I can not see that MMY has been ignored and treated badly - quite the 
opposite I think. It is not fair to compare Socrates or other 
enlightened people with MMY, they did not have the recourses that MMY 
have. Maybe they were not that interested in wordly recourses - . To 
be cynical -. If the sign of being enlightened is so build the 
highest building in India and palaces in marble everywhere, MMY is 
the only enlightened man ever lived.
