There are no indications of a move from/to anywhere or anyone - it's just a "hunch", though RA would love to call it a rumour. :-) b) some will stay out of lack of flexibility. > > So, what would you advocate to save or improve the situation for your > campus community and the domes now? The meditating "Maharishi > Effect" dome numbers? Do the programme in the Domes. If you are for some reason not allowed to do so don't worry about it. Do your programme at home at the same times as they do in the Domes. Look upon the situation as a test. > That the old-TM meditators and sidhas again just come together with > their `faith and belief' in Maharishi? The programme is for our own benefit. Maharishi does not need our coherence, we do. We do it for what it gives us, or if you are inclined in that direction; for the benefit of world. "Faith and belief" is not relevant, your relationship with Maharishi, or lack thereof, is not relevant. > That the meditating community should forgive the differences and > forgive the past as things that keep people from the domes. Thats a very good idea.

They are in those positions for entirely different reasons. Is much more the language of hubris, > exclusion, abuse of power and extreme spiritual arrogance; I do not agree. They have taken a stand and stick to it. Laudable in many ways. That said I must admit that I find the movement people in the USA, particularily at MUM, more rigid than in other countries. I found them irritating too. But I could leave, you have to put up with that all the time and I have no problem seeing that it must be rather frustrating. that they > live in a Maharishi bubble.

Personally I do not think Maharishi would interfere with a drama created by others. That is if your story is correct and this drama has any real proportions. I doubt it, but ofcourse you could be right. Everyone must take responsebility for their own siruation, grow up so to speak.`And worry less about what others think or say. What matters at the end of the day is how much tapas we did and the effect of that process. Time is too precious to allow the policies of others to interfere with that. > Could you advocate or even broach this to your people on campus. No. This your drama.
