Since we're telling "Maharishi stories," here's a good one that involved Sattyanand, told to me by Jerry Jarvis. It was during a trip to India, and Jerry and Maharishi and Sattyanand were traveling together, and had to catch a train. Maharishi and Sattyanand got on the train, but Jerry, who was schlepping all the baggage, did not. He was still on the platform when the train started to pull out of the station. So Maharishi reached up and pulled the Emergency Stop handle. The train screeches to a halt and all hell breaks loose. Jerry scrambles onto the train and is standing there with Maharishi when squads of Indian conductors and police come into the car, searching for the culprit who illegally stopped the train. Everyone in the car is staring at the three of them. The police walk up and ask Maharishi, who they didn't know as anyone except Yet Another Guy In A Dhoti, "Who pulled the cord?" According to Jerry, Maharishi didn't hesitate for an instant. He pointed to Sattyanand and said, "He did." The police dragged Sattyanand away and he spent the night in jail. According to Jerry, when he caught up with them in the next town, Maharishi and Sattyanand just couldn't stop laughing about it, for days. Now THAT is a sweet story that I like...
