The word "mahaa" has 2 syllables. The word "RSi" has 2 syllables, too (R-Si). (tankero: tuu tii tu törtti tuu...) When they are combined the result is 3 syllables: the second vowel of "mahaa" is shortened and the vocalic (syllabic) R of "RSi" changes to its consonantal counterpart: maharSi (ma-ha-rSi?) > > TM therefore uses less energy and is more efficient than Buddhism. > ------------------------ Yahoo!
