Interesting, but I also found it interesting that she didn't offer much justification for *why* she's saying what she's saying about becoming comfortable with contradiction. She did mention the mental body vs. the heart, but to me that's NewAgeSpeak. yes, I've notice that term, but I'm not sure that she is speaking as a NewAge guy, but maybe some of her audiance are such. most of her other talks are coming from the advaita teachings, my interpratation was that she was pointing to listen with your intuition, aka heart while leaving the contradiction on the leanear level as is, that way one can transcend the paradox or conflict and find his own truth. One additional point of information that can actually give some justification for her stance is in MMY's olde saying, Knowledge is different in different states of consciousness. Even *within* his system there are paradoxes, depending upon which state of consciousness he is speaking about, or from. The description of reality is different from the POV of waking state, or CC, or GC, or UC. Total contra- dictions. But very possibly all true. It seems to me that the attempt to claim that some- thing is true, and to actively get someone else to buy into that truth, is an attempt to get them to *share your state of consciousness*. yes, I was thinking exactly that verse when i heard her talk. Any appeal to others to believe something that is true only from the unenlightened waking state is, almost by definition, an appeal to these others to look at the situation *from* the POV of unenlight- ened waking state. If these others are looking at the situation from another state of consciousness, from the POV of, say, UC, then the situation as described by someone in the state of ignorance is *not* true, for them. But the folks who feel the need to *convince* these others that they know the truth often keep ham- mering away at the UC POV, telling it that it's wrong, and that they should look at things from the right POV. Which in this case, of course, is ignorance. yes it is applicable to different levels of consciousness, yet it can also be expanded to the different spiritual systems, meaning the different spiritul teachings that one finds them to contradict each other. If you need an example of this, look at Rory's recent post #140834. I thought that was a marvelous example of stepping back and expressing the same situation from a completely different POV and SOC, from which it looks entirely different. What *seems* true when looking at the situation from one POV is no longer true when looking at the same situation from another POV. Something to bear in mind when trying to claim that your POV is true. When you make that claim, aren't you *really* saying, *Mine* is the POV or SOC from which 'truth' is determined?

Which in this case, of course, is ignorance. Actually, I don't recall having seen many, if any, disputes of this nature here. I agree. I can't recall many if any, Turq, can you cite 3-4 of these discussion, My mind draws a blank. I think the assertion above is being used to lump all disputes about what is true and what isn't into this category and thereby stigmatize anybody who takes a stand on anything as being in ignorance, as well as to excuse those who contradict themselves or get their facts wrong or express an opinion that is not well founded. Some true contradictions are inevitable -- and useful -- if used well. That is far from validly concluding or infering that ALL contradicions are good. If someone says the cat is black, when its white, thats a contradiction. One of mistaken perception. Its not profound. Something to bear in mind when trying to claim that your POV is true. When you make that claim, aren't you *really* saying, *Mine* is the POV or SOC from which 'truth' is determined? Since few discussions are really debating such, your point is not relevant to 99%+ of all dsscussions here that focus on the every day material world. If in that context if you know, its a contradiction is used as a trump card -- to justify poor logic, cognitive difficulties or incorrect facts, then its a cop-out. Nope. Depends entirely on the claim and the nature of the POV. Charles Manson is reported to have said, If all is One, nothing can be wrong. That's true, but it's irrelevant, even if we accept for the sake of argument that Manson was in UC. To claim that it makes a difference on the level of human interaction is just sophistry. Yes.

[FairfieldLife] Moroccan YouTube ban elicits negative reaction from citizens
Rabat (Morocco) - Moroccon Internet users have been banned from accessing YouTube for over a week, and now some are beginning to doubt the government's response that the problem is due to a technical glitch. The video sharing site has been blocked from subscribers of Morocco's Maroc Telecom, a state-run company that provides the majority of Internet access, since last Friday. A government spokesperson told the Associated Press it was unable to comment, and Maroc Telecom would not go further than to say it was a glitch. However, skeptics are wondering how a glitch would prevent access to only one site, and why it hasn't been fixed in four days. They've clearly blocked YouTube, said local student Abdelhakin Albarkani. It allowed us to see things the state newspapers and television won't show. Videos criticizing the country's treatment of Western Sahara, a Moroccon-owned territory, went up on the site shortly before it became unavailable to Maroc Telecom subscribers. Morocco is in the same category as Thailand, with strict laws that prohibit overt criticism about the government and its ruler. Thailand received international attention when it banned YouTube because of a video that insulted the country's king. http://www.tgdaily.com/content/view/32236/118/ - common Moroccan Govt, live a little. lol

FW Excerpts from Maharishi's talk of 17 May 2007: We cannot describe what is indescribable -- and what is indescribable is the benefit of Vastu structured buildings -- Sthapatya Veda buildings. I am living in the Sthapatya Veda building, and what I feel is, that the walls of the house -- they don't produce a cage for me. I don't feel that I am living inside the walls. The walls are as transparent, as is the meaning of cosmic living -- cosmic living -- you don't feel that you are cramped by the walls. I have been, all my life -- fifty, forty years living wherever I went, living with whomsoever kept me as his guest and all...and always I was feeling, I am caged within these walls. And ever since they gave me this house to live in, I'm not feeling restricted. This is cosmic living. I am living within the walls, but the walls are transparent for me. That is the experience. I am very afraid to go to any other house. I never feel to go, because I will be caged in. Such freedom, such abundance, such enormous mastery over space and time is the reality of living in cosmic magnitude. This is living in Vastu building. So, builders of the world, listen to the talk that Dr Hagelin has just spoken for you. And build Fortune-Creating Homes in the world till the world is structured in terms of heaven. The Devatas living in heaven -- the administrators of the universe live in heaven. And, living in heaven, they are able to administer the universe without restriction, because they are living in Sthapatya Veda. They are ordained to live in the Sthapatya Veda. Sthapatya Veda is that section of the Constitution of the Universe -- Veda is the Constitution of the Universe, and Sthapatya Veda is the law of stabilizing, the law that stabilizes individuality in terms of his cosmic status. It is such a thing, it's beyond speech. Therefore, a new world will be lived in by the same people, and what they will be? They will never be sick, they will never be shrouded with small things, there will be peace unbounded, prosperity unlimited, coherence unimaginable. This is Vastu living. Living in Vastu -- it's a very great gift. A very great time. We call the builders of the world to rebuild, to reconstruct the world. World Movement has a program to reconstruct the world. We are inviting the builders of the world to build Heaven on Earth. It will be Heaven on Earth. I have the experience of all these eighty, ninety years of life, living in all these wrong places. But somehow through the grace of Guru Dev, I never jolted from my purpose of life. The purpose of life was to be fully enlightened. So, that was inside, that remains, that was very strong. And I was not living permanently one place -- one month here, one week here -- but ever since I came to this house, the house never left me. Because, it is the same thing, if one begins to live one's cosmic status, one cannot leave oneself, one cannot stoop down to individual status. So Vastu house is an aspect of the knowledge of Total Natural Law. It is promoted by the Constitution of the Universe. It is promoted by the Will of God, who is responsible for creation. Time of speaking is over. I would only say: 'The taste of pudding is in eating.' All lifelong I have the experience, those who heard and followed the words, they are better off today, and they will be better off the whole of their life.

[FairfieldLife] Turning off gene makes mice smarter
May 27, 2007 10:04:39 AM PST Turning off a gene that has been associated with Alzheimer's disease made mice smarter in the lab, researchers said on Sunday in a finding that lends new insight on learning and may lead to new drugs for memory problems. They said these mice were far more adept at sensing changes in their environment than their mouse brethren. quot;It's pretty rare when you can make an animal smarter,quot; said Dr. James Bibb, assistant professor of psychiatry at the University of Texas Southwestern Medical Center, who led the study published in the journal Nature Neuroscience. Bibb and colleagues used genetic engineering techniques to breed mice that could be manipulated to switch off Cdk5, a gene that controls production of a brain enzyme linked to diseases marked by the death of neurons in the brain, such as Alzheimer's. quot;Any time we're losing neurons, Cdk5 may be contributing to that process. That has made it an area of great interest,quot; Bibb said in a telephone interview. quot;We have shown that we can turn off a gene in an adult animal. That has never been done before,quot; he added. When they had tried to breed mice that completely lacked the gene, the pups died at birth. Bibb said they put the mice though a series of tests and found the altered mice did better than normal mice. quot;Everything is more meaningful to these mice,quot; he said. quot;The increase in sensitivity to their surroundings seems to have made them smarter.quot; Bibb said the mice were better at tasks based on associated learning, Bibb said. quot;It's the most important kind of learning in the animal kingdom. It's how we know where our car is and that is our wife or our husband and that's our kids. It's how we connect things,quot; he added. The smart mice were better at learning to navigate a water maze and remembering that they got a shock when they were in a certain cage. quot;It was very clear right off the bat that the loss of Cdk5 made them have a much stronger associative memory,quot; Bibb said. quot;What was really interesting is they not only remembered better, but the next day, if you put them back in those same circumstances, they noticed they were not getting shocked.quot; Bibb said his work was inspired by the 1999 discovery of quot;Doogiequot; mice, a smarter breed of mice developed at Princeton University that were named after the TV program quot;Doogie Houser,quot; a show that featured a child prodigy. Those mice were bred by manipulating NR2B, a gene that also plays a role in associative memory. quot;It turns out Cdk5 was controlling the regulation of NR2B,quot; Bibb said. quot;Maybe by finding these new mechanisms we can find new drugs that improve the cognitive performance of people who have deficits.quot; He and colleagues are working on developing drugs that could create the same effect without the need for genetic alteration. quot;There are other cases -- in post-traumatic stress disorder, addiction and depression -- where we may want to modulate memory not so much to improve it, but to selectively modify it to remove the negative memories that are causing the problems. I think that has a lot of potential,quot; Bibb said. However, he said the long-term effects are not yet clear. quot;If all of your (brain) synapses were magically strengthened all the time, that might be good for the short term, but I'm not sure if it would be good all the time,quot; he said. http://health.yahoo.com/news/175614

Absolutely, though I think more approriate would be to say that the Israeli defense kicked into action AFTER Iran via Hezbollah - with the government and people of Lebanon as hostages - embarked on indiscriminate killing by shooting rockets into Israel. I draw my conclusions partly from the numbers of dead. Israel though they have a much better PR engine kills ten to one hundred times more enemies than their enemies do of them, yet they always position themselves as the victims. Israel PR sux, it's also a matter of size, Israel can't compete with all the many hatrade contries PR machines. You tend to ignore pure FACTS and you using funny logic is not helping, meaning, just becuase Israel happened to have less dead count in this war does not mean that they are responsible for Hezbollah attack on them.

The Declaration of the Establishment of the State of Israel , was the official announcement that a new Jewish state, named the State of Israel , had been formally established in the British Mandate of Palestine, the land where the Kingdom of Israel and the Kingdom of Judah once have been. It has been called the start of the Third Jewish Commonwealth by some observers. The First Jewish Commonwealth ended with the destruction of Solomon's Temple, and the second with the destruction of the Second Temple in Jerusalem two thousand years ago. wikipedia.org

a nice quote that describes the sanyama and P' Sutra process: The parallel between the quantum field theory of effortless creation and Maharishi's theory of sanyama continues in that both involve spontaneous symmetry breaking. The creation of a Goldstone boson takes place in a quantum field whenever the influences are such as to produce a spontaneous change from a more homogeneous to a less homogeneous state. In the regime of consciousness the influence of the Patanjali sutra on the wholeness of pure consciousness is such as to cause a spontaneous localization of the pure consciousness in the direction of a particular result specified by Patanjali, that is a symmetry breaking of the consciousness takes place whereby the wholeness of consciousness flows into a particular location. http://www.csun.edu/edpsy/Gowan/page38z.html

During the 1970's, the American Dennis Hope registered the moon and all the planets in the solar system except for the planet earth under his name. According to the land registry's laws, any citizen is allowed register any property under their name, as long as it is not registered under anyone else's name already, and no one objects to the registration. Hope took advantage of this loophole and registered the moon under his name. Daniel Yaron, CEO of Crazyshop, the company which markets moon property in Israel, explained to Ynet why Israelis are interested in purchasing land on the moon: People decide to buy land on the moon for two reasons: One is the gimmick of giving a gift a piece of land on the moon. The other reason, he continued, is that now, we see that this is becoming more realistic after NASA's decision to construct a manned base on the moon by the year 2020. Some people think that in a few years from now this property may be more valuable. Yaron agrees that at the moment there is nothing to be done with the plot, but said that in the future it may be possible to do something with it, to realize the purchase one way or another. After all, it is a matter of foresight, 70 years ago if someone had said 'buy land in Israel' people would have asked why should we? Upon purchase, the buyer gets an ownership certificate and a photographed map of the purchased area. So far some 55.5 million acres of land on the moon have been sold to people all over the world.

on a different note: New Evidence of Liquid Methane on Saturn's Moon By JOHN NOBLE WILFORD Published: January 3, 2007 As scientists predicted but have had a hard time proving, the surface of Titan, Saturn's largest moon, appears to be dotted with an abundance of lakes of liquid methane. The lakes are more intriguing evidence of the active phenomena at play on the only moon in the solar system that has a dense atmosphere. The Lakes of Titan (Nature) The discovery, reported today by an international team of researchers, was made by a radar survey of Titan's high northern latitudes by the Cassini spacecraft, which has been orbiting Saturn and its retinue of satellites since July 2004. One of the mission's major objectives is the investigation of Titan's environment, thought to be similar to conditions on the primordial Earth. In a detailed description of the find scheduled for publication Thursday in the journal Nature, the scientists said the radar imaging system detected more than 75 dark patches in the landscape toward Titan's northern polar region. The patches, they said, indicated smooth surfaces in an otherwise rugged topography, suggesting lake beds either partly dry or filled with liquid. These smooth surfaces, more or less circular and ranging in diameter from 2 to 40 miles, are associated with channels that appear to have been formed by flowing liquids, presumably tributaries to the lakes. Methane exists in Titan's atmosphere and, in the extreme cold of high latitudes, is expected to rain on the surface and be present as liquids in subsurface reservoirs. The discovery team concluded that the radar images, made on a close pass of the moon in July, provide definitive evidence for the presence of lakes on the surface of Titan. When the spacecraft conducted its first radar search above 70 degrees north latitude, Ellen R. Stofan, leader of the team, said in an interview, We saw a huge swath of the surface just covered with lakes, like Minnesota. Dr. Stofan is a planetary scientist at Proxemy Research, a contractor in Virginia to the National Aeronautics and Space Administration, and at University College London. Other team members include researchers at the Jet Propulsion Laboratory in Pasadena, Calif., which directs the Cassini mission; the University of Arizona, and several European institutions. In an accompanying article in the journal, Christophe Sotin, a planetary scientist at the University of Nantes in France who was not involved in the research, wrote that the lakes and other mission findings were strong evidence that methane on Titan plays the role of water on Earth. It is the second most abundant component of Titan's atmosphere, after nitrogen. The discovery, Dr. Sotin concluded, adds to the weight of evidence that processes on and beneath Titan's surface must be similar to those dominating the early evolution of any Earth-like planet. As far as we know, there is only one planetary body that displays more dynamism than Titan, he wrote. Its name is Earth. Finding large bodies of liquid methane and probably ethane on Titan, in lakes or perhaps vast seas, had long been hypothesized, based on telescope observations of the moon's smoggy methane-rich atmosphere and by the two Voyager spacecraft that passed close some 30 years ago. But the Cassini remote-sensing instruments had failed to detect an ocean, though they and the European Space Agency's Huygens lander did pick up traces of the channels where liquids had apparently flowed across the surface. On Cassini's previous encounters with Titan, the smog-penetrating radar found no smaller liquid bodies, until it observed the northern latitudes from 70 to 83 degrees. At present, it is winter in Titan's north. Methane is one of the few molecules to exist as a liquid in such cold conditions, scientists said, and is the most plausible explanation for the smooth, dark surfaces in the radar images. Dr. Stofan said that the lake depressions could be volcanic craters or sinkholes; very few craters gouged out by meteorite impacts have been detected on Titan. Their roughly circular shapes and steep- sided rims are typical of volcanic depressions. Surface collapses, as in sinkholes, could fill the lakes with liquids from interior chambers, like aquifers on Earth. In both cases, scientists said, methane vapor condensing and precipitating out of the cold Titan sky was probably a significant source of the liquid in the lakes. Jonathan I. Lunine of the University of Arizona, another member of the discovery team, described in an interview what the lakes probably look like. The methane liquid would be transparent, enough to see the dark hydrocarbon sediments on the floor of shallow lakes. The liquid would be less viscous than water, perhaps like gasoline. Overhead, aerosols in the upper atmosphere presumably cast a dim orange light on the lake. In the dark of winter, one would need a

Rather, Israel was attacked by six Arab countries at once. She defended herself, defeated her attackers, and won the so-called territories, not from the Palestinians, but from Jordan and Egypt. 3) Jerusalem was never the capital of any state but Israel. It was certainly never the capital of a country that never existed. Why should the Palestinians get any part of it? Because they want it? Because they have terrorists? 4) Jerusalem, under the current Israeli control, is a free and open city. Israel, as a democracy, guarantees freedom of religion within its borders. Contrast this fact with areas that have come under Palestinian occupation. What percentage of Christians have left in recent years because they cannot stand the harassment and persecution? 5) Most Arabs living in Palestine today are not indigenous to the region. It was not until after the Jews had changed deserts and swamps into a productive and thriving land that the Arabs started migrating there. Arafat himself was born and raised in Cairo, Egypt. Did you know that? The belief that giving the Palestinians a state will bring peace is a delusion. Unless the Arabs recognize and accept these truths, even if they are given a state of their own, and no matter how many agreements and treaties they sign, they will always feel wronged, cheated, and forced into giving up what they now claim is theirs. They will continue to plot and look for an opportunity to destroy Israel in order to take back what they claim is theirs, especially the younger generation that has been brainwashed to hate the occupying enemy. Whether there is a Palestinian state or not, there will be no peace. Only a massive and ongoing re-education of the Arab people to these truths will enable meaningful negotiations to begin, followed by a lasting peace between Arabs and Jews. It is therefore critical that everyone who has an audience, whether in print or other media, use the forum they have available to repeat these truths again and again until they reach the consciousness of those waging war in the Middle East

Don't be attached to the non-attachment! :-) Seriously, don't confuse the inner state with the outer responsibilities. Today I woke up at 5:30, meditated, and then began reinstalling my sink disposal, which has developed a leak due to the plumbing connecting the disposal to the drainage pipes being cut slightly too short by the original installer, causing the disposal to cant about 5-7 degrees off level, causing greater stress on the plumber's putty seal on the sink drain, eventually leading to a leak- - which I have now repaired by essentially taking everything apart and putting it back together again- three hours. Also spoke with someone at length about a possible learning program redesign contract for a computer networks audience, which is what I do when not repairing the plumbing. I use the above as an example of how grounded and normal anyone can be while still experiencing free-fall forever during daily life. By progressively culturing both states of awareness, inner and outer, over time they exist simul;taneously, clearly, without conflict, and without any *impairment* (lol!) to our daily activity.

Tom answers Part 2; Who has said anything about those in free fall being unproductive? Your concept being laid on that which you can not understand. Being in free fall is absolutely delicious. Nothing to fear and no ability to hold or get stuck in fear. I find that I sometimes put in a 23 hour day and get right up and go for another 16 or 18 on 6 to 8 hours rest. I am 65 and have never felt better or had more energy in my life. With no fear in my life I have no wasted energy in dealing with those feelings that fear used to bring up. AS Neal Donald Walsh put it so eloquently in Conversations with God. FEAR is an acronym for False Evidence that Appears Real. Fear is just another idea. Get with the flow and things are as they are, enjoyable. Enjoy Tom I see, thanks for the input. That being said it looks that when Suzanne was describing her fear it wasn't absolutely delicious as you described, possibly her fear was removed later on .

However, my own OPINION is that people can mistake pathological witnessing for CC and visa versa. How would you define pathological witnessing? I assume you mean the experience of derealization. The difference between the two is that in derealization there is a me that is experienced as disconnected and distant from experiencing: I seem to be a million miles away. But in CC there is no self or me that is localized to be either far away or close. How would you function if you cannot localize enough to deal with paying your bills or driving a car? You're confounding consciousness with mind. Two entirely different things in realization but not in waking state. The mind pays the bills and drives the car, not consciousness. The mind is a siddhi of consciousness. No you don't understand what I'm saying. Certainly the mind is contained in consciousness but what happens if the local tax collector calls you and says Peter, you own $5,000 in back taxes and have to pay up by the end of the month or we'll take your house. Do you remain meless or does the Peter and the tax bill suddenly become the center of focus? My bet it is the latter. :) i think in different ways you guys saying the same thing ...

[FairfieldLife] Re: 'The Fear of Enlightenment'
big snip. trying again, let see if it goes this time .. Walking home from that bus ride, she felt like a cloud of awareness following the body. The cloud was a witness located behind and to the left of the body and completely separate from body, mind and emotions. The witness was constant and so was FEAR, the fear of complete physical dissolution. The witnessing continued for several months, even during sleep, and Segal had to endure the fear and the accompanying stress, finding relief in long and frequent sleeps. .. I find SUZANNE's description to have contradictions, but maybe some sees it in a different light. If Suzanne got to such detached state of non-localize witnessing as she describes, how can she feel fear and terror at the same time? Fear is only a delusion of a localized consciousness , meaning, attachment to the boundaries while some of her description suggests pure witnessing state, non boundaries state. maybe she was just in a transition states and her description is a mere of what her mind was telling her what she is witnessing, I wouldn't take a face-value to her statements..

What I find most interesting about the Enron story is someone named John Chanos who is a Wall Street Trader who was one of the first to see that Enron was built on fantasy. He ended up making 10s of millions because he shorted Enron stock (and advised his clients to do the same) when it was at its peak. But Chanos did it the old-fashioned way: he actually studied Enron's financial statements. He saw anomalies and instead of like 99% of everyone else who was trading Enron stock and were euphoric and on the bandwagon about its success, he rolled up his sleeves and went into all the little details, found it to be a house of cards, and sold short. Which begs the question: if Chanos could see the truth, why couldn't the others? Were they too lazy? while they were making money they didn't care for the details, the truth just got in the way. (also many working guys don't know how to read these financial statements. Enron, as you know, was big corp and I'm sure it was not an easy task to figure out what's going on.)

[FairfieldLife] No Clash / Wafa
[ i respect Wafa and think she is the best thing that happen to Islam in the recent decade. She is a true free thinker. JMHO ] 2/21/2006 Clip No. 1050 Arab-American Psychiatrist Wafa Sultan: There is No Clash of Civilizations but a Clash between the Mentality of the Middle Ages and That of the 21st Century Following are excerpts from an interview with Arab-American psychiatrist Wafa Sultan. The interview was aired on Al-Jazeera TV on February 21, 2006 . Wafa Sultan: The clash we are witnessing around the world is not a clash of religions, or a clash of civilizations. It is a clash between two opposites, between two eras. It is a clash between a mentality that belongs to the Middle Ages and another mentality that belongs to the 21st century. It is a clash between civilization and backwardness, between the civilized and the primitive, between barbarity and rationality. It is a clash between freedom and oppression, between democracy and dictatorship. It is a clash between human rights, on the one hand, and the violation of these rights, on other hand. It is a clash between those who treat women like beasts, and those who treat them like human beings. What we see today is not a clash of civilizations. Civilizations do not clash, but compete. [...] Host: I understand from your words that what is happening today is a clash between the culture of the West, and the backwardness and ignorance of the Muslims? Wafa Sultan: Yes, that is what I mean. [...] Host: Who came up with the concept of a clash of civilizations? Was it not Samuel Huntington? It was not Bin Laden. I would like to discuss this issue, if you don't mind... Wafa Sultan: The Muslims are the ones who began using this expression. The Muslims are the ones who began the clash of civilizations. The Prophet of Islam said: I was ordered to fight the people until they believe in Allah and His Messenger. When the Muslims divided the people into Muslims and non-Muslims, and called to fight the others until they believe in what they themselves believe, they started this clash, and began this war. In order to stop this war, they must reexamine their Islamic books and curricula, which are full of calls for takfir and fighting the infidels. My colleague has said that he never offends other people's beliefs. What civilization on the face of this earth allows him to call other people by names that they did not choose for themselves? Once, he calls them Ahl Al-Dhimma, another time he calls them the People of the Book, and yet another time he compares them to apes and pigs, or he calls the Christians those who incur Allah's wrath. Who told you that they are People of the Book? They are not the People of the Book, they are people of many books. All the useful scientific books that you have today are theirs, the fruit of their free and creative thinking. What gives you the right to call them those who incur Allah's wrath, or those who have gone astray, and then come here and say that your religion commands you to refrain from offending the beliefs of others? I am not a Christian, a Muslim, or a Jew. I am a secular human being. I do not believe in the supernatural, but I respect others' right to believe in it. Dr. Ibrahim Al-Khouli: Are you a heretic? Wafa Sultan: You can say whatever you like. I am a secular human being who does not believe in the supernatural... Dr. Ibrahim Al-Khouli: If you are a heretic, there is no point in rebuking you, since you have blasphemed against Islam, the Prophet, and the Koran... Wafa Sultan: These are personal matters that do not concern you. [...] Wafa Sultan: Brother, you can believe in stones, as long as you don't throw them at me. You are free to worship whoever you want, but other people's beliefs are not your concern, whether they believe that the Messiah is God, son of Mary, or that Satan is God, son of Mary. Let people have their beliefs. [...] Wafa Sultan: The Jews have come from the tragedy (of the Holocaust), and forced the world to respect them, with their knowledge, not with their terror, with their work, not their crying and yelling. Humanity owes most of the discoveries and science of the 19th and 20th centuries to Jewish scientists. 15 million people, scattered throughout the world, united and won their rights through work and knowledge. We have not seen a single Jew blow himself up in a German restaurant. We have not seen a single Jew destroy a church. We have not seen a single Jew protest by killing people. The Muslims have turned three Buddha statues into rubble. We have not seen a single Buddhist burn down a Mosque, kill a Muslim, or burn down an embassy. Only the Muslims defend their beliefs by burning down churches, killing people, and destroying embassies. This path will not yield any results. The Muslims must ask themselves what they can do for humankind, before they demand that humankind respect them. -

He was speaking in an interview to Kuwaiti paper al-Anba. Asad's Iranian-backed war plan would serve the purpose of forcing the Americans to divide their military assets between a strike against Iran and the defense of their allies in the Persia Gulf, Israel and US forces in Iraq. Both are seriously looking at a Syrian attack on the Golan which would escalate into a full-blown Syrian-Israeli war and a second Hizballah assault from Lebanon. Asad's remark that during the Lebanon hostilities, he was under pressure from the Syrian population to go to war against Israel and liberate the Golan is the most direct threat of belligerency of all his four Golan statements in the last month. He is implying that he stood up to the pressure once but may not do so again. And for the benefit of the Americans, the Europeans, the Saudis and the Egyptians - all of whom are pretty fed up with him Asad is posing as the picture of self-restraint; anyone else in his place, he implies, would have taken advantage of the Lebanon war and made a grab for the Golan. Therefore, he is saying, he deserves to be treated with the respect due to a strategic asset by Western and moderate Arab powers instead of being targeted for an ouster. The Syrian ruler would not threaten war without guarantees from Iran. According to DEBKAfile's sources, Asad and Iran's supreme ruler Ayatollah Ali Khamenei are prompted by the following motives: 1. Tehran is not prepared to wait passively for the Americans to build up their assault force in the Gulf and strike its nuclear facilities. A pre-emptive attack would suit them better. 2. Tehran and Damascus have not missed the debilitating crisis in which Israel's political and military leadership are sunk since the Lebanon war. They do not propose to wait until the IDF pulls itself together enough to handle fresh aggression. 3. Both accept Israel's deputy prime minister Shimon Peres' assessment that Israel's cities are not prepared for missile attack. Iran and Syria take it for granted that Israeli leaders understand they cannot afford to launch missiles against either one of them for fear of reprisal in kind. 4. Syria believes that if Hizballah could stand up to the Israeli army in Lebanon, its commandoes can capture sections of the Golan and walk off with an easy victory. 5. Tehran figures that the Bush administration is coming to the end of its patience in Iraq and preparing for a major review of its position there. The influential U.S. Senate Armed Services Committee Chairman, John Warner, said Friday that Iraq's government had 60 to 90 days to control the violence that threatens civil war or the United States would have to reconsider its options. This gives the Maliki government in Baghdad up to December or January to de-escalate if not halt the sectarian war engulfing the country. Iran, Syria and Hizballah would not be averse to disrupting the American Iraq timeline by attacking Israel and putting the Bush administration on the spot, forced to address three warfronts simultaneously.

[FairfieldLife] Re: Unfoldments of Brahman
--- In FairfieldLife@yahoogroups.com, Rory Goff [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: With deepest gratitude to MMY and Guru Dev, we wish to correct some Understandings of Brahman we gave here last year. Within the 27 Nakshatra-states, the middle third or 9 central ones are those of Brahma(n), or Light, or Consciousness: Brahma-Shiva-Shiva (B-S-S) or Mahaturiya Brahma-Shiva-Brahma (B-S-B) or Maharishi (Brahman) Brahma-Shiva-Vishnu (B-S-V) or Mahadevata (Krishna) Brahma-Brahma-Shiva (B-B-S) or Mahachandas (Shiva) Brahma-Brahma-Brahma (B-B-B) or Solar Angel, Lamp at the Door Brahma-Brahma-Vishnu (B-B-V), or chandas (U.C.) Brahma-Vishnu-Shiva (B-V-S), or devata (G.C.) Brahma-Vishnu-Brahma (B-V-B), or rishi (C.C.) Brahma-Vishnu-Vishnu (B-V-V), or turiya (T.C.) Within these 9, the centermost one is Brahma-Brahma-Brahma (B-B- B), the Lamp at the Door, the Solar Angel who resides in the Sacred Heart (Solar Plexus) as the intermediary between the Absolute (Rudra, Shiva, or Purusha) and the Relative (Indra, Vishnu or Shakti). In truth, this is the only state of Consciousness that actually exists -- the supreme radiance of the perfect Now, the juncture- point of Heaven and Earth. From here, we can (eventually) see that all the states that led here -- T.C. or Turiya (Brahma-Vishnu- Vishnu; B-V-V), C.C. or Rishi (Brahma-Vishnu-Brahma; B-V-B) G. C. or Devata(Brahma-Vishnu-Shiva; B-V-S), and U.C. or Chandas(Brahma-Brahma-Vishnu; B-B-V) are but identification with a time-bound particle or I within Our wholeness. We have been approaching the Now from an (unconscious) identification with a particle on the Relative side. But in actuality, there has been a very simple, innocent, unqualified Absolute side of Us approaching this Now as the Wholeness or container of the experience(s), in perfect reflection to the Relative side. When our particle-self thinks it is in T.C. (B- V-V), our Wholeness is Mahaturiya (B-S-S); when our particle- self attains C.C. or Rishi (B-V-B), our Wholeness is Brahman itself: that particle's Witness, its Maharishi (B-S-B); when our particle-self attains G.C. or Devata (B-V-S), our Wholeness is that particle's loving Personal God or Krishna-Avatar, its Mahadevata (B-S-V); and when our particle-self attains U.C. or Chandas (B-B-V), our Wholeness is that particle's Shiva, its Mahachandas (B-B-S). These two sides -- the Absolute and the Relative, the Whole and the Particle -- culminate in their fusion in the mid-most state of Brahma-Brahma-Brahma (B-B-B). The simple, ordinary, very quiet thought we had from the Absolute side with reference to nurturing our particles creates the intensely devotional appreciation of that thought from the Devata or sensory particle side, and the corresponding display of that thought as the Reality of the Outer, so that the rishi, devata, and chandas are fully appreciated as OneSelf. Thus we can say that C.C. is our particle's appreciation of our Brahman-Self; G.C. is our particle's appreciation of our Krishna- Self, and U.C. is our particle's appreciation of our Shiva-Self -- all culminating in ourSelf as Brahma(n), the Perfect Light of the Sacred Heart. This is our natural, simple, a priori state of consciousness. This is what we have always been, and what we always will be, regardless of the stories our Wholeness and our particles have been telling us/themselves. From here, the process continues -- with any and every particle we find within ourSelf. We first find ourselves identifying unconsciously with that particle, giving that particle unconscious sovereignty -- at this time the particle is in Ignorance in our Brahman. Then, we realize that this is not Us, but a particle within Us -- we then become that particle's Witness, its conscious Brahman - - while it is identifying with C.C. Then, we give that particle our loving attention, warming it up into its a priori bliss, becoming its personal God or Avatar or Krishna, while it is identifying with G.C. Then it perceives its ultimate identity with us in Shiva/U.C., and we finally come back to primordial Radiant Self. We are constantly throwing off particles of not-self, and re-integrating them back into ourSelf, as pulsations of our Now into all 9 (and eventually 27) states -- this is how we learn to appreciate ourSelf and our various qualities...

[FairfieldLife] Tehran and Damascus are gearing up for a pre-emptive Syrian attack
Tehran and Damascus are gearing up for a pre-emptive Syrian attack on Israel to ward off a US strike on Iran's nuclear sites Our military and Washington sources read as preparatory justification the Syrian ruler Bashar Asad's statement Saturday, Oct. 7, that he expects an Israeli attack. He was speaking in an interview to Kuwaiti paper al-Anba. Asad's Iranian-backed war plan would serve the purpose of forcing the Americans to divide their military assets between a strike against Iran and the defense of their allies in the Persia Gulf, Israel and US forces in Iraq. Both are seriously looking at a Syrian attack on the Golan which would escalate into a full-blown Syrian-Israeli war and a second Hizballah assault from Lebanon.

[FairfieldLife] UNIFIL seems to be doing NOTHING against resumption of Hizballahs rearmament
On Yom Kippur, Oct. 2, 24 hours after the last Israeli soldier left South Lebanon and the day before UNIFIL published its rules of engagement, Hizballah placed roadblocks on all the approaches to the central sector of the South and the entrances to the towns and villages reoccupied by its forces and their rocket units. These enclaves were declared closed military zones. DEBKAfile's exclusive military and Western intelligence sources report that neither the Lebanese army which moved south nor the international peacekeepers of UNIFIL venture to set foot in these enclaves. Nor did they raise a finger to block the first broad- daylight consignment of advanced Iranian weapons to be delivered in Lebanon via Syria since the August 14 ceasefire. This coordinated Hizballah-Iranian-Syrian ploy has brought into question the point of UN Security Council Resolution 1701 which was to prevent the resumption of hostilities and Hizballah's rearmament while helping the Beirut government and army assert its sovereignty in the South. It has also made a mockery of the UN Force and its missions. These developments effectively assign UN Security Council resolution 1701 to the same dustbin as resolution 1559 which ordered Hizballah disarmed. It is especially noted that the Israeli government has made no military or diplomatic response to these violations, or even informed the public that Hizballah has redeployed in the precise positions from which it blitzed Haifa, Nahariya, Carmiel, Acre and W. Galilee for more than a month. ... To subscribe, send a message to: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Or go to: http://groups.yahoo.com/group/FairfieldLife/ and click 'Join This Group!' Yahoo!

[FairfieldLife] FBI: Hizbullah still a threat
US counterterror experts testify that group continues to threaten Lebanese government, Israel and has ability to launch an attack on the US as well. FBI official: Hizbullah sympathizers in US raise money through money laundering, drug trafficking and fraud Associated Press US Counterterrorism officials on Thursday testified that Hizbullah 's capable, well-trained fighters continue to threaten the survival of Lebanon's government, Israel and US interests around the world. Frank Urbancic, a State Department counterterrorism official, told the House of Representatives' International Relations Committee that Hizbullah enjoys a symbiotic relationship with Iran and Syria , receiving money, arms and training. Counterterrorism official with the Federal Bureau of Investigation, John Kavanagh, called Hizbullah one of the world's most capable terrorist groups, A well-trained guerrilla force that is proficient in military tactics and weaponry. Hizbullah's leader Hassan Nasrallah recently told thousands of supporters that the group still has 20,000 rockets. Threat to US? Kavanagh said that although Hizbullah has the ability to launch an attack on the United States, it has not done so since the 1996 attack on the Khobar Towers dormitory in Saudi Arabia that killed 19 US military personnel. Hizbullah sympathizers in the United States, Kavanagh said, have laundered money, trafficked drugs and engaged in bank and credit card fraud. Hizbullah has acted as a willing partner in Iran's long-standing efforts to combat US interests it perceives as at odds with its own, Urbancic said. That relationship, he testified, remained firm throughout the 34 days of fighting between Israel and Hizbullah that ended with a cease-fire last month. We believe that Hizbullah's decision to exacerbate the conflict with indiscriminate rocket attacks into Israel targeting Israeli civilians could not have happened without at least the tacit support of Tehran, Urbancic said. Hizbullah's military profile has recently dipped in the south, he said, although it was unclear to officials if that was because of po litical concerns or losses suffered in the war. He said that Hizbullah has deep roots and broad support, noting its quick reconstruction and humanitarian work after the fighting with Israel ended, Well in advance of international donor efforts. A US indictment alleges that a smuggling ring in the state of Michigan dealt in contraband cigarettes and other items, steering some of the profits to Hizbullah guerrillas.

[FairfieldLife] Unholy Alliance: Radical Islam and the American Left / David Horowitz
I got the book Unholy Alliance: Radical Islam and the American Left today, which i wonder if anyone read and/or have opinion about. The irony is that i just found out that Chavez very much liked Noam Chomsky's book, Hegemony or Survival and recommended it. well, congrats to the left, you seem to prove Horowitz's points. Chomsky's book: Plug by Chavez proves lucrative Venezuela's president reference to Chomsky's book on US during UN speech results in huge boost to book's sales Merav Yudilovitch and AFP Published: 09.25.06, 18:16 Author Noam Chomsky's Hegemony or Survival: America's Quest for Global Dominance remained perched atop of Amazon.com's bestseller list, after its plug last week by Venezuelan President Hugo Chavez during a fiery UN speech condemning US President George W. Bush. The popular online company showed the 2003 book still as its biggest seller, after having claimed the top spot Friday following Chavez's recommendation of it as an excellent book to help us understand what has been happening in the world throughout the 20th century ... and the greatest threat looming over our planet.

A woman (or man) who chases 14-year-olds, especailly when they are professionally beautiful (as was the case with the former model) obviously has severe emotional problems. Getting involved romatically with a 14-year-old is never a good idea (even for other 14-year-olds!), but is a sign of serious emotional/mental issues for a 26-year-o;ld and to even hint that those issues won't reflect back on the 14- year-old is silly, at best. are you suggesting that I've said otherwise..?

Just as a question, do you really think that even in the TM movement they'll be able to find 2000 people who have so little going for them in their lives that they'll be able to put those lives on hold for a year for a measly 500 bucks a month? no, I don't; but the I can't make that assumption, some TMers are very successful in life and some are very poor, not much in the middle... I'm not convinced they'll hit the numbers. But if they do, I'm concerned about the long- term effects on the 2000 losers who do take them up on this offer. What are they going to do upon re-entering reality after a year of essentially being institutionalized? maybe so, remember we are talking about adult people here, most of them probably smart above the average.

However MMY is probably just being poetic and using flowery language for his feelings, so I was perhaps being a bit of a dick with my comment. My feeling when I heard the quote was that he had recently seen a photo of the Earth from space, but was trying to impress people by giving the impression that from his cosmic perspective, he was actually seeing it. what i see is that people are reading too much into every MMY's saying. I doubt if MMY intended to teach that other people's 'reality' is more real than their own, but many people behave in that manner.

[FairfieldLife] That Religion of 'Peace' again
Somalia: Italian nun's murder may be linked to Pope, official says Published: 09.17.06, 15:06 The killing of an Italian Catholic nun in Mogadishu on Sunday may well be linked to anger among Muslims about Pope Benedict's recent remarks on Islam, a senior source among Somalia's Islamists said. There is a very high possibility the people who killed her were angered by the Catholic Pope's recent comments against Islam, the source said.

[FairfieldLife] Re: Invincible America?
I'm not sure where you got the idea that Israel sees itself as invincible ? Being forced to defend yourself is far from a feeling of invincibility. invincible means being able to neutralize the enemy before a war take place. Once you are in a war situation both sides have casualties, both sides lose, hence it's far from being invincible to begin with. I also doubt if Americans imagine that they are invincible after 9/11 and with today's easy access to WMD. America, and rightly so, sees itself as a superpower but that's different thing from being invincible. --- In FairfieldLife@yahoogroups.com, TurquoiseB [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: rant mode ON The *last* thing this planet needs is an invincible America. IMO the only good thing to come out of the Iraq invasion and the recent invasion of Lebanon is that they have demonstrated that both the United States and Israel, *far* from being invincible with their stockpiles of the latest and greatest weapons on the planet, are basically helpless when dealing with a people who believe that they are fighting for the preservation of their own country and their way of life. All that both countries have done is demonstrated their own *weakness*. It's a lesson the French finally learned in Algeria (after believing in their own invincibility for decades) and tried to convey to the US when it invaded Iraq.

What is probably fueling this stock market rise is surges in the Defense industry.

The figure to the left is the ranking, figure to the right is the number of millions of dollars of sales, countries that sell 0 (less than a million) are left off. Answer to the math question -- total up the arms sales by ALL other countries on this list during 1999 and you get a combined total of 18,680 million, or only 56.6% of the arms sold by the U.S. during that same period.

That's where you take a stimulus that normally draws you back into an old, tired samskaric pattern, and instead of going there, you use the stimulus as a *reminder* to do the opposite of that samskaric pattern. In my case, one of my obvious samskaric patterns is that I allow Judy to suck me into her endless arguments and wind up writing too much here, instead of writing the film reviews and book chapters I'm supposed to be working on this summer. So my new plan is to let Judy's seemingly endless reservoir of bile *inspire* me instead of getting under my skin. Every time she slams me here on FFL, what I'm going to try to do is *instead* of doing what she wants me to do (that is, waste my time and my life the way she's wasted hers), but before you do this TI, you can't resist but to bash her one last time, is that it?! lol kind of, tomorrow I'll go on diet but now i have to have that steak.. anyway good luck :) I'll just sit down and write another film review, or a section of the book. Somehow I think I have a long summer's writing ahead of me. :-) It'll be an interesting experiment. Judy will keep slamming me, because that is just what she does, and if I keep to this plan, the more she slams me, the more salable writing I'll produce.
