This means, of course, that Bevan and Nader Ram are now saying that Maharishi is more illustrious than Guru Dev. > There has never been a Saint of Maharishi's caliber in any > time, in any place. Again, this includes Guru Dev, and Shankara, and *every single one* of the teachers referenced in the Holy Tradition. Maharishi beats 'em all. > Also when Nadar Ram said that all of the dwellers in Heaven > were welcoming Maharishi with open arms that it was not just > some phrase to uplift our hearts. It is the reality. And it's "reality" because Bevan says so. The fact that King Tony said it is still open to dispute, but now The Bevan has said it, so it's "the reality." Scary fuckin' stuff, man. > Bevan said that this kind of thing is "beyond our ken," But obviously not beyond his. That must be what enables him to make pronouncements about "the reality." > ...but for some reason Maharishi was > not absorbed into the Absolute.

Single-handedly. Again, doesn't this kinda imply that he didn't need Guru Dev's help, or the help of any of the tradition of masters he's now better than? Don't these people realize what they are SAYING? To quote John Cleese in A Fish Called Wanda, "Are you DERANGED?"
