It is unfortunate that people get trampled like that when they get
together at these really large yoga camps, like the billion-man march at
the Kumba Melee - especially when the trampling is being done by
so-called holy men and swamis themselves - who are in such a hurry to
get into the muddy river first. Most of these incidents were probably
caused by those naked nagas.
According to what I've read, tramplings have also occurred when
trance-induced pilgrims try to run real fast into downtown Mecca to see
who would be first in line to walk counter-clockwise around the black
rock. In 2006, there were some 600 casualties among pilgrims performing
the Hajj in Arabia. Apparently there have also been some tramplings in
China when people try to have large gatherings in Tiananmen Square.

I don’t think I ever said I don’t “believe” in the “Maharishi
Effect”. I think it’s an interesting theory. I think consciousness is
a field. I’ve been in groups as large as 8,000 meditating, and the
effect was palpable. I think the movement bends over backwards to try
to get sometimes dubious research to validate their theories, but
even if the research isn’t as rigorous as might be hoped, the theory
might have substance. I think TM research may have validated it to
some extent, but with the vested interest being so strong, one has to
take the reseach with a grain of salt.

Om, you people are re-contextualizing words in Rick's mouth here. In
context Rick don't have to believe nothing like what you are trying
to say, he certainly knows the Meissner field effect [M.E.] of
consciousness like the Maharishi Effect observes. Just what do you
think a darshan is? You doubters are pitiable spiritual midgets. You
are simply pitiable,

Well, Rick no longer believes in the Maharishi Effect, so...

My bad about saying that Rick was on Purusha when he went to Tehran.
As for the rest, you and Michael appear to sock puppets for each
other, misreading everything everyone else says and arguing
incessantly with people what you think they said, rather than what
they actually said...

First; Purusha wasn't even invented. Second; though all ambassies
expected huge problems,closed down and moved all personell out of the
country expecting riots and possible deaths and even though the
airlines closed down all flights to Teheran, not a single person was
hurt. It was a major success-story for our Movement. Despite what the

Well, in fact, the founder of this Forum, Rick Archer, wrote a
comment about the time he and a bunch of Perusha were sent into Iran
during the Fall, and how surreal it was to go on the roof of his
hotel after Program and watch buildings only a mile or so away
burning after being struck by weapons or something.
He also describes his current take on his activities back then:
/Insane/.
