When asked why his master, Guru Dev, didn't stick around and enlighten the world, Maharishi said that this would be "too small a task" for Guru Dev. A similar note is struck in the last paragraphs of Maharishi's commentary on Ch. 1, verse 15 of the Bhagavad Gita where Maharishi notes that "The occasion [the epic battle recounted in the Mahabharata] was too far beneath the divinity of Lord Krishna for Him to respond."
