Sorry Judy, when you justified the politics of it, you defended it. Doesn't 
matter what else you say about it.Saying it was disgraceful is like putting 
lipstick on a pig and refusing to call it a pig.

FW: Dear Revered Friend of Maharishi University of Management:
 I am going to retire as President of Maharishi University of Management on 
Founder's Day, September 12th, after 36 years as President.
 I will be devoting my time to my duties as Prime Minister of the Global 
Country of World Peace, and as International President of Maharishi 
Universities of Management.
 I am proposing to the Board of Trustees that Raja John Hagelin be appointed as 
President of the University. He is tops in knowledge, both in science and 
Maharishi Vedic Science, a charismatic and inspiring figure, and has proven his 
administrative and marketing skills by increasing the number of people in the 
US learning Transcendental Meditation tenfold in just a few years.
 He has agreed that he is willing to do this, and I feel sure that the Board 
will support him in this role (he is already Honorary Chairman of the Board of 
Trustees, and the University's most senior faculty member, researcher, and 
public speaker). He has expressed his admiration for the existing faculty and 
administrative teams at the University who have vast experience, and feels with 
their help he will be able to manage everything well.
 He also says he already has ideas how to promote the University more, and 
attract more students, including building a closer relationship between 
Maharishi Foundation and Maharishi University of Management, and calling upon 
the skills and contacts of Dr. Bob Roth to raise the University's profile. This 
will also include greater promotion of the unique knowledge offered by the 
faculty of the University at special conferences Raja Hagelin will organize.
 He has also mentioned his desire to be able to consult with me on any issues 
that may come up, and I of course am very happy to do that.
 We will also bring out this change in the leadership during the Commencement 
ceremony on June 18th, without taking too much time.
 I do feel strongly that this is a great step of progress for Maharishi 
University of Management, and will lead to the faster expansion we all desire.
 Raja John Hagelin and I have had a chance to discuss this with Maharaja 
Adhiraj Rajaraam to gain his perspective, and he feels this is a very good move.
 Thank you all for your kindness and loving support through all the years! You 
have done and are doing so much for Maharishi University of Management and the 
whole world!!! Please continue your support and expand it if you can!
 With Best Wishes,
 Jai Guru Dev

No Judy, my reading comprehension is just fine and you continue to defend the 
cartoon by justifying it.

cartoon, I said I understood why some might do so: because the *political* 
point was valid. The political point had nothing to do with race. If Prissy in 
GWTW and/or Condi had been white, the exact same point would have been made 
with the same cartoon without the racial aspect.

exactly what the sentiment of that cartoon was meant to convey. A black woman 
sitting in a rocking chair, rocking an aluminum tube as if it were a baby with 
a play on words from a famous movie. The line, "I don't know nothing 'bout 
birthing babies", mocking a simpleton, an uneducated lazy slave, one who does 
what the massa tells her to do. 
The very fact that you can defend it, while claiming you're not, is ten times 
lower than my not knowing that neither the Times nor the Post actually 
published it even though it was one of their syndicated  cartoonists.It was all 
about hypocrisy Judy..

I don't know what "sentiment" the cartoon was intended to evoke, and neither do 
you. The political point, though, was valid, and I would guess that's why some 
defended it.

 Dear Members of the Faculty:

I am going to retire as President of Maharishi University of Management on 
Founder’s Day, September 12th, after 36 years as President.

I will be devoting my time to my duties as Prime Minister of the Global Country 
of World Peace, and as International President of Maharishi Universities of 
Management.

I am proposing to the Board of Trustees that Raja John Hagelin be appointed as 
President of the University. He is tops in knowledge, both in science and 
Maharishi Vedic Science, a charismatic and inspiring figure, and has proven his 
administrative and marketing skills by increasing the number of people in the 
US learning Transcendental Meditation tenfold in just a few years… not to 
mention his leadership of the Dr. David Lynch Foundation!

He has agreed that he is willing to do this, and I feel sure that the Board 
will support him in this role (he is already Honorary Chairman of the Board of 
Trustees, and the University’s most senior faculty member, researcher, and 
public speaker). He has expressed his admiration for the existing faculty and 
administrative teams at the University who have vast experience, and feels with 
their help he will be able to manage everything well.

He also says he already has ideas how to promote the University more, and 
attract more students, including building a closer relationship between 
Maharishi Foundation and Maharishi University of Management, and calling upon 
the skills and contacts of Dr. Bob Roth to raise the University’s profile. This 
will also include greater promotion of the unique knowledge offered by the 
faculty of the University at special conferences Raja Hagelin will organize.

He has also mentioned his desire to be able to consult with me on any issues 
that may come up, and I of course am very happy to do that.

We will also bring out this change in the leadership during the Commencement 
ceremony on June 18th, without taking too much time.

I do feel strongly that this is a great step of progress for Maharishi 
University of Management, and will lead to the faster expansion we all desire.

Raja John Hagelin and I have had a chance to discuss this with Maharaja Adhiraj 
Rajaraam to gain his perspective, and he feels this is a very good move.

Thank you all for your kindness and loving support through all the years! You 
are the greatest intellectuals of this age,, and the gifts you give to the 
future leaders of the world and to the world as a whole are beyond measure. I 
appreciate you so much.

[FairfieldLife] Trump, Hillary or Sanders: Seven reasons why our next president should meditate

2016-05-18 Thread email4you mikemail4...@yahoo.com [FairfieldLife]

1. Slow down the mind. Hillary Clinton is on record saying she meditates to 
slow things down and cool the mind.  A recent survey that my colleagues and I 
conducted on over 600 Transcendental Meditation (TM) practitioners supports 
this benefit.  Most respondents (92%) said that, since starting to meditate, 
they felt a sense of stillness in the presence of activity.  Here’s how storied 
hedge fund owner Ray Dalio, a decades-long TM practitioner, describes how this 
benefits his negotiations:
