My experience of Maharishi, from day one, was that he was Infinite. I had many profound experiences triggered by Maharishi's presence and following his techniques. Everything else about Maharishi, in the context of how I experienced him, takes a big backseat. Sure, from the level of mind which is always embedded in a specific context, Maharishi's behavior could baffle me from time to time. I had very good karma with Maharishi, other's didn't and other's had something in between. But one thing I will not do is judge Maharishi's behavior from the level of my personality. What an incredibly stupid thing to do when you experience this man as Infinite. Like a man dying of thirst in the desert, is given a canteen of water, slakes his thirst and then complains about the color of the canteen!
