**** I find this story to be at best only partly true. First the main motivation writing it seems to be trying to stifle and discourage critical evaluation of MMY. In the last paragraph criticism is implied to be identical with mocking, which it factually is not. Anyone who cannot recognize MMY's great status as a great master is a fool with the consciousness of a rock. This means that at least 99% of the worlds human beings have that level of consciousness. Totally insane. Even if the rest of the text had more sanity and sincerity in it, and would reflect more calm, clear and balanced insight, this passage makes it all really dubious.
