I am also joining with you in this message to convey my gladness and
appreciation in starting the "alt.hindu" group. I will also post some good
articles if I come across one. I am thinking of putting a request to post
Gita chapters at the rate of 1 per week so that we all will keep abreast of our 
religion's holy book.

Thanking you

That's because they're not really made from chicken, but from the meat of

Here's another little ditty, very reminsant of the 80's:

Michael Jackson is a fag,
Pepsi Cola burnt him up,
now he's drinking 7-up,
7-up burnt his teeth,

I've been reading the discussion about linking the human brain directly
with a database containing the sum of human knowledge.  This is an idea that
is gaining in popularity among computer buffs, if what I read in Mondo 2000
from time to time is any indication.  But so far, no one on this discussion
groups has questioned whether our brains have certain biological limits.
Are our brains designed (by nature, not some omnipotent being!) to handle 
enormous quantities of factual information of the sort we fill encyclopedias
with?  Can our organic "neural network" be overloaded?  What would happen if 
it were?  If we were to make such a radical change in the way one part of
our bodies functioned, how would the rest of our bodies compensate for this 
change?  Finally - a question that might sound really stupid on the surface, but
with CD-ROMS aleady able to store whole libraries for us at their early
stage of development, why would a direct connection to a database through our
brains really be an improvement in the quality of our lives?

I hope these questions haven't been answered already.

I'd be interested in getting some references for this; it sounds like

This is in response to a post from drake@seismo.soar.cs.cmu.edu

I'm at my parent's house for the holidays, and I can't edit messages I try
to reply to without making a mess - I'm not very familiar with the term 
program I'm using here.  Anyway, you were looking for references on       
correct action.  

For starters, you might want to try Feldenkrais' "Awareness through Movement".
This has 12 excercises which I have found to bring about significant         
improvements - if you're willing to work with them every day.  What's really
neat about these excercises is that they're not "static" like a yoga excercise
might be.  What you learn from them you can apply to your daily life.

Another good book by Feldenkrais is called "The Potent Self", which is a 
very good description of the psychological theory behind Feldenkrais work, put
in layman's language.  

Finally, I've read a book called "The Alexander Technique" and I've already
forgotten the author's name.  

Hope this helps.

That may be true of individuals, but as a species is it not unreasonable that
as soon as the intelligence is possessed to modify the environment (instead of
modifying itself) and the capacity to maintain those gene pools which
would have been eleminated by selection processes that the "mean value"
of the species, in terms of adaption to the environment, would go down
and the "Average intelligence" would remain relatively constant?


Or is such a concept not PC?

I'm pleased to find that someone is brave enough to make the assertion
that "Mind is not simply a working of the brain."  Let the functionalists
have 'consciousness' and we can continue with the discussion of mind.

Just a thought...

If "mind" were to have a real impact on reality, it would follow
that the type of impact would be influenced by the beliefs held
by the mind in question. Were this to be true, then what would
be the result of putting someone with PSI talents into a carefully
controlled environment, amidst a group of skeptics? 

Seems to me that the beliefs of the skeptics might well cancel
out the abilities of the "talent." Further, it is not unlikely that
the confidence of the talent would be negatively affected by
his/her surroundings, which could well have an impact on the
performance of that individual.

If what I postulated above is correct, we have a situation similar
to high energy physics, where the experimenter can not be isolated
from the experiment. The end result of this is that the line between
objectivity and subjectivity could be so blurred, that it will
become necessary to radically rethink how we approach such matters.

YES!! This is something I have been thinking about recently....maybe humans will evolve
to a point where our minds will be capable of breaking physical boundries, such as
moving objects, or even utilizing our latent psychic abilities such as predicting events or reading minds etc.  It is possible that we are capable of doing some of these things
now, but "the scientific community" seems to invalidate much of whatever evidence there
is, by saying that it is not "repeatable under scientific controlled conditions",
or measurable in scientific ways etc.  Well, you dont use a clock to measure liquid....
so maybe there are other ways of measuring "psi" abilities, other than standard 
"scientific" ones....just a thought....I love when the impossible is accomplished.  The
more we know the more there is to learn...
