(He's said that on > alt.m.t, but he's said it here too, so...) ********** MMY has clearly enunciated the principle that the unfoldment of enlightenment in this materialistic age must proceed slowly, because the increase of the light of awareness can create havoc in material life, causing the ignorant to be more destructive: http://geocities.com/bbrigante/retards.html#light The quote about the need to gradually unfold enlightenment values in order to avoid creating "fear and havoc" in a materialistic world is from a pamphlet MMY authored in the 60s, "The Divine Plan." When the Beatles publicity rush hit, Bantam book took this pamphlet and two others and published them as "Meditations of Maharishi Mahesh Yogi," which is available through used/rare book dealers like alibris.com -- are you disputing the fact that MMY said that enlightenment has to go slow or do you simply not understand what he said? I'm not making anything up here. If you don't understand, well then you don't understand, but it's an easy to understand policy that MMY has said is the Divine Plan for restoring Vedic culture -- it's necessary that the progress of the TMO must proceed by fits and starts, however ridiculous that may look from the perspective of ordinary human reason (that's why MMY labeled the pamphlet "The DIVINE Plan."
