No, actually no TM TB, "official" or not, would use Chopra as a vehicle for their message, as I said. The TB line considers Chopra an apostate and a betrayer of Maharishi. Moreover, the only TB line *I've* ever heard about the Beatles leaving is that they did so because they were "unstressing" and believed a false story about MMY boffing a female follower. I've never heard any TB suggest they were thrown out because they were doing drugs. > You see a similar thing in Neocon politics where rather than > revealing the truth about global warming, you create ambiguities > so people can believe there is no real scientific consensus--"we > need more research". Of course this will be a non sequitur for you. I'm not sure you know what a non sequitur is. What you just said is not, of course, a non sequitur, it's just wildly off base in this context. ------------------------ Yahoo!
