Radically Spiritual: Fairfield, Iowa. 




A Top City for Meditation
26 Square Miles Surrounded by Reality
Fairfield may be surrounded by reality somewhere, but what about inside the 
town and the university? The vast cacophony of conflicting spiritual ideas 
makes the place a hotbed of fantasy and discord. 
Spiritual ideas, along with political ones, make one of the primary reasons for 
discord in the world and communities. In such a situation, hypocrisy is the 
standard mode of thought.
Eclectic means deriving ideas, style, or taste from a broad and diverse range 
of sources. The TM movement in its official capacity in Fairfield certainly 
does not want that as it only want once source for its ideas.

I’ve been surveying folks for re-freshed Fairfield taglines and I rattled off 
some of these suggested tag lines for the Mayor recently. He was quite open and 
appreciative of the range. This week I’ll visit some of the folks working on 
this and share these FFL links.   ...Other ideas?

What is going on in Fairfield, Iowa?  How is it going in Fairfield?  Anymore in 
reply I usually start off by confirming, “..We’re a bunch of 
Transcendentalists”, to contextualize what is going on here.  









The Fairfield,Iowa aspect of there being a larger more eclectic spiritual 
practice community, larger than just the TM story, is certainly a mature 
feature of present day in Fairfield. People evidently do come to see that and 
some are moving to Fairfield for this.







For those who think practically about an economic reality of 'tourism' that 
does come to Fairfield, Iowa this ‘branding’ as a communal exercise helps 
clarify our own thinking about Fairfield as a community and also helps in the 
sharing with others insights into Fairfield, Iowa as a place.

If it was the Bevanites doing it as they have said it in the past it would be, 
“Fairfield is for those who have faith and belief in Maharishi, and everyone 
else should leave”. But after 40 years they are a smaller part of the larger 
meditating community that is gathered here now.   Quite evidently they do not 
entirely represent what is going on in Fairfield, Iowa spiritually.  But quite 
evidently something else mature has set into ‘spiritual’ Fairfield that people 
do come to see and people are moving to.
 

 It could be to everyone's advantage if the PR people could recognize that in 
the taglines they come up with and the town elders would accept it.
