When Maharishi in 1991 wanted us to go to Crimea and teach, one anxious soul 
asked Him: "What will it be like" (none of us had ever been across the 
iron-curtain before.)  He said: "More silence". And boy was he right; a 
population steeped in silence and longing for more. I've taught TM more or less 
all over the planet but never had 250 people come to a intro-lecture in a small 
town where we could not put an ad in the paper or even print a poster; (it's a 
long story but true) they all turned up from word of mouth. I ended up staying 
in Ukraine for a year. All my funny, touching, magical and heart-swelling 
happenings in that truly remarkable country could and should, destiny-willing, 
fill a book.
