Good Lord, WGM! In one short post, you have committed the ultimate blasphemy against Nabby, Buck, doc, dan, feste, sri, steve and Share's religion as well as utterly dashing their hopes for redemption, if they had the good sense to pay attention to you.
The part about Marshy's made up dog and pony show not coming from GD was the worst blasphemy of all. ________________________________ From: wgm4u <[email protected]> To: [email protected] Sent: Thursday, September 11, 2014 4:45 PM Subject: Re: [FairfieldLife] Re: Rapid City, ND sees earliest snowfall since 1888. MMY used hyperbole to promote his ideas, understanding that and your question will be answered. I think MMY even believed his own rhetoric, he made up TM (a good beginner program, don't get me wrong) but I don't think it came from Guru Dev. I think MMY believed transcendental conscious could be obtained in a few years, whereas in practice most people won't even transcend fully ONCE in their lifetime! Hence his idea that TM would bring about all of Patanjali's 8 limbs of Yoga as a *result* of practice is poppy cock. He even let slip in his Gita translation (such as it is) that the eight limbs of Patanjali's Yoga were meant to be *means* to Yoga and not *ends* (read it for yourself in the appendix under Yoga).
