Sorry dude, this distraction thing doesn't work for many of us any more.
Maharishi has been dead a looooong time now. You apparently have only witnessed for about two weeks, out of your whole life. I, and countless others, do it 24x7, and have now, for years and years - it is an established way of functioning. We don't endlessly bitch and whine about this teacher, or that, because we are enjoying a full spiritual life. You, on the other hand, with your Two Weeks Of Witnessing Lifetime Achievement Award, wring your hands and raise the alarm continuously, about a teacher who passed away many years ago, to distract yourself from your weak and shallow spiritual life. TWO weeks witnessing, total, total? I wouldn't even admit that, if I were you. ---In FairfieldLife@yahoogroups.com, <turquoiseb@...> wrote : From: "TurquoiseBee turquoiseb@...

Allegedly someone fully in Unity could perform any and all TM-SIdhis at any time, in any circumstance. And you believe this why? But of course, MMY never demonstrated floating in public that I have heard of and never said that he had floated, only that he could if he wanted to. Oh, my bad. You believe it because some guy who could never demonstrate it said it. :-) Just as an additional point, haven't you seen the reports that many of these statements about immortality were spoken by a guy on videotapes that were filmed in the last few years of his life as he was lying prone on his bed, using a special (and rather deceptive) apparatus that made it appear as if he was sitting up. If you actually believe what he was purported to say about his ability to levitate, why couldn't he have just levitated over to the lecture hall and given these talks in person, and while actually sitting up? For that matter, if you believe that he was actually able to levitate and that there is some relationship between this and immortality, why did he die? We'll wait...
