Nablusoss, maybe it's more accurate to say that Mahairishi redefined charisma
to mean someone who speaks the plain truth and thus awakens it in the listeners
rather than someone who uses theatrics, etc. to persuade audiences.
Now I am sure you have not been in the presence of a charismatic person. It
has absolutely nothing to do with theatrics. It is all about the energy that
emanates from that person and it contains power, and it is not overblown or
dramatic. It is quiet and pervasive.

The Turq didn't see any charisma because he was in the TMO for other reasons
than being attentive, the party and the broads, as he has told us ad nauseum.

Doug ("Buck") obviously has pretty low standards when it comes to charisma.
Based on my own experience -- both with Maharishi and with other teachers
since -- I would have to say that Maharishi Mahesh Yogi had about the same
level of charisma as my plumber. And my plumber charges less.

Jeezus X-mas, Not at all Charismatic? You evidently did not get to spend
much time around Maharishi.
That's a pity.
This is a good working definition of charismatic .. .
"Weber, in an oft quoted passage, defined charisma as a certain quality of an
individual personality, by virtue of which [s/]he is set apart from ordinary
[people] and treated as endowed with supernatural, superhuman, or at least
specifically exceptional powers or qualities. These are such as are not
accessible to the ordinary person, but are regarded as of divine origin or as
exemplary, and on the basis of them the individual concerned is treated as a
leader." 1

Thanks, Nablusoss, wonderful to hear Maharishi who's not at all charismatic.
And I mean that as a great compliment. I think he doesn't have to be because
he's speaking the plain truth.
