I have met Chopra a few times by participating in his seminars. Last time I think it was in Stockholm in 2002. I like him a lot. I think he is a person of great integrity and insight. I have a really good rapport with him. In the late 80's my participation in the TMO was mainly because of him. I lost my interest in the TMO, when Chopra left and I saw how the movement treated him. I think the vehemence is actually envy. Irmeli ------------------------ Yahoo!
