..we will be able to keep the Vedic qualities alive in our community with a smaller, more permanent group of Vedic Pandits who consider Maharishi Vedic City their home. The Pandit numbers will continue to decrease over the next year until we reach a size that we are able to practically sustain.

Does anyone know if the pandits can go to downtown Fairfield to watch a movie and have dinner on weekends? Can they associate with MUM students? srijau: they can audit courses at MUM now, but nothing that would qualify them to do anything other than their traditional occupation.
