 Of course it will.
 

 I happened to also be thinking about all the weird phenomenon that exists, all 
according the laws of physic, albeit, laws not typically seen.
 

 I think it was Ann who post the video showing some of that weird phenomena. 
 

 So, why not human levitation?  You may say it defies the laws of physics, but 
so would most of that weird phenomena, at least apparantly.
 

 Nothing in that video showed a breach of the laws of physics, I didn't even 
realise that was the intention of it (if that's what it was). It was selection 
of the sort of cool but invisible laws that underlie our world, nothing spooky 
about it - once you know what the laws are. 
 

 Gravity is currently understood to be, not a force but  an effect of how mass 
affects space and time. All things are in motion and following a straight path 
unless acted upon, the presence of any object bends light (and everything else) 
around itself by pulling space/time into a curve. Gravity causes us to fall 
towards the centre of the Earth, we aren't pulled there. I eagerly await a 
demonstration of a way to reverse that apparently inescapable phenomena.
 

 Cue Willytex
 

 But this guy was studied for fifteen days, under the surveillance of cameras.
 

 Oh, like no one else ever has! Some "breatharian" was observed for ages but it 
was a journalist who discovered him sneaking off to the kitchen for a chicken 
sandwich in the middle of the night.
 

 His explanation: Nectar that flows through a hole in his palate.
 

 What explanation from those who would typically poo poo this type of thing due 
to lack of evidence?
 

 Was the nectar studied? Or even extracted? If it was you would expect it to be 
front page news everywhere as it could be synthesised and, hey presto! World 
hunger is cured but the doctor in the video didn't mention it. What sort of 
process would replace the cells in his body as they died, with no nutrition 
coming in? Where does the energy come from to maintain mental functions like 
consciousness let alone just walking around for 70 years? Without a transfer of 
energy from food coming in from outside the body doesn't work, even this 
"nectar" must have some sort of physical origin. 
 

 Sentences like this:
 

 This sounds crazy, but let’s think about it for a minute.  What do we need 
from food? The minerals, which are made out of molecules, which are made out of 
atoms, which are made out of quarks, which are made out of superstrings, which 
is ultimately part of the Unified Field or Superstring Field.  At a fundamental 
level of nature, nutrition is really just vibrating strings of non-local 
energy.   Could he somehow be receiving this information somehow without the 
need to physically ingest food?  
 This is the sort of drivel that infests the internet, I get a ton of it my FB 
inbox every morning but an occasional reader who may just have seen these words 
on TV or in a newspaper might think there is some sort of reasoned 
justification going on here. But there isn't. 
 

 File under Cargo Cult. 
 

 Some people will believe anything and look for justification instead of 
explanation.

Re: [FairfieldLife] What you are ignorant about will kill you

[fleetwood_macnche...@yahoo.com [FairfieldLife]]

If someone blew away my house and family, or my whole neighborhood, with a 
missile, or a "smart bomb", I'd want revenge. The soldiers say that on the 
ground, for every civilian killed, this results in the creation of two enemies. 
Do the math. I think anyone looks like a fanatic, when the war is in their 
backyard.

 What I Have Learned Since 9-11 
http://www.citizenwarrior.com/2008/09/what-i-have-learned-since-9-11.html 
  
 I was on my way back from a vacation when the first plane hit the World Trade 
Center. My wife and I were listening to music on a CD and enjoyed our ride 
home, and knew nothing about it. When we got home, we listened to our messages. 
The first two were from family members hysterically crying, "We've been 
attacked! America is at war!"
 
 My first thought, of course, was the ever-eloquent, "What the fuck!?!"
 
 We watched the news, and I was baffled. Why would anyone do such a thing? I 
was about as ignorant about this as someone can be. But I'm a learner. It's 
what I like to do. And since that day, I've learned a lot.
 
 I learned that this was not an isolated incident. Attacks had become more 
frequent and more deadly over the years. I just hadn't noticed.
 
 And I eventually learned that this is not just a problem of generic 
"terrorism," but a global movement based on Citizen Warrior: The Quran's Last 
Word on Non-Muslims 
http://www.citizenwarrior.com/2010/09/qurans-last-word-on-non-muslims.html and 
the example of Muhammad 
http://www.inquiryintoislam.com/2010/08/sacredness-of-mohammads-example.html. I 
learned that Islam is a unique religion because it's a political system and a 
system of law as well as being what most people would call a religion. Its goal 
is world domination, it has explicit permission for (and approval of) violence 
in its holy books, and it is intolerant of non-Muslims. Its laws even include 
legally-imposed discrimination against non-Muslims (and all women). (Read more 
about that here 
http://www.inquiryintoislam.com/2010/11/basic-elements-of-islam.html.)
 
 I learned that an almost-uninterrupted jihad has been waged against 
non-Muslims for 1400 years 
http://www.citizenwarrior.com/2008/12/third-jihad.html. The attacks are near 
constant. So far since 9-11, Jihadis have carried out 23,795 
http://www.thereligionofpeace.com/index.html#Attacks deadly attacks. Most of us 
don't see it as a war. We see isolated attacks. If you take in the whole global 
view 
http://www.citizenwarrior.com/2007/09/these-arent-terrorist-attacks-this-is.html,
 however, or listen to the point of view of a Jihadi 
http://www.citizenwarrior.com/2008/09/what-is-jihadi.html, or read this 
http://thereligionofpeace.com/, you will see it for what it is: A global war — 
orthodox Muslims 
http://www.inquiryintoislam.com/2010/07/orthodox-versus-heterodox-muslims.html 
against everybody else.
 
 The majority of the conflicts in the world today consist of Jihadis 
http://www.citizenwarrior.com/2008/09/what-is-jihadi.html fighting non-Muslims 
or Muslims who are considered insufficiently Islamic. If you removed jihad from 
the world right now, it would be a fairly peaceful place.
 
 I also learned that one of the main reasons democracies have so much trouble 
dealing with Jihadis is because of an important conflict within democracies 
http://www.citizenwarrior.com/2007/09/why-now-islams-rise-explained.html. 
Specifically, most people in the free world believe 1) everyone has a right to 
worship as they wish, and 2) discrimination of any kind is wrong. These are 
important foundational principles of liberal democracies around the world.
 
 Why is this a problem? Because the simplest way to deal with Islam would be to 
discriminate against it. In other words, to openly admit Islam is unique 
(because of its political aspirations and religious duty to overthrow all other 
forms of law and government), and stop all concessions to Islam 
http://www.citizenwarrior.com/2008/08/concession-stand.html and roll back any 
concessions already made http://concess.blogspot.com/.
 
 We "can't do that" because it violates important values of our societies. Or 
does it necessarily? This dialog needs to happen and solutions need to be 
created for it. But of course, that can't happen as long as the majority of 
people in free countries remain ignorant of the most elementary facets of 
Islam. And it's not just ignorance. Many people have a real resistance

[FairfieldLife] Maharishi: When one starts TM, cruder values are replaced by finer values, speech is less sharp

[Dick Mays dickm...@lisco.com [FairfieldLife]]

Forwarded from: David Hooper 

9/21/14-Maharishi: When one starts TM, cruder values are replaced by finer 
values, speech is less sharp

"…Children do say, 'Now, Mummy today you haven't meditated.' When they find a 
little roughness [in the mother], they say, 'No, you should meditate.' Children 
remind mothers to meditate. [This is] the effect of Transcendental Meditation, 
the children know that when Mummy has meditated she doesn't mind their mischief 
so much. Their crude behavior is overlooked, and they're all loved more and 
more and more. It's recognized by the children that right from the moment one 
starts to meditate, cruder values begin to be replaced by finer values, and 
this is what is called virtue -- finer values of life, more delicate values of 
life, more 'yes' and less 'no's,' more acceptance, less rejection, more 
tolerance, less sharpness. Otherwise, one is sharp here and sharp here.

These sharp remarks even though true they don't help very much. Many people 
say, 'I am truthful and that's why people dislike me because I say something to 
their face.' Truth is not characterized by whips. If you speak truth, fine, the 
truth is there, but it should have some sweetness to it.

Manu, the first lawgiver to the human race, said about speech: 

'Satyāṁ brūyāt priyaṁ brūyāt na brūyāt satyam apriyam'  
Speak the truth, speak that which is sweet, don't speak the truth which is not 
sweet. 

Not that you can take liberty with the truth and massacre the whole field of 
behavior. Speak the simple, natural truth which is supporting life, which is 
nourishing life. Truth is always life-supporting if it is really truth, but it 
must come from a melted heart and not from a very unconcerned mind. No. 

So the moment TM begins, [there is] culture of the heart and culture of the 
mind,."

 To me, that kind of "normal business deceit" stuck in my craw -- even back

 Most of the early TMers were older people like Charles and Helen Lutes who

It's only when Jerry and Debbie Jarvis started SIMS that the younger generation

 Self defense begins in the mind and is greatly a function of our awareness of 
the surroundings in the outside world. Our ability to control the content of 
our mind under stress and our ability to remove ourselves as a "target" by our

The siddhi to use would be stambhan which "stuns" them.  There are more 
powerful siddhis that just keeps intruders away.

The problem is the will to fight. One of the reasons the ISIS is
able to win battles is a strong belief in a religious cause. It's
obvious why nobody has any boots on the ground in Iraq to fight ISIS
- there's no will to fight - that can compare to the extreme faith
faith of the ISIS jihadists. A radical faith in Islam trumps even
state nationalism. Nobody wants to fight a jihadist on the ground
when the insurgents are willing  to employ tactics up to and
including suicide missions and mass terrorism. 

The Caliph once nearly took over the whole of Europe until they were
beaten back over a period of a 500 years war. The problem this time
is that there are millions of potential jihadists already living
amongst us all over the planet. It may take a long time, maybe 1000
years, to work out the implications of this Islamic insurgency. A
radical violent mind-set isn't reversed overnight and a mind can be
turned in just a few minutes using advanced forms of mind control
and suggestion.

Self defense begins in the mind and is greatly a function of our awareness of 
the surroundings in the outside world. Our ability to control the content of 
our mind under stress and our ability to remove ourselves as a "target" by our 
behavior. Many teachers of self-defense only give lip service to mental 
preparation and spend more time discussing physical tactics. Self defense is as 
much mental as it is physical.

Yes, our personality continues, and appropriately for each of us. It is meant 
to be that we continue to be ourselves. This idea that there is a prescribed 
way to act in a state of freedom, beyond what our natural desires tell us, is 
so weird - Reminds me of the new zombie craze, as if we are all to evolve, to 
our highest state, inside pale, over-vegetablized bodies, brows perpetually

Yeah, here is one from you 2001 bitching about the way Bevan and the boys 
treated you and other old time TM'ers - and here you are singing the same song 
and having learned nothing in your association with TMO over the years, still 
blabbering about how grand TM is and how its gonna save the world. The Movement 
can't save itself, much less the world.


The Meditating Community

I meditate.  I am an old style field TM
Initiator and I am an 
old style movement Governor.  Like so many here I am a
meditator, 
fundamentally. 

In coming to Fairfield, most of us have come
here as TM 
meditators.  Some of us came as TM initiators. Some of
us came here 
as TM-Sidhas or some as TM Governors.   We have come
from many places 
and points.  From many points though, the common point
of the 
meditating community has been that we are here as
practicing 
meditators. 

We share a lot of history together.  Some of us
have been 
meditators of 30 and 40 years.  Many of us here are
mediators of 20 
or more years.   Many of 5, 10 or 15 years.  There are
a few new 
meditators today but the core of the movement
community here is a 
veteran group.

As a community we are in common as mediators. 
In common we 
have had much to draw on as meditators and then also
as initiators 
and Governors.  In numbers we have been a powerful
resource to draw 
on because of a strength of diversity we have brought
as meditators 
in community.   There is a huge diversity in our
group. 

We have a great community here.  Many of us have
watched it 
grow.  Many of us have worked to make it grow.  It has
been vibrant 
and a lot of fun to be in. 

Today, in recent years and times, it is apparent
to witness 
that there are many  many meditators living in
Fairfield  who are 
without place in the TM movement.  There are lots of
people who are 
old time long term meditators living here and also
around the country 
without place in the current movement.   It is a
curious thing that 
there can be hundreds and hundreds of meditators
living here in the 
town community who have little or no contact or
relationship to what 
today has become a small and shrinking enclave of the
movement 
community. 
We see these many people here when we do come
together to 
marry or bury our community.  We see each other up
town everywhere. 
We do not see each other so much on campus or in the
movement 
anymore.   As an event, probably the last truly
inclusive community 
group meditation was held last fall at the memorial
for Alex Grace 
held in the chapel.  It was a significant last moment
in the 
meditating community here. 

In effect,  as we are meditators in practice and
in heart we 
are without an organ of a movement.  In looking, there
is a huge 
opportunity, if the movement elite could see it, in
the base of the 
people who are here as meditators doing their
meditation and doing 
their TM-Sidhis as meditators.  The speculation for
all of us 
watching is whether there may be too much rigid pride
or too much arrogance 
inside the movement now to see what is here at hand. 
Possibly it is 
beyond the nature of character of too many in the
middle to recoup. 
There is always hope. 

With Best Regards,  -Doug Hamilton

 Well it can be a natural reaction to something wrong in the environment.  And 
as such your role in the script is to react such.  Just in enlightenment you 
will witness your reaction and not be attached to it.  It's not a time to think 
"I reacted so I am must not be enlightened yet."  That is confusion that some 
people seem to have.  We actually do keep "chopping wood and carrying water."
 
 Yet another major coincidence. I just finished writing to mac that we, too, 
we're going swimming [in the bay]. Now I can coincidentally report that my son 
and I chopped 1/2 cord yesterday. My bud at the hardware store came across a 
wood splitting wedge (sort of screw-shaped, but Big! He also tipped me off to 
attach a piece of leather to the sledgehammer. Works great! 
 We needn't carry wood, gotta well.

 I am not sure why the renter of the chairs needed to be told the reason for 
them not being returned, vs bought. As for a compensation, why would the 
renting company want or expect full price? Does your car insurance work that 
way? You seem to be looking for shit, but only finding straw. Dig harder - this 
completely misses the target, and your credibility suffers. Muckraking score: 
3/10. (3 because of mention of the fire).

I am not sure why this is a big deal. The renter would have insurance if "a 
lot" of the chairs burned up and so might the venue where the fire occurred. 
This just seems like a funny story to me. It doesn't really imply anything to 
me other than that no one seemed to be thinking straight at the time or the 
story was misconstrued in some way.
 
Here's an explanation of omitting the fire from the discussion:
 "These sharp remarks even though true they don't help very much. Many people 
say, 'I am truthful and that's why people dislike me because I say something to 
their face.' Truth is not characterized by whips. If you speak truth, fine, the 
truth is there, but it should have some sweetness to it.


 Manu, the first lawgiver to the human race, said about speech: 

'Satyāṁ brūyāt priyaṁ brūyāt na brūyāt satyam apriyam'  
Speak the truth, speak that which is sweet, don't speak the truth which is not 
sweet. 

Not that you can take liberty with the truth and massacre the whole field of 
behavior. Speak the simple, natural truth which is supporting life, which is 
nourishing life. Truth is always life-supporting if it is really truth, but it 
must come from a melted heart and not from a very unconcerned mind. No. 


 So the moment TM begins, [there is] culture of the heart and culture of the 
mind,."

 Hooking myself into the stars, the flow of the universe, was the only 
solution. It is like the stars up here - There are so many, that even the 
obvious constellations, are themselves floating on islands of star clusters. 
There is very little darkness of space, slim little veins of it, among the 
uncountable galaxies. Only by finding a way to immerse myself into that, the 
abundance of light, the irrational, yet perfect flow, of the universe, did any 
darkness in myself, and others, then become something understandable, 
tolerable, and often unnoticeable. Much easier to transform into light. 
 

 There is often talk about living beyond "the pairs of opposites", and living 
the flow of the universe seems to be the key - neither plus one, or minus one, 
it is zero. As George so famously said on Seinfeld, "Its a show about 
nothing...". So, it life is indeed a show about nothing, then everything, at 
any time is possible - any depth and any range, without any constraint. (once 
this is lived) Everything then manifests, however big or small. Thoughts, 
outside the realm of opposition gain incredible power - be careful what you 
wish for, because I have found that the closer I become a perfect servant to 
the universe, the payback is always incomprehensible, in its love, knowledge, 
generosity, and pure peace.

that all is balanced with the universe -- for every True Believing Nablus in 
the world, there is probably someone like this waiting to write a tell-all book 
about the person they believe in.  :-)

 

 Actually, for every true believer there are a hundred non believers who prefer 
to live their lives believing that owning a car, a yearly vacation in Mexico 
and pizza on Friday nights is as good as it gets. At least those who stumble 
their way around looking for something beyond strip malls and owning the latest 
iPhone deserve a little credit, as far as I'm concerned.

More ammo for MJ.

The old fraudster and vedic charlatan doesn't believe in 
Darwin's biological evolution.  How so, could he be 
enlightened?

And the bald fraudster has no qualms about refusing to pay 
even his own lawyers. I bet he paid his vedic chattels 
starvation wages, combined with false promises. He gives 
them fancy titles and robes, but keeps all the money and 
authority for himself.

By the way, he laundered money for decades. I wonder how 
much ill gotten wealth he sneaked into india?

Shocking was Maharishi telling Jerry Jarvis (then head of the US TM movement)

them. Jerry paid them anyway, which I have been told is one of the primary
