[FairfieldLife] Re: Elvis-shakti

Vaj, Can you give me the skinny on Kornfield regarding how much of Advaita he supports? I see he lists Nisargadatta as a teacher of his -- yet most of his education came from Buddhists. I guess a question I would ask first is: is the Buddhist "void" the same as the Advaitic "absolute?" Edg

Well, I was partly right and partly wrong. Barry decided he'd better not pretend to ignore that old post of his I found; but he refuses to give me any suggestions as to how to make Google Groups Search work, as I predicted (I suspect that's because it's *not* working for him either), and his curren

[FairfieldLife] Flashback: Porcine Pill-Popper gets Pwned

The clip is from 1990 when a much younger Rush Limbaugh got owned by the studio audience during his very brief career in television. The crowd eventually becomes so incensed by his nasty attacks on women that he can't get a word in edgewise and they are forced to clear the studio in order fo

Confusing Charisma with Wisdom Another source of spiritual misunderstanding is our confusion of charisma with true wisdom. Certain spiritual leaders possess the ability to evoke extraordinary states. Amplified by our hopes, feelings of bliss and transcendence arise easily around these cha

[FairfieldLife] Re: Obama's Press Secretary seems amused...

Very good article. A couple of highlights: --The first Gibbs counterpunch that got Washington, cable news and the blogosphere humming was his response to Santelli's rant on CNBC against the president's plan to address the home foreclosure problem. In what looked to be a canned but intense

I was curious about the business end of the degree. I figured they would make you legally bound to them. And "supreme" is a bit of hyperbole, to say the least! But have you heard anything about the medical school? --- On Sat, 3/7/09, boo_lives wrote: > From: boo_lives > Subject: [FairfieldL

Are these BS and MA programs in lieu of the medical school program that I read about a while ago? Maybe this is the first step towards that. --- On Sat, 3/7/09, nablusoss1008 wrote: > From: nablusoss1008 > Subject: [FairfieldLife] New: Maharishi University of Vedic Medicine > To: FairfieldLi

[FairfieldLife] A Few Words For Those Who Still Love TM

Good on you. If in the past my outspoken language has convinced you that I believe otherwise, I apologize. I think it's *neat* when I meet people who found a Way of life *early* in that life and Stuck With It. I have never been able to. You may consider that a fault or failing if you like, and

[FairfieldLife] Getting Away From It All

Living in a tourist town has its perks. Between Carnival and Halloween, if you're by nature a voyeur, your enter- tainment "comes to you" rather than you actually having to become a tourist and go somewhere else to find it. So this sunny, warm day in Sitges I am sitting at one of my favorite cafes
