Sounds like His Highness Tony would be quite at home in an American Pentecostal church - 'cause they claim pretty much the same thing, saying "it's not a religion it's a relationship" or somesuch bunk. It's really easy to engage in misdirection like this if you're not afraid to defy both common sense and ethical behavior by completely redefining your terms into meaningless mush as you go along. It appears that King Tony's latest spiel is in the Maharishi Channel archive, look under "Global Family Chats" for April 8, 10 and 11 - though I haven't yet downloaded and viewed these files to check for sure. Be careful not to trip over that completely irreligious "Full Moon Celebration!"
