Richard, was this the same philosophy professor whose final exam was one word:
Why?
The only student who got an A+ for the exam responded: Why not?

Progress is based on how much the individual is able to challenge his
individual karma which to varying degree is resisting change. Every Teacher
knows you can't just push a button and then all of a sudden you are alright.
Maharishi said that inspiring stuff to inspire, not that he for a minute
believed it was possible for everyone knowing how much internal resistence
there can be in a student. Same With Yogananda, same with all Teachers.
Progress is the responsebility of the individual, not the Teacher. Blaming the
teacher just expose an immature soul.

Sometimes you learn things not through words but by actions.
In my Philosophy 101 class the teacher asked everyone if they thought things
move or were static - I said something like thoughts don't move, that ideas and
thoughts are just point-instants in the mind or something like that.
The teacher wadded up a page of notebook paper and threw it at me hitting me
on the head. Go figure.

The anger and self-loathing the naysayers have is based on that.
It doesn't trouble you that Willytex is talking complete and utter bollocks
as usual? Why can't you follow your own arguments?
Not having much progress after years of practise is based on how their brains
are wired and general karma.
So the technique isn't as effective as claimed? If everyone thinks that, why
do you get annoyed when someone points it out?
Then they blame the teacher for their misery and end up using an internet
forum to vent their anger. What a joke.
Misery? It's the people with sense of internal logical consistency I feel
sorry for round here. "If you were still a devotee after all that time,
striving for something you already had, I would honestly think that it was
maybe you that had a serious mental condition."
That we are already enlightened isn't Marshy's teaching, that's just Willy's
make believe to excuse his own lack of evolution. You guys ought to own the
knowledge and stop contradicting yourselves all the time. Steve even thinks
that he isn't the same as me and MJ even though he doesn't believe it all
either!
When was the last time a True Believer made sense round here? Go figure...

Over here in the USA, your prejudice is called "ageism" and it is unlawful.
Everyone is free tor say whatever they want, regardless of their age. The real
question is not what were they thinking over in Vlodrop - the question is, what
were you thinking watching Maharishi videos after twenty years of not getting
the enlightenment?

You still sound angry - probably because you didn't get enlightened in 5-7
years, or even 20.
