I remember at Squaw Valley 1968 she mentioned her personal feelings that Hubbard was probably the most brilliant man she had ever met, but was at the same time (in her exact word) certifiable. She felt that he had a streak of paranoia that influenced everything he ever did or wrote.

[FairfieldLife] Re: The Relative
My question though is, if in enlightenment the Knower is the infinite Self, no longer the point ego, which effectively gets overridden (apart from its organizing functions), then you are left with a Self and a perceiving body. There might well be an experience of Self in all beings/ all beings in Self but how true can that be if it remains exclusively linked to the original point body and its perceptions? As such it's just like a glorified relative ego blessed with blissful oceanic feelings. It would only be a true cosmic Self if, moving from infinity to point, it no longer is exclusively linked to the original point body, since Self is omnipresent, at every point. That would make it less relative than before, since it would now be linked with an infinity of points of perception. You mention omniscience.. well if there is only ONE Knower anyway... presumably in Unity this happens? Otherwise again it would be a point hallucinating infinity, with no reality to it. --- In FairfieldLife@yahoogroups.com, Rick Archer [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: on 6/21/05 4:54 AM, claudiouk at [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: Maybe this has come up before in FFL, but if upon enlightenment there is consciousness (transcendental) and relative experience, and the consciousness is infinite value and experience point value, I find it odd that the two remain correlated via the ONE body. Enlightenment is the ability to embody all paradoxical realities. Take an actor having overall awareness (infinite value) and he acts three characters in a play (point value). Speaking as each character in turn he operates within the limitations their respective egos - but as the only reality the actor knows exactly what these egos perceive and can or cannot say or do. Whereas, returning to Consciousness, in the case of someone claiming enlightenment, there seems to be only knowledge of the one body and ego that existed prior to enlightenment. Is such enlightenment still relative then, and is there another more profound level to reach in which truly one would experience everything as the Self, this Self being truly INTIMATELY cognissant of the egos and bodies of ALL creatures? Because only THEN it becomes possible to love one's neighbour as one's Self AND have the sense that a wrong done to another is truly a wrong done to one's self as well. Sounds like you're alluding to omniscience. I think we can know ourSelf as the Self in all beings and see all beings in the Self without actually perceiving through the senses of all beings. That would be a relative ability, and enlightenment is not defined by relative abilities. In other words, stage 1 enlightenment is the expansion of point to infinity; stage 2, the linking back of infinity to ALL relative points, enabling the original point to know all other points intimately, directly.. Does this tally with any scripture, I wonder. To subscribe, send a message to: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Or go to: http://groups.yahoo.com/group/FairfieldLife/ and click 'Join This Group!' Yahoo!

--- In FairfieldLife@yahoogroups.com, Don [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: Unc Sounds like a great gig, being there and enjoying happenings like the one you describe. Do you speak French? If not, how is it living there w/o it? In the last several years I have found myself attracted to France but have never been, and don't speak the language. Well, I have to admit to having been somewhat lazy with the development of my French. I work for a French company, but one in the computer industry (which runs on English) and in which everyone speaks English, and in which all of the documentation and training materials and programs I write are done in English. So there has been (fortunately for me in terms of finding work, unfortunately for me in terms of learning French) not the immersion factor at work that would have improved my French drastically. I can read most things in French, and understand most of what is said. My weakness is in speaking French well. I can get by, but French grammar is very precise, and my French is, as yet, far from precise. I have the same problems everyone has -- with the gender of nouns, the exact verb form to use, etc. But I'm working on it. This summer I get to live in a small town in the south, where almost no one speaks English, so I will finally be forced into the immersion scenario I need to progress. The more general answer to your question is that you can get by adequately in Paris knowing very little French, because English has emerged as the international language of tourism, just as it is the international language of business and computing. But in the smaller towns and provinces, you'd be much happier knowing more French. IMO, the best way to learn whether one really has a feel for France or not is to visit, and travel around. There is an old saying here that is completely accurate -- There is Paris, and then there is France. The two are not synonymous. Paris, although arguably one of the world's most beautiful and livable cities, is not France. It's Paris, its own universe. The outlying areas of France are very, very, very different. Most different, for a meditator, in terms of the level of silence. When you get into the outlying areas, especially down south, in some of the less populous areas, meditation becomes just something you surrender to, not something you do. The level of silence is that profound. In Paris, there is an astounding level of silence for a city this large and dynamic, but it's not the same.

In my experience, yes. The vast majority. Another subset of the anti-cult types, interestingly enough, are the people who pride themselves on being rationalists or skeptics. Such folks take almost a cult-like pride in believing in *nothing* that smacks of extrasensory or hypernormal phenomena, and react to anything out of the mainstream with the same vehemence that a fundie Christian might. Fascinating. One could say that the common denominator in both cases is the rigidity of their underlying belief system and the level of personal identification they have with that rigid belief system. Anything that appears to contradict the belief system is perceived as a personal attack against them, because they have identified with their belief system so strongly.

[FairfieldLife] Re: The Relative
I cannot understand how this kind of theoretical, intellectual speculation can help a person to evolve. If we knew how higher stages of consciousness than ours are, that knowing would be inevitably wrong, only a different way to organize our present stage of consciousness outwardly. With your present eyes, you just cannot see how the world looks like, when seen with much more accurate eyes that can perceive dimensions, your eyes cannot. We cannot adopt a higher stage of consciousness than ours that way, we can only imitate it. And that imitation can even become a hindrance for further growth. We evolve best by uncovering the limitations and illusions of the perceptions our present stage creates. If the process of imitating takes up most of your attention, very little attention is left to uncovering the contradictions of our present stage. Often the hypocrisy that goes with imitation forms a safe hiding place for rigid and false thought forms. On the other hand we can for moments get peak experiences, experience glimpses of higher stages and that can be of help in uncovering the illusions that are hidden in our present stage. At least I have personally not been interested in higher stages. If you have a rigid preconceived idea, you are less open for the unexpected, which a new stage will be. Every thought and every experience regardless of how pure, subtle and transcendental it feels, when perceived in and through a physical body and nervous system, is always in the relative. We can only talk about the absolute, we cannot experience it. Irmeli --- In FairfieldLife@yahoogroups.com, claudiouk [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: My question though is, if in enlightenment the Knower is the infinite Self, no longer the point ego, which effectively gets overridden (apart from its organizing functions), then you are left with a Self and a perceiving body. There might well be an experience of Self in all beings/ all beings in Self but how true can that be if it remains exclusively linked to the original point body and its perceptions? As such it's just like a glorified relative ego blessed with blissful oceanic feelings. It would only be a true cosmic Self if, moving from infinity to point, it no longer is exclusively linked to the original point body, since Self is omnipresent, at every point. That would make it less relative than before, since it would now be linked with an infinity of points of perception. You mention omniscience.. well if there is only ONE Knower anyway... presumably in Unity this happens? Otherwise again it would be a point hallucinating infinity, with no reality to it.

But Maharishi had a strong core follower in the early days of the movement who had been L. Ron Hubbard's personal secretary for many, many years, and she probably told him a few things about Hubbard. Right. I am of course not referring to the TM itself, but to the explanation that is given especially at the second day checking, that is stress release, and thought being an expression of it. The idea that stresses, for example emotional are restored in the body and upon release are giving rise to thought activity. The idea that the thought will be not necessarily exact, but could respond by association. That there is a mixture, i.e. a cluster of stress released. That there is a cycle. Its not the same, but you feel that he modelled it after the auditing model of Dianetics. In a similar way, MMY has expressed his admiration for Yogananda, and overtook things from him, most notably a vebatim quote from one of Y's books in the secret steps. I remember at Squaw Valley 1968 she mentioned her personal feelings that Hubbard was probably the most brilliant man she had ever met, but was at the same time (in her exact word) certifiable. She felt that he had a streak of paranoia that influenced everything he ever did or wrote. Hubbard was a colorful personaility to say the least.

Re: [FairfieldLife] A Sense of Sangha (was Re: balancing techniques)
I have followed with some interest the career of rocket scientist John Jack Parsons and Hubbard. In fact Parsons just had a new biography published. Hubbard and Parsons worked together on a ritual called the Babalon working which was a rite to incarnate Babalon, essentially a form of Kali, in human form. The idea was that this would be Parson's spiritual mate who could help him manifest anything, including complete enlightenment. Well something backfired. As the ritual working came to climax, Parson ended up killing himself in an explosion at Cal Tech and Hubbard got the manifested form of Babalon as his wife. Shortly thereafter Hubbard begins his rise to power. This is all very Gnostic. In fact if one looks closely at Hubbards system, it clearly has parallels to the Neoplatonic idea of the *idios daemon*--the personal Daemon (not to be confused with *demon*). The same practice is what became the ideal of the Holy Guardian Angel. Its primary practice is that of Knowledge and Conversation with the Holy Guardian Angel. Correct completion of this path often manifests as an elaborate system of attaining various ends, mundane and spiritual, not unlike what Scientology has become in our modern scientific era. The parallels between Scientology and Knowledge and Conversation of the Holy Guardian Angel are undeniable in my opinion, there are just too many examples in that system for it to be otherwise. Given both Parson's and Hubbard's interests, one only has to look as far as the Hermetic Order of the Golden Dawn for a source of these ideas. Unfortunately it seems the purity of that system of attainment seems to have been obscured in Scientology as is often the case in any institution or hierarchical system. In any event, its interesting to see how a western tradition of enlightenment can manifest in a scientific era.

No difference. A natural progression from this would seem to be the realization that one's Wholeness is potentially as free to be ANY point-self as to be one's habitual point-self: what I would (habitually) call Krishna Consciousness.

It, the Self, exists by its Self. This has been my experience when I still my mind. All thoughts go away, and yet I can still perceive something else, pure consciousness, the Self. It is odd because it feels like me, but try as I might I can't locate the attachment point, through thought or the senses. Sometimes I will even imagine being attached to It just to satisfy some remnant of ego or habit, though when I focus on it, there is truly no attachment. It is like pressing on foam to leave an impression, and no matter how hard I press, there is no impression left. snip It would only be a true cosmic Self if, moving from infinity to point, it no longer is exclusively linked to the original point body, since Self is omnipresent, at every point. That would make it less relative than before, since it would now be linked with an infinity of points of perception. Exactly. Though I am unsure about the next step- how the perception of the Self begins to extend to everything else 'out there'. Conceptually, yes, but experientially, not yet constant.

You raise some good questions.

There might well be an experience of "Self in all beings/ all beings in Self" but how true can that be if it remains exclusively linked to the original "point" body and its perceptions? -This is the problem, identifying with the body as if it's a point. The body is infinite. The self is absolute, not infinite. A point of identification is the absolute identifying with some snapshot of the infinite. There are no points. There are merely snapshots. As soon as the camera eye of the absolute has finished with its picture the scene has changed. How mant times does your pet, or baby do something cute, and you yell for the wife, and then she comes running, and the pet, or baby won't do it again? Snapshot, snapshot, snapshot, snapshot. And then we get hung up on the better pitcures of yesterday when our hair blew just right, and Kali didn't appear so lustful in our own eyes. All beings are linked, even in the snapshot. Didn't you see the dolphin in the ocean behind the subject, and the water sprites in the cloud dipping their heads into the underside of the gray foam of their world. What about the baby which raised it's hand too the twinkling sunlight refracted of your lens. As such it's just like a glorified relative ego blessed with blissful oceanic feelings. -Except that unlike the horny housewife who is identifying with herwet snatch (whoas been having a midlife crises for the last ten years), and the postman-as-divinely-handy-tool, (Thank you Jesus), except that, the enlightened aren't really identifying with their vagina, wet or dry, no, they are a circumference without any point for fastening upon. And so also, when the postman turnes them down, or they are to shy to invite him in, they release the horns, and don't treat their husbands like shit when they get home. Or they refasten the horns and work their man over, to his surprise. You see the enlightened is not afraid to try something new, since they aren't just a snapshot. Snapshot. The enlightened wife has a lucky husband who comes home to the field of all possibilities. It would only be a true cosmic Self if, moving from infinity to "point", it no longer is exclusively linked to the original "point" body, The problem is using TM-speak which is relative, and based not upon the Sanskrit basis for the philosophy but is based in the English or other language and is the interpretation of an interpretation. In Tibetan they have five words for thought, five for mind, and so on The body is an amazing thing. Really amazing. Think how flexible and beautiful it is. And what is it? It's billions of individual cells. When you are speaking of a point body, what's your point? Which point? And even in that point are more points. Iin the cell is an atom of particles, and smaller points beyond. What one finds is the self same field of the absolute, and no points, no motion, nothing being created, or dying. Nothing but an absolute. That's is. Snap. Snap. since Self is omnipresent, at every point. That would make it less "relative" than before, since it would now be linked with an infinity of "points" of perception. You mention omniscience.. well if there is only ONE Knower anyway... presumably in Unity this happens? Otherwise again it would be a "point" hallucinating "infinity", with no "reality" to it. Snapshot. A better question is why am I happy sometimes but not at others?

[FairfieldLife] UCLA student newspaper interview MMY
In this interview, UCLA student reporter Rachel Kelley asks Maharishi about the role of students in changing the world, how the Transcendental Meditation technique can improve effectiveness, and the best question of allWhat is enlightenment? Reporter: My name is Rachel Kelley and I am a reporter with the UCLA Daily Bruin newspaper, and I am doing a story on the Transcendental Meditation program. And I was wondering if I could ask you some questions. Maharishi: Yes, yes. Reporter: Okay, thanks. Maharishi: Transcendental Meditation is a very old story. So, yes, ask some new questions. Reporter: I have heard that you talked about enlightenment as being easy, and I was wondering what exactly you mean by enlightenment? Maharishi: Enlightenment means lack of darkness, absence of darkness. And absence of darkness means no mistake, no weakness, no shortcoming success everywhere, fulfillment of desire everywhere. That is enlightenment. One is living in full accord with Natural Law. Spontaneously Nature is supporting us: then we are not in the dark about anything. Reporter: And can anyone learn the TM technique? What does it require? Maharishi: It requires just a desire to learn, and as anything is learned from a teacher, Transcendental Meditation is also learned from the teacher. For these 40 years, millions of people are learning TM, and they're gaining enlightenment. That means they are becoming more and more in accord with Natural Law. That means greater success all the time, no mistakes in life, no harm to anyonethat is enlightenment through Transcendental Meditation. Reporter: What do you feel is the value of students learning the TM technique? Maharishi: The student life is to gain as much knowledge as possible, and if possible, total knowledge. So when they learn Transcendental Meditation, they also learn the principles of Transcendental Meditationtotal knowledge. Transcendental Consciousness is the Unified Field of all the Laws of NatureUnified Field, you know? This quantum field theory has established, that there is one Unified Field of all the Laws of Nature at the basis of all creativity of Natural Law. So when one transcends, one gets into that level of intelligence, which is all- knowingness. This is enlightenment. And one spontaneously begins to think better in every waybetter means in every wayright for everyone, useful for everyone, and quickly achieving the desire. That is enlightenment. And the life of the student is to develop all knowledge that is possible, to gain all creativity that is possible. There is an infinite degree of creativity in the consciousness of everyone, and Transcendental Meditation unfolds that, very easily, very simply, so total knowledge can be gained by every student. So the purpose of a student career, the purpose of gaining education, can be fulfilled through the practice of Transcendental Meditation. Reporter: What do you think students can do for the world? Maharishi: They can re-create the world. The world must be redone, it must be re-established. And basically there is only one thing to restructure the world, and that is enlightenment for everyone. Reporter: People in the United States don't normally associate ease with effectiveness, so how does the TM technique encompass both? Maharishi: Transcendental Meditation makes the active mind fully silent, spontaneously, and that silence remains when one comes out of meditation, then the mind remains silent and remains activesilent and active. Just like a businessman goes to the bank and he comes out, his pocket full, and he moves around in the market very easily, and he does not have to struggle to gain profit in the market if he has money in the pocket. Like that, the inner creativity from Transcendental Meditation comes out and then, with increased creativity, people don't have to work that hard. The principle of Transcendental Meditation is: no hardness in life. This great principle isdo less and accomplish more. In the principle of shooting an arrow with great force, we just pull the arrow back and releaseit will go very far and hit the target with great force. So success is not gained through hard work: success is gained by having the infinite organizing power of Natural Law in our favor. So Transcendental Meditation brings the favor of Natural Lawbrings the creativity of Natural Law, which governs the whole universeso everything becomes very easy for the Meditators to achieve. Reporter: How would you respond to students who are afraid of putting themselves in such a deep rest state because that feeling is so foreign to them? Maharishi: No, No. Everyone knows sleeping is very natural. No one has to work hard to sleep. So resting is a natural process. One rests, one feels better, one feels relaxed. `Work hard' is a wrong principle. Only, one should draw the mind inward, pull the arrow and release. This is the way to fulfill our

CAM Modalities Can Stimulate Advances in Theoretical Biology Alex Hankey Hethe House, Cowden, Kent TN8 7DZ, UK Table of Contents Abstract Introduction The Biophysics of Regulation and Health Ayurveda's Tridosha: Gross Regulation of Organisms Genomes and Feedback Singularities Ayurveda and Energy Medicine Conclusions References Abstract Most complementary medicine is distinguished by not being supported by underlying theory accepted by Western science. However, for those who accept their validity, complementary and alternative medicine (CAM) modalities offer clues to understanding physiology and medicine more deeply. Ayurveda and vibrational medicine are stimulating new approaches to biological regulation. The new biophysics can be integrated to yield a single consistent theory, which may well underly much of CAMa true `physics of physick'. The resulting theory seems to be a new, fundamental theory of health and etiology. It suggests that many CAM approaches to health care are scientifically in advance of those based on current Western biology. Such theories may well constitute the next steps in our scientific understanding of biology itself. If successfully developed, these ideas could result in a major paradigm shift in both biology and medicine, which will benefit all interested partiesconsumers, health professionals, scientists, institutions and governments. Introduction In the past decades, the public have turned to therapies of complementary and alternative medicine (CAM) on a scale that ministries of health were unprepared for, and which is driving the present revolution in patterns of health care (16). One reason is the increased incidence of chronic disease, and the natural concern of many people to leave no stone unturned in their search for an end to the suffering of themselves, or their nearest and dearest, particularly if someone they trust has found relief. It is commonplace that the increase in mean ages of their populations is driving the increase in chronic disease in developed countries (7). As baby boomers come up to retirement, a crisis in public health looms that will stretch the budgets of all economies. Currently, orthodox biomedicine has no power to cure these diseases. Indeed, that is the only reason orthodox medicine lumps such illnesses together in the category it terms `chronic', introducing the terms `chronic disease care' (8) and `chronic disease management' (9) to indicate that the best it can offer is being done for them. On past experience, conventional medicine will only discover cures for chronic diseases slowly. It is therefore imperative for all concerned that other avenues of approach to the problem are explored. Wherever CAM modalities can be shown to offer cheaper or more problem- free alternatives to conventional practice in managing chronic disease, they will potentially provide welcome relief for Ministries of Health and their Exchequers alike. If such CAM therapies also offer fewer side effects than drug therapies, they will be welcomed by consumers. Any CAM modalities that were shown to provide reliable cure for a presently incurable chronic pathology should be doubly welcomed. One of the problems that faces governments in providing funding for CAM therapies, however, is the continued lack of understanding of what they can offer and how they work. On the one hand, the evidence base of complementary medicine is increasing, an important factor this journal has

[FairfieldLife] infinity to PointS (was the relative)
Many thanks for all the responses, not sure how to address them all.. They helped me think more about the question and hopefully some resolution is taking place somewhere in my brain 58385... Irmeli Mattsson I cannot understand how this kind of theoretical, intellectual speculation can help a person to evolve... If you have a rigid preconceived idea, you are less open for the unexpected, which a new stage will be. MMY often emphasized the importance of understanding along with direct experience, for one's evolution. I agree that imitating a state of consciousness from some cultural transmission is pointless, but theoretical discussions can hopefully reduce confusion and be inspiring and motivating. I imagine that direct experience would override and automatically stretch any limiting preconceptions. Every thought and every experience regardless of how .. transcendental it feels, when perceived in and through a physical body and nervous system, is always in the relative. We can only talk about the absolute, we cannot experience it. In MMY's schema, this is the point to infinity bit, only you're saying that any and all experience is relative. But the Knower is Absolute so from the infinity to point perspective why are we stuck with the relative experience associated with THIS point body and not others, given that the Knower inhabits other bodies simultaneously. 58396 ... Rory Goff Brahman or Wholeness resides AS fully in the manifest, relative point as in the unmanifest, absolute Ocean. No difference. A natural progression from this would seem to be the realization that one's Wholeness is potentially as free to be ANY point-self as to be one's habitual point-self: Yes Infinity (= Wholeness = Unmanifest/Absolute = Self) is omnipresent at every Point (= manifest, relative = self). So why is the consciosness/Knower remain linked to the habitual point self if it is free to be ANY point-self ? 58405... jim_flanegin The Self is distinctly free from any sense of personal identification.It is perceived by the original 'point' body, but is not actually connected to it.It is odd because it feels like me, but try as I might I can't locate the attachment point, through thought or the senses. Yes identification dissolves when going from point to infinity. Though I am unsure about the next step- how the perception of the Self begins to extend to everything else 'out there'. Conceptually, yes, but experientially, not yet constant. This infinity to pointS is the tricky bit. I myself can't speak from experience, but am interested in it conceptually (as part of some understanding of the possibilities of higher states of consciousness). Not sure for instance how it relates to Unity. 58408 ... Llundrub This is the problem, identifying with the body as if it's a point. The body is infinite. The self is absolute, not infinite. A point of identification is the absolute identifying with some snapshot of the infinite. There are no points. There are merely snapshots. I like MMY's spacial schema point to infinity = relative to Absolute. You seem to prefer a temporal model based on snapshots. Both space and time are involved in the relative. And yes a point is equivalent to a snapshot of the infinite. All beings are linked, even in the snapshot. That is true even from our unenlightened consciousness. But we experience ourselves as separate points/snapshots - even, it seems, in the Absolute to Relative/Infinity to Point situation. When you are speaking of a point body, what's your point? Which point? And even in that point are more points. Very true in terms of a Unified Field chart but what is relevant here is the sensory ego-point , and its experiential separateness from others, in spite of the Wholeness underlying the snapshot. A better question is why am I happy sometimes but not at others Presumably the camera angle.. but what happens when one takes an infinite number of snapshots all at once (infinity to pointS) or is only one snapshot allowed at each successive moment (infinity to point)? 58259 ...Irmeli Mattsson My present understanding of the seemingly complicated phenomenon of consciousness evolution is strongly influenced by spiral dynamicsAnd how you interpret and describe your enlightenment experience depends largely, in addition to cultural influences, on the stages of organizing I you are in. The lower you are the more extravagant those interpretations tend to be. I think there are still a lot of inexperienced stages and possibilities ahead us in the evolution of the organizing I. In order to evolve to those higher stages I think the awakening of the first I to be a prerequisite. I found the spiral dynamics notion very interesting. Although this unfoldment of Is relates to stages in the point to infinity and infinity to point - and goodness knows there is an eternity of snapshots on the videotape there to keep us

One glace sufficed; upon whatever she focused her thoughts it was revealed to her and her understanding. She saw the whole world as we see the front of a building. It was the same with nations as with individuals; she saw the cause of their distresses and the remedies that would heal them. On curing the sick, p. 10: She touched the sick, and they were cured; she warned others of their approaching end, and they died holy deaths. She endured great austeries for the souls in Purgatory, and the souls, once set free, came to thank her... --- End forwarded message --- To subscribe, send a message to: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Or go to: http://groups.yahoo.com/group/FairfieldLife/ and click 'Join This Group!'

But hey, maybe he read Dianetics first. As I think I've mentioned before here, I doubt he's ever really read anything of the literature of Scientology or any other spiritual tradition. But Maharishi had a strong core follower in the early days of the movement who had been L. Ron Hubbard's personal secretary for many, many years, and she probably told him a few things about Hubbard. Right. I am of course not referring to the TM itself, but to the explanation that is given especially at the second day checking, that is stress release, and thought being an expression of it. The idea that stresses, for example emotional are restored in the body and upon release are giving rise to thought activity. The idea that the thought will be not necessarily exact, but could respond by association. That there is a mixture, i.e. a cluster of stress released. That there is a cycle. But this is exactly what the samskaras are in the Yogic tradition. Ever occur to you that maybe Hubbard was familiar with THAT? Its not the same, but you feel that he modelled it after the auditing model of Dianetics. In a similar way, MMY has expressed his admiration for Yogananda, and overtook things from him, most notably a vebatim quote from one of Y's books in the secret steps. I remember at Squaw Valley 1968 she mentioned her personal feelings that Hubbard was probably the most brilliant man she had ever met, but was at the same time (in her exact word) certifiable. She felt that he had a streak of paranoia that influenced everything he ever did or wrote. Hubbard was a colorful personaility to say the least. Just last night I did some internet research on all I could get hold on about scientology. I have clearly experienced how through enlightenment experiences concepts vanish, and realized that our conditioning is holding us back. The idea to work on this conditioning is therefore interesting to me. I found that Hubbard was obviously a big fan of Aleister Crowley, and made some very secret mackic rituals with one of his disciples called Jack Parson, he even overtook his girlfriend. http://www.religio.de/atack/occ1.html There is also some speculation that the word Dianetics is reminescent of the Goddess Diana. Hubbard had appearances of a goddess he called the Empress. Scientology became an amalgan between psychotherapy, mackic and basically gnostic thought. In its later stages, from OT3 on, it becomes a sort of psychotherapeutic exorcism. There is a strange story called OT3,a sort of science fiction fairy tale you can read here: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Xenu which accounts for the existence of quasy demonic uncounscious souls,which occupy our body limbs by the thousands according to Hubbard,and are conscequently exorcised,i.e. liberated through auditing from OT3 to OT7. See http://www.xs4all.nl/~kspaink/fishman/index2.html There is also a controversy about that according to sci religious ideas have been implanted by the 'bad guy' xenu intohuman brains in order to control us called R6. In the highest level OT8 one alledgedly has to abondan these ideas see http://www.xs4all.nl/~kspaink/fishman/ot8b.html This is clearly gnostic thought,were the creator of the heavens is being looked down at as basically the imprisoner of thought. So scientology does retain its originally gnostic/mackic attribute. In having a great emphazis on reincarnation, karma, release of karma, identifying ourselves as Gods, it is much closer to Hindu and Buddhist philosophy than to Xthianity, which I think is a good thing. It also seems that the everage practitioner is not necessarily acquqainted with these higher philosophical aspects, and simply uses the tools to become more 'aware' about his own conditioning, and releases it in a non-judgemental way. I came across webpages of people who parted with the organization for ovious reasons, but still did auditing, also of the higher levels, and there are independed organizations offering it, like http://freezoneamerica.org/ To subscribe, send a message to: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Or go to: http://groups.yahoo.com/group/FairfieldLife/ and click 'Join This Group!'
