All the Rajas in Indian history have been secular, with the exception of maybe the King Bhoja. Almost all the teachers in the Vedic Tradition are householders. There's probably not a single monk who was once a ruling official in ancient India. Even the Lord Narayana himself was married and had a family, likewise Shukra and Buddha, etc. > I don't see how the movement recovers > from this... > You sound really upset, and nosey. Apparently you bought into the whole guru cult - or, you're just highly suggestible. Why would you think that any of the TMO 'rajas' are practicing 'bramacharya'? It doesn't even make any sense - having a family that meditates is Natural Law. From what I've read, just about the only celibate in the TMO was Miss Pittman. Everyone now knows, thanks to the informants on FFL, that almost everyone in the movement, up to, and including the Maharishi himself, has been following tantric principles ever since Majorraca days, if not before. Haven't you read Ned Wynn's book yet? Go figure.
