That's the gist of it. I even heard of an incident in which a TB spat upon him in an airport. I knew Deepak quite well, as I taught his intro TM course, along with Ted Weisman, who initiated him. We visited him at his house in Lincoln, Mass, a few times. He drove us to the airport when we went to India for the Vedic Science conference. I stayed in his parents' house in New Delhi for two months, and he was there part of that time. He was always a sweet guy. A brilliant mind, as is obvious, but also a very good heart. He was in the core of the Movement for a while, but the weirdness got to be too much for him, so he bailed. I'd say he's made a very positive contribution since then. He's turned a lot of people onto healthy stuff, probably far more effectively than he would have had he stayed in the TMO. ------------------------ Yahoo!
