Well Buck, those potential stringer uppers are idiots IMHO. It's great to have a place where people can really speak their minds. Otherwise how can any progress happen?

I know Maharishi was surprised that some of his western disciples were so decisive and energetic in their eager to serve what Benjamin Creme calls: the "The Forces of Matter" or darkness, tamas. It puzzled Him a great deal to see that western students so easily would no longer serve Guru Dev but would rather serve the $ and a narrow-minded idea of a "nation". If you hereby assume that my take is that Rick Archer has betrayed his own future you are absolutely correct. [-Nab] The 'anti-force'? Well, generally it does appear there is some resistance to TM out there sort of like al qaeda may be organized and fanatical. Not necessarily affiliated or coordinated other than some Christians may have used TM to scape-goat and go after for their own purposes with their own followers. That always works for demigods. But there evidently is an obsessed opposition to the belief that there is value in practicing meditation and TM in particular. Though not necessarily anti- I feel Rick is in spiritual fact interested in traditions of truth. In fact I feel he is a millenarian and revolutionary like so many of us broadly in TM and as such a patriot for the holy traditions of truth. Nothing he has brought up over the years can not be answered by truth. In ways he has been very useful in his ability to ask questions and lead people in discussions. In the days with Maharishi there were two people who could capably get to the microphone to ask questions of Maharishi and lead Maharishi to fabulous discourse. Harry Pavelka was one and Rick Archer was the other. Some of the best and most spiritual footage of Maharishi recorded in the tape archives is with either of these two guys at the microphone asking a series of questions. My tru-believer friends here too typically go ballistic when Rick's name is brought up in conversation. It is stunning to witness the vitriol when it come around Rick from them. Polite conversation has to end when they pull it out and let it fly around Rick. Seems they use Rick for their own purposes like some Christians would use TM but this is a small element within TM anymore as it is a small element within Christianity to do with TM. I would hope someday that there could be a peace and reconciliation come between these ultra hard-core either way around this and life could go on as in the Garden of Eden once again for everyone around spirituality. âAll I am saying is give peace a chanceâ, -Buck in the Dome
