But you are mischaracterizing the mechanics I outlined, or misunderstanding them. And its not a path for everyone, or most. Its for a few that want or need it. The key is intense focus on one Big thing, a project beyond oneself. All energy focussed on that one big "social", not personal, project. Attention on all other desires fades and the vasanas of such begin to dissipate. Then, and only then, is the second part relevant, the change phase (the rug pulling). > As for what Maharishi intends to teach, call me a romantic, > but I prefer the old progression of action, achievement and > fulfillment. And thats a good sadhana. But, I am just curious, what specific achievements do you feel will bring you fulfillment? If you can't specify the achievements do you feel will bring you fulfillment, then it seems like its an endless, never ending chain. > ------------------------ Yahoo!
