And his "mutterings" were ironclad policies that affected the lives of many people.

Here is a guy who is supposed to be the embodiment of his own system revealing that it didn't work very well in increasing his own mental capacity and whose physical state not only reveals that he was NOT in possession of knowledge worthy of the grandiose claim of being "the supreme > > authorities on health", he falls waaaay short of a man I have witnessed using the rasayana "Dry Martini" followed by sacred cow in as many forms as he could find it.

I wonder - what about this tale of Chopra's about how MMY was (maybe) poisoned and very nearly died? I have no idea if that is true or not (but Chopra seems credible on this?). If true, did MMY perhaps never really fully recover?
