Maharishi warned long ago that rising enlightenment values would easily create "fear and havoc" on this ignorant planet if the pace of enlighten-izing were not gradual, and that's what's happening. Although there is some understanding of the "fear and havoc" thing in TM mgmt -- see Bevan's comments http://pages.citebite.com/l8d8o7m5nhrb , the TMO obviously can't mention this, for risk of sounding like a doomsday cult, but the transition to the Sat Yuga always involves shaking out the entropy (which means the earth sheds those producing that entropy). As long as the numbers were low, the contrast between the influence of bliss and the dense ignorance/unhappiness didn't matter, but when the numbers went up (most especially the presence of so many Rudrabhiskek pundits) , that light shook up the benighted. http://geocities.com/bbrigante/updates2008.html#fit
