As studies show, what you are doing is less effective than TM. Do contact a

Hey Raunchydog...

You asked if it was TM or something else that precipitated my need to hire 
Knapp.

I did not hire Knapp due to my short TM involvement in the mid 1970s. 

I hired Knapp in 2008 *specifically* due to my involvement with an anti-cult 
group which I got involved with in 2006 after leaving a fundamentalist-type 
Bible org, The Way International. 

I was involved with The Way from 1977 through 2005. Left The Way and got 
involved with the anti-Way group which ended up similar to The Way (false 
accusations, paranoia, us/them, black/white thinking type stuff)...just on the 
other side; ie: anti instead of pro. Knapp seemed to offer a kind of middle 
road to try to help me make sense of my entanglement when I found him in 2008.

I have an introductory overview to my general Knapp timeline here:
http://tossandripple.blogspot.com/p/december-2012-over-next-month-or-so-i.html

This FFL Knapp discussion has ended up on two different threads...thus part of 
the context is missing in this thread. I responded in this thread to one of 
Share's Knapp comments in this thread, and thus the subject came up here. (Not 
saying anything is wrong with that, but rather that is how it ended up on this 
thread.) The 'Knapp' thread is here:
http://groups.yahoo.com/group/FairfieldLife/message/331516

Cheers...

 Carol, I'm not clear on the timeline of your involvement with Knapp and maybe 
 you wrote about this and I missed it. According to the link below, Knapp got 
 his LMSW in 2005. Since you only practiced TM for a short while 75-76, you 
 must have seen Knapp as a client quite a few years later. It doesn't make 
 sense that TM precipitated your need to hire him. Was it TM or something 
 else?

Hey Buck,

I'm not sure what kind of bust means.

By meditate, if you are asking if I practice mantra based meditation? No.

I endeavor to practice mindfulness. I do some other practices of focusing in my 
heart area and on my breath.

I gather from some of your posts here that you might live in Fairfield and 
visit the dome(s)and have been a long-time meditator?

Carol, you really should learn TM, there's some really useful spiritual 
instruction in it.  Even learn the TM checking notes and become a meditation 
checker too.  Then the Patanjali technique kind of puts it all together, TM and 
buddhistic together.  Actually the last technique Maharishi was working on 
before he died was a real nice blend of transcending and mindfulness.  It was 
very subtle.  Well, it was working on the subtle bodies in effect.  It all 
certainly was there but don't get too distracted by Knapp.  There's much larger

Thanks for the suggestion Buck, but I'm currently not in the market.

I actually learned TM back in 1975 when I was a teenager. I did my 2 X 20 + 
more for about 1-1/2 years. Took SCI and volunteered at the TM Center. Then I 
moved along.

So, what does kind of bust mean?

   Hey Buck,
   
   I'm not sure what kind of bust means.
   
   By meditate, if you are asking if I practice mantra based meditation? No.
   
   I endeavor to practice mindfulness. I do some other practices of focusing 
   in my heart area and on my breath.
   
   I gather from some of your posts here that you might live in Fairfield 
   and visit the dome(s)and have been a long-time meditator?
   
  
  
  So, you don't practice a transcending meditation as part of your 
  mindfulness.  Hey Nablusoss, we got another buddhist here on the list.

 There are more similar(?) stories to Knapp's at the Trancenet site 
 here:

 A bit more about Trancenet:

 I don't know that much about Trancenet; only what I've read online 
 and what others have stated/written about it. The folks on FFL that 
 have been around awhile know more about it than I do. I'm pretty much 
 an outsider in that regard.


Dear Carol,  You kinda bust on here.
Do you meditate?  Are you a meditator?
Just wondering,

  Plus Judy according to archives I actually did thank you after your 
  first post:
  
  331545 your first post to me
  
  331556 my response to you which ends with a thank you, albeit a 
  gingerly given thanks, like sticking my big toe in the water to 
  check the temp.  I have been gingerly communicating with Ravi also.
  
  
  Next, Alex also gives me info about this topic.
  
  
  Then 331561 your second and last post to me about all this.
  Then Bhairitu offers info about all this.  Thank you.  
  
  
  Carol, thank you for info about JK.  His descriptions of the TMO 
  match my experiences by about 10% if that!  Very strange.
  
  Whew!

  OK, Share, thanks.  
  
   And I appreciated when you took up for me with turq.  Though
   I will admit that my first reaction to that was huh?

you explained electronic mailing list to me.
   
   Hmmm. But no thanks to Judy for having taken two posts to
   explain to you in some detail the structure and terminology
   of FFL's Web interface.
   
   That's pretty funny, Share. So subtle you are!

 Thanks for the suggestion Buck, but I'm currently not in the market.
 
 I actually learned TM back in 1975 when I was a teenager. I did my 2 X 20 + 
 more for about 1-1/2 years. Took SCI and volunteered at the TM Center. Then I 
 moved along.
 
 So, what does kind of bust mean? 
 

Carol, I'm not clear on the timeline of your involvement with Knapp and maybe 
you wrote about this and I missed it. According to the link below, Knapp got 
his LMSW in 2005. Since you only practiced TM for a short while 75-76, you must 
have seen Knapp as a client quite a few years later. It doesn't make sense that 
TM precipitated your need to hire him. Was it TM or something else?

  Carol, you really should learn TM, there's some really useful spiritual 
  instruction in it.  Even learn the TM checking notes and become a 
  meditation checker too.  Then the Patanjali technique kind of puts it all 
  together, TM and buddhistic together.  Actually the last technique 
  Maharishi was working on before he died was a real nice blend of 
  transcending and mindfulness.  It was very subtle.  Well, it was working on 
  the subtle bodies in effect.  It all certainly was there but don't get too 
  distracted by Knapp.  There's much larger things at stake.  Most of us just 
  filter the dissonance and take what is particularly good.  Like a great

 God, you're idiotic sometimes not to mention robotic. Judy, I hope he was

 Adonis because it sure isn't his rapier intellect.
 

Nope. Buck's intellect is fine. He's just under a lot of pressure. Judy made 
him stop dating otters.
