He was the only living guy. That was the difference. We have about one million hours of Maharishi claiming to be representing this tradition in all its fullness. I have never heard him ever utter the slightest hint that he believed your interpretation. He thought of himself as the most important person of history. Guru Dev's greatest accomplishment (according to Maharishi himself) was to have made Maharishi. Maharishi loved Maharishi more than any of his sycophants could have. --- In FairfieldLife@yahoogroups.com, "sparaig" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > > --- In FairfieldLife@yahoogroups.com, nablusoss1008 <no_reply@> wrote: > > > > --- In FairfieldLife@yahoogroups.com, enlightened_dawn11 <no_reply@> > > wrote: > > > > > > --- In FairfieldLife@yahoogroups.com, nablusoss1008 <no_reply@> > > > wrote: > > > -snip- > > > > "Heaven will walk on earth in this generation." > > > > - Maharishi > > > > > > > I wonder if he spoke this while sitting down? ha-ha > > > > Probably.
