Thanks for your very friendly and encouraging responses to my first post.
Someone said "Ignorance is Bliss", and it is such a beautiful point that he made that I must elaborate on it.(Everyone is the Guru deep down, and it is locating His message, reflected in the speech of this or that nervous system, that we must strive to do, to save us from being caught in unpleasantness): We should strive to enjoy the beauty of the roses, not focus on the thorns; we forgive the thorns, and trust that they will wither without our attention. Every thing in creation is relative and dual; everything has beauty from one angle, and not such from another. Even Maharishi and TM cannot escape this. Maharishi was just a man (albeit an exceptionally great one in all of history) and we cannot expect perfection from him, and also the Spiritual Regeneration Movement could never, because it is also relative, be perfect. But let us all enjoy the magnificence of the goals and achievements of Maharishi and TM, let us not dwell on the failings, it is unkind to those well-meaning souls who are striving for our benefit. Who could conceive of, and establish a Global Country of World Peace unifying the whole of humanity in Harmony? It is such a huge, wonderful vision. Let us all enjoy it together, and encourge it to grow! Jai Guru Dev David
