Salyavin, Son for as intellectually negative as you seem want to be scholarship loves this kind of material in collections safe-kept, accessioned, and archived for use in later research as to what was going on. Like is going on now with the study of primary documents of Mormonism and Mormons. Or Yogananda's movement. Vivekananda. Emerson and Thoreau. It becomes extremely interesting as social science study in to the progression of human nature. Academically it is important to save the source material now for later use in scholarship while it is together whole and before it gets parted out or edited. -Buck in the Dome Oh I see! They're creating a sociological study of outrageous belief systems, I can understand that. I forwarded John Hagelin's last yagya scam video to a few knowledgeable people and they thought it was hilarious. Somebody should definitely be cataloguing this stuff so a study could be done into how abuses of scientific principles are passed off as justification for religious beliefs and, most importantly, screwing donations out of the faithful. I mean it most sincerely. The people should be warned. Can the new TMO since the passing away of Maharishi afford ($) to keep the archives of Maharishi in Vlodrop? It might be better to place them in a public institution, like a special collection at Harvard or Oxford libraries or some place like that for safe-keeping for future generations.

Unless the boiler needs a bit of fuel. I suspect you are over-valuing the objective quality of the material. I think the preservation of beloved religious texts is up to the devotees of the groups concerned. It's shame that Marshy didn't follow Elron's footsteps and tax everyone 20% of their wages like in $cientology as the TMO would have enough money for a nice little library by now. All the publications the UK TMO ever made are in dusty boxes in the loft in Skelmersdale. I know because I put them there. There doesn't seem to be any enthusiasm for public display. I'm sure Maharishi would have said we should carry the knowledge inside us and demonstrate it with our glowing and enlightened persona's. To that end, I'm quitting work early and going down the pub.
