He set it up at the beginning of the talk, when he did that riff about it not being necessary to believe all of this, even if a Big Blue Genie was saying it.

[FairfieldLife] Re: Hagelin's Response
For sure, the upper echelon of the movement likely watched the whole thing, as it does have the potential to affect the bottom line and fragment the movement. For me, I saw about 30 seconds of the presentation and went to lunch, so I am just relying on what others here have said Hammond said. As soon as a spiritual leader dies, and sometimes even before, the nutters are free to take wing, and the fragmentation and disintegration of whatever that teacher taught begins among the followers. It is just the way it happens. ---In FairfieldLife@yahoogroups.com, wrote : My advanced psychic powers are enabling me to see that even now Little Johnnie Hagelin is composing a response to George Hammond's self indulgent 3 hour spiritual fantasy.

[FairfieldLife] Re: Hagelin's Response to Hammond's Nov. 30 TM Meeting
Dear ones; about Apostasy: I was away at a conference last week and over the weekend of a scholarly group that studies communal groups like ours. Within one paper of a session I learned yet another means or phrase for describing people who separate themselves or are separated from 'the group'.. At the Amana Colonies for instance, a spiritual ashram in their time very much like our own in aspects here now, as individuals might withdraw for their own reasons or were sent out from the group as being asocial, “The blessings of the Lord [Unified Field] may be withdrawn.” Well just like some here have fallen 'off the program', clearly some have not only fallen off the cart but were clearly left behind... 'the blessings of the Unified Field, withdrawn'. Good Fortune is great though in how infinitely compassionate the natural law of the Unified Field is. For certainly whether pure or impure, whether purity or impurity is reining everywhere, who so ever opens themselves to the unbounded awareness of the Unified Field gains inner and outer purity. Make haste friends, take quiet time and Come back to meditation. Jai Guru Dev, -Buck in the Dome Subject: Re: [FairfieldLife] Hagelin's Response to Hammond's Nov. 30 TM Meeting Anartaxius writes: Buck, if you have happened to have read Michael' posts here, he seems very passionate in what he feels is right, not cold at all. And all of us here have had the 'blessings' of the movement and it has produced what you see here on FFL. The result is as varied as life itself. Maybe only 10% of those who learn TM stick with it, and 90% end up doing something else or just stopping. Those who drop off but do something else that works for them, be happy for them. Some drift off the spiritual path, and some reach the end of the path and walk off (the only rational thing to do in that case). Those that oppose the movement are testing its mettle, its truthfulness, its integrity, for they find it wanting. The ones that are dangerous are the ones that remain on the path forever; they are the ones that have truly failed. turquoiseb writes The last sentence contains a valuable point. What could be more *embarrassing* than spending 30 or 40 years of one's life pursuing a spiritual path that led nowhere, and then actually being content with being nowhere? awoelflebater writes : Where is "nowhere"? Sounds like a Zen koan of some sort. Think of it, "I am nowhere" and let's add, "I am nobody". How does that work? Sounds positively transcendental. You have to be nowhere and nobody to have arrived and to become. LOL. Buck offers: I feel this is completely unfair and unrealistic: “What other group would proactively attempt to squelch it, as "Raja" (that's ludicrous in itself) Hagelin did? Groups certainly defend themselves against others and have a right to do that for survival against others. That is part of the life of having groups to belong to. Well run corporations do it. Well run countries do this by running vision and mission. Let me quote to you George Washington or Abraham Lincoln or Winston. Actually I have paraphrased them all and many others many times here. They certainly were effective leaders doing what they came to do in time and Hagelin too. But you people, are as cold and immovable as stone weight. Is it no wonder that you are so withdrawn to the blessings of the movement? Like Buddha the compassionate one on earth we meditate in the Dome here for you, Let there be Peace, -Buck Subject: [FairfieldLife] Hammond's Nov. 30 TM Meeting It is the job of a good leadership to cheer-lead the corporate [communal] mission and organization for life in the organization to be effective. I can understand that you may have trouble with this. That is okay as some people 'do groups' better than others. That is a characteristic or skill-set that comes in combination proly somewhere between nature and nurture. But I would expect that John Hagelin should respond and set the record straight as to where the main-line existing TM community is with this. -Buck It certainly is okay that John Hagelin is leading the group this way.

If the emphasis is on "assessing the content," why is it being promoted as being a message from MMY? The truth is that for some weird reason, Hammond is using this ploy to promote his own views.
