The idea is not to pay any more federal income tax than is required. According
to what I've read, over forty percent of American workers don't pay any income
tax at all. The real problem is the U.S. tax code!

Personally I'm against federal income taxation - I'm in favor of eliminating
the IRS and instituting a flat-tax. That would be fair and equal under the law.

income tax returns so fiduciary duty to investors would likely not apply.
Suggesting it would apply would mean that Trump's family members could sue him

Exactly. What is so wrong about running for president, without any history of 
giving back? Why shouldn't the national race be proclaimed as, "Orange"? Why 
not be hideously obese and point the finger at everyone else? Who needs real 
hair, anyway? I really think we all need to look deeply into our hearts as B2 
suggests, and not ever insult the racist, sexist, hateful moron Trump, until we

points!

It has to be a concerted effort by many, in terms of any chance of defeating
radicalism. You have to have bombs and you have to have those that refuse to be
intimidated and cowed by the threat of violence. You have to have those that
stay positive and refuse to stop discriminating between who is "the enemy" and
who is not and you have to have those that are prepared to bring out the
weapons if necessary. The world seems to be dividing into two groups - those
that are reacting in a way that only makes the situation worse and those who
are attempting to stay informed and reasonable.

As far as the KKK and other neo-Nazi or extreme right wing racist groups they
are out there, believe me. Germany and the US are pretty hardcore countries
where these kind of haters are rampant. The racist part often goes hand and
hand with a strong sense of patriotism and country.

Here is a handy list, while we're on the subject of aberration:

Speakin' of droids, have you seen the new Channel4 show Humans?  It

series.


And a head ups for 'Under the Dumb I mean Under the Dome fans.  Two 
episode debut on CBS in the US tonight.  Many of us though began calling 
it Under the Dumb last season.

According to A.J. Bahm, objects appear in consciousness as wholes, or 
gestalts. They enter experience already made. Some unconscious or 
subconscious process determines our conscious experiences for us, even 
though we can never become aware of it. The mystery of consciousness may 
never be explained satisfactorily, but it is obvious, to those who 
reflect, that something happens within us to make us see things the way 
we do. This something must be taken into account in explaining the 
nature of knowledge. Perhaps the most startling construction is that of 
consciousness itself.

Impressive, so perhaps you can help. For starters please clarify what you mean 
by Slice the vegetables on the bias because I just will not discriminate 
against any vegetable, green or blue, because vegetables are my friends.

I love dairy. Got milk?

Wanna eat out together sometime? I yearn (there's that word again) for 
restaurants. I believe it's because, knowing the time and place of my 
ioncarnation, I want to enjoy NYC to the max this time around.

Slicing vegetable on the bias is an old teaching that we learned from 
George Ohasawa, the founder of the Macrobiotic diet and philosophy and 
Michio and Aveline Kushi who helped to introduce modern macrobiotics to 
the United States. Sanpaku (three-spaces empty) refers to traditional 
Japanese physiognomic diagnosis in which eyes can be seen to present a 
white area below as well as to each side of the iris when viewed 
straight on. Slicing on the bias refers to cutting at an angle - one of 
the requirements in cooking the macrobiotic way.

If consciousness is a series of impulses, why do we seem to be conscious

Trying to follow the news reports posted here, it seems to me that we can 
discern a few things about the pundit project, how it is run, and what that 
says about TM, the TMSP, and the TMO:

- First, and above all else, the MUM administration knows nothing at all about 
what is happening inside the pundit compound. We can infer this from the fact 
that they felt the need to plant non-Indian spies inside the compound to find 
out. 

- Second, I think we can infer from the above that everything is being run by 
Girish  Co. and Maharishi's relatives in India, who rake in a hefty bundle 
every year from the indentured servants they've managed to place in America. 
And that the MUM/American TMO is not happy about that.

- Third, and possibly most damning, the MUM (and TMO) administration has so 
little faith in its flagship product TM that it didn't believe that the pundits 
were actually *practicing* it, and felt the need to plant spies to confirm 
that they were meditating. What does this say about *their* belief in TM taking 
advantage of the natural, spontaneous tendency of the mind to seek greater 
fields of charm and bliss (which are supposedly provided by TM)?

- The MUM/TMO administration obviously feels that it has the basic right to 
discipline human beings who work for the princely sum of $50 per month (with 
*maybe* another $150 going to their families) to force them to practice TM and 
do what they're told. They even issued a press release saying that more such 
discipline is planned. 

- The MUM/TMO administration, despite their business-as-usual spin, is fully 
aware of how damning an incident this is. We can infer this from the fact that 
the person handling all press releases and interviews is the organization's top 
lawyer, not one of the top TMO shills like Hagelin, who is nominally in charge 
of the project. 

- The official policy of the TMO is *still* quiet excommunication for anyone 
who doesn't do as he was told. Mishra refused to allow his buddies to be spied 
upon, so the MUM/TMO's immediate reaction is to try to put him on a plane and 
send him back to India. This is basically the *same* policy that has been in 
place for decades, starting with quietly spiriting away anyone who freaked out 
or attempted suicide on long TM courses in Europe. The policy cares nothing 
about the person being spirited away, and is designed only to protect the PR 
image of the TMO itself.

Well said Barry. But the TMO wouldn't blink an eye at paying the pundits $50 a
month - that's what the lowly meditators were paid in the mid 80s when I was
there (and that was before MIU took out Social Security tax)

to follow the news
reports posted here, it seems to me that we can discern a
few things about the pundit project, how it is
run, and what that says about TM, the TMSP, and the TMO:

- First, and above all else, the MUM administration knows
nothing at all about what is happening inside the pundit
compound. We can infer this from the fact that they felt the
need to plant non-Indian spies inside the
compound to find out.

- Second, I think we can infer from the above that
everything is being run by Girish Co. and
Maharishi's relatives in India, who rake in a hefty
bundle every year from the indentured servants they've
managed to place in America. And that the
MUM/American TMO is not happy about that.

- Third, and possibly most damning, the MUM (and TMO)
administration has so little faith in its flagship product
TM that it didn't believe that the pundits were actually
*practicing* it, and felt the need to plant
spies to confirm that they were meditating. What
does this say about *their* belief in TM taking advantage of
the natural, spontaneous tendency of the mind to seek
greater fields of charm and bliss (which are supposedly
provided by TM)?

- The MUM/TMO administration obviously feels that it has the
basic right to discipline human beings who work
for the princely sum of $50 per month (with *maybe* another
$150 going to their families) to force them to practice TM
and do what they're told. They even issued a press
release saying that more such discipline is
planned.

- The MUM/TMO administration, despite their
business-as-usual spin, is fully aware of how damning an
incident this is. We can infer this from the fact that the
person handling all press releases and interviews is the
organization's top lawyer, not one of the top TMO shills
like Hagelin, who is nominally in charge of the project.

- The official policy of the TMO is *still* quiet
excommunication for anyone who doesn't do as he
was told. Mishra refused to allow his buddies to be spied
upon, so the MUM/TMO's immediate reaction is to try to
put him on a plane and send him back to India. This is
basically the *same* policy that has been in place for
decades, starting with quietly spiriting away anyone who
freaked out or attempted suicide on long TM courses in
Europe. The policy cares nothing about the person being
spirited away, and is designed only to protect the PR image
of the TMO itself.

- This policy was about to be enforced without
ever speaking to the pundits themselves. We can infer this

Is there any evidence that Girish and his relatives get any money from 
the TMO pundit program - I may have missed this in the news articles 
posted to FFL. According to my sources, almost all of the money used to 
support the program comes from the contributions and donors.

You seem to be taking a special interest in the TMO pundit boy program, 
but I wonder: is this just a chance to pick another fight with Judy?


My guess is that the instances of kidnapping for transportation to the 
Americas as indentured servants in America was rare in the past and 
probably non-existent today - the term indentured servant isn't even 
applicable in the pundit program case, since these are just students on 
a school work study program. Have any of the students or their parents 
lodged any complaints to the authorities?

More musings on the Ravi Incident, and what we can learn about the general 
pitfalls of the spiritual path from it. Personally, I think cartoonist Gahan 
Wilson answered the question in my Subject line the best:


Nothing happens next. You're just enlightened, that's all. BFD.

There is no payoff, no what should happen. As far as I can tell, life goes 
on pretty much as it did before, with the universe reacting to your 
enlightenment with a mighty yawn and a quiet, Big Fuckin' Deal...you were 
*expecting* something?

One of the things I've noticed in my travels in and around the spiritual 
smorgasbord, however, is that people *are* expecting something. And that that 
something is sometimes both unrealistic and dangerous, both for the newly 
awakened and for those around them.

Take Ravi. Given his upbringing, now that he's had a minor awakening that he 
interprets as major, he can conceive of only *one* something that he expects -- 
that he should become a guru and have others relate to him *as* a guru and 
receive his moksha or darshan or Wonderful Woo Woo. I'm gonna go out on a 
limb here and say that this is not exactly the most realistic expectation I've 
ever heard.

But is it *out of the ordinary*?

Look back on some of the other newly awakened in and around just the TM 
movement, and what they seemed to expect. Robin Carlsson. Andy Rhymer. Good 
track record for the enlightened deserving stuff there, right? Think back on 
some who have graced FFL in the past, claiming enlightenment. Many of them 
seemed to have expectations as to how they should be received, as well, and 
beat feet when they found those expectations not met.

I think that the problem is far more basic than many are touching on in their 
comments on the Ravi Thang. I don't think that the problem centers on the 
fairly obvious fact that some *individuals* who claim enlightenment don't 
deserve to be respected as gurus. I think that the problem lies in the belief 
that ANYONE, ANYWHERE, ANYTIME deserves to be respected as a guru, merely on 
the basis of what they say about their supposed awakening or state of 
consciousness. 

Their subjective experience holds no value for me. Or for the world, until they 
demonstrate otherwise with their actions. Whoever they are, whatever tradition 
they come from, whatever they or others say about their supposed subjective 
achievements, they don't get my respect or my notice as someone out of the 
ordinary until their everyday actions fall into the realm of the extraordinary.

Am I alone here in feeling this way?

 But making the issue negotiable might be a necessity for any
legislation to pass through the Senate. Democratic Sen. Kent Conrad of
North Dakota, one of six Senate Finance Committee members who have
been trying to hammer out the first bipartisan compromise bill, said
Sunday a public option simply won't make it through Congress.

The fact of the matter is there are not the votes in the United
States Senate for a public option. There never have been, Conrad told
FOX News Sunday. Video Watch bloggers give their opinions of the
focus on the public option 

Instead of a public option, the negotiators are considering a plan
proposed by Conrad to create nonprofit health insurance cooperatives
that could negotiate coverage as a collective for their members.

Such cooperatives, which have already been established in cities such
as Minneapolis, Minnesota, and Seattle, Washington, are designed to
provide better coverage at a lower cost for their members in part by
funneling profits back into the system.

They are also designed to help alter the larger health care landscape
by forcing private competitors to lower their prices. Liberal critics
note, however, that membership in a cooperative is not free of cost.
Cooperatives can -- and often do -- reject prospective members, and
are therefore less likely than other public alternatives to help reach
the goal of universal health coverage.

Ignorance is thinking you know everything. Wisdom is knowing you
don't... but I may be wrong.

Associated Press Monday, April 06, 2009 | 6:10 PM

HOUSTON -- A man accused of viciously beating his 3-year-old son claims he 
wasn't hitting the boy but trying to drive a demon out of the child's body, 
authorities said Monday.
Relatives say Jacky Tran, who is being held in the Harris County Jail on a 
$100,000 bond after being charged with felony injury to a child,
He told me that he thinks he's an angel right now, Tran's cousin-in-law Thuba 
To said Monday, the day after speaking with him in jail. He told me the whole 
family are angels. The boy is an angel but evil took his body and that's the 
reason why he tried to take the evil out of his body. That's what he thought.

To said she and other family members are shocked the 35-year-old devout 
Buddhist could have done this and believe he has serious mental problems. 
Jacky Tran made a brief court appearance Monday. His attorney, Jerome Godinich, 
did not immediately return a telephone call from The Associated Press. 
The boy's mother, Phung Tran, 36, has been charged with felony injury to a 
child and is in the county jail on a $30,000 bond. She was set to appear in 
court Tuesday. Court records did not list an attorney for her. 
Lt. John Legg, a spokesman for the Harris County Sheriff's Department, said a 
deputy was called to the Tran home Saturday evening in response to an alarm. 
The deputy found all the home's windows were open and music was blaring from 
inside. A man, later identified as Tran, was seen by the deputy in a 
second-floor bedroom. 
He observed (Tran) yelling and striking downward at something, Legg said. 
There was a break in the music and the deputy then heard a child screaming. 
Before the deputy and other officers could force their way into the home, Tran 
came downstairs and was arrested. Inside, deputies found Phung Tran tending to 
the boy, whose face and head had been seriously pummeled, Legg said. 
The boy's head was swollen to the point where his eyes could barely open, said 
Donna Hawkins, a spokeswoman for the Harris County District Attorney's Office. 
Tran was saying, 'I wasn't beating my son. I was beating the demon out of 
him.' He was apparently repeating that, Legg said. 
The boy, who was still hospitalized Monday, was expected to survive, officials 
said. 
Legg said Jacky Tran had apparently been experiencing a change in mood and 
behavior over the past week. Deputies found furniture from inside the home 
piled in the front and back yards. 
To said she had not spoken with Jacky Tran in about a week but he had never 
acted strangely before. 
He's a very nice person, very responsible with his family, she said. 
Child Protective Services was given custody by a judge on Monday of the boy and 
his 6-year-old sister, who was in the home on Saturday but wasn't injured, said 
CPS spokeswoman Gwen Carter.

Re: [FairfieldLife] So what would an Age Of Enlightenment be like?

2008-08-17 Thread gullible fool






 
When I began getting into more OTP stuff back in 1998 (the first times were in 
1983, with a one-night try at channelling while on a year of CCP in ff, and the 
second with learning reiki right after I got home from CCP), it was with a 
couple of teachers who were 'new age' types, the kind who talked about the 
'ascension' of the planet. Their belief is the Earth is connected to the 
planetary goddess Gaia and the ascension is Gaia's. If Gaia's occupants want 
to join in on the ascension, they have to evolve. Otherwise, they won't live 
through it. Either way, Gaia will ascend, with its myriad occupants having no 
more ability to slow down the ascension than the microbes on Phelps' skin have 
in slowing down his swimming. The gist of this is what these teachers were 
saying was that this planet would become an astral world and eventually a 
causal world. 
 
There, that's one interpretation of what the age of enlightenment would be 
like. I don't see how MMY's promise of perfect health for everyone could happen 
with everyone still having human bodies. Which means MMY may have left out a 
very important fact about what the new age would really involve...if he knew, 
that is. Either way, in this version of the future, most of the current 
problems are better just because the earth and its inhabitants are at a higher 
vibration, and this will happen with or without the domes and the 
pundits. Perhaps the idea behind the domes and the pundits was to try to make 
for a smoother transition, but it would not bring about the ascension itself.

Yes'd I was aware of this. My Sanskrit professor actually taught us

I'd be surprised if he hadn't. He at least would have heard of it from  
his pundits like Ravi. And since the popular text describing the  
attribution was popular in the 60's (The Serpent Power), there was  
easy access there.


Interestingly, neuroscientists are now realizing that the acquisition  
of samadhi in growing meditation expertise parallels the way the brain  
integrates the learning of language acquisition (the so-called U- 
shaped curve). Amazing how this same process was known long, long ago  
as many of the inner tantras (Hindu, Buddhist or Jain) have some  
attribution of the letter sounds to the increasing integration of  
awareness. Guru Dev's lineage believed each line holder had to master  
all the experiences of all the petals before they would be capable of  
holding the tradition (in their consciousness) and thus passing it  
on in full. M's one guru even spoke of it in his translation of the  
Shiva sutra.


By establishing and meditating on the wheel of energies the  
differentiated universe comes to an end.


Such a heroic yogi experiences the expansive state of turiya in the  
differentiated states of waking, dreaming and deep sleep.

I am getting lost in the grievances thread and thought I would start

about the rewards of TM when we were talking about whether a technique

 In my view, the basis for plausibility is how easy
 it is to meditate effortlessly, and how easy it is
 as well to get off the effortless track. Seems to me
 something so easy and rewarding would have likely
 spread like wildfire once it was discovered, just as
 TM did in its early days; but almost as quickly, the
 knack of effortlessness could have been forgotten
 in a few generations.

How rewarding is TM for most people? We don't know, but we can
speculate. My speculation is that a large number of people learned to
meditate and most quit. Meditation was not rewarding enough to  
continue.


I really would love to know how many people were taught TM and what
was the dropout rate over time. Although this has no validity for
statistical purposes, a number of my friends and family learned TM
about the same time. None of the 2 times 20 people now meditate.
Five went on to take the Siddhis. One became a TB and still is one.
Another does her program irregularly.

Could it be that the simple TM technique just doesn't work for a lot
of people?



It would depend how you define work. Many quit becasue of side  
effects from TM:


Not all effects of the practice of meditation are beneficial. Shapiro  
(1992) found that 62.9% of the subjects reported adverse effects  
during and after transcendental meditation and 7.4% experienced  
profoundly adverse effects. The length of practice (from 16 to 105  
months) did not make any difference to the quality and frequency of  
adverse effects. These adverse effects were relaxation-induced anxiety  
and panic; paradoxical increases in tension; less motivation in life;  
boredom; pain; impaired reality testing; confusion and disorientation;  
feeling 'spaced out'; depression; increased negativity; being more  
judgmental; and, ironically, feeling addicted to meditation.  (Perez- 
De-Abeniz, Alberto and Holmes, Jeremy. Meditation: Concepts, Effects  
and Uses in Therapy. International Journal of Psychotherapy, March  
2000, Vol. 5 Issue 1, p49, 10p. )


Other adverse effects described (Craven, 1989) are uncomfortable  
kinesthetic sensations, mild dissociation, feelings of guilt and, via  
anxiety-provoking phenomena, psychosis-like symptoms, grandiosity,  
elation, destructive behaviour and suicidal feelings. Kutz et al.  
(1985a,b) described feelings of defenselessness, which in turn produce  
unpleasant affective experiences, such as fear, anger, apprehension  
and despair.

Re: [FairfieldLife] So Is Maharishi Lucifer?

2005-08-15 Thread Llundrub






Nevermind. I guess I'm just 
stupid.

OK, here it is. I grew up 
around Christians as I guess we all did. And they have this book see 
called revelations. Which is pretty interesting soo I read it like a hundred 
times or more. 

Only it accumulated in my brain like 
pollution. Like bird crap that had accumulated, or whatever. 

But I didn't really realize that I 
had been programmed or programming myself to understand things like a Christian, 
yes, in spite of myself. 

Even though nobody in my entire life 
ever requested that I join the Christian fraternity. Even now those streetcorner 
preachers look the other way when I walk by so it just seems like they know me. 


I had been a Satanist for a short 
time as a kid but I realized that I did believe in God so that didn't work out 
for me. I also realized that being Satanist was just being Christian, but 
wearing black and acting weird. Truely evil people could hardly care what Satan 
thought.

But then today I realized that 
because of my trying to reach an ultimate through drug use was like trying to 
reach the same ultimate with the Revelations prophecies. Ie., I guess that 
religion is in many ways like drugs. The proverb that religion is the opiate of 
the masses is maybe not so much untrue or even a proverb but an actual 
truth.

Noone questions any longer that the 
brain makes DMT, a natural visionary substance, or that it makes dopamine which 
feels better than heroin. Or serotonin which is what speeds us up. 
Norephinephrine, our natural vasoconstrictor for fighting toxins. 
Etc...

So it's not far fetched for an 
ex-druggy to make a connection between religion and the seeking of ultimates and 
his own personal mythology. And frankly I had to clear out my mind a 
bit,

so these maudlin and frustrated 
prophecies of doom and gloom are the result.

I had said to my wife, well I don't 
have to be Catholic to read your road map do I? I mean, we're all English 
speaking here and so we know what Christians think right? Especially since 
Christians are mandated to go out and tell everyone else about it. 


(Like the guy on the island with 
Cindy Crawford). I guess making up your mind finally feel good. "I'm a 
Christian, and I refuse to burn in hell!" I mean, it has a hard allure, like a 
sexy prostitute under a street lamp, which looks more like a man as you get 
closer (Women, if you're reading, subsitute Bulldyke or something.)

I mean, we're all English speaking 
here and so we know what Christians think right? Especially since Christians are 
mandated to go out and tell everyone else about it. 

Basically we're all going to hell in 
a burning lake of eternal damnation. 

That's not what my wife thinks. 
Obviously or how could we be married. I'm Buddhist. I just am a new 
Buddhist so I have been doing some mental vacuuming lately. 

The TM religion didn't work for me 
since I don't see any compassion in the Maharishi and I still needed to vacuum 
that a bit there too. A few crumbs behind that sofa there, 
gotcha...

I mean, I'm obviously stupid or I 
wouldn't have 110,000 dollars of student loans that I don't intend to 
repay...

...and being bound like that because 
of my ignorance choices from when I was a kid feels sort of satanic. I mean, I 
don't expect recompence from anyone. Who would ever just flat out help me? 
Hahahahhahaha. I laugh even thinking about it.

In this world to date only my wife 
has been really behind me. Who the fuck knows why. I really don't deserve 
her. (God bless our wives - she even would have married me even without 
legal separation of property). 

...To be 
continued
