-----Frankly, not having met Maharishi, not having been a secretary of his, nor having known any of his secretaries first hand. Therefore knowing virtually knowing about Maharishi - the man, vs. Maharishi the God, I have very little honest opinion about him.    It seems whatever opinion I can possibly have about M is related to my meditation. Same goes for his organization.  Therefore on days of good meditations I feel the basic connection to his spiritual side. On days of no meditations I feel the grosser side which is basic samsaric life, and I think those thoughts and reflect them back upon the man.   Now Rick knows M personally, he was a secretary for M, and he knows perhaps more people who were close to M personally than probably anyone else in the world alive today.   Me, I waffle back and forth about M, his Movement and his teachings, Rick doesn't waffle. He has remained steadfast in his opinions on M for a number of years.  So what I'm saying is that his steadfast thoughts concerning M don't come and go and so there is a stable basis for his opinions on M.   I doubt anyone else here has the necessary connections, initiative and personal experience to be able to size M, the man, up.  So I must trust Rick, since I don't even know M, and therefore what people say is all we have to go by.   I certainly wouldn't trust the motives of any of M's close followers, brainwashed idealists that they are.      ----- Original Message ----- From: feste37 To: FairfieldLife@yahoogroups.com Sent: Monday, July 18, 2005 8:30 AM Subject: [FairfieldLife] Re: Email from an old friend It's not a mixed metaphor, but I do prefer your version. --- In FairfieldLife@yahoogroups.com, "Llundrub" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]...> wrote: > > no ill, yet he sticks the knife in at every opportunity he gets -- > stabbing with a > smile -- thus adding the stain of hypocrisy to the stench of > betrayal. > > ------As a literature student I object to the mixed metaphors as it sounds like something an old folks home orderly would say.
