 Meeting 5, Community Forum, Fairfield, Iowa

 Subject:  Super Radiance and the Fairfield Dome Meditation Numbers
 December 13, 2017
 An advertised public meeting held at the meeting hall of Phoenix Rising in 
Fairfield, Iowa

 Scribed Minutes of an Open-microphone for expressing communal Intentions...

 Intending For Super Radiance and numbers meditating in Fairfield..

 That Fairfield, Iowa be known as a Meditation Meccah without limit.

 Intention that there be a feeling of welcome, freedom. 

 That we are together in this alternative community all over town.

 Intend that there be a sense of family with heartfelt commitment to community 
and family.

 That there once again be a feeling of group accomplishment, 
 like before with the 2.5 k meditating in the Domes.

 Encouraging meditators too. (vs. Sidhis-centric super radiance).

 Encourage a healthy environment for children and families, more sidhas, more 
entertainment in the presentation. Spaciousness. 

 Intend that the entire community can be proud. 
 
 Intending a community goal of having a top lifestyle, an affirming goal in our 
collective consciousness.

 Finding Friendliness, Compassion, Happiness in community. 

 Intending dedicated enthusiasm for drawing on and promoting the resource of 
our students, all ages, and all generations.

 Intend to promote the asset of the gold coming from the silence of meditation 
here, that people come to Fairfield for respite of the silence and the value in 
life of this.

 Intend that the leadership of the ™ movement themselves be in the Dome 
meditation with the group.

 Intend that we stop the teaching (pedagogy) by rote but that there be a new 
narrative with engagement.

 Intend to become a model for other communities.

 In the economy here, that we have Dome friendly jobs again.

 That we support each other going to the Domes.

 That we are having fun as a community.

 Intent on making everyone whole in their relationship with the TM .org.

 Creating better partnerships between the campus and the meditating community 
in processes by which we will create progress.

 Beyond peace and invincibility, market spirituality to the ‘young yogis’ of 
the new generations, in particular. That they come to Fairfield for the 
cultivating spiritual experience we have here.

 That the ™ .orgs be open to adaptability and flexibility themselves (SCI steps 
of Progress)

 These Scribed Notes on expressed intentions from the meeting are 
 transcribed here by Doug Hamilton


 The larger meeting progressed on in sequence after the introduction and this 
open ‘intentions’ part of the meeting to officials of the ™ community 
discussing general policy and processings for specific membership in the Dome 
meditation, ending with an open microphone addressing considerations for action 
on how to increase the numbers meditating collectively in Fairfield, Iowa.  

 Towards expanding numbers in the Domes, a long and short of it..

 Encourage people to join conditionally.  People can read the guidelines and 
decide if and how they would want to apply and be part of the group.
 .

 A fifth Communal Meditatiing Fairfield Meeting tonite, 

 ..substantial presentation and short discussions considering the long term 
adversity within the collapse of numbers attending the daily group meditations 
in the Domes in Fairfield by the affect of the TM movement’s ongoing 
administrative monitoring of people’s private lives.

In addition to point six of at least four more capable executives added, look 
to gender balance the ICG. Also add to the list, having a communal presence of 
(upper policy) leadership. 
 

 Even after fire walls to input went up of course interested people of good 
intent have continued to consider matters. If one is open to consideration of 
things this is pretty good critical thinking in synopsis about things here 
including action steps.

extraterritorial to the .org’s corporate colonial structures as what evidently 
operates as the corporate-colonial ™ movement.

 The holding of these particular Community Forum meetings recounted in this

 P.S.,
 Respect?  Actually, it is in an active Civil Disobedience to a monitoring 
invasiveness in to folk’s private lives by the membership guidelines that so 
many old initiator-Governors and Citizen Sidha meditators have kept the ‘Dome 
numbers’ up for so many years. I see them there meditating in the Dome every 
day.  Our ‘Frightened liars’, by their conscience to a higher understanding in 
a civil disobedience to what were ‘the guidelines’. These people are heroes in 
a right to their support of the ‘collective numbers’ meditating in the Domes by 
their conscience in resisting the guidelines. Good souls.

 This is wonderful stuff.  
 

 (I ask constructively and with optimistic interest and intent), how much 
progress is being made on these themes and initiatives? I appreciate that 
people may enthusiastically brainstorm good ideas at a meeting. How much is 
being systematically thought through, researched, plans being developed, 
communicated and reviewed by the community?   For exmple, is there a project 
plan being developed with the same scope and detail as a business plan for 
which one is seeking funding. 
 

 I sense that they are still in the idea realm.  For example, I don't see any 
websites, blogs, discussion boards articulating and refining these visions. 
Maybe too soon for such. 

 

 Are the TMO, university, town governent, community  working together on these 
initiatives? Or is it more a sense of "ho hum, a new grand initiative that will 
fade as have many others?'  
 

 I do think there is a lot of potential in many of these ideas that may appeal 
to some significant demographics, mindsets and valuesets.

 Thank you for coming to the meeting on Sunday and contributing as so many of 
you did!  Twenty seven people came together to begin the discussion of what we 
want to support, develop and create in Fairfield for people as they live and 
age and move through end of life care.  
 
 A very organic, largely volunteer level of care has been happening in 
Fairfield all along…many people generously, compassionately coming forward to 
care for others as the need arises.  This will continue as it should!  The 
interest here is to see people generally planning ahead and see to areas that 
could be better coordinated in order to serve more people more effectively and 
see fewer people “fall through the cracks” in receiving the care they require 
and better support primary caregivers. 
 
 Relying on government services as they continue to be slashed and dismantled 
on state and national levels is not as realistic in the coming years.  This is 
a time to create what we want.
 
 The following are ideas/concerns people expressed.  It is just a start.  If 
you see an area here that you would like to weigh in on and/or help with, 
please indicate that by putting an “X” by it and returning it to me…

 We will have our next meeting  November 26th, 2 to 4 pm at the Hamilton house,

If you do not change direction, you may end up where you are heading.  -Lao-Tzu 

 Most of us migrated to be part of something larger.  Yes, there is a 
Management problem here in that our leadership is not leading with mission 
first. As old initiators we always taught the importance of meditating in 
groups and now we know so much more science about this than before.  

 There needs to be visible leadership from the podium on down with focus on 
facilitating the mission of group meditation. It has gone on too long here 
without effective leadership. 
  

 Held on to at upper levels is profound confusion conflating administrative 
policy with ‘purity of the teaching’,  conflating an equivalence that gets in 
the way of success.  Effortless meditation is the purity of the teaching. 
Administrative policy at its best is about implementation of effortless 
meditation as the teaching. Policy is about facilitating.  An entrenched 
problem is that we have embedded tru-believers as some leaders and 
administrative apparatchiks who assert that, “..if Maharishi said it, it 
(policy) can’t be changed”.  

 A chance we have for expanding the group practice of meditation possibly is 
with the two real PhD Drs. at the very top of the movement who are top Western 
trained scientists as well as devotees.  Possibly unbiased scientific ways 
could look at the data that we have collated about the collapse of the Dome 
meditation numbers.  It is good data and illustrates what was the 
administrative state of the Patterson-Morris era.
 

 
 Look at the data but then act on making policy changes towards once again 
facilitating the meditation here.  Maharishi made and changed policy all the 
time based on what was brought to him.  It is time for this ‘post-founder’ 
‘first generation’ leadership to review founding missions and mitigate policy 
toward better outcomes.

 Yikes!

 John Hagelin is what we have now as both conduit and father-figure for the 
community as to his level where direction and policy is made.  In 
re-constituting the meditating community it is real important that he be at 
these meetings listening and to confer.  
 It is great that Tom as a Trustee is facilitating this but it is particularly 
important that Hagelin be a presence at these meetings.  Bevan has been set 
aside, Tony Nader for reasons is not available. For the continuance (and 
expansion) of the meditative community here it is important that Dr. Hagelin 
now be a presence here.

like the Ukraine peace conference.

 Maharishi really wanted Dr. JH 'out there' in the public eye getting the word 
out. That is where he shines. He is focused on paying the bills, and project 
like the IAA, Kiev, the teaching movement, the university and school,  holding 
many things together. Not so occupied w hands on admin and policy. JH doesn't 
mainly create policy much anyway, or take much in the way of direct initiative 
that way. Those around him take initiative and get him involved. He listens

A most interesting moment at the Phoenix Rising meeting was to see how many in 
the audience raised their hands identified in their having been at the Amherst 
course when it was first asked that meditators move to Fairfield.  Those were 
not just pioneers heading West for land but radical Transcendentalists, coming 
forward like in the great European spiritual resettlements to America of 
transcendentalist separatists and of our American transcendentalist tradition.

Om for critical mass. Economists observed that Iowa small towns need a minimum

communal economic activity that happens at around 800 people. 
 One could worry about the fragmented elements of the Fairfield meditating 
community. There are maybe 250 people up in M. Vedic City and 200 faculty and 
staff on campus making up a core ™ community.  Then there is the town 
meditating community that has been fragmented off from the more tru-believer

Coffee haus satsanga notes: 

 The meditating community here needs acknowledgment, appreciation, gratitude, 
and sympathy.  Don’t just feed the mind with ‘knowledge’ meetings.  Meditators 
here also go to saints there because they feel better there. The ‘feel good’ 
was lost in the TM community because of the virulent TM culture of demeaning,  
patronizing, shady dealings.

 "They are terrified about losing control of some vedic idea."  
  
 "People making life in Fairfield are about their business and less likely to 
show up at a meeting with people who do not have personal filters.  They should 
meet with people who are about it doing community life."  
 

 "The movement has long shut the door on being included in the broader sense 
into a dynamic inclusive community that is meditating Fairfield.  The people 
who are making community happen were out of town that week visiting Ammachi.  
The admin will make their conclusions about what is not in their own minds from 
that?"  
 


"..It is not about ™, we all grew up here and made lives.  The campus is 
tangential to life in Fairfield."

 Increasing Means of support: 

 FW:  Buy on Amazon, Ebay = Donate to the Meditation Assembly

 

 An average of 5% of any purchase on Amazon, Ebay, and 250 other online stores 
will go the Invincible America meditation Assembly if you go to the following 
website (brightFutureNews.com) and click the green bar in order to go to the 
store you want:
 

 https://brightfuturenews.com/s hops?a=cipek 
https://brightfuturenews.com/shops?a=cipek

 

 Just click on the above link,  ​then ​
click on the green bar to shop, and choose among 250 shops, including Amazon, 
Ebay, and hundreds of other online stores.
 

 About half of the amount donated by the store will go directly to the IAA 
general fund, and about half will go directly to individuals and help 
meditators stay on the IAA and continue to uphold the United States to be more 
peaceful, just, free, and unified. 
 

 If meditators would like to receive support in half of the  ​donated amount 
(average 5% of purchase)​
 from every purchase ​ by others that​
 they inspire, they can sign up to become an affiliate member by clicking on 
the following link:
 

 https://brightfuturenews.com/m embers?a=cipek 
https://brightfuturenews.com/members?a=cipek

 

 If you  ​sign up to become a member via that link​
, you can send your own link to others, and will receive about half of the 
approximate 5% of every purchase your friends generate with their purchases. 
The other half of that approximately 5% will go to the IAA general fund. 
 

 Thank you very very much for helping move the Invincible America Assembly 
forward to create a bright future for us all.

Actually, the meeting in Phoenix Hall was quite good. I assume you did not go. 

No, I didn’t even know about it.  Supposedly there were flyers up all over, but 
I guess not where I shop.

There was scarcely a necktie in sight, and only a few Jai Guru Devs (which I 
suspect drive you crazy) were uttered.

Wow, that’s you.

 Hagelin even admitted that when he took over leadership of the movement, it 
was a "mess" regarding TM instruction. The fee was too high and no one was 
learning. Since then the fee has been lowered and initiations have gone up.

What’s it lowered to?  Let me guess…it’s still way too high.

 It must be the first time in history that a TM movement leader has admitted 
that anything at all in the movement was "a mess.”

We’re a bunch of communal transcendental meditationists with a range of 
affiliation and some of them came down into town to show their hand of their 
own concern.  They do need people and are starting the process to collaborate.  
It begins with a lot of listening and consideration. Yes of course we know the

week’s Commencement program and meetings of the Board of Trustees for the 
University.

FW, Notes from 6-21-17 Communal Meeting:

An incredibly powerful​, coherent​ community meeting took place ​last night 
(Wed.)​ at Phoenix Rising Hall. 

Approximately 275 people filled the hall to overflowing, with dozens sitting in 
aisles and standing in the back, and a large group of M.U.M. Trustees in front, 
with Tom Stanley, VP of MUM Board of Trustees, MCing the meeting, and Dr. John 
Hagelin and Mayor Ed Malloy also responding to comments and suggestions from 
the floor.​ A​fer a Welcome by Trustee Tom, Dr. Hagelin​ briefly summarized​ 
​the ​just​-​finished spectacular Ukraine Peace Conference attended by over 500 
VIP​s​ - the highest stature gathering ever exposed to the Peace Solutions we 
practice, and an inspiring overview of our community history by Mayor Malloy. 

By far most of the meeting consisted of suggestions and comments from the 
floor, regarding the state of our ​IAA Sidha​ community. Interestingly, about 
two thirds of the suggestions and comments had to do with the IAA, Super 
Radiance, and the Domes. ​​A powerful, tangible sense of re-awakening of our 
community spirit continued to build throughout the evening.​ ​​

Near the end of the meeting, Trustee Chris Wege gave a very stirring synopsis 
of what brought us here, holds us here, and the intense potential for growth 
and development that still exists here. ​. . in collaboration. 

Again and again, comments returned to supporting and growing the Invincible 
America Assembly, as though the group consciousness knew that the IAA (everyone 
who comes to Group Program) is the core of our community and M.U.M. 

The meeting was so successful, that​ was ​obvious, that more meetings will take 
place​, wi
