I remember back in the day, during the Merv wave, a lot of initiations were taking place. One Saturday evening, after the last person was initiated and left to meditate, those who were involved...teachers, helpers, etc., decided to go out to dinner. Unfortunately they forgot about the last initiate. A few hours later when we returned to the center we noticed a pair of shoes outside the door of the initiation room. When we opened the door the initiate was still meditating. The only thing we would say was "Was it easy."?
