Kirk, did you notice that Chopra, as a mouthpiece for MMY's teaching, got it wrong a lot? I used to listen to him at various TMO events and realize that he didn't have a clear understanding of what Maharishi was talking about. I think this is because he didn't spend all that time watching tapes on TTC, ATR's, etc. He wasn't "steeped in the knowledge". Several tapes I saw with him and MMY, Maharishi would correct him when he was talking from time to time. > > > > To subscribe, send a message to: > [EMAIL PROTECTED] > > Or go to: > http://groups.yahoo.com/group/FairfieldLife/ > and click 'Join This Group!' > Yahoo!
