Yes, Norbert Weiss from cologne. He was quite a character. He went to International later, and did some Sidha-land activity in Macau. He was quite close to MMY at one point, but was also frequently outgoing at that time. When the Purusha project came along, he wanted to join it, bt MMY explained to him that it wasn't necessary for him. He went back to Cologne and then I lost contact. > It's > the only German name I remember from the course, although I do > remember spending an evening with several Germans who were telling me > that Hitler (as this is not an "argument" I hope this won't degrade > my story) was very spiritual in the beginning - People coming up to > him and giving him flowers, etc. Yes this was Norbert. He was a big fan of an initiator who imagined himself having been Ernst Röhm, chief of the SA who was executed by Hitler later on. > They were very forceful in there > arguments, but it was too much for me to buy. Sure. He had all these weird theories. But he was very forceful, sort of a leader type. We were friends and hanging out a lot together. We were also at phase one together. We laughed a lot together. We also had one TM teacher we both adored, who was essential for our initial TM experience. He first was in Cologne and then went to Nuremberg where I am from. > > TM (like scientology) assumes that the stresses are located > > physically.
