Or delusional. I completely agree. I have seen nothing in RWC's performance here that rules out "delusional," either then, or now. It is worth noting that most of the people discussing these supposed higher states of consciousness that some on this forum claim to have had are doing so completely from a theoretical basis. They have personally never had such experiences, and are basing anything they say on theories given to them by Maharishi, who IMO was in exactly the same boat they were. That is, only having heard about enlightenment, and never having experienced it. Even the early stages of it.
