Nice find. Maharishi was less than pleased with Tony Blair, and when he got re-elected Maharishi had enough.
"'I cannot support long life and healthy life and more creativity for a country that is constantly destroying the world. You cannot afford to feed the scorpion, because a more healthy scorpion will have a stronger sting. Transcendental Meditation is a gift of nectar from me to those who want to create peace and harmony in the world.' " Maharishi had said: 'I am withdrawing my activity from Britain because the island has been so bold in continuously destroying the world and creating divisions and dissensions in every nation, working on the principle of 'divide and rule'. When I heard that again the same destroyer of the world had been re-elected by the people of England, I decided that I am not going to feed Britain with the positive values that are produced through Transcendental Meditation.'
