Steve, with all the "TM cheerleading" going down, I just thought it would be useful for someone to interject a little reality about the person so many are trying to portray as so saintly and enlightened. People KNOW how he spent his last days (as I describe above), but they tend to put it out of signt and out of mind so that they can pedestalize Maharishi with an unrealistically positive set of memories about him. I'm just trying to remind people that for every blissy, positive recollection they may have about MMY or the glory days of the TMO, there are other recollections that present different sides of the equation. I think that all sides should be considered and borne in mind, not just the ones the TBs *want* to remember.
