There certainly are aspects of M.'s teaching which really have the mark of being influenced by the British and possibly--most likely--a heavily Brit-influenced education. We really don't know because M. has done such a great job at hiding his past. There are certain earmarks I look for in a version of Indian teachings which have been tainted by western, mostly Christian, influence and M.'s filtering of Indian trads. is filled with that style. I suspect part of the reason for bagpipes is it's microtonality. To subscribe, send a message to: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Or go to: http://groups.yahoo.com/group/FairfieldLife/ and click 'Join This Group!'
