"The new phone book's here! The new phone book's here!" -- Steve Martin from "The Jerk"
Just got the latest edition of the "Total Health Catalog" from the good people at Maharishi Ayurveda today in the mail. Other than the photos accompanying various products of the usual happy, healthy, always-smiling robotrons (I always wonder whether the people they use are non-meditating models from stock photos or stock photos of meditators), the one item of note is that Guru Dev has gone pop-up! Yes indeedy, about 5 pages after the $7-a-drop Maharishi Honey selections are three pages of various "celebrative full-color glittering three-dimensional foldout cards WITH AUTOMATIC MUSIC PLAYER" (my emphasis) of one Brahmananda Saraswati in various regalia, dress and hairstyles (pre-Shankaracharya ordination crew-cut, with or without umbrella, etc.), the usual rainbows, doves, sanskrit, David- Bowie-glitter...and a price tag to boot: from $12 to $24. Take that, Hallmark! I think for the next issue they should come out with a limited edition "Incident at Annapurna" pop-up card featuring the Levi Butler murder.
