And therein lies the problem. That is *exactly* what they have invested in.

I think what you'd find if you looked into it is that the higher the altar they've put Maharishi on, the less time they've actually spent in his presence. Judy has never even been in the same room with the man, after 30+ years of devoted TM practice. I don't know about lupidus, but I'd be willing to bet that he never spent much actual time around the man either. If they had, they'd realize that's exactly what he is, a man. And that no man is ever going to enlighten them. Can't be done. One can only realize one's own enlightenment, oneself. Those who wait for someone else to do it for them will be waiting forever. And they'll be angry just about as long, because it's taking so long to happen. And they'll blame anyone who criticizes Scotty/MMY, because they have to find some reason WHY it's taking so long. It just *can't* be because they've misplaced their faith, and looked in the wrong place for their own enlightenment. It just *has* to be because some people are hindering them somehow by not believing in Scotty/MMY the way they do. "These people must be *stopped*. They're BAD. Their disbelief and disrespect is keeping Scotty/MMY from beaming me up. Gotta demonize them. Gotta keep other people from believing the things they say. Just gotta." Go beam yourselves, assholes. ------------------------ Yahoo! Groups Sponsor --------------------~--> Get fast access to your favorite Yahoo! Groups.
