And here's another thing: If Barry the Bullshit Artist is in fact telling the truth and did personally teach "hundreds" of residence courses in the space of only "several years" as he said, then that would mean he was a HOG. TM teachers that "hogged" the teaching experience didn't last long in the Movement. They were and are considered "selfish" because even in the "make hay while the sun shines" Merv Griffin days when nitiations galore were taking place, there were ALWAYS a greater supply of teachers than there were teaching opportunities, be those opportunities initiations, advanced lectures, intro lectures, or residence courses. And this was even more true for the California area where Barry was ensconsed during this period. And next to initiations, residence courses were considered the PLUMS, a most desired fruit. So the story is of course a complete fabrication; if he even taught, say, a very small number of residence courses -- at least relative to the "hundreds" he claims -- say, 20 in a row, he would have been shunned out of the Movement for his hogging and selfishness (hey, maybe that IS the reason why Barry "left" the movement; he was kicked out for being a hog with the plum teaching assignments!). He would have been protested about to International and, with all certainty, told to decease and desist and, in effect, share the wealth (spiritual wealth, not monetary). Barry, as usual, you do NOT pass the smell test. > > > > > > You, perhaps, set up "hundreds" and taught, perhaps, "dozens" > > yourself, not "thousands" and "hundreds." > > > > You wrote that you "ran residence courses for the movement for > > several years in the Western office.
