Re: [FairfieldLife] Re: The Call to Spiritual Order,Rally Now to Meditation!
FW: e-mail response, Try to meditate in groups with a grateful heart. Remember all that TM has given you- is giving you, the countless blessings, and return your gratitude to the source. Gratitude and praise open a channel for support of nature to come to you. Listen to and read what Maharishi said about the Maharishi Effect. A full commitment by individuals who gather in groups is all that it takes. Future generations will be so grateful when they learn about you--what you did for them, this world, the future. And that includes the sacrifices you made moving to Fairfield remaining true to your convictions and to the tradition from which the knowledge came. Jai Guru Dev, ---In FairfieldLife@yahoogroups.com,wrote : Quite a few of my friends meditate, and some are teachers, but most of us live far from Fairfield, IA. But we are scattered over a wide area so group gatherings of meditators tends to take place only during quarterly celebrations or occasional group meditations. Attempting to get enlightened is not a military campaign against the outer world, it is a campaign against our inner inadequacies. The outer world takes care of itself, as it says in Tao Te Ching: "So the wise adhere to action through non-action, And communicate the teaching without words." Extolling meditators to perform under command, as if they were a seal on the commercial stage balancing a ball on its nose, negates the spontaneity of effortless flow. Those who live in movement facilities live under this constriction, but those who do not often have lives far removed from life in the movement, we meditate when and where we can when we so desire. If the desire to meditate is genuine, it comes naturally, effortlessly and time will be made as allowed by the greater expanse of the world under the Laws of Nature. Spiritual movements ebb and flow, they begin, evolve, and dissipate. None of them eventually stay true to their original purpose which is simply for the human mind to wake up to its actual nature as experience opposed to its intellectual musings which flow as constricted rivers of thought.

We could have used you up here towards better results. People evidently are way too complacent around this, if they understand the consequence of meditating at all.

[FairfieldLife] Re: Support of Nature
An advanced aspect of Transcendental Meditation, it trains the individual to think and act from the level of Transcendental Consciousness, greatly enhancing the coordination between mind and body, and spontaneously developing the ability to enliven Natural Law to support the fulfillment of one's desires in all areas of life.' ---In FairfieldLife@yahoogroups.com,wrote : This proly deserves its own 'SoN' subject-thread heading here.. "Support of nature", this is not an unknown phenomena with spiritual practice. This feature, of a support of large nature gets reported in practicing spiritual traditions. Brahmananda Saraswati in the middle of the last century in his discoursing cited this feature from spiritual practice. The great sage of the 20th and beginning of the 21st Century, Maharishi Mahesh Yogi, brought this aspect up also in his teachings about spirituality. This is written about throughout the Bible and other scripture as a fruit. It is simply inaccurate wrong to suppose that all TM-’ers do not know about this feature of grace that comes in spiritual practice. More recently there was a dissertation published on this phenomena which was an empirical study of people’s experience here with support of Nature. While it can generally be appreciated that some may not relate to it in their own experience but it would be unfair to deny what quite evidently is a fruit of spiritual practice in the experience of others. -JaiGuruYou ---In FairfieldLife@yahoogroups.com, wrote : This does not mean that Trump will get the "Support of All the Laws of Nature" just because Clinton lost. Or that because there was some effort to do program that was the reason Trump won. It is basically that ad for margarine — "It's not nice to fool with Mother Nature." Nature does its thing. We can go along with it, or suffer mentally if we disagree with it.

Underlying the TM organization's idea of group program is this will influence the way the election would go according to the Laws of Nature. But in the minds of meditation practitioners there is another level of expectation, that Nature will be in agreement with how you think the election will turn out. All the people I knew thought it would come out differently than it did, but Nature seems to have a different plan. Now these same people want to continue to try to influence the outcome — reversing it somehow — using the same method that produced the undesired result and possibly additional methods to still the cognitive dissonance that has been the result. This is not a definition of rationality. Now that there is this outcome, how will Nature proceed, and how does a meditator come into alignment with Nature when they in activity and think something is amiss? It seems pretty clear that we do not yet know how this situation is going to unfold in detail. Remember the words "take it as it comes"? It does not mean manipulation or interference. This leads me to suspect that meditators do not understand the meaning of living in accord with all the Laws of Nature. If you are living in accord with all the Laws of Nature, it would not matter how the election came out, you would be settled in bliss consciousness if Clinton or Trump had won and then go on from there, one moment at a time, without being upset.

Re: [FairfieldLife] Re: The Call to Spiritual Order,Rally Now to Meditation!
Quite a few of my friends meditate, and some are teachers, but most of us live far from Fairfield, IA. But we are scattered over a wide area so group gatherings of meditators tends to take place only during quarterly celebrations or occasional group meditations. Attempting to get enlightened is not a military campaign against the outer world, it is a campaign against our inner inadequacies. The outer world takes care of itself, as it says in Tao Te Ching: "So the wise adhere to action through non-action,And communicate the teaching without words." Extolling meditators to perform under command, as if they were a seal on the commercial stage balancing a ball on its nose, negates the spontaneity of effortless flow. Those who live in movement facilities live under this constriction, but those who do not often have lives far removed from life in the movement, we meditate when and where we can when we so desire. If the desire to meditate is genuine, it comes naturally, effortlessly and time will be made as allowed by the greater expanse of the world under the Laws of Nature. Spiritual movements ebb and flow, they begin, evolve, and dissipate. None of them eventually stay true to their original purpose which is simply for the human mind to wake up to its actual nature as experience opposed to its intellectual musings which flow as constricted rivers of thought.

Petroleum-rich Qatar is spearheading projects to tackle the problems facing desert communities worldwide; from energy to fresh water and food production. But does their expensive, high-tech solution make sense? "Qatar in many ways is ground zero for a lot of the challenges we're going to see in the century ahead", argues US ex-pat Jonathan Smith, from the Qatar National Food Program. Soaring temperatures, swelling populations and minimal rainfall plague the otherwise booming nation. Now its leaders are pushing ambitious experiments like the Sahara Forest Project, transforming seawater and sunlight into fresh water, vegetables, electricity, biofuel and animal feed.

Some of what we can see in these lists is a natural aging-out of the Post-War Cohort, of the people who were early with Maharishi in the very early SRM movement, the Walter Koch and Charlie Lutes generation of TM. Now what we are seeing in TM is an accelerating rate of attrition to aging-out of the Boomer I and Boomer II’s. Interestingly, the cusp time period where the Boomers I and Boomers II met was the time frame where TM took off in popular (college undergrad, grad student, professor-age) culture for a time. A lot of the TM movement intake happened in those years 1968-76, over the cusp of the Boomers I and II. You can see this particular cusp in the age span of meditators in the Dome or at campus meetings of the TM community now. The WWII generation is pretty much gone from the ranks of TM now. The Post-War Cohort are pretty gone or geriatric now and the Boomers I are increasingly shuffling or gone on. Boomers II are increasingly ‘in diminish’. Time is short regardless.

[FairfieldLife] Support of Nature
This proly deserves its own 'SoN' subject-thread here.. "Support of nature", this is not an unknown phenomena with spiritual practice. This feature, of a support of large nature gets reported in practicing spiritual traditions. Brahmananda Saraswati in the middle of the last century in his discoursing cited this feature from spiritual practice. The great sage of the 20th and beginning of the 21st Century, Maharishi Mahesh Yogi, brought this aspect up also in his teachings about spirituality. This is written about throughout the Bible and other scripture as a fruit. It is simply inaccurate wrong to suppose that all TM-’ers do not know about this feature of grace that comes in spiritual practice. More recently there was a dissertation published on this phenomena which was an empirical study of people’s experience here with support of Nature. While it can generally be appreciated that some may not relate to it in their own experience but it would be unfair to deny what quite evidently is a fruit of spiritual practice in the experience of others. -JaiGuruYou ---In FairfieldLife@yahoogroups.com,wrote : This does not mean that Trump will get the "Support of All the Laws of Nature" just because Clinton lost.

We can go along with it, or suffer mentally if we disagree with it.

Underlying the TM organization's idea of group program is this will influence the way the election would go according to the Laws of Nature. But in the minds of meditation practitioners there is another level of expectation, that Nature will be in agreement with how you think the election will turn out. All the people I knew thought it would come out differently than it did, but Nature seems to have a different plan. Now these same people want to continue to try to influence the outcome — reversing it somehow — using the same method that produced the undesired result and possibly additional methods to still the cognitive dissonance that has been the result. This is not a definition of rationality. Now that there is this outcome, how will Nature proceed, and how does a meditator come into alignment with Nature when they in activity and think something is amiss? It seems pretty clear that we do not yet know how this situation is going to unfold in detail. Remember the words "take it as it comes"? It does not mean manipulation or interference. This leads me to suspect that meditators do not understand the meaning of living in accord with all the Laws of Nature. If you are living in accord with all the Laws of Nature, it would not matter how the election came out, you would be settled in bliss consciousness if Clinton or Trump had won and then go on from there, one moment at a time, without being upset.
