I would say that "God" is a motionless silent field like the "Absolute"
and the perception of "God" would not burn your eyes out. Being close
to someone rooted in that should give a person a sense of calm.

Maharishi wasn't God.Maybe, probably, enlightened. You could have
handled his darshan, no problem. I sat on many courses with him, some
times daily or nightly, frequently within a few feet of him. If he was
enlightened, which I like to,think he was, his darshan was tempered by
his leshavidya. I kind of think of looking at God would be like
looking directly into the sun, it'll burn your eyes. Looking at an
enlightened master would be more like looking into the full moon.A
reflection of the sun but cooled down.

I do not have that supreme human good fortune but maybe for me I am
better off for it; as when the Thunderbird Miigis came to teach no one
could survive his intense spiritual radiance in human form and he had
to leave. Likewise according to Judaism we cannot survive in the full
presence of the Elohim,the energy has to be stepped down a lot for us.
There is many still alive who had a daily experience of Maharishi and
they may be regarded as the Most Revered of Living, even if their
minds are temporarily clouded.
