I think there is a way to reconcile the bizarre behavior of MMY and his followers (it takes two!) When I think of Chopra's report of his departure, and Geezer's report, and the reports of so many personal friends, one thread goes through them all. Each person was asked to go beyond what they judged to be appropriate for themselves. That means that they had developed their own judgment independent of MMY's (or TMO's). The departures happened in such a way that the break was undeniable, inarguable, and irreversible. The step for each person was huge and unforgettable. It might feel unlike any other break in a person's life except perhaps death of loved ones. Creating that kind of experience for a student is quite an accomplishment for a sage, no?
