He never gave a guru mantra--or any of the samayas (vows) which typically go with guru-diksha. It's interesting, I was at a Buddhist teaching retreat with an old yogin who had just come out of the cave monasteries in India. At the retreat was an old Buddhist practitioner who was Mike Love's personal roadie. He had accompanied Mike to India with Maharishi. From a Buddhist it was interesting to hear his reaction to this Hindu "holy man". Let's just say, he acknowledged the guy had siddhis and was very psychic but one thing was clear: he was not very "holy". It was an eye-opener for me and just part of a long process of learning the truth.
