To put not too fine a point on the matter. Nor to let *facts* get in the way of one's ignorant putdowns, either. Anybody who's paid attention to Lawson's posts over the years is aware he's extremely well versed in brain-wave research (and not just TM's research, either). Plus which, recently he's been working closely with Fred Travis, one of MUM's much-published (in independent journals) experts in EEG and related research on TM-- http://www.mum.edu/cosmic/faculty/travis --to develop a computer animation of brain-wave patterns in TMers. None of this necessarily means Lawson is competent to interpret EEGs on his own--as opposed to reporting research findings--but then he hasn't claimed to be able to do that, has he?

The only claim about TM is that sometimes people who already have > severe mental problems can't handle it. The DSM-IV classification referred to is in an appendix of the manual under the section "culture-bound syndromes" which is "a combination of psychiatric and somatic symptoms that are considered to be a recognizable disease only within a specific society or culture. There are no objective biochemical or structural alterations of body organs or functions, and the disease is not recognized in other cultures". "Qigong psychosis" is listed as pertaining to China only. This listing in no way implies that "qigong meditation leads to mental problems so often" as stated; in fact there is very little evidence of it in the scientific literature. The description also makes clear that the psychosis affects particularly vulnerable individuals who become overinvolved in the practice or do not practice it properly. This is something any reputable gigong teacher acknowledges. To say qigong meditation leads to psychosis is a misreading of the classification. Anyone familiar with the history of the sidhis knows that there have been hundreds of individuals who have experienced "an acute, time-limited episode characterized by dissociative, paranoid, or other psychotic or non-psychotic symptoms", the definition of qigong psychosis, and have been sent packing from governor trainings, mother divine, and MUM staff to the safety of their parent's homes or mental health centers (particularly the one in Mt. Pleasant). Does this mean that practice of the TM-sidhis lead to psychosis, as Spairag's logic implies? Of course not. It means that vulnerable individuals who overdue it without proper supervision can experience these symptoms. Note: Over 300 sidhas in ffld have been practicing a form of qigong for many years now with good results. One reason for its popularity here is the common experience that it is very grounding, something many sidhas need. PS: One of favorite stories from the late great steve schimer is how he and MMY would sit together and go over photos of CPs on the first 6 month sidhis courses in the 70s and identify the "1st floorers", ie - people who needed to be moved to the 1st floor of the hotel for fear they were getting so unstable they might try to fly out of their window. Maybe "1st floorers" should get a DSM-IV classification? To subscribe, send a message to: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Or go to: http://groups.yahoo.com/group/FairfieldLife/ and click 'Join This Group!' Yahoo!

[FairfieldLife] Re: Ask MMY(no, You ask Him?.)('samhita/impersonal')
--But (discussion below regarding St. Theresa of Avila...one of over 100 levitating Catholic Saints); the commonality among such Christian Saints was Jesus and Mary, not the impersonal Absolute. If realization of the Self were the sole requirement, then impersonalists would automatically be levitators; but we have not seen this association. However, there is a common attribute of the levitating Catholic Saints: out of body projection. In addition, (based on my assessment of the biographies of the Saints), few if any of the RC Saints seem to be E'd. (St. John of the Cross could have been, judging by descriptions of various states of progressive awareness in his autiobiographical works). He was another levitator and a contemporary friend of St. Theresa of Avila. My conclusion: levitation is a Siddhi which may or may not occur in conjunction with BC; and additional research should be undertaken (preferably through one's own experience); to ascertain the precise causations behind levitation: so that one can either keep the spectacle a secret or package and market it, thus getting rich. - In FairfieldLife@yahoogroups.com, "Robert Gimbel" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > > --- In FairfieldLife@yahoogroups.com, "sparaig" wrote: > > > > --- In FairfieldLife@yahoogroups.com, "authfriend" wrote: > > > > > > --- In FairfieldLife@yahoogroups.com, Peter > wrote: > > > > > > > The Holy Ghost/Holy Spirit is the impersonal aspect of > > > > God. > > > > > > Not the Godhead (the "Samhita" of the Trinity)? > > > > > > > How can samhita be impersonal? > It seems like it would be both, personal and impersonal; > The part of it that is universal is impersonal; > And the part of it that is 'refracted' thru you; > Is personal. > So, the whole Jesus metaphor; > Which I believe is misunderstood by the masses thru time... > Is that the soul, or the Holy Spirit, was fully expressed thru him. > And he demonstrated some of the abilities associated with this state > of consciousness, as Maharishi has tried to do, with the Siddhis, > etc. and other extraordinary powers... > So, I'm sure, to go back to the Saint Teresa analogy; > When she became engulfed in the energy of the Holy Spirit; > It was enough to lift her up into the air; > So, part of her was lifted up by it. > And part of it was lifted up by it thru her. > Make sense to anyone? > Good... > R.G. > . > > > To subscribe, send a message to: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Or go to: http://groups.yahoo.com/group/FairfieldLife/ and click 'Join This Group!'

I guess the Holy Spirit in Sanskrit terms could be just the idea of prana, or the 'Breath of God' Or that invisible thing called 'Love'; Like the invisible force called 'Gravity'; Which we are all trying in some small way... To Overcome (we shall overcome, someday...); So, the more prana you have; Or the more Holy Spirit you have; Or can hold in you container (The Body); Well, then this is the key to 'Levitation'; Because, as I have heard (thru the grapevine); That a Catholic Saint, by the name of Teresa of Avila, She did appear to 'Levitate'; In the company of many witnesses, in her church; When experiencing the comfort and 'Bliss'; Of the Holy Spirit; Flowing thru her; It filled her with such energy; That she actually would 'lift up off the ground, quite high; And quite embarrassed; As she had little control over; When this 'Levitation', would all of the sudden, happen... So, guys and gals; Keep up the good work; And hopefully; We'll all be a 'Levitatin', soon, Like: "Back in the Day"; Saint Teresa of Avila, Jai Guru Dev > > To subscribe, send a message to: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Or go to: http://groups.yahoo.com/group/FairfieldLife/ and click 'Join This Group!'

[FairfieldLife] Re: Ask MMY(no, You ask Him...)
I attended a Catholic mass once. During the sermon the priest said: "The holy spirit is like water. God, the father, is like ice. And Jesus, his son, is like slightly melted ice." I immediatly thought of MMY's H20 analogies (water, vapor, ice)- and wondered if the priest was a meditator. My take, FWIW, is that the holy spirit is a vibration (an unmoved mover) within the universal consciousness - stillness on the move - that is manifested when "one's" attention is put on it. In groups, it manifests more clearly due to collective consciousness effects. As in: when two or more are gathered in my name "I AM" "present". The holy spirit, IMO, is not a noun - an object, but a verb. The process of silence becoming aware of itself - when small, relative self splashes into the silence of big, absolute self - and the waves of nurturing influence spread into creation in a palpable way.

On Aug 2, 2006, at 10:16 AM, Robert Gimbel wrote:The Holy Ghost/Holy Spirit is the impersonal aspect of God. The actual words for "Holy Spirit' in Aramaic/Hebrew is Ruach HaKodesh and it is a form of shakti which makes prophecy possible. In tantric terms it would be the downward descent of shakti once kundalini reaches the crown chakra. This mystery is also concealed in the shape of the Hebrew letter Shin, which looks like a downward moving dove. Well, that image makes total sense, and goes along with the prayer of Jesus: 'Our Father who art in Heaven, Hallowed be thy Name, Thy Kingdom come, Thy Will be done, on earth, as it is in Heaven... Give us this day, our daily bread, and forgive our tresspasses, as we forgive those that trespass against us; And lead us not into temptation, But deliver us from evil; For thine is the Kingdom, the Power, and the Glory, forever, and ever, Amen. So, it's bringing Heaven from above, opening the crown chakra; And bringing the energy of the Holy Spirit, down into the earth... Om Shri Shakti Namah Om Shri Shivaiyam Namah Om Also the "secret" name of Jesus, which is IHVH with "Shin (Sh)" in the middle:IHShVH or Yeheshuah, the Holy Spirit descending into the Four Worlds (of IHVH), HaShem becomes "flesh", and each one of us hopefully. __._,_.___ To subscribe, send a message to: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Or go to: http://groups.yahoo.com/group/FairfieldLife/ and click 'Join This Group!'

If the Holy Spirit is parallel to what MMY calls the impersonal God (the Absolute, or Brahman), it would be metaphysically impossible for it to be "with" you, because you are It, and It is you, no? I'm not sure the Holy Spirit *is* parallel to the impersonal God, but I'm certainly no expert in Catholicism. FWIW, in Protestant Christianity--not sure about Catholic--the Holy Spirit is (among other things) said to be what enables one to perceive the truth of Scripture. I *think* the Holy Spirit would also be parallel to the Shechinah of Judaism, the divine presence that dwells within (Shechinah in Hebrew is a feminine noun, interestingly).

Well, that image makes total sense, and goes along with the prayer of Jesus: 'Our Father who art in Heaven, Hallowed be thy Name, Thy Kingdom come, Thy Will be done, on earth, as it is in Heaven... Give us this day, our daily bread, and forgive our tresspasses, as we forgive those that trespass against us; And lead us not into temptation, But deliver us from evil; For thine is the Kingdom, the Power, and the Glory, forever, and ever, Amen. So, it's bringing Heaven from above, opening the crown chakra; And bringing the energy of the Holy Spirit, down into the earth...

Yes, I forgot; It is the Holy Spirit, which is the impersonal aspect of God... So, is there any way to contact or imbibe the Holy Spirit- In the literature, or through contemplation, or what. Sometimes, when I get into a jam, I will think: Holy Spirit, be with me... So, I guess, that's an easy thing to do... But still transcendence remains the thing... That's where the power of the 'Light' is... In Beingness...and that is a hard thing to convey, As Maharishi likes to say; Without direct experience... > > > __ > Do You Yahoo!? > Tired of spam?

Qi Qong meditation leads to mental problems so often that there is an actual DSM-IV syndrome named after it: Qi Qong Psychosis. Kundalini techniques lead to this kind of thing often enough that there is a proposal for a similar section in the DSM-IV with Kundalini techniques. The only claim about TM is that sometimes people who already have severe mental problems can't handle it. BTW, the kid that murdered the other kid at MUM had apparently decided, *ON HIS OWN*, to stop taking his anti-psychosis meds. It's impossible to tell whether or not TM had anything to do with his behavior, but on its face, it doesn't seem likely. Going cold turkey off that kind of thing without medical supervision is well known to lead to ultra-violent behavior. No need to blame TM for it. > And what research do you have to back up your claims.?

I think you actually believe your own bullshit. What techniques tha t are detrimental are you referring to? And what research do you have to back up your claims.? Thruout India I have sat with various gurus who extolled the virtues of sadhana but never mentioned TM. Even at Jyotir Math the shankaracharya's right hand man, Ramananda Saraswati, told me his main sadhana was japa, not TM. Just because you write it , does not make it so. You should take a lie detector test. After reading a number of your posts I believe you will make up anything to justify your point of view and have a great need to be right, truth be damned.

The Baghavad Gita states this, in: "Action is always superior to inaction", because at least you get an answer... Didn't Maharishi hang out with some 'Heavy Dudes', in India? Didn't he hang with people like, Tat Wala Baba? Would Tat Wala Baba, be allowed in the Dome? So, I wouldn't be surprised, if someone would only ask... That has been the problem; there have been such controlling; People around Maharishi, that they intimidate; Even the asking of a perfectly relevant question: Very Sad!!!

I believe that. While I have never "been around him" in the sense that it was just a few people including myself in the room with him, the times I have seen him, mostly on the TOU course here and the first Holland course, a total of maybe a dozen times, he looked pretty removed and didn't say a word any of those times.

But I would think the fact that they are even *in* the dome would indicate that someone wouldn't have the guts to ask even a mildly confrontational question...right?

Anyone with the guts to do > so could ask him such a question. I didn't know Maharishi was calling the dome, everyday; That is certainly one-pointed of him, at his age... My limited experience in the presence of Maharishi; And a few interactions with him, during the seventies; And early eighties, doing some video with him; One thing I noticed, is that for him; It seems he can only put his attention on the positive; I would watch his eyes, and where he would look; And it would always seem he would look to find the joy; Or bliss, wherever it was in the room, on the terrace; wherever... Also, you feel the 'Unity Consciousness', radiating from him; So, what you speak to him, it's as if you feel like you are speaking to yourself- and it can be quite disconcerting, especially if your ego is very engaged. So, it is strange that he is surrounded by the types of people; Who he has around him, But, I guess, it's about money, and the discipline of one's with that kind of money, to devote themselves to him with an undieing love... > To subscribe, send a message to: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Or go to: http://groups.yahoo.com/group/FairfieldLife/ and click 'Join This Group!'

It all seems cosy and stage managed. He doesn't want feedback. Paul mentioned him turning up unexpectedly (a few posts back). This will have been in the late fifties or early sixties when teaching was expanding, and the world situation was improving. M walls himself off, and now I am told that the bottom has fallen out of teaching, weekend courses, sidhi courses, SCI etc etc. We have become a grey haired movement.

Maharishi is surrounded by numerous annuluses of poor quality worker bees who provide an impenetratable barrier, and keep him "in splendid isolation". Uns. He’s calling in to the dome everyday, and people are asking him questions. As far as I know, the questions aren’t screened.

I doubt he really cares much one way or another, and seeing as how most here wouldn't go in any case, it's pretty much of a moot point, which was what I was trying to say.

Are you saying MMY ought to get out more?
