This great teacher continues to form so much of the subject matter,
here on FFL. All of us, spread around the globe, and yet, united,
through our association with Maharishi, and the myriad knowledge he
brought out.
It is so easy to judge a global public figure. Some go at it, as an
exercise in compensation, for their own failings, and others to
confirm their own set of beliefs. I find it amazing, his reach and
influence on all of us. Some of us got off the train early, perhaps
fearful of the universal momentum that Maharishi engendered in each of
us, and its ability to mechanically dissolve any boundaries.
My wife has remarked before, that feelings come first, and the story
follows. So it is, if we are always hungry for something, and grasping
for whatever it may be. Easy, then, to turn on a public figure,
meticulously examining Maharishi's life, even ten years after his
passing, for any information, that may be used to point a finger, away
from the lack, the gnawing, inside us, and towards him. This public
figure, with global influence. Make Maharishi the target, not in any
meaningful, or organized way, but simply to deal with the inner
feelings of discontent.
There is nothing expressed here, about Maharishi, that has not already
been examined, to death. And yet, there are a few, who must persist,
in their "critical, life changing, important and ever fresh", insults
of the man and his work, lest they one day, turn such a critical eye
on themselves. My question to them, is simply this, "Life is precious;
WTF are you doing with yours?"
