In the first place, depending on the subject of the painting, very often the person who commissioned it was portrayed in it as an onlooker. In the second place, to the extent that Vermeer wrote or spoke about this painting, he would most certainly have mentioned the person who had commissioned it; it would have been considered churlish and ungrateful not to. Maharishi tried to rip off a guy's talent and charisma, and the guy wised up and took both with him when he left. End of story. You mean, end of spin (for now). Yahoo!

He is, simply, a great communicator...a faculty for explaining in a melodic and soothing way abstract concepts in an interesting and educational way. Of course, virtually 90% of what he says comes from Maharishi. This is not a put-down, but an observation. I just find it curious that he uses MMY's exact phrasing of things. He is basically a celebrity TM teacher without the TM. Who changes his books to eliminate all reference to MMY and TM. He must really be angry with the TMO and MMY to have done that. I've always suspected the TMO *asked* him to do so, to avoid any possible confusion about whether he's teaching genyoowine TM under MMY's auspices. I also suspect Deepak would be quite happy to trade on MMY's name if he could, but he doesn't want to get into a fight with the TMO, so he doesn't. He certainly doesn't try to hide his past association with MMY and the TMO, as we saw a while back with his interview with that Indian paper about why the Beatles supposedly left MMY's ashram. Yahoo!

He changed the book sufficiently that people get the idea that _Quantum Healing_ is about his Quantum Sound meditation technique. Yahoo! Groups Sponsor ~-- Great things are happening at Yahoo!

I also hear The War Tapes is quite good. shempmcgurk wrote: --- In FairfieldLife@yahoogroups.com, Bhairitu [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: I recommended God and Buddha. You might also enjoy Fierce Grace, if you haven't already seen it. If that's the Baba Rum Dum documentary then, yes, I've seen it and enjoyed it (although, as usual, I found Ram Das to be a complete mood maker). shempmcgurk wrote: Thanks to Barry for recommennding The Advocate and whomever recommended God and Buddha.
