I have received an email relating to a press conference in which MMY allegedly "made himself look and sound like an Ill tempered raving lunatic." Does anyone know of such a conference and do they have a transcript?
Follows an extract of the email received:- 'It might interest you to know that during the summer of 2004 I was watching a free live transmission of a Maharishi Press conference from Holland to India. I had been watching these free for a limited time Maharishi press conferences for about the whole summer. In each session, John Hagelin of MUM was fielding questions from the press for Maharishi. Maharishi would then give a thorough answer and/or message that was very pleasing to hear. However, one day as I was watching a special broadcast of the Maharishi speaking to India, he absolutely lost it (so to speak) and began what amounted to be a complete 30-45 minute tyrannical speech about how India is still being kept down by its Britisher foreigners and their "religion of suffering"-Christianity. I was stunned when he started advocating that Indians begin to angrily and forcibly directly threaten "Britishers" and "Christians" (namely women) by explaining that if they didn't leave India immediately their, "Husbands and children's lives would be in great danger". And that was only one small quote. I watched in disbelief as he threw all caution to the wind and started chastising the Indian Press and basically all of India for "copying the West" and becoming less "Spiritual". He was out of control to tell you the truth. I am not exaggerating at all either. He made himself look and sound like an Ill tempered raving lunatic. Literally trying to incite violence? I was stunned at how much disrespect and open contempt he was displaying towards "Britishers" and westerners in general. It was unthinkable, the things that he was saying. He was openly instructing others to "throw the bloody Britishers out or they will pay a heavy price for staying", mainly he explained because of British involvement in the War in Iraq and the fact that these democratically run foreign countries were dragging the spirituality of India and her people down. Also he kept on repeating "get away from democracy" "get away from democracy".' ------------------------ Yahoo! Groups Sponsor --------------------~--> Dying to be thin? Anorexia.
