Speaking up for Lawson, I for one am majorly impressed at the restraint he's been showing in the number of posts he's been making. I appreciate that, especially knowing that his ADHD makes it difficult. Well done. That said, often the content of the posts is often the same as it was before. :-) I think that Lawson's baseline assumption above reinforces the post I made earlier today about the "Trotaka Syndrome." Lawson assumes that Chopra's "place" WAS to "sit at the feet of the guru" and take no credit for accomplishments that were clearly his and not Maharishi's. What he can't forgive is that Chopra didn't live down to his fantasy of what a student of a spiritual teacher is "supposed" to be like.
