I had downloaded them a while ago after reading an interview with Jerry Seinfeld in which he said a few things I thought were interesting. Sadly, he seems to have said everything interesting he has to say *in* that interview, because he certainly didn't come up with anything in the clips I watched. My fault, actually, for even watching. I knew going into it that it would in one sense be re-runs of Seinfeld, with a bunch of self-obsessed people talking about themselves as if we should find them interesting just because they find themselves interesting. But I foolishly thought that a few of the people might actually *be* interesting. Bzt. Out of about a dozen of these clips I watched, the only guests I found the least bit interesting were Ricky Gervais and Tina Fey. I was actually hoping for some quick-witted banter between fast-thinking comedians, but Nooo. Color me so disappointed that I'm not going to turn Nabby's links above back into links, so that other people don't waste their precious time like I did... This is NOT an anti-TM thing, as Nabby and others will try to characterize it, BTW. I have nothing against Seinfeld or Leno (although the latter has much better taste in cars). I was actually hoping for better, which is why I downloaded the clips in the first place. Leno was actually fast on his feet mentally in ways that Seinfeld never approached in the clip of them I watched. It's just that my reaction to all of it was just like my reaction to seeing an old episode of Seinfeld these days: What on EARTH must I have been thinking to have liked this stuff back then? My standards must have been really low.

I turned it off midway through. When it comes to comedians, I like mental quickness, being able to springboard off of someone else's thoughts and words and just run with it. I saw only a few moments of this in the clips I watched. The other person -- whether it was Jerry or one of his guests -- jumped on the improv cue and ran with it, but never for more than a couple of exchanges each. Then they petered out and couldn't continue. I guess what set the bar for me for comedy was watching people like Robin Williams, who is simply a brain on fire in some of his exchanges. He can wing it like no one else I've ever met (with, oddly enough, a near-exception being made for the Rama guy, who was also lightning-fast in his mental reflexes, and sometimes just as funny). Here's a little example, from a heavily-edited version of the bit Robin did on Inside The Actors Studio. The show is normally an hour long; Robin's episode was two hours long, because he just took over and ran with it, and the result was too good to edit down to an hour. This edit shows a few examples of the quickness I'm looking for in comedy repartee. If you don't have time for the full edited clip, start at about the 9 minute mark, where Robin demonstrates what it's like to think like him. :-) http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=joDGq1HYYRk http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=joDGq1HYYRk
[FairfieldLife] Re: Comedians in Cars Getting Coffee
Have to run for work, will watch it when time. The Kramer interview wasn't as nimble and quick as the one with Jay Leno who took off in all directions and was really funny. We don't get his shows over here, only occasionally the other fellow from New York but I admit he seems to be a very funny guy. As you know I'm not saying that just because he's a long-time TM'er :-)

They are working on a level we aren't aware of Perhaps Nature wants there to be a war, in which case we are helping anyway War can get worse when we intervene because the deep seated stresses start to come out and that causes even more disruption There must be more stress in the Syrian collective consciousness than we realised, double your donations!

[FairfieldLife] TV Musings
Just for the heck of it, because I've got the day off today and I'm sitting in a cafe right now taking advantage of the relatively clement weather and the sun, but I've gotta write about *something* for it to qualify as a cafe writing break, so I guess TV is it. I don't know about anyone else, but TABB (Time After Breaking Bad) has been a real bitch. That series was so consistently excellent that it really gave you something to look forward to every week. About the only mainstream shows that have managed to fill that I'll watch them every week no matter what void are Justified, True Detective, Person Of Interest, and Lost Girl. I still give Agents Of Shield a try from time to time, hoping it will get better, but so far it hasn't. Sigh. Among new shows that I've stumbled upon, I'm giving a UK series called The Musketeers a shot, but I doubt I'll continue. I'm also watching a series about pirates called Black Sails. This one I may continue watching. It's a prequel to Robert Louis Stevenson's Treasure Island, showing the origins of Captain Flint and John Silver. Think the period authenticity, violence, sex, nudity, good actors, and production values that Spartacus brought to gladiators, only done with pirates. Sexy, fun, and so far replete with good performances from the actors. Go figure. What I'll be delving into soon, however, is a new set of great TV from Scandinavia and other places around the world uploaded by a guy who has become one of my trusted resources in the pirate 'verse. I'll download anything he puts up, because so far *everything* he's ever posted has been great. He turned me on to the original The Killing and Borgen and Bron-Broen. So when he uploads a batch of new stuff, at this point I just download it and look forward to watching it. The first of these new potential gems I'll watch later today is from Wales, and all dialog was actually filmed twice, because they had to do it first in Welsh, then in English. It's called Hinterlands and I've only seen the first few minutes of it, but so far it'll be watchable just for the cinematography alone. There's the full set of Bron-Broen 2 with BBC subtitles, of course, which I'll watch again to compare it with the fan-subbed version I had earlier. There's a well-reviewed series from Israel called Prisoners Of War (Hatufim) that I look forward to, and a series of mini-series specials called Arne Dahl. Not to mention a few movies I'd never heard of, but will watch simply because he uploaded them. When you find someone with excellent taste, you've really gotta appreciate that. Anyone out there watching anything interesting?

[FairfieldLife] Advanced Techniques
The late Brahmacharya Satyanand had been a disciple of Swami Brahmananda Saraswati for many years. He later worked with MMYto help bring TM to the world. In the late 60' and early 70's, Satyanand used to travel about giving out advanced techniques for the MMY - I got the night technique when on a residence course with Jerry Jarvis in 1968 at SIMS in Berkely. Later, in 1971, when I was passing through India, I visited Satyanand at his house in Rishikesh. [image: Inline image 1] Satyanand at Lake Arrowhead, 1967 Apparently, Satyanand passed away sometime in the 90's. He was one of my teachers - a real yogi and a siddha. I still practice the night technique I learned from him - if anyone wants to enjoy a good night's rest, sleep like a baby, arise feeling totally refreshed, without an alarm clock at a precise hour, the night technique is second-to-none. This technique is mentioned in Patanjali's Yoga Sutras. Satyanand Answers Questions Audio: http://youtu.be/XFGodIu25RQ

Re: [FairfieldLife] RE: Fairfield's spiritual and refined alternative to the Sunday Stupid-Bowl
But Xeno, novels can express a character's inner world more directly whereas in a movie, the degree to which this is accurately displayed is dependent on the director's skill and the actor's skill. Plus a lot can be lost in the viewer's interpretation of a facial expression or behavior. When I got into movies based on Jane Austin's novels, I thoroughly enjoyed Becoming Jane with Anne Hathaway as Jane and James McAvoy as the man who inspires her heroes. Of course, I'm sure there are also books on this topic...

Having seen various versions of Pride and Prejudice in film or video, I decided to read the book. It is interesting to see how movie makers adjust the story to fit in whatever allotted time they have, and how they shape the emotional tenor of the story to appear to the audience. Almost always there are cuts to the story, combining moments to make it fit. Also storytelling in a movie has a strong visual element that is left to the imagination in the book, but must be fleshed out in the movie and this requires adapting the story as well. TV series generally have more time to play with and do not have to compress the story line as much. A good adaptation does not necessarily mean the production is faithful to the original novel. Recently I watched 'The Adjustment Bureau' which I felt was a pleasing adaptation of Philip K. Dick's short story 'The Adjustment Team', even though the film deviated considerably from Dick's story, the basic idea was kept intact. Certain commercial considerations obviously dictated the changes. In the movie, the couple have just met, and thus have the potential for romance, but in Dick's story, they are married, no romance here but an ongoing typical relationship. This change, adding an evolving romance in New York City to the story rather than keeping a staid one in a much bleaker and more constricted setting clearly makes appeal to the mass of movie goers, but at the same time it gives the writers a means to extend the briefness of the short story into something that works better in the length of a motion picture and add stronger emotional challenges. They also subtly altered the basic premise to give the story slightly more obviously religious overtones than the Dick story, which would resonate with, at least, audiences with Christian influences, and in some ways a bit more mysterious, as the character known as the 'Old Man' in the Dick story is concrete and appears, while in the movie adaptation, the 'Old Man' is renamed 'The Chairman' and does not appear. The director decided that he would let the audience fill in with their imagination rather than make a literal translation of the book. In comparing Pride and Prejudice with the Adjustment Bureau (as movies), powerful inhibitions and private opinions keep the lovers apart until the end, while in the Adjustment Bureau, powerful external forces, a metaphor for the power of nature or if you prefer, the actions of a god and his/her minions keep the lovers apart until the end. In the latter movie, the theme of determinism versus free will is also quite strong, and kept somewhat ambiguous. Instead of watching videos, you could read the books and let your imagination fill in an entire world whereas movies leave little unstated or unseen for the most part.

I don't know about anyone else, but TABB (Time After Breaking Bad) has been a real bitch. That series was so consistently excellent that it really gave you something to look forward to every week. About the only mainstream shows that have managed to fill that I'll watch them every week no matter what void are Justified, True Detective, Person Of Interest, and Lost Girl. I still give Agents Of Shield a try from time to time, hoping it will get better, but so far it hasn't. Sigh. Among new shows that I've stumbled upon, I'm giving a UK series called The Musketeers a shot, but I doubt I'll continue. I'm also watching a series about pirates called Black Sails. This one I may continue watching. It's a prequel to Robert Louis Stevenson's Treasure Island, showing the origins of Captain Flint and John Silver. Think the period authenticity, violence, sex, nudity, good actors, and production values that Spartacus brought to gladiators, only done with pirates. Sexy, fun, and so far replete with good performances from the actors. Go figure. What I'll be delving into soon, however, is a new set of great TV from Scandinavia and other places around the world uploaded by a guy who has become one of my trusted resources in the pirate 'verse. I'll download anything he puts up, because so far *everything* he's ever posted has been great. He turned me on to the original The Killing and Borgen and Bron-Broen. So when he uploads a batch of new stuff, at this point I just download it and look forward to watching it. The first of these new potential gems I'll watch later today is from Wales, and all dialog was actually filmed twice, because they had to do it first in Welsh, then in English. It's called Hinterlands and I've only seen the first few minutes of it, but so far it'll be watchable just for the cinematography alone. There's the full set of Bron-Broen 2 with BBC subtitles, of course, which I'll watch again to compare it with the fan-subbed version I had earlier. There's a well-reviewed series from Israel called Prisoners Of War (Hatufim) that I look forward to, and a series of mini-series specials called Arne Dahl. Not to mention a few movies I'd never heard of, but will watch simply because he uploaded them. When you find someone with excellent taste, you've really gotta appreciate that. Anyone out there watching anything interesting?

Re: [FairfieldLife] TV Musings
My daughter is also mightily in love with anything with Benedict Cumberbatch (And gets mightily pissed at me for calling him Benedict Cumberbund) so I have also watched and enjoyed Sherlock - she was somewhat chagrined when I sent her the Guardian article on the Cumberbatch family fortunes being forged on the backs of slaves in Barbados.

The first of these new potential gems I'll watch later today is from Wales, and all dialog was actually filmed twice, because they had to do it first in Welsh, then in English. It's called Hinterlands and I've only seen the first few minutes of it, but so far it'll be watchable just for the cinematography alone. There's the full set of Bron-Broen 2 with BBC subtitles, of course, which I'll watch again to compare it with the fan-subbed version I had earlier. There's a well-reviewed series from Israel called Prisoners Of War (Hatufim) that I look forward to, and a series of mini-series specials called Arne Dahl.

Re: [FairfieldLife] TV Musings
In the US the networks seem to go mostly on hiatus from December through January. So there is new stuff starting up this month. Since I booted my welfare recipient: Comcast, I can't just tune in to anything anymore. Most good series were one either HBO or Showtime and neither of those have the balls yet to start at least their own streaming service that you can subscribe two without having a cable or satellite account. However that may change when these companies need to renew with those services. So the hiatus meant that I caught up on some additional shows and I also gave The Following a second chance since they added that to Netflix WI. The new season which just started is available no Hulu so I can watch it that way if I like. I'm still watching Helix just to see where it goes and catching as can the final season of the Syfy version of Being Human. The first couple episodes were available as a subscriber hook after they were shown on the network but now it is back to a month wait. Mainly I look for movies though and supplement Netflix and the few good movies on Hulu with Redbox rentals. There is where I get the films that won't be on Netflix for quite awhile if ever.

Re: [FairfieldLife] RE: Amanda Knox is Found Guilty Again
One never knows what will attract some people - I met a young man the other day who had just graduated high school and was all pumped up to go to MUM - he and his mother had done the visitors weekend and everything. I asked how he found out about TM and he said he was looking at some Beatles videos on youtube and there was an advertisement for MUM. He wanted a spiritually based education and so he checked it out. Needless to say after an hour of talking with me he and his mother decided to look elsewhere for a school for him. Score one for the Light Side of the Force!!! What surprised me a good deal was in the conversation I mentioned the rajas and they had never heard of them. Not once during the entire Visitors Weekend did they see or hear anything of the rajas, who they are, how much it cost them to become rajas, nothing. Now they know about them, though as well as a few other little tidbits. Altogether a satisfying conversation.

Re: [FairfieldLife] RE: Amanda Knox is Found Guilty Again
People seem to like the TM school in Skelmersdale. I think the parents like it because of its reputation for good exam results and no trouble in the classrooms. I wonder how much of that is down to small class sizes but we'll see if it gets more popular. I'd send my kids there but for one thing: All the crap they inadvertently get taught. I was staying with friends and there son, who was good at maths and wanted to study physics, was telling his parents that he got an 'A' in Jyotish. I was speechless that hey are allowed to teach bollocks like that - probably a form of child abuse, or should be - I couldn't help thinking he'd have a hard time at a proper university with a grounding in cosmology as dubious as that! I needn't have worried though as next time I saw him he'd rejected the whole TM mythos and is now decently educated elsewhere.

I remember a guy named David who was from England at MIU - he as a very nice guy, kind of quiet and oddly had an English roommate who cussed almost non-stop and was always referring to the micks, the kikes, the spics and so on. He even called himself a limey.

Re: [FairfieldLife] RE: Amanda Knox is Found Guilty Again
Ann, I don't have the exact birth time for Amanda. I only have her birth date. But using other alternative techniques, I can see that there are various weaknesses in her chart. And she is now running the period of the Sun, which is weak due to being the lord of the 64th navamsha and the Atmakaraka. Since the Sun is the Atmakaraka, it means that the current period will test her character and resolve. Since the Sun is also the lord of the 64th navamsha, it means this period will be full of turmoils. But she does have one beneficial planet, Jupiter, which can help her. But it needs strengthening to get more benefits from the planet. That's why I recommended that she take up meditation to get the support of Nature. The future depends on many variables, which include past and present karma. The future is also dependent on the actions that she does to stay out of jail. I've already indicated these points. In the long run, she has no choice but to perform these actions. If not, she'll be in an Italian jail for a very long time.
[FairfieldLife] RE: Amanda Knox is Found Guilty Again
I'm sure the TMO would argue that it's a science and a perfect one at that - even though they don't use the right number of planets! Whether they would use the same argument to anyone outside of the movement is another matter. I suspect not, it's always difficult when beliefs shared among the faithful have to be explained to outsiders. And how would they even approach Tony Nader's weird discoveries about the ved and human physiology? It makesintelligent design look perfectly reasonable, maybe they could shoehorn it into biology somehow but it would be another form of child abuse as far as I'm concerned and just the sort of thing that, if it got into the press, would spell the end of consciousness based education! So I suspect that this stuff has been dropped and even the fact that yogic flying is supposed to be a form of levitation doesn't make it to the PTA. To teach astrology these days when there is so much pressure on kids to pass exams would be ridiculous. Even the TMO knows that, surely? ---In FairfieldLife@yahoogroups.com, s3raphita@... wrote: Re I don't even know if they are allowed to teach it in Skem anymore as its funded by the government now and ought to be teaching the national curriculum which is unlikely to include astrology.: Is it a free school (a charter school in the US)?

[FairfieldLife] RE: HC grants bail to Girish Verma
Which installation are you referring to ? While Maharaja's message was being read the rain came pouring down, but before closing the meeting Shankaracharya Ji gave his blessing to all. Success of the Smarak Inauguration Dr Girish Varma related how he had contacted an expert Pandit to ask about the significance of the heavy rain that curtailed the inaugural ceremony of the Maharishi Smarak on the 15th of February. The tradition of Smarak is that a Shivalingam is installed, which represents the person. Dr Varma asked the Pandit if rain should come or not (during or after the ceremony). The Pandit replied that rain HAS to come, and he quoted Slokas that say Varuna Devata has the right to the first Abhishek of the installed Shivalingam (i.e. rain should bathe the Shivalingam first, before any other liquid). He said the first drop of rain that falls on the Lingam completes the ceremony of inauguration. `Then your celebration is done'. Still not quite satisfied, Dr Varma then checked with a number of people whether the rain had actually fallen on the Shivalingam. It turned out from those who were there, that the first rain to enter through the unfinished roof had fallen directly on the top centre of the Shivalingam. He gave this fulfilling news to the Pandit, who said `You should feel Maharishi's presence is really in that Shivalinga. The inauguration is complete.'

Nothing has happened to Skelmersdale yet, it's still sitting there in the miserable northern rain and waiting for someone to build a new town a few miles to the east to mitigate the appalling 2 minute sunrise delay they are experiencing.

I am very surprised the TMO Brit National Leader (whomever that is) has not grabbed native son Russel Brand to lead a fund raising effort to get the millionaires and billionaires of Merrye Olde Englande to pour their hard inherited shillings into a fund to create that perfect vastu town. I mean, if they did there would be no crime, no sickness, no one would stub their toes leaving home since there would be no accidents, all relationships would be saatvicc and blissful, everyone would have plenty of money, the guv'ment would save a few quid by not having to pay for any health care since no one would be sick. I mean it would seem to potentially be the greatest weapon in the TMO's arsenal of public relations to get everyone in the world to buy into TM and all its programs! What's the hold up?!? Let's start the fundraising now, every shilling helps!

Re: [FairfieldLife] RE: Amanda Knox is Found Guilty Again
Michael, The events that happen in our lives are the results of past and present karma. As the old saying states: you reap what you sow. You can't blame the TM method or the TMO for all of the negative events that happen to a person. But meditation does help a person realize the solution and the necessary steps to achieve one's desires. This is due to attaining a higher state of consciousness, which is TC or samadhi. I've made an argument earlier this week that attaining samadhi is really a higher dimension above the basic space-time continuum. IOW, nature follows the desires of the knower who is placed in the highest dimension.

Michael, You were born under the sign of Virgo and the Moon is in the nakshatra of Rohini. The reason why you don't like MMY and the TMO is because Saturn and Rahu are placed in the 3rd house. These two malefic planets are opposing your 9th house, the field of dharma and higher knowledge. Also, you are now running the period of Saturn. That's why you're very vocal in your opposition of the organization. However, in October 2020, you will be running an excellent period of Mercury, which is exalted in your first house.

Uh, guys, it was a publicity stunt. They knew beforehand how much they were going to give him. The gold was for his further scientific work; he didn't get to keep it for his personal use. (And this was in 1998, pre-King Tony, pre-rajas; he was wearing a suit, not robes. Looked really silly sitting cross-legged in one pan of this giant scale, and he knew it.) He was paid for his researches with his weight in gold - I bet he stuffed himself with burgers and pizzas in the weeks before the weighing test. What a scurrilous accusation!!! You know good and well he just strapped on some ankle weights, borrowed a scuba divers weight belt to wear underneath his robes, might have had a vest with weights stuffed in the pockets under the raja's outfit too.

First, Kate and Will's press operations were taken away. And now, it would seem, their sartorial freedoms (well, Kate's, at least) have also been curbed from on high.

Apparently it was difficult to make out the design at a distance, but if you got real close, like during your initiation, anyone could see the tie had the naked dancing girl on it. Go figure. So, I wonder what Rama thought about that tie - Rama probably approved since he maybe thought the guy would recruit some new students that Rama could hit on. LoL!

Black T-shirts look good with denims too, and when you're sitting at a table at a cafe, people only see your top half, so they don't know if you have on black pants or not. The only real big decisions are long sleeve or short sleeve black T-shirt? Or, pocket T or no pocket? With a pocket T you carry your cell phone in an easy to access place, so the phone is always available with a quick grab. Other people just like to have their phone on the table out in plain sight.

People vote for the Democrats because they don't trust the Republicans anymore. Look at the mess the Bush administration made. BTW, my congressman is retiring so the position is open and no I'm not running. We've got some younger folks who are interested. It's more their future anyway.

Of your shows, I'm watching Person of Interest and Justified. Another show that I've been enjoying is The Blacklist.

I don't know about anyone else, but TABB (Time After Breaking Bad) has been a real bitch. That series was so consistently excellent that it really gave you something to look forward to every week. About the only mainstream shows that have managed to fill that I'll watch them every week no matter what void are Justified, True Detective, Person Of Interest, and Lost Girl. I still give Agents Of Shield a try from time to time, hoping it will get better, but so far it hasn't. Sigh. Among new shows that I've stumbled upon, I'm giving a UK series called The Musketeers a shot, but I doubt I'll continue. I'm also watching a series about pirates called Black Sails. This one I may continue watching. It's a prequel to Robert Louis Stevenson's Treasure Island, showing the origins of Captain Flint and John Silver. Think the period authenticity, violence, sex, nudity, good actors, and production values that Spartacus brought to gladiators, only done with pirates. Sexy, fun, and so far replete with good performances from the actors. Go figure. What I'll be delving into soon, however, is a new set of great TV from Scandinavia and other places around the world uploaded by a guy who has become one of my trusted resources in the pirate 'verse. I'll download anything he puts up, because so far *everything* he's ever posted has been great. He turned me on to the original The Killing and Borgen and Bron-Broen. So when he uploads a batch of new stuff, at this point I just download it and look forward to watching it. The first of these new potential gems I'll watch later today is from Wales, and all dialog was actually filmed twice, because they had to do it first in Welsh, then in English. It's called Hinterlands and I've only seen the first few minutes of it, but so far it'll be watchable just for the cinematography alone. There's the full set of Bron-Broen 2 with BBC subtitles, of course, which I'll watch again to compare it with the fan-subbed version I had earlier. There's a well-reviewed series from Israel called Prisoners Of War (Hatufim) that I look forward to, and a series of mini-series specials called Arne Dahl. Not to mention a few movies I'd never heard of, but will watch simply because he uploaded them. When you find someone with excellent taste, you've really gotta appreciate that. Anyone out there watching anything interesting?

[FairfieldLife] RE: Deploying Meditators for Peace
This was sent by e-mail to me by a FFL lurker. Jim was someone I knew even from High school. Was in one of my brother's grades then. A bunch of us were and still are Iowa meditators from back then together. Just wondering, where else did groups go to meditate in coherence campaigning for peace? [paste] I remember Jim Altmaier telling me about how he went to Iran. The story was quite fascinating. They were in a hotel. It was at the beginning of the revolution--right before Khomeni took over. So probably 78 or 79. The story Jim told is that someone pounded on their door and it was some of the Shah's army. They thought they had seen a camera taking pictures from their window. They pointed guns at them and threatened them until they found out they were Americans. Then it was It's all right. We're here to protect you. Some time after that I know that MMY quit sending people to trouble spots because it was so dangerous and he didn't want to put our precious sidhas in danger. I wish Jim were still with us and would tell us more about it. Ecuador too. Somebody contacted me today about having gone to Ecuador with a team testing the extended Global Maharishi Effect. Anybody go on a project team to Africa?What other countries or places? Anywhere else?

(Iran, Rhodesia, Nicaragua) Philippines? Lebanon? Belgrade? Thailand? Around Soviet Russia. Nepal . . What dates? What other places did TM movement meditators with bags packed go off to on these campaigns? For a period of time movement meditators would have their bags packed and go; small and large teams of meditators deployed to go meditate. I am curious where and how long the list of places is, and when. Just wondering for context of history. Please reply if you shipped out on one of these or know as to where they went. Time frame of date too. Any clandestine ones? Thanks in advance, -Buck “Maharishi test this formula by sending Governors of the Age of Enlightenment to the most trouble spots on earth to create the Maharishi Effect and calm down violence.” Om .

Om yes, and eminent scholars. FairfieldLife and Fairfield and TM is quite topical to quite a lot of people lurking. And, who do you think reads this place? Your audience? Who do you really write for when you post? Some writers should rightfully be embarrassed. -Buck awoelflebater writes: authfriend writes: Visiting scholars?? Of what? From where? I know, right?!
