In message 45988, you say: "But anyway, I have come to view MMY's uncle 'Dr' Raj Varma's remarks with some caution since observing that the major part of his 1980 book 'Strange Facts About a Great Saint' was derived from a direct translation of Rameshwar Tiwari's 1965 Hindi biography of Guru Dev and parts of a 1950 compilation of Guru Dev quotations. This creates the illusion to the casual reader that he has contributed a fresh biography. Seemingly his biographical notes, contained in Elsa Dragemark's book, also stem from Rameshwar's precious biography." So you do not equate the word "suspect" with your remarks above that you view with "caution" about the "illusion" created? You have a remarkably weaselly way with words -- no wonder MMY and TM administrators refuse to talk to you. > Remember it was you misquoted my reference to Raj Varma's comments, > comments that were contained not in his book but in Elsa Dragemark's > and therefore my own. I did not claim to be quoting your book -- I merely suggested that my recollection that MMY slept at the foot of Guru Dev's bed came from a reading of your book, and in fact it does say in your book that MMY did sleep on the floor near Guru Dev, the only difference being that MMY slept just outside his door, and not at the foot of the bed as I misrembered it. Again, an instance of how truly weaselly you are. Does this set you straight?
