you have your own sect of one because calling someone tru-believer is nothing 
but an adhominem attack

 srijau responding,  you are the ad hominen attacker lying when someone says 
what you don't want to hear.

 repeatedly attacking people that did amazing great things in Fairfield and for 
the world, people who acted with great devotion to Maharishi and their fellow 
man and did great and beautiful and amazing things and you ad hominem them over 
and over when it serves no purpose at all anymore

 A fair way to this is to satisfy truth using the standards in the algorithms 
of these charity rating services and the way they look at governance. It is not 
enough for our party apparatchiks to respond pleading some excuse that we don’t

http://www.sonima.com/meditation/top-cities-for-meditation/
 There is a larger community in spiritually activated peoples out in Fairfield, 
Iowa also that is unseen under this seemingly bigger BATGAP Fairfield, Iowa 
exposure. Everyday Fairfield hosts a lot of deeper spiritual life and practice 
ongoing. 

 In Conversation.. 

“A cohesion in the community in meditating Fairfield, Iowa is that people 
understand the essential premise of “the second element” in this, that the 
Transcendent is the real deal. They get it. We were taught well. This actually 
is a really great sign of health in the community,  Because if we were all kept 
trotting along behind the TM banner the way that it was taught then that would 
be the cult.”   - ..from the spiritual Fairfield satsang.
 

 
 There is a place of need in the Fairfield story for some of us to speak to our 
group’s larger spirituality as a unique cohesion in the universality of deeper 
transcendentalism that is cross-cultural. That we do have here a 45 year built 
up spiritual experience that speaks more purely not as just some god-religion 
but as we are as a bunch of transcendentalists better known collectively as the 
Fairfield meditating community. This is rooted differently than just creed as 
belief.  


 This from the Wikipedia page on New Thought:

 “..another is Emersonianism or New England transcendentalism 
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Transcendentalism; another is Berkeleyan idealism 
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Subjective_idealism; another is spiritism 
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Spiritism, with its messages of "law" and 
"progress" and "development"; another the optimistic popular science 
evolutionism https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Evolutionism of which I have 
recently spoken; and, finally, Hinduism https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hinduism 
has contributed a strain. But the most characteristic feature of the mind-cure 
movement is an inspiration much more direct. The leaders in this faith have had 
an intuitive belief in the all-saving power of healthy-minded attitudes as 
such, in the conquering efficacy of courage, hope, and trust, and a correlative 
contempt for doubt, fear, worry, and all nervously precautionary states of 
mind. Their belief has in a general way been corroborated by the practical 
experience of their disciples; and this experience forms to-day a mass imposing 
in amount.[7] https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/New_Thought#cite_note-7

 I like that, “a mass imposing in amount”. 
 Likewise, this was on the Zen Calendar this month,

 When Abba Pambo was asked to say a few words to the very important Bishop of 
Alexandria, who was visiting some of the Desert Fathers, the elder replied: “If 
he is not edified by my silence, there is no hope that he will be edified by my 
words.” -Zen of the Desert Fathers
 


 “.. where two or more are ‘gathered’ in the transcendence of the Unified 
Field, there is superradiance.”

 ..superradiance,   
 superradiance as quantum entanglement. Communication at a distance, 'a mass 
imposing in amount'.
