I feel that part of the reason, that Maharishi took this action, was to contrast the effect of removing meditators from an area, and see if the predicted results, of increased chaos, would occur. As we have seen, in the past weeks, indeed the chaos in Britain has increased. His whole thrust is to demonstrate without a shadow of a doubt, that although it seems unlikely, in the materialistic model, or paradigm of the way things work; Maharishi is attempting to prove the opposite; That it is more important to create coherence, create harmony, and see how powerful of an effect that manifests. Every response that society makes is usually on the material level, sent more troops, send more money, develop better technology; Maharishi, just wants to be taken seriously. I think as a Capricorn, he demands respect, and has a great need to feel that he is making a difference. In a way, much of the shock value, of his various, tactics, I think is just an ironical way to be taken seriously.
