[FairfieldLife] RE: Bad omen for the Pope

[jr_esq]

Yifuxero,
 

 Actually, that's what Pope Francis is trying to do.  He's cleaning out the 
Church from money-hungry bureaucrats, particularly those in the Vatican bank.  
He might also kick out those pedophile priests who are still hiding out in the 
woodworks.
 

 But eventually the Church will accept women as priests in the future, although 
it won't be during this current pope's watch IMO.
 

 Homosexuals can still be accepted as priests.  But they can't lead an active 
gay life.
 

 The Church may also allow priests to marry as an option.  If so, the costs of 
having a priest will increase to support his or her family.
 

 Gay marriage and polygamy will still not be allowed.

 Nobody - even the Pope - can escape the Sword of Kali, currently working

influence acts to cull out any deep-seated hypocritical behavior.  In Obama's 
case, his hypocrisy is easily apparent, and the frustrating source of his

Kali.  Nobody is immune to Her.

[FairfieldLife] RE: Greatest mystery?

[steve.sundur]

I'm not sure I see enough of a difference there for smoking to be a deterrent.  
Plus, smoking may enable people to keep the weight off.  That's enough of a 
vanity factor for many - both men and woman.
 

 What surprises me, is how many have taken to e-cigarettes.  I see many long 
term smokers, including an employee who have given up burning tobacco, for 
heating it.
 

 On the other hand, I'm inclinded to think one of the greatest commercials of 
all time was "Call for Phillip Morris"
 

 Below was the closest I could find.

[FairfieldLife] RE: Videos about Narcissists and Psychopaths

[s3raphita]

 Jesus! That creep Berg. I came across The Children of God in the early 
seventies here in London. I recall the young woman in charge, who I suspect 
might have been one of his daughters, was typical cult-leader material. 
Complete self-confidence and not looking for anyone to contradict her. The 
disciples she'd collected around her were all lost souls.
  
 Interesting that the full-blown narcissist in the video regrets not having 
feelings. You'd have thought you had to "feel" unhappy or remorseful to regret 
not having feelings. Contradictory?

 “Sudden sharp changes from relatively

 'phase

 instance,
 water changes from a less orderly arrangement of molecules
 in the
 liquid state to a highly ordered crystalline structure when
 the
 temperature is lowered to 0 degree C. Physicists are now
 beginning
 to explore the possible applications of phase transition
 models to
 sudden sweeping changes in individual and social systems . .
 Transitions to more orderly configurations are frequently
 mediated by
 the influence of a few individuals from within a population.
 Such
 effects are observed in developing systems of many sorts. 
 For
 instance, in the embryo prior to the formation of any
 organs, a small
 cluster of cells is known as 'The Primary
 Organizer'. These few
 cells determine the developmental fates of the multitude of
 undifferentiated and unordered cells comprising the rest of

John Hagelin was not there to dumb-it-down for you but came in given free 
chance to tell it, the thoughtful way that Rick Archer provides to spiritual 
adepts within Rick's interview format. It was really good in fact. I listened 
to the podcast while meditating and it made perfect sense in all reality. More 
meditation experience would proly help you a whole lot more to understand it.  
Work some at your (consciousness-based) education more and then you'd 
appreciate what all he said more fully.

Heinz Rudolf Pagels, Ph.D. (1939-1988) Physicist. Was executive director and

 "My summary opinion, as a theoretical physicist specializing in the area of 
quantum field theory, is that the views expressed in the literature issued by 
the Maharishi International University, and appearing in the "World Government 
News" and other publications associated with the Maharishi Mahesh Yogi that 
purport to find a connection between the recent ideas of theoretical 
physics--unified field theory, the vacuum state and collective phenomena--and 
states of consciousness attained by transcendental meditation are false and 
profoundly misleading. No qualified physicist that I know would claim to find 
such a connection without knowingly committing fraud."
 

 "Individuals not trained professionally in modern physics could easily come to 
believe, on the basis of the presentations in the Maharishi literature, that a 
large number of qualified scientists agree with the purported connection 
between modern physics and meditation methods. Nothing could be further from 
the truth." "What was especially interesting to me, in reviewing this 
literature, is the claim put forth by the Maharishi and his followers, that 
transcendental meditation and 'The Science of Creative Intelligence' qualify as 
a science. Although the word 'science' is much abused, it continues to imply an 
adherent to logic, the clear presentation of assumptions and deductions, and 
the experimental method. Most importantly, any science necessarily contains a 
recipe for its own falsification. None of these central features of the Western 
concept of science are present in 'The Science of Creative Intelligence.' This 
is not science."

Re "Well I thought "everybody" knew he was killed by the long-time effects of 
the injection the FBI/CIA gave him when he was 24 hrs in prison before he left 
the USA. That's what Osho himself claimed.":

 

 Osho thought he was a victim of thallium poisoning by the FBI. As thallium 
causes hair loss and Osho had a full head of hair when he died that was 
obviously not the case. His symptoms match those caused by N2O abuse. And the 
authorities didn't need to kill him - they got much more mileage by having him 
slowly transported across country in handcuffs being filmed by the TV networks. 
Osho's bedroom was also bugged (without his knowledge) by his own deputy Sheela 
- the police confiscated those recordings (do they still have them?) so could 
have released juicy audio clips any time they wanted to embarrass him further.

Salyavin, I'm simply exploring this experience. Yes, our senses demonstrate the 
straightness of stick. We can touch it. We can lift it out of the water. We can 
understand how water and light work to create the optical illusion. But we 
still won't see the stick in the water as straight. For some reason, this 
boggles my mind. Which is a fun thing for me!

Richard, I think the stick appearing bent in the water is a great example. We 
can know a lot about sticks and water and light refraction and still, we won't 
see the stick as straight! Even if we dip our hand into the water and touch the 
straight stick, we still won't see it straight! Can all these experiences and 
knowledge be unified?

2. Objects have qualities or properties, which are parts of the

3. Objects are not affected merely by being known.

4. Objects seem as they are and are as they seem.

5. Objects are known directly.

6. Objects are public.

The problem with the naive realist position is that the senses don't
reveal everything that can be known - things and events are not

immersed half way into water may appear to be bent. Things and
events appear to be real, but if appearances derived through one

other senses for corroboration. When they contradict, which sense

 It is good of her to define things for us. People interpret things the way

Therefore, she gets -- nay *has* -- to "correct" them. 

Also, if people don't find her interpretation interesting enough to argue with 
her incessantly about it, they're "less intelligent" than they used to be. 

'Seems to me she's got that first one wrong, in that I don't remember her

And all of this to hide the fact that she's got nothing creative or original to 
contribute. She's just a tyrannical schoolmarm, "correcting other people's 
papers" and hoping one of them will dispute her "corrections," so that she can 
try to lure them into an argument about it.

 Here is a beautiful example of Barry embodying the exact opposite of those

 Thanks for sharing.
 

 Thanks for taking the time to watch. I have thought about what it is about 
animal therapy that works for people. You have the old folks having visits from 
dogs, you have prisoners working with horses as well. You also have many 
associations for disabled riders who can come and sit on a horse and be led 
around that are very successful.
 

 I think in the case of the veterans with PTSD it involves a feeling of being 
in some position of control and yet also vulnerable to being rejected (no join 
up) or even becoming too afraid of the physical perils (bitten or kicked or 
knocked down). I feel these damaged men are already fearful, unsure, deeply 
wounded and just the fact that they would enter into a program like this takes 
courage and a sort of faith that their participation won't make things somehow 
worse. So, when they begin working with these animals who are so big and who 
were great athletes themselves and are no longer wanted or needed (are virtual 
dog meat) they can relate - a sort of fallen hero similarity. The fact that the 
horse eventually chooses (not forced or coerced in any way) to come to them, to 
accept them and to do them no harm is beyond moving for these vets. The men and 
women understand that these animals don't need to do any of that and the 
element of unconditional acceptance and fondness (maybe not love) touches these 
people at the deepest level where all of their pain resides. For me, these 
horses become a sort of personal, loving God - the embodiment of a kind of 
compassionate power. I am a true believer that God works through animals very 
powerfully. This documentary allowed a little of that to show through by 
allowing us to see how deeply effected, and how positively effected, many of 
the men and women were. If this isn't spiritual, if this isn't, in fact, God 
then it is a close second.

Now I know why Nabby is so focused on crop circles - cuz Benjy says its so! 
That fact escaped me until now.


Benjamin Creme also believes that crop
circles are the work of UFOs and are linked to the Second Coming
of The Christ, and cites as "proof" that crop circles started
appearing around 1975, just as Creme started publicly teaching his woo about 
Maitreya, and
many of them appear around London, where Maitreya allegedly now lives.

The Bay Citizen
Meeting the Man Who Made Him the (Mistaken) Messiah
By SCOTT JAMES
Published: August 19, 2010

Scott James is a columnist for The Bay Citizen. 

Raj Patel
The Bay Citizen

A nonprofit, nonpartisan news organization providing local coverage of the San 
Francisco Bay Area for The New York Times. To join the conversation about this 
article, go to baycitizen.org.

Raj Patel has met his maker, so to speak.

Mr. Patel, a San Francisco author and economist, woke up one day earlier this 
year to discover that he had unwillingly been declared the messiah by followers 
of the New Age group Share International, founded by Benjamin Creme, a London 
mystic. It was a revelation that made Mr. Patel the focus of unwanted attention 
by thousands of worshipers and thrust him into a surreal international news 
media frenzy.

Last week Mr. Creme visited the Bay Area, and the two men met for the first 
time, over cookies in a private home in Berkeley, a possible finale in the 
timely tale of a mortal mistaken for a god.

After the meeting, both men have decided to call the events of the past several 
months “a case of mistaken identity.” They seemed impressed with each other, 
with Mr. Creme saying he found Mr. Patel quite intelligent and charming.

Mr. Patel had a different impression of Mr. Creme: “Bonkers.”

In January, devotees of Mr. Creme’s decades-old prophesies concluded — based on 
a series of clues and unverified information on the Internet — that Mr. Patel 
was the earthly manifestation of Maitreya, The World Teacher.

Mr. Creme, who said he received telepathic messages from the immortal Maitreya 
to share with followers, did not endorse the claim. But he did not forcefully 
deny it either. The story first appeared in this column, then London tabloids 
devoured the tale mercilessly, and Stephen Colbert, the comedian, devoted an 
entire segment of his “Colbert Report” on Comedy Central to ridiculing the 
deification.

Although Mr. Creme has finally released Mr. Patel from his divine burden, it 
doesn’t mean that he has given up on the idea of a messiah for these troubling 
times. In fact, his meeting with Mr. Patel was just part of an extended visit 
to the Bay Area to recruit new believers.

A crowd of more than 600 gathered at San Francisco’s Palace of Fine Arts on a 
recent Sunday afternoon to hear Mr. Creme. Looking his 87 years, he was gently 
assisted to center stage and then sat stoically as an audio recording played 
his voice, in a slow Boris Karloff cadence, purportedly channeling the words of 
Maitreya. “My plan is to show you that the way out of your problems is to 
listen again to the true voice of god within your hearts, to share,” he said.

When the recording ended, Mr. Creme spoke about the various crises in the 
world, including the growing imbalance between rich and poor that he ascribed 
to “an outmoded way of living” — a message that seemed to resonate with the 
mostly white crowd, some of whom had arrived in Mercedeses and BMWs.

Mr. Creme went on to explain that invisible “brothers” from other inhabited 
planets in our solar system had been on Earth to help mankind escape its 
problems and usher in a new age.

J. Gordon Melton, a religious scholar who has studied Share International and 
Mr. Creme since the 1970s, described the group as “small and harmless.”

The group’s messianic message — that a compassionate savior will come and teach 
the world better ways — “in hard economic times and war has an appeal,” Mr. 
Melton said. But, he added, non-Christian messiahs tend to face fi

 It is good of her to define things for us. People interpret things the way 
they see them, and if that disagrees with her interpretation, it's a LIE. 
Therefore, she gets -- nay *has* -- to "correct" them. 

Also, if people don't find her interpretation interesting enough to argue with 
her incessantly about it, they're "less intelligent" than they used to be. 

'Seems to me she's got that first one wrong, in that I don't remember her

people's interpretations of Robin or anything else said here. As for the second 
"definition," 'seems to me that people figuring out that arguing with her is a 
waste of their time indicates that they've grown *more* intelligent, not less. 

And all of this to hide the fact that she's got nothing creative or original to 
contribute. She's just a tyrannical schoolmarm, "correcting other people's 
papers" and hoping one of them will dispute her "corrections," so that she can 
try to lure them into an argument about it.

the Share-International movement. I have always felt a recognition that 
Benjamin Creme came up out of the mysticism and high spiritual virtue of the 
Society of Friends. Your long ardent support for this Share- movement makes a 
lot of sense to me now. Of course people in ignorance get so distracted by the 
appearance of material small details that they willingly dissonance but this is 
all not much different from our own TM movement in bringing light.
