Ha ha, Rajni, very good choice!
But the Blues arose/arises through suffering, it’s basically the music of slaves, isn’t it? Actual physical slaves in the US of A, and later, now, despite the undoubted artistry, […]

Yes, Roman, it’s raw and honest all right. Rings true, for sure – a sort of death faced by many of us.
But aren’t this and Osho’s two different sorts of “abyss”?
If “happy thoughts don’t make…masters”, then […]

Meditation is ultimately supposed to dissolve our habitual dependence on our thinking minds, isn’t it? So in that respect, meditation and positive thinking are going in opposite directions.

It’s not so much “becoming” anything, Preetam, more a letting-go of all that negative stuff.
That, plus meditation, or rather, a meditative life. For what is a meditative life if it doesn’t imply renouncing […]

Is it really so hard to perceive negativity? How about anger, jealousy, fear, self-contempt, for example?
What chance of finding “highest Truth” if these still prevail in the self?

Maharishi’s TM was my introduction to ‘meditation’ and I enjoyed it, even had one or two memorably ‘expanded consciousness-type’ experiences during the first 10 months or so of practice, in particular while […]

But Roman, why highlight the suffering in Gaza, rather than in any of the other benighted places in the world? Is it due to some anti-American, anti-capitalist agenda?
And if you’re so concerned, why don’t you […]

From what I’ve understood (not from personal experience though, I’m a long-term wader-in-the-shallows) that’s surely the experience of most, Vartan, agreed. Although having a certain ‘realisation’ wouldn’t […]

But Shantam, it is indeed an absurdity for the ‘you’ that thinks it ‘needs enlightenment’ is the very entity that is to disappear in such a phenomenon.
This sort of confusion reminds me of hearing claims like ‘I […]

Re metal pollution (and other potentially catastrophic results of attempts to manipulate the weather) I recommend watching ‘What in the world are they spraying?’ (at youtube.com), which presents a chilling picture […]

There’s certainly a ‘history’, but whether any of it is practically relevant to most people in this day and age is open to question, isn’t it?
Nice stuff to read and speculate about though, inspiring even.

Amazing video, but somehow chilling as well, as we attempt to imitate life forms, but leave out the Life that sustains the ‘original model’.
I fear for the coming generations if they’re going to have to put up […] -

Are you really that identified with your particular collective’s madness, babasv? You sound like any old ‘good ol’ boy’ redneck….

Bilderberger – would that be a subsidiary of Burger King, perhaps, Preetam? Sounds pretty serious if that lot are involved….

I do see your point, Chetna, yet you might be over-reacting a bit here. The recent debate, centering around who or what was responsible for Osho’s seemingly premature death isn’t necessarily a minor issue that […]

Perhaps so, Alok – but I guess it’s also arguable that it might not be ideal for a middle-aged diabetic also not in the best of health in other respects (Osho), to consume nitrous oxide over lengthy periods of […]
