May I ask, what Maharishi, ever did to yourself, Vaj...
That you would puch peoples buttons, to call Maharishi a scoundrel...
This not only makes you look foolish, but also, identifies you with being a
scoundrel...
Now, as far as Deepak being a scoudrel, I would agree with that...
As far as Depaak loving power and the power of money, I would agree with that...
I don't believe that Maharishi can be put in any catagory, that would have
anything to do with being a scoudrel...
That is just over the line, and is a pure lie.
