He still does TM, is a bit sad about the behavior of the TMO and was surprised at the pundit riot -he teaches English at some Catholic College in Kentucky.
He's got some good stories about seeing people freak out (as in major unstressing) He knew and worked with Brain Henchcliff who committed suicide not long after leaving MIU staff. He also has as I put in his account long been a fan of Charlie and has told me some stuff Charlie said at lectures that make me see why Marshy never let Charlie in the front door much. He also reports that Charlie was vocal in his unhappiness over Marshy introducing the TM Siddhi program - said so at his talks on more than one occasion. ________________________________ From: "Pundit Sir pundits...@gmail.com [FairfieldLife]" <FairfieldLife@yahoogroups.com> To: Richard J.

There was one other guy there too, but I can't remember who it was. They sit me down and started in on the interrogation. They asked me all kinds of questions about my going to see Robin, but the main thing they kept asking me over and over was "Do you believe in him?" > > >So I told 'em what I knew they wanted to hear, like I thought he was flakey and I just went that one time out of curiosity and stuff like that. I guess I satisfied them, cause they didn't kick me out, but they sure did give me some lectures about how I needed to be careful about what I did as a staff or student and I needed to be careful about my behavior and my thinking. > > >And that was the end of it, except that after that every time I saw James around campus he would give me these looks, you know, like "I'm watching you boy!" kind of looks. > > >And I swear, you know I am a big and was a big Charlie Lutes fan so whenever Charlie would come anywhere close to Fairfield, I would always go see him. But after that "meeting" with Bill Rist and Mario and James, ever after that when I would come back on campus after seeing Charlie, there would come James. > > > >It didn't matter if I was headed to my room or the dining hall or student union, or wherever I would be, just a few minutes after getting back on campus, James would come walking by. He would just say hello, but I knew he was letting me know he knew I had gone to see Charlie. > > >The other thing that happened was from then on any time I applied for a course of any kind, WPA or whatever my application was always held up and I had to answer questions about going to see Robin Carlsen that one time. And that went on while I was staff and student and for years after, even when I would apply to go to a WPA in Louisville or someplace, they have always asked me about going to see Robin. > >
