[FairfieldLife] Kali Yuga News: Bizarre murder attempt that I can just see going viral
It's innovative, it appeals to the kind of deranged psychopath who would want to take out a lover (of either sex, when you think about it), and it involves both risk to the perp (thrills) and sex. Sadly, I can see movies or TV shows about this in our future, not to mention...uh...copypussy crimes. http://www.huffingtonpost.co.uk/2013/01/29/vagina-murder-plot-brazilian-man-wife-poisoning-_n_2572836.html?utm_hp_ref=mostpopular Talk about cunning linguists...

[FairfieldLife] Re: Describing Communal (Meditating) Fairfield
.. --- In FairfieldLife@yahoogroups.com, Buck wrote: I wrote this piece below and have been e-mailing individually to a number of scholarly folks who I met at an academic meeting studying Utopian and communal groups that I attended recently out in upstate New York. I came away with about 50 business cards from scholars who I met and talked with at the conference. I wrote this to be able to send to them something descriptive about (meditating) Fairfield, Iowa as a 'communal' group. Of course what I set out to write became longer than I intended. Here is the unabridged version with the links. I hope you'll like the Shaker comparison and I think you'll appreciate the links. Best Regards from Iowa, : Communal (Meditating) Fairfield, Iowa On returning home from the annual meeting I find myself wanting to catch up by sharing some links on 'communal' Fairfield, Iowa with you that might better give insight in to a scale and circumstance of the communal society I come from and have lived in for 40 years. Starting from the outside looking in on meditating Fairfield it can seem like looking at a monolith. Evidently it is easy to make assumptions about Fairfield and its meditators as it is also tough to discern what is going on inside the meditating community. But it need not be difficult at all once there are handles on it. The Fairfield meditating community has matured in time and is quite developed with many communal features to find and look at. I see Fairfield, Iowa in fact can provide a large and living laboratory for communal community scholars to look at. Beginning with Tim Miller's Communal Societies Vol. 30 No.1, 2010 paper in mind I'll give you some things further below to look at for yourselves, A Matter of Definition: Just What Is an Intentional Community? -A sense of purpose and distinctiveness, with deliberate intent to be a community -Some kind of shared living space -Some shared resources -Critical mass For communal studies scholars looking in I believe one of the best ways to understand the scale of the Fairfield Meditating community is to relate to it in a form like the old Shaker villages as organizational structure back while the Shakers were up and running. In the middle of TM is the equivalent of a Shaker 'Ministry Family' of upper administration and then elements of communal families of meditators that are in concentric circles around the middle including meditators who live well outside the middle in town but come inside to meditate also as members. The upper level is a more exclusive level (only for sake of an analogy though, they do not use that term 'ministry' to describe themselves) which currently now tends to live more exclusively out in an adjacent new town area called Maharishi Vedic City to the northwest of Fairfield proper. The university community lives more on their campus in Fairfield. The larger meditating community lives through out Fairfield and the County area either disperse singly or in meditator households in neighborhoods. Maharishi Vedic City and the university community each function with obvious communal aspect with people living together, working for their community together, housing close together, educating their kids together, socializing together, sharing resources etc. The larger surrounding meditating community also functions that way. The common thing to these Shaker-like 'families' of meditators in the Fairfield area like the Shakers is that they moved to Fairfield as meditators to be practicing meditators in something larger. In starting, Maharishi Mahesh Yogi was a proponent of Transcendental Meditation for 60 years in the West and there has been a meditating community in Fairfield, Iowa for about 40 years. The Transcendental Meditation (TM) movement purchased a bankrupt college campus in Fairfield, Iowa and moved a university there in 1974. The university was teaching a wide liberal arts curricula where the students and faculty were also practicing meditators. That functioned as a unit in Fairfield for about a half decade when at a large gathering of meditators meeting with Maharishi it was suggested that folks as meditators move to the Fairfield community to be able to meditate regularly in large group meditations. That was the start of the Fairfield meditating community where meditators moved to Fairfield, Iowa generally. Through the later 1970's, 1980's, 1990's and even up to present time thousands of meditators have lived in Fairfield. Like happened with the Shakers there are now lots of projects that go along with meditating that start to be defining otherwise but still the formative communal reason here is more essentially about the spiritual practice of meditating. Hopefully this is useful as a way of looking at it. I am providing here below some source links to

[FairfieldLife] How the Coca disappeared from Coca-Cola
Fascinating history of the drink once described as an 'intellectual beverage' among well-off whites and coveted for its aphrodisiac qualities. It was originally made from cocaine, after all, which when combined with alcohol, produces a potent drug called cocaethylene. So you drank your Coca-Cola, maybe with a little liquor mixed in, and you got all hot and bothered. And that's where racism reared its ugly head. First marketed in the South, Coca-Cola soon found its way out of the hands of the rich white folks and into the hands of Negros. Who were going to drink it and get all hot and bothered, too, and start looking at white women. Can't have that. Voila. No more coke in Coke. http://www.theatlantic.com/health/archive/2013/01/why-we-took-cocaine-ou\ t-of-soda/272694/ http://www.theatlantic.com/health/archive/2013/01/why-we-took-cocaine-o\ ut-of-soda/272694/ [coca-cola-ad-1886.png]

Dear Bob, my shield of human-ness has taken a lot of hits of late and
I am trying on a new reality - that of emulating Share's approach to me
and all others' she has determined are exhibiting negativity -
particularly of the nasty and sniping variety. Â I found this treasure
tonight (under the heading Auric Shield) on an internet healing site, so
I know that it has a lot of street cred. Â Share has mastered this
technique and I think she may have written these exact words, in fact
(the ones in the first paragraph.)Â
What this means is for me is:Â no more attempts to creatively insult; no
more cynicism or irony; no helping others help themselves with
pseudo-insightful observations; no more self-serving, creepy humor. Â
Now, you must realize, I've been practicing and learning all these
important skills right here, but I have seen the gemstone of therapeutic
wonderment and have had a change of being. Â
The heart on the sleeve shield I have been using is covered in blood
spatter and must go in for repair; the breaches in my security resulted
in dramatics of grandiose proportions over the holidays (Share, poor
woman, had to weather the bulk of my distress); I have been kicked out
of the inner circle of my favorite cute (I mean cult) leader, who has
apparently retired to the sandy beaches of somewhere for more
introspection. Â Â
I am going to visualize an auric shield, as described below (paragraph
2) and go forth into the wide world of wonderfulness; it is an apt
consequence to my many irritating digressions from love and logic that
FFL so patiently and compassionately allowed me to display, as I flailed
and wallowed my way back, these past 2 years, to a state where I believe
that I may be able to act as if, if the knowingness of my first person
ontology fails me at any given time.Â
My astrological chart tells me that February is the month for me to move
to the front lines, go where the action is, feel the fear and do it
anyway, take up drawing, unpack the clothes, become accountable, raise
my standards, take care of business, etc., etc., etc.Â
I guess I say all this to say that my recovery from cluelessness and
cynicism is likely to be of painfully long duration, but I am confident
that my auric shield will protect us both, and I promise that when you
call my name, I will be there (I do tend to run a bit late, but I'll
work on that too), to distract and dramatize as needed. Â Love, Emily. Â
AURICÂ SHIELD
I have been working on the ability to remain unaffected by and not
absorb negative words or negative energies of other people.
One way I have been doing this is by simply not responding to comments
that annoy me. By not dignifying the comment with a reply or a defense,
I can keep my stress levels lower. Of course, this is not easy, and it
takes a lot of practice!
The other way is through creating an auric shield. To do this, I imagine

Subject: [FairfieldLife] Well, aakaasha and Dark Matter / Energy?
It seems possible that aakaasha is almost equivalent with
Dark Energy / Matter.
Why?
First of all, in Sanskrit, the prefix 'aa-' (different from the
negative prefix 'a-') reverses the meaning at least in connection
with verbs of going and giving. So
gam = to go; aa-gam = to come (cf. aagama)
daa (duh) = to give; aa-daa = to take
One of the meanings of the verb 'kaash' seems to be 'to shine'.
So, perhaps 'aa-kaash' could mean 'shine inwards', and
'aakaasha' 'stuff, that shines inwards', and thus seems
non-existent outwards??
Almost everybody even in Minnesota might know by now, that
Dark Energy *accelerates* the expansion of our Universe.
The word 'brahman' (nominative singular neuter: brahma;
masculine: brahmaa) is derived from the root 'bRh' (~ brih).
One of its meanings is 'to expand':
bRh 2 or %{bRMh} cl. 1. P. (Dha1tup. xvii , 85) %{bRMhati} (also %{-te}
S3Br. and %{bRhati} AV. ; pf. %{babarha} AV. ; A. p. %{babRhANa4} RV.) , to be

According to Tantra, *practice* is the enlightened state; it's not a state other than normal state of awareness, since you were enlightened from birth. Sitting in meditation is what Siddhas do. Bhairitu: There is no point in doing sadhana if you are enlightened from birth... All Sddhas meditate every day even after they realize that they have been enlightened since birth. You can be in an enlightened state, but you still need to burn up your accumulated karma. Siddhas do this and call it 'tapas' in order to burn up the residual samskaras, in order to avoid future rebirth. The historical Buddha lived to be eighty years old and he meditated every day, even though he became a Buddha at age thirty-two. Why? Sitting in a meditative pose IS the enlightened state! If your mind is able to settle naturally of its own accord, and if you find you are inspired simply to rest in its pure awareness, then you do not need any method of meditation.

But mainly in my post I was making a point about positivity to negativity ratios as regards human happiness. My guess is that a couple with a high compatability number, compatible kuja doshas and placements of rahu ketu axis, would be much more likely to spontaneously generate that 5 to 1 ratio. OTHO, I've heard stories of people with high compatability numbers plus murhurta for auspicious wedding date who still got divorced. And people with low compatability whose marriage thrived.

The memorial will be inaugurated by Jyotishpeethadheeshwara Jagatguru Shankaracharya Swami Vasudevanand Saraswati, of Badrikashram, Himalaya. The devotees of Maharishi include many famous personalities. Maharishi Yogi , who died on February 5, 2008 at his residence in Netherlands, was cremated at his ashram at Arail, the opposite side of Sangam. It was then announced that a huge memorial, having over 1000 Kalash (a circular mound over the temple roof) with golden plating and executed by Indian and German architects, would be built at the spot. Giving details, Raja Harris Kaplan, in charge of India for the global country of world peace, and Dr Girish Chandra Varma told TOI that the Smarak would be unveiled on February 15, i.e, Basant Panchmi. The architect of the Samadhi is M/S Chhaganlal Rewashankar Sompura of Gujarat, presently headed by Nipam Sompura, whose family has designed many temples and buildings. Along with him, Dr Eike Hartmann from the Institute of Vedic City Planning, Maharishi University of Management ment , Holland, has also put in tireless efforts in building the memorial, said Dr Girish Chandra Varma. The memorial has been built at a cost of Rs 40 crore. The Maharishi Smarak will be a place of pilgrimage, the source of knowledge and inspiration for future generations and along with Shankaracharya Swami Vasudevanand Saraswati of Badrikashram, Himalaya, many other seers will attend the function, said Harris. Along with them, Dr Tony Nadar, known as Maharaja Nader Raam, the first sovereign ruler of Maharishi's global country of world peace, and around 20 other Rajas, each for different fields and in charge of different countries and eight ministers of the Global Country of World Peace, will attend the function, he added. The outer diameter of the structure spans for 108 feet by 108 feet while the height is 81 metres. The top of the structure would have 1008 Kalash, all having gold plating. The smarak will be directly connected to the main road running besides the Ganga while the main entrance will have gopurams (gateways) from three directions. The road to the memorial will have 12 mandaps. Each of these mandap would depict 12 areas of teaching taught by Maharishi. The entire structure has been made from stone, wood and copper clamps. The interiors have been furnished by marble. TOI visited the memorial and saw that it's nearing completion; mansions have beautifully carved, the pillars made of marble and the dome has beautiful carvings. The surroundings of the memorial are being decked up for the big occasion. Although Harris did not confirm if celebrities like award-winning filmmaker and musician David Lynch would be attending the Maha Kumbh, sources said they could come on the occasion. It is not about any western (or eastern) celebrity coming to Kumbh, it is that a Smarak of total vedic knowledge is being inaugurated, inspired by Maharishi Mahesh Yogi in the holy tradition line of Sri Shankara. For over 50 years the Maharishi propagated the actual experience and understanding of the Vedas, of total knowledge, of atma and the self to millions of people, Harris said.

[FairfieldLife] Re: Well, aakaasha and Dark Matter / Energy? 2 ques to Card
The basic word is 'lingam' (as in shiva-lingam). The pronoun
'tat' (that, it) is here best to be interpreted as representing
the genitive (English possessive) case; so, 'tallingam' (more
accurately: tallin.gam, sandhi for tat + lin.gam) would mean 'its lingam'
(substituting an appropriate translation for lingam); 'lingaat' is so called
ablative case form from 'lingam', corresponding for instance the preposition
'from' in English; often also 'because of'. HTH...

Subject: [FairfieldLife] Well, aakaasha and Dark Matter / Energy?
Â
It seems possible that aakaasha is almost equivalent with
Dark Energy / Matter.
Why?
First of all, in Sanskrit, the prefix 'aa-' (different from the
negative prefix 'a-') reverses the meaning at least in connection
with verbs of going and giving. So
gam = to go; aa-gam = to come (cf. aagama)
daa (duh) = to give; aa-daa = to take
One of the meanings of the verb 'kaash' seems to be 'to shine'.
So, perhaps 'aa-kaash' could mean 'shine inwards', and
'aakaasha' 'stuff, that shines inwards', and thus seems
non-existent outwards??
Almost everybody even in Minnesota might know by now, that
Dark Energy *accelerates* the expansion of our Universe.
The word 'brahman' (nominative singular neuter: brahma;
masculine: brahmaa) is derived from the root 'bRh' (~ brih).
One of its meanings is 'to expand':
bRh 2 or %{bRMh} cl. 1. P. (Dha1tup. xvii , 85) %{bRMhati} (also %{-te}
S3Br. and %{bRhati} AV. ; pf. %{babarha} AV. ; A. p. %{babRhANa4} RV.) , to
be thick , grow great or strong , increase (the finite verb only with a
prep.): Caus. %{bRMhayati} , %{-te} (also written %{vR-}) , to make big or
fat or strong , increase , ***expand*** , further , promote MBh. Katha1s.

aakaashas tallin.gaat (tat + ling-gaat)

The meaning of the smiley face. While I seriously doubt that you understood this meaning, I shall riff on it anyway, just for FUN. :-) The smiley face is an artifact of the early days of what we now know as the Internet. Back in those early days, for those who were not There Then, it was called Arpanet, and it was populated by people who were mainly programmers, and thus somewhat...uh...humor-deprived. Those who were...uh...somewhat *less* humor-deprived found that people were reacting Seriously to things they had said that were on the other side of the galaxy from anything they considered Serious, and sought a remedy for this perplexing problem. And thus was born the smiley face. The smiley face is a remedial educational device, designed to remind people who take themselves Far Too Seriously that not everyone shares their particular sense of humor or lack thereof. Its creator cites its creation as a fed-up reminder that, Hey...I'm having FUN here...why aren't you? The original smiley face paradigm was meant as a reminder that people may say things that make you completely uptight and that plunge you into a reactive state in which you get perturbed or angry or whatever and feel that you have to get All Serious On Their Asses in reply...uh...that you don't necessarily have to Be That Way. The original smiley face paradigm was supposed to be interpreted as an indication that the poster was having FUN while posting the things you found so objectionable, and that if you just Lightened The Fuck Up, you might be able to have FUN with them, too. Then, as now, it is often misinterpreted. The Lightened Up tend to use it anyway, as part of their compassionate Bodhisattva Vow-like quest to help others Lighten Up, too. Now you know. :-)

I believe that I may be able to act as if, if the knowingness of my
first person ontology fails me at any given time.ÃÂ

Dear Bob, my shield of human-ness has taken a lot of hits of
late and I am trying on a new reality - that of emulating Share's approach
to me and all others' she has determined are exhibiting negativity -
particularly of the nasty and sniping variety.  I found this treasure
tonight (under the heading Auric Shield) on an internet healing site, so I
know that it has a lot of street cred.  Share has mastered this
technique and I think she may have written these exact words, in fact (the
ones in the first paragraph.)ÂÂ
What this means is for me is: no more attempts to creatively
insult; no more cynicism or irony; no helping others help themselves
with pseudo-insightful observations; no more self-serving, creepy humor.
 Now, you must realize, I've been practicing and learning all these
important skills right here, but I have seen the gemstone of therapeutic
wonderment and have had a change of being. ÂÂ
The heart on the sleeve shield I have been using is covered in
blood spatter and must go in for repair; the breaches in my security
resulted in dramatics of grandiose proportions over the holidays (Share,
poor woman, had to weather the bulk of my distress); I have been kicked out
of the inner circle of my favorite cute (I mean cult) leader, who has
apparently retired to the sandy beaches of somewhere for more
introspection.  ÂÂ
I am going to visualize an auric shield, as described below
(paragraph 2) and go forth into the wide world of wonderfulness; it is an
apt consequence to my many irritating digressions from love and logic that
FFL so patiently and compassionately allowed me to display, as I flailed
and wallowed my way back, these past 2 years, to a state where I believe
that I may be able to act as if, if the knowingness of my first person
ontology fails me at any given time.ÂÂ
My astrological chart tells me that February is the month for me
to move to the front lines, go where the action is, feel the fear and do it
anyway, take up drawing, unpack the clothes, become accountable, raise my
standards, take care of business, etc., etc., etc.ÂÂ
I guess I say all this to say that my recovery from cluelessness
and cynicism is likely to be of painfully long duration, but I am confident
that my auric shield will protect us both, and I promise that when you
call my name, I will be there (I do tend to run a bit late, but I'll work
on that too), to distract and dramatize as needed.  Love, Emily. ÂÂ

I will miss you, Emily. Thank you for finding us and sharing the beautiful
person that you are. Your phase transition, a journey from puddle to cougar,
has been stunning to witness. You are an amazing person, perhaps one of the
most brilliant women to grace this forum. I hope you're not *really* going
away, not very far for very long, and you'll say, Ha Ha, just kidding, because
I'm creepy that way. Love, RD.

she may
not be as clueless as I am, but I'm sure she's a lot more cynical

Dear Bob, my shield of human-ness has taken a lot of hits of late
and I am trying on a new reality - that of emulating Share's approach
to me and all others' she has determined are exhibiting negativity -
particularly of the nasty and sniping variety. ÃÂ I found this
treasure tonight (under the heading Auric Shield) on an internet
healing site, so I know that it has a lot of street cred. ÃÂ Share
has mastered this technique and I think she may have written these
exact words, in fact (the ones in the first paragraph.)ÃÂ
What this means is for me is:ÃÂ no more attempts to creatively
insult; no more cynicism or irony; noÃÂ helping others help
themselves with pseudo-insightful observations; no more self-serving,
creepy humor. ÃÂ Now, you must realize, I've been practicing and
learning all these important skills right here, but I have seen the
gemstone of therapeutic wonderment and have had a change of being. ÃÂ
The heart on the sleeve shield I have been using is covered in blood
spatter and must go in for repair; the breaches in my security
resulted in dramatics of grandiose proportions over the holidays
(Share, poor woman, had to weather the bulk of my distress); I have
been kicked out of the inner circle of my favorite cute (I mean
cult) leader, who has apparently retired to the sandy beaches of
somewhere for more introspection. ÃÂ ÃÂ
I am going to visualize an auric shield, as described below (paragraph
2) and go forth into the wide world of wonderfulness; it is an apt
consequence to my many irritating digressions from love and logic that
FFL so patiently and compassionately allowed me to display, as I
flailed and wallowed my way back, these past 2 years, to a state where
I believe that I may be able to act as if, if the knowingness of my
first person ontology fails me at any given time.ÃÂ
My astrological chart tells me that February is the month for me to
move to the front lines, go where the action is, feel the fear and do
it anyway, take up drawing, unpack the clothes, become accountable,
raise my standards, take care of business, etc., etc., etc.ÃÂ
I guess I say all this to say that my recovery from cluelessness and
cynicism is likely to be of painfully long duration, but I am
confident that my auric shield will protect us both, and I promise
that when you call my name, I will be there (I do tend to run a bit
late, but I'll work on that too), to distract and dramatize as needed.

These two Books are even better! ### Two Books on Higher States of Consciousness ### [The profound development of consciousness...] 2 New Books! #1 Invincible America Assembly Experiences of Higher States of Consciousness of Course Participants In Invincible America Assembly these experiences are correlated with both the ancient Vedic Literature and modern science. The goal of the assembly is to enliven the holistic, nourishing values of Natural Law inherent in the Unified Filed of Natural Law, which is the field of Pure Consciousness, the source of all the Laws of Nature and all aspects of the universe. As such the experiences in this book represent not only a remarkable demonstration of the development of higher states of consciousness, but also a breakthrough in science and technologya means for creating lasting peace and invincibility in any nation. #2 Reflections on the Source Poems from the Invincible America Assembly In Reflections on the Source experiences are recorded that are among the most profound recorded in any tradition, in any era of world history. They begin with the experience of the treasure of treasures withinthe field of infinite silencethe Selfand progress to the experience of the flow of dynamism in the field of silence, with waves of bliss, unbounded expansion of awareness, waves of love and devotion, and rising unity with the near and far environment. $5 off if you buy both together as one purchase! --- In FairfieldLife@yahoogroups.com, John wrote: Emily, Yes, he's very intuitive and helpful.
