I always thought it was based on the Kumba Mela effect where every 12 years there is the big get together of yogis in India that is supposed to create great waves of peace though sometimes it results in great waves of people being stampled.

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...

That's right. What Rick was saying was that saving lives, as Maharishi did in Teheran, was insane.Makes you wonder what side everyone is...

I was only summarizing what Rick said he now thinks about going to Tehran to participate in group meditation during teh Fall of the Shah:

Insane ("crazy" was the actual technical term he used, I think).

BTW: I'm sorry, I thought your post was by Bhairitu, notorios for making broad and misleading comments about a movement he left years if not decades ago. Your posts usually command a high level of respect.

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.

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/.
