Hey, all

According to Mantreshwar, an ancient jyotish author, my birth chart 
has a yoga for being a sanyasi, practicing a form of Buddhism.  As a 
practicing TM meditator, I was at first puzzled by this observation.  
However, after pondering the description of this yoga, I became 
appreciative of the author's wisdom and perception.  Here's why:

  In many of his commentaries MMY shows deep respect for the Lord 
Buddha.  MMY states, nevertheless, that the Buddha's teachings have 
been misunderstood.  MMY states that TM and its tradition have the 
correct interpretation of the Buddha's teachings, as stated in MMY's 
commentary to the Gita.

It appears that Mantreshwar, if he were alive today, would consider 
TM as a form of Buddhist practice.

Regards,

John R.
