Literally. There is a bottom line here that you seem to be missing. Those on this forum who criticize Maharishi aren't asking for your money. Maharishi is, and he tries his best to make you feel bad and feel guilty when you don't give it to him. The critics here are not "denouncing" Maharishi, Lawson. You can feel the lingering love they feel for the man underneath their criticisms, if you aren't trying to blind yourself to it. They're just waking up to more of who Maharishi is, and dealing with it. Others (the True Believers) obviously prefer to keep ponying up the big bucks SO THAT they never have to deal with these other sides of who Maharishi is. As a non-teacher, it just costs you less to keep believing in Maharishi. If you had been a teacher, it would have cost you thousands of dollars in the last few months just to still be considered part of the organization. Pay to be "recertified" at something you were certified at decades ago or be history. It's a fascinating scene, when viewed from a distance. The closer it gets to Maharishi's death, the more disconnection from rationality is being asked of the True Believers in order to perpetuate their belief in Maharishi and cling to it. And the more money. As you stated so accurately, you're money's on him. May it buy you what you hope it does... ------------------------ Yahoo!
