I have no idea what you mean when you say, "And are these same ideas being cloned onto splinter satsang groups?" As for your other question, "Are there significant parallels between the Third Reich and Mahesh's spiritual movement, I'd say definitely there are. Name any article of faith you find repeated in this town, name any of the often repeated quotes of things Mahesh is supposed to have said, and it was repeated and believed in Nazi Germany. They didn't call it enlightenment, but they were all striving to be the Ubermensch. It meant basically the same thing. Devotion to the Guru was important, and the Guru, for the SS, was Hitler. They thought of themselves as pure warriors monks. They could get married, of course, but they had to have permission from on high, and the girl had to pass muster. Purity of the nervous system was purity of the blood. They believed in karma, and in performing action established in Being. They believed in detachment and they believed in higher states of consciousness. They had nine of them.

[FairfieldLife] Mahesh and Hitler
Dedicated to Nablososs Jai Guru Dev Love, Sri Sri Vaj Illuminati Headquarters Brocken Mountain, Germany from Msg.# 16079 Maharishi on Hitler This is from a Jewish friend who was full-time in the TMO for many years, including Purusha and International Staff in Vlodrop and elsewhere. He’s now with a different teacher. We had a private discussion about this a couple of months ago and I asked if I could post this. He said I could but asked that I not mention his name. Some time after being on Purusha, I discovered, to my great amazement, that some German Purusha were wearing swastikas under their ties, celebrating Hitler's birthday, and generally feeling very bully about the whole thing.

I heard that from Maharishi myself, in Washington DC in 1983, when a reporter asked him what he thought of Hitler. He said, that Hitler was actually a good strong leader who unified Germany, it's just too bad that he did so much indiscriminate killing. All these caused me quite a shock at the time, and finally I decided to confront a question that had bothered me from childhood: how could intelligent, sophisticated Germans (and some of the leaders of his party and the SS were indeed sophisticated and intelligent) follow him? Some of them were reputed to be lovers of classical music, devoted husbands, doting fathers, fond of animals and loved to tend their rose gardens -- but had no problem going to work in the morning, work being the extermination of yet another transport of thousands of Jews. I asked one of my German "friends" to get me some Nazi literature about Hitler, that I was interested in learning more about how THEY viewed him. One of them got me a few magazines which were published on high-quality paper, with no ads (so a lot of money was involved). The magazines were all in German. I struggled through the articles, and was particularly struck by two of them: one about Hitler's love affairs, and another an account by his driver, who was the last person to see Hitler alive. The one about the love affairs was interesting: it turned out, that although he was partially impotent -- some of his aids were constantly on the lookout for any medical doctor who could provide him with a preparation to increase his potency -- once he had an affair with a woman, that woman was so enamored with him, that when he left her she committed suicide. This has happened a number of times. It even happened in the case of a British woman, who was in England when Churchill declared war, so she could not return to Germany and committed suicide from agony. Such was his charisma and power over people. But what was much more revealing to me was the account of his driver. As he was describing Hitler's last hours, he was speaking about the terrible loss and bereavement that he experienced -- and there was something heartbreaking about his devotion to Hitler. I'm serious: I completely identified with his intense emotions. I was only familiar with such powerful emotions in relationship to God or to one's Guru -- but here was a person who was relating to Hitler in this way, and was still lamenting his death so many years later, knowing all that he had done! I later on saw a BBC 6-hr documentary program on the rise of Nazism. They interviewed a person who worked with him closely at one point. And that person spoke about Hitler with the same passion that one speaks of one's Guru. He described his experience of interacting with Hitler -- there's no other way to describe it, except a spiritual experience -- and said, in this regard: "I saw this side of Hitler, Hitler's most beautiful side; and no one can take it away from me. That is the Hitler I know and cherish". Why am I saying all this? Because that was the first time I understood how Hitler could have done what he had done. People who came in contact with him had a spiritual experience, and you know how such a profound experience often makes you surrender your discriminating ability. And you can even do atrocities. It was also the first time I realized that the power of spiritual people to give experience is potentially dangerous. It made me realize, that had I been a non-Jewish German at the time of Hitler, I could have potentially joined to Nazi party -- if that was the transmission that came out of Hitler. My response to this was: This is interesting stuff. As you know, the Vedas depict many great demons, such as Ravana, as being extremely charismatic, learned,
