I know that you like to inspire yourself with positive

thoughts about Maharishi, and that's cool. But I couldn't

help but notice a phrase in your post, and how it's been

*missing* in Maharishi's "pronouncements" for some time

now.


In many, if not most, of the messages reposted here, the

name of Guru Dev rarely comes up. Instead, it's "*my*

teaching," "*my* TM technique," "*my* work." My, my, my.


Here's a project for you aspiring academics. Go back in

TM history and see when Maharishi's language changed

from doing his teacher's work to wanting to get credit

for his own. I would bet that about that time the TMO's

reputation in the world began its downward spiral.


Different intent, different effect.




One wonders if this was around the time he started slapping his  

assumed name, "Maharishi", on all the TMO product lines (e.g.  

"Maharishi Ayurveda, etc.).




Er, you mean back in 1971, with "Maharishi International University?"


And MMY explained very carefully why that was done when he did it. I love people who 

speak without any knowledge of the subject matter.


He makes excuses, it doesn't mean we have to buy into them. He just likes to see his name in lights: a university, various products, the world largest building, etc. etc., ad nauseam...
