[FairfieldLife] MMY's uncle & Pundit Dubey

2005-06-01 Thread claudiouk
re Dr. Raj R. P. Varma - apparently is the author of "Strange Facts 
About A Great Saint: His Divinity Swami Brahmanand Saraswati Maharaj, 
Jagad Guru Shankaracharya of Jyotirmath, Badarikashram, Himalyas

an extract of which appears in:
http://www.vidyafoundation.com/Public/Home/UnderstandingYagya/KindsofY
agyas/GuruDevonPersonalDeities/index.cfm

which is the site of Vidya Foundation - started by Pundit Dubey ("ex 
teacher of Pundits and Special Consultant on the subjects of Jyotish 
and Yagya to Maharishi Mahesh Yogi"). Still associated with MMY?

No. Eric Ashelman and Katherine Serenduc organize his yagyas. They're here
