a Butlin's Holiday 
Camp with hot milk served in the evening. LoL!

Not to mention how you're going to select which flavor
of ice cream you want at Berthillon. The list contains
something like 50 flavors, including standards like
vanilla and chocolate, but also including more rare 
concoctions like ice creams made from flowers -- violet,
lavender, etc. 

If you're *completely* "in the present," how would you
remember that you like chocolate but don't like tutti-

Tony Parsons is still very active. Indeed I have a friend, not Dan, whose girl 
friend, not Suzie, got 'realized', (not Neo-Advaita'ed) in just less than 10 
years ago.

Go figure!

You're not even making any sense. If you sent a nuke to 
Saudi Arabia, you guys out there in CA wouldn't have any
fuel. Your whole state would become one big parking lot.

And that wouldn't stop the killing in Syria.

There's only one way to stop the killing in Syria - boots 
on the ground. The United Nations should send in troops 
TODAY in order to prevent the WMD from falling into the 
wrong hands. 

If some of the WMD gets lost and finds it's way to New 
York City, the 9-11 attacks will seem like an ant hill 
compared to a mountain.

So, by posting this I guess you're what, admitting to your own

Why don't you just slap them in the face - everyone knows that 99% of
the
respondents on FFL are Dems. If they don't slap you down for this, I
guess
they've lost the will to fight. Go figure.

Even so, you're still the loser because you stooped this low just to try

Son,
in a lifetime we're extremely fortunate to be meditators. And, to be
in Fairfield going to the group meditation everyday is extreme wealth
and good fortune in life. Yep, by the necessity of the evident
science and our evident experience with it the national anthem should
ought to be our old song,
 !VICTORY
BEFORE WAR! It is time to march to meditation with that song sung
proudly. Then sit up straight inside and Be all that we can Be deep
of the transcendent in life together, extend a perimeter of light
field, secure lines of eternal supply and give the best support to
everyone everywhere to help defend and secure the equal rights of all
humankind to all our spiritual birthright of the transcendent. Don't
sell yourself short. You are extremely fortunate to be living alive
in these times. Come to meditation, it is so easy. We are all
fortunate souls here. We don't need no shitty songs like that CCR
playing here to bring us down. Even though the guitar lick is
revolution we don't need bummer lyrics like the drug-infested CCR
said playing here. Ours is spiritual revival,

H, evidently it didn't work very well or the world and especially India

After all, we at the TM Raja Movement Corporation have taken our philosophy

Maharishi, Ganesh Chathurthi 2007
Dear Governors, Sidhas and Meditators,
We trust that you received this important announcement from Raja John Hagelin. 
We also wanted you to know that our Maharishi Jyotish Council has expressed the 
critical need to create more coherence in the world, especially for this next 
month.
We hope you are able to participate in Maharishi National YagyaSM performances 
and, if possible, personal Yagyas for yourself.

Dear Friends,
>From time immemorial, great kings and leaders of India have gathered together 
>large groups of Pandits for Vedic performances in order to avert or mitigate 
>any threat to society—present or future.
Today, very negative planetary influences are feeding upheaval and conflict 
around the world. Syria, in particular, has become a dangerous flashpoint.
In the light of the seriousness of the situation, and its potential impact on 
Syria, the Unites States, and the entire world, the TM Movement’s Global 
Council has encouraged National Yagyas in every country to focus on a speedy, 
peaceful resolution to the war in Syria.
Fortunately, our next 11-day Maharishi National YagyaSM performance for the 
U.S. will begin soon, on September 12, during the 10-day celebration of Ganesh 
Chathurthi, the birth of Ganesh.
During this time, the aspect of Cosmic Creative Intelligence that removes 
obstacles and hindrances in all areas of life is maximally lively. By 
nourishing this specific Law of Nature through the performance of National 
Yagyas, we enliven our ability to overcome obstacles—including obstacles to 
peace—and to rapidly achieve all our goals.
The Sankalpa (intention) of the Yagya will now be:
A peaceful, non-violent resolution to the violence in Syria 
>which is also supportive of the United States’ national interests.
The final day to sign up is Saturday, September 7.
Please click now to offer your support.
Better still . . . join our Monthly Giving Circle to bring continuous, ongoing 
support for the Maharishi Vedic Pandits and the National Yagya program.
When you contribute $1,250 or more to a National Yagya, you will be 
acknowledged by name on each day of the Vedic performance. Or you may designate 
your company, a group, or another person to be named.
My deepest, heartfelt thanks for the heroic support of our dear donors for the 
Maharishi Vedic Pandits and National Yagya program.
Jai Guru Dev

Excellent Barry, thank you for sharing this - I am entitling it "the Epitome of

yet people still don't ask the question "How can something that has no negative 
effects and no downside, something that produces freedom from all problems and 
gives one the support of all the laws of nature produce people and behavior 
like this? No one asks and if they do, they blame the people instead of looking 
twice at the technique (and its original teacher)

Subject: [FairfieldLife] Life On Ice Cream Island
 


  
As I've probably mentioned before, this month in Paris I'm staying on Île 
Saint-Louis, which along with the Île de la Cité is one of the two natural 
islands in the Seine. (There is a third, called Île aux Cygnes, but it's 
artificial, and does little more than provide a home for swans and the smaller 
prototype of the Statue Of Liberty.) 

When I mention that I'm staying on Île Saint-Louis, Parisians look at me the 
way Los Angelenos might if I'd told them I lived in Beverly Hills. Their 
impressions of the place are that it's full of rich, snooty people, the only 
ones who can afford the million-Euro apartments there. Having been here for a 
week or so, I beg to differ. There may, in fact, *be* a bunch of rich, snooty 
types living here, but I never see them on the streets. Maybe they're like 
rich, snooty people in other cities, and only appear on the streets long enough 
to be picked up by their limos and whisked off somewhere else, but I actually 
see fewer of them here than I might in areas of the VIth or VIIth 
arrondissements. The folks I run into in cafés and restaurants (and, you will 
see if you keep reading, ice cream joints) are pretty normal, everyday French 
people, *not* ostentatiously rich, and remarkably fun to interact with. 

The island itself is small, and looks kinda like this:


There are really only three streets, and little traffic. There are a few art 
galleries and stores, two small markets, a number of bars and restaurants. And 
unlike the rest Paris -- which seems to have a church on every corner, as if 
the population could not endure being more than a block away from one in case 
they suddenly develop the need to either pray or donate money to God (whom we 
all know needs it so badly) -- there is only one large church, 
Saint-Louis-en-l'Île. 

The island is named for Saint Louis, otherwise known as King Louis IX of 
France. He's the only French king recognized by the Catholic Church as a saint, 
and not being Catholic myself, I'm not sure what he did to deserve this, but I 
suspect that he is the patron saint of ice cream. 

Île Saint-Louis is home to Berthillon, which serves what is rightly considered 
the Best Ice Cream In Paris. 


It started as one small establishment, but now there are at least a dozen other 
restaurants on the island that advertise its ice creams on their signs and 
awnings. Naturally, market forces being what they are, a number of wannabee 
competitors have appeared on the island as well, selling *their* brands of ice 
cream, and trying to lure away some of the people who come here daily for their 
ice cream fix. Ice cream is so much a part of this island's culture that I hear 
they even use tiny Berthillon cones in the Saint-Louis-en-l'Île Church instead 
of communion wafers. 

All of this makes me remember one of my favorite TM stories, which I have 
related here before (and which actually happened to a former poster here), but 
which I will shamelessly tell again, because I think it captures so much about 
the TM mindset. This guy, a TM Governor of the Age of Enlightenment whom we'll 
call Joe, was on an ATR course in Europe, and found that he just couldn't 
stomach the hot milk with cardamom he was expected to drink each night after 
the meeting to speed him on his way to catching the Angel Train. 

So he developed an alternative routine, walking out the door of his hotel and 
into the café across the street, where he ordered an ice cream cone. He then 
took it back to his room and ate it there. 

At a certain point on this course, This Guy We're Calling Joe suddenly received 
a summons to appear before the Inquisition. They didn't call it that, of 
course, but when he walked into the room and saw the row of course leaders 
wearing their cheap suits and their standard-issue German scowls, he knew he 
was in Deep Shit.

They proceeded to lecture him about his Off The Program behavior, and 
threatened to not only send him home from the course if he didn't cut it out, 
but to put a black mark on his "permanent record" so that he'd never be 
accepted to any course in the future. At first he was concerned, as any 
red-blooded TM TB might be as such a terrible karmic prospect, but then he had 
a kind of satori experience. 

He suddenly realized that he was sitting in a room being grilled by a bunch of 
Bliss Na
