> What would be better; the continuation of Kali Yuga or accepting Bevan as a > fact ? > Bevan is the essence of Kali Yuga. He's the leader of the nutjob faction in Vlodrop. He's the main obstruction that's stopping the TMO move towards becoming more acceptable to the public and for people who have learned TM going on to become teachers. Tony Nader wanted to drop the prices so more people would learn and Bevan wouldn't allow it, though I hear that he's now been overruled.
Whenever the movement has shown harshness or hardheartedness towards people, Bevan is there encouraging people towards more harshness. He is the driving force behind the plans to use legal teams to silence dissent. Wherever there has been dubious financial dealings Bevan is there. If you add up everything he's ever done you'll see that the sum total of Bevan's "achievements" has been to take all the social capital that the movement had in the late '70s and convert it into a lot of pompous long winded speeches that have no purpose other than to cement his authority. Everyone, rajas included, will breathe a sigh of relief when he breathes his last. In a few years MUM will close because it can't get the staff. That is Bevan's doing.
