me an even scarcer entity. But I'm still not a teacher and really
clued in. What are MMY and other teachers trying to accomplish? It
is to make a foolish spectacle, yes? To start a seeming endless
array of projects and never do more than give them a launch and lip
service, yes?

Well, they are all attempting to raise the vibration of the student.
In whatever way they know how.
And according to their state of consciousness.
Most people were attracted to Maharishi because of his state of
consciousness.
Especially in the earlier days, before everything became so dogmatic
and serious.
He seems to have pulled back around the time that the U.S. court
found TM to be a religion.
Or, at least I remember Jerry Jarvis freaking out at the time,
That part of the plan was to get the TM thing into the mainstream,
the 'Days of Merv', and so on...
So, I feel when he felt rejected, more and more, from the mainstream;
He began to depend on people, who changed the movement into something
different then it was.
I also felt that people were always wanting more from Maharishi, and
the Sidhis, and the group flying thing, were developed around and
after the time of the court case.
So, I just see Maharishi as someone who was embodying a higher state
of consciousness;
And attempting to teach as many people in the best way he could.
At the same time, I think he took on a lot of meditators karma, and
that is why I think he was at times tired.
So, he was here;
He made quite a mark.
And then he left.
