On a more serious note, you might also ask the question "what > was the agenda of the person writing the article?" Exactly MD. Or the agenda of the fellow publishing it here on FFL. Reading the article one will see that the claims stems from leaders in the Hare Krisha movement itself who where quick in dropping this nonsense to the newspapers. Hardly a surprise. It must have been difficult for them to digest that the press, notably television, was showing extensive footage of George Harrison with Maharishi in the week after Harrison's death - and to my knowlegde - nothing of George and Prabupad or him together with the Hare Krishnas whatsoever.

"... Where, written or orally did Maharishi use Doug Henning or The Beatles for his/movements publicity ? Source please !" Sources are in abundance if you look at advertising. Emotional connections - the glue in advert language - are successful to the degree that they are suggested. Pucchini never drove a Japanese import; but todayÕs drives find it comforting to know that skidding on wet pavement is safer if performed in a Honda while listening to Turandot.

You have never, ever heard Maharishi > use a celebrity for his own/the movements ends. Bullshit. You were obviously not around for the Merv wave. I was, driving Clint Eastwood around and letting him in to Maharishi's hotel room the night before the show. I sat there and watched Clint graciously say No to Maharishi's rather ungracious attempts to have him prostelytizing for the TM movement and/or using his name to sell TM. And I saw it many, many, many times during those days. There were even a few of us in L.A. who specialized in teaching TM to celebrities, with the express condition that we never reveal who they were and that they had learned TM. They had learned very quickly that if they learned through the normal channels they would be hit up for money and their names associated with the TMO.

I gave an intro lecture one night there to Raquel Welch, who was so understated that I didn't know it was her until she came up and thanked me after- wards and invited me out for coffee to ask a few more questions privately. Nice lady...much, much smarter than most gave her credit for. I don't know if she started or not; she expressed reservations about being associated publicly with TM, so I turned her over to my friend who specialized in such things. He, being a man of his word, would never say who he instructed. > I never knew of any of them being hit up for money > or publicity. In those days it was mainly being hit up for publicity, being asked to attend public TM functions, say that they practiced TM on talk shows, etc. A lot of them didn't like it much. I didn't like it much, either, so I never did any of this. Unc To subscribe, send a message to: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Or go to: http://groups.yahoo.com/group/FairfieldLife/ and click 'Join This Group!'

Is there > anyone else (that you can mention) that turned Maharishi down? Clint struck me a really decent guy. I don't really have any other stories about celebrity TMers (in or out of the closet) that I can share, but I can share a great one about Clint. That night before the Merv show he came to Maharishi's hotel to meet him privately, which is really the only reason he had agreed to be on his neighbor Merv's TV show (Clint doesn't *do* talk shows). So that night I got stuck with "door duty," which is not exactly the picnic it sounds like. I was supposed to stand at the door of the hotel room and let in the people whom Maharishi wanted to see, when he wanted to see them, and to keep everyone else out. So I'm standing there with a bunch of people sitting around on the floor of this Beverly Hills hotel, waiting to see if they'll ever get in, and up walks Clint. I've been told to expect him, so I offer to show him right in. But he looks at the pile of shoes outside the door and he looks at me and he says, "Barry, are we supposed to take our shoes off?" And I look up at Clint (he really IS that tall) and say, "Well, it's kind of a traditional Indian thing, Clint." So he gives me one of those Dirty Harry glares, and then sheepishly reaches down and takes off his cowboy boots. And the whole reason for his hesitation? The reason he didn't want to take off his boots? Clint Eastwood, the number one box office star in the world at that point, has these enormous holes in his socks. He's got one big toe sticking out, and other holes all over. The socks are more holes than socks. I laugh, he laughs, and I suggest that he dump the socks, too, and he does, and goes into the room barefoot. I got relieved as door guard later, and got to go in and see some of the interaction between the two of them, and he looked quite comfortable. But I still think it's one of the sweetest things I've ever seen, this supposedly big- time actor running around with big holes in his socks and getting busted for it when he goes to meet Maharishi. I'll always have a soft spot in my heart for him because of that moment.

For that kind of deal to be effective it has to be mutually benificial. I doubt MMY would have cared if it was beneficial to Clint. Appearing on Merv was more than sufficient.

[FairfieldLife] Re: George Harrison
I wonder what would have happened had the Beatles gone along with Maharishi's desire to spread this knowledge as quickly as possible. I am sure Maharishi was very excited at the prospect of accelerating the teaching of this knowledge as he is now, and always has been. The Beatles had tremendous power in those days to influence millions of people in my generation. Instead, they were swept away by rumor and inuendo; world consciousness was not ready for that purification at that time, with Viet Nam, and the assasinations of RFK and MLK. According to Cynthia Lennon's account, of that time period, John was doing well in India, better than in years, and upon his l India, got involved with Yoko Ono, and started his addiction to heroin.

[FairfieldLife] Re: George Harrison i Royal Albert Hall
Paul Mason is correct in saying that Harrison did the conscert more for his own career. However, he did want to do it also to give NLP publicity and asked the movement to organize it. 3 people in Vlodrop/London worked fulltime on this for months. Harrison was nervous about the concert since he had not performed live in many years. However, it was a huge success with Ringo at the drums on some songs. At the reception after the concert Harrison was very happy and in bliss, and was presented with a cake-ceremony by Jeoffrey Clements and others from NLP.

[FairfieldLife] Re: George Harrison - Om Hare Om Gopala Krishna
Haven't heard that one for a while - thanks. Is it just me or does any one else think that after Harrison took up with Indian ways - and after the Beatles' break-up and him producing his solo albums - his music did come across as a bit - what's the word? - a bit of a downer? He's supposed to have found God so shouldn't his songs be all light and joy? (OK - My Sweet Lord is one of a kind.)

[FairfieldLife] Re: George Harrison - Om Hare Om Gopala Krishna
Amen to everything you say here. By the way, re the "Old Brown Shoe" track I posted: Back in the day I said to a friend once, "I really, really like that new Beatles' single "The Ballad of John and Yoko". Her face curled into a sneer and she said to me: "That's the commercial side." The B-side was "Old Brown Shoe" which she was implying was the one that true aficionados would prefer. What amused me was that I really liked both songs. And I've always thought it a revealing insight into the snobbishness of those who are devoted to rock - which after all is pop(ular) music. Later I realised that whereas to me "rock" was just something I enjoyed coming out of a radio or after feeding coins into a jukebox, to my friend (who read the music mags assiduously) it was more akin to a religion and her snooty attitude reflected her enthusiasm and commitment. There's nothing wrong with a bit of snobbishness - even if it does look slightly ridiculous to those who have other interests. Yes - John Lennon, Brian Jones, Jimi Hendrix and Jim Morrison: what they would be doing today is something I've often wondered. ---In FairfieldLife@yahoogroups.com, wrote : Just so I don't forget to reply to this (and so you don't feel as if you are the only person who has ever felt this), I interject a big "Me, too!"

Harrison's type of relationship to krishna was clearly based on bhativedanta's bhakti version/translation of the gita, not mmy's. If you've been on ttc you've seen the tape in which mmy states his negative opinion of the ISKON movt. To say they're essentially the same because both gurus has commented on the gita is rather silly. Yahoo! Groups Sponsor ~--> Get fast access to your favorite Yahoo! Groups.

It is a state of consciousness. Krishna was Arjuna's Divine Self riding in the Chariot of Life. Since you mentioned Bhakti, that is the same as Maharishi's 'God consciousness', devotion to God. Through TM Harrison (and from his own good karma from the past) reached consistent GC (Krishna Concsiousness) and like anyone in GC feels strongly the impulse of love and devotion to the higher Divine Self (Krishna). This is what Arjuna did also. OFfWorld Yahoo! Groups Sponsor ~--> Get fast access to your favorite Yahoo! Groups.

I trust you get my point. Nothing I've ever heard of MMY's teaching says a TMer can't be a servant of Krishna (or Jesus or Muhammad or...). TM sadhana is, you know, TM. That's the meditation practice. Anything else is up to the individual, especially one's choice of object of devotion. Yahoo! Groups Sponsor ~--> Get fast access to your favorite Yahoo! Groups.

Judy's pt is true for a "tmer", but offworlds wasn't describing harrison as a tmer but the truest of devotees of MMY. Having coordinated several CICs, I assure you that Vaj is right - you'd never get accepted to take the sidhis course (much less be considered a devotee of mmy) if you indicate an affiliation of any kind with the hare krishnas.

Let's refresh our memories of the context, since Vaj keeps snipping it. Here was the quote Vaj offered as proof that George was no longer a devotee of MMY: "My life belongs the Lord Krishna now. I'm just the servant of Krishna. I've never been so humble in all my life, and I feel great." And here's the quote OffWorld provided to which Vaj was responding: "Maharishi only ever did good for us, and although I have not been with him physically, I never left him." I don't see any obvious incompatibility there (nor is there any mention of ISKCON in Vaj's quote). For that matter, MMY has never encouraged devotion, in the sense of worship, of himself. I don't know whether George switched his allegiance from MMY to ISKCON, and in so doing definitively rejected MMY, as Vaj claims. My point is that Vaj is going to have to do a lot better than he has so far if he wants to prove that is anything more than "unfounded rumor," if not "desperate disinformation." Vaj has conveniently flexible standards for proof. Yahoo! Groups Sponsor ~--> AIDS in India: A "lurking bomb."

The context I'm responding to is in the title of this thread which was written by offworlds - "George Harrison, most devoted to MMY of all devotees". It's absurd. I don't think george rejected MMY, but clearly his main spiritual allegiance was with iskon if it was with anything. George wasn't a rejecting type, remember he had a number 1 hit with a chorus featuring of halleluias and hare krishnas. I'm not saying this as a tmer, but as a beatles fanatic.

Being 'considered' a devotee (by others), and BEING a devotee are entirely different things. Harrison was truly devotee, and visited Vlodrop in the late 1990's even after all the other practices. Anyway, as far as I know, they do not tell you you can't take the sidhis, but in certain cases that involve techniques, they advise a space before taking siddhis etc. OffWorld Yahoo!

Maharishi doesn't care. He only advises in rational fashion. He doesn't care if you don't like his rational.

Harrison HIMSELF said in another quote that (paraphrasing) that he didn't appreciate all the division and comparing of gurus that goes on. He thinks it is sub- standard behaviour. He made this very clear. So for Vaj to use that devious method puts him in the very category that Harrison did not appreciate and avoided. Its just not appropriate behaviour for a yogi or an aspirant. Vaj is as far away from being a Buddhist as it is possible to be. His Buddhist (or other) teachers would be gravely dissappointed in him.

Maybe. But what is even more OTP is the fact that he didn't leave the TMO any of his life-savings, but chose instead to give it to his (gasp!) family.

That's probably just because they haven't thought of it yet.

The puja parts aren't plagiarized - just the tune, according to the court case. The puja parts are traditional and not exclusive to the TMO. Yahoo!
