You're a True Believer, Lawson. You will find a way to justify ANYTHING the TM movement does and trying to characterize anyone who sees its idiocy and manip- ulation as "misrepresenting" that idiocy and manipulation.

He made it "official policy" and went so far as to declare that NO ONE can teach TM in any other setting. I'd say that implies a little something about efficacy, even if that term was not used. Face it, man...Maharishi's gone stark, raving mad over this vastu thing. He's been locked away inside buildings without seeing the sun for so long that he's come to believe that enlightenment really depends on which direction the building is facing. > > Face it, Lawson...the "guideline" in this case > > comes straight from the top, from Maharishi, and > > it is *clearly* an obsession, one that invalidates > > and calls into question his own life's work. > > Face it, you're either deliberately misinterpretting what has been > said, or really quite stupid.

Oh, do mean like when someone declares that TM can only be effectively taught in buildings that face a particular direction? :-) Sounds like an obsession to me. The entrance at 1015 Gayley Avenue faced primarily north. Does that mean that all of the people initiated there over the years received a "defective" technique? Face it, Lawson...the "guideline" in this case comes straight from the top, from Maharishi, and it is *clearly* an obsession, one that invalidates and calls into question his own life's work. Yahoo!

It seems so undigestable" As far as I can remember this is the closest M ever came to talking about diet in the 60's and early 70's. Don't eat something if you know it interferes with your meditation or makes you sick. Eat what your mother cooks for you was always the standard. I think the age of enlightenment courses were the first to serve pure vegetarian diet and M didn't make a big deal out of it either.

In the early days (1967-69...early for me at least), Maharishi used to have a pat answer for people who asked him questions about diet and lifestyle and how they should live their lives. He used to say, "It is not a favor to the seeker to answer such questions.

It was their own impatience, yearning for Realization, and lack of confidence in themselves that drew out this Vedic oriented knowledge, which some of them become unbalanced about.

These are the same people who were told when they started TM that all they had to do was do TM for 20 minutes twice a day and then go out into activity and act according to the dictates of common sense and their own traditions. Now, there's a dictate from the TMO for every aspect of the relative field of activity: what direction to face; what foods to eat (and where, of course, to buy them!); what type of building to live, sleep, meditate and work in; be guided by astrology and certain vedic rituals to ward off negativity (and pay through the nose for it); and have your health treated by Ayur-Veda and Vedic Vibration.

You're being intentionally obtuse. The *reason* there was a problem is that their world view didn't allow them to conceive that there might someday be a problem. "Things like this" just aren't supposed to happen with TMers. So they didn't prepare for them.

Interesting that you should bring up the issue of dharma here. Keeping silent while a teacher does something you know is wrong is, according to most teachings I've encountered, *against* the dharma, not following it. Thus the students who remain silent in the face of such actions invoke a set of karmas that not only allow the teacher to continue acting from a low state of consciousness, but in the process lower their own state of consciousness to that level or lower. And it becomes a self-perpetuating cycle. Once the cycle of denial of wrongdoing and blind support for wrong action has begun within a spiritual organization, it's really, really difficult to turn it around. > But, then again, MMY has > created this environment of artificiality and > mood-making around him. Yes he has. Having spread the myth that the enlightened are incapable of wrong action, and having created an environment in which students were encouraged to think of him as enlightened, he pretty much *had* to create another environ- ment in which doubt was considered "off the program" and in which criticism of the teacher was "just cause" for being kicked out of the study. It's a classic model of what happens when a teacher who isn't ready to teach is allowed to do so anyway. > Quite the shame. Do they even > have a business plan for this bond-scam? It's > ridiculous and will work as well as the pundit groups, > world peace palaces and all the other ridiculous > business plansnada... On the other hand, this one has the potential of pulling back the curtain and revealing the man behind the curtain, big-time. All it would take to "blow the whistle" on the *real* nature of the TM movement and its insane pursuit of money woould be for one person to "invest" a million Euros and then, one year later to the day, ask for the 1,150,000 Euros that were promised to him. If the TMO does not produce them, immediately, then the veil of secrecy is lifted, and the whole thing is in the hands of the public and the media, not to mention the police. What the TMO is counting on with this "bond offer" is that the investors will be the same domesticated sheep that they've grown used to dealing with in their other scams. The TM TB investors never speak up when they are ripped off, because they've been *trained* never to criticize the "enlightened" teacher or any of his plans. So the TMO gets to keep their money and get away with fleecing them. IMO, they are assuming they'll be able to do the same thing with this new scam. Either that, or it's even more insidious than that. They'll create this phony "bond issue," try to sucker a few people into "investing" in it, then wait for Maharishi to die. Within a couple of months of his death, the on-paper organization that has issued the "bonds" will declare bank- ruptcy and disappear, and will get to keep all the money, pseudo-legally. If the courts can't *find* the money (for example, if it's been transferred to India and disappeared into the black hole of MMY's relatives there), they can't force the org that is going bankrupt to repay it. THAT is what I suspect the real long-term idea behind this bond scheme is. The TMO has taken a page from the Enron playbook and is attempting to run a similar scam. Yahoo!

Snip. No one is saying they could have filled Maharishi's sandals. And no one is saying that the TM hasn't benefited them and the world. I don't claim to be qualified to be President of the United States. But that doesn't mean I'm not qualified to criticize the President. Maharishi did many things while presenting himself to the public as someone who didn't or wouldn't do those things, apparently thinking he was getting away with it because his ruse was working. But he didn't get away with it, because such behavior took a toll on his psychology and personality, which is now painfully evident to all but the most ardent true believer. Yahoo!
