When I got back from TTC in '72 I still had the little slip of paper on which I had written down the mantras I had received from Maharishi when I first got them. When I first got back I was staying at my parents' home in Saint Louis. They had two dogs, one of them a big harlequin Great Dane. Sitting one day in their study, with the big dog asleep on the floor at the other side of the room, I took the slip out of my wallet, unfolded it, and looked over the list. As soon as I did that the Great Dane, lifted his head, focused his gaze immediately over my head and started to growl -- not so much angry, but more startled. I stopped looking at the list and after a moment or two he stopped growling and put his head back down but continued glancing under furrowed brows at the space above my head. I waited a minute or so until he closed his eyes again and then turned my attention back to my little list. Immediately he did the same thing, but this time he got to his feet and backed up a little closer to the door, looking over my head and growling a lot -- again more scared than mad. I stopped again and, after a bit, he did, too. He sat back down and looked at me like he didn't know what was going on. Me neither. We both sat there for a while looking at each other and then I looked at the list again. It was like flipping a switch; he started to growl again, looking at the same place. I folded it up, put it away in my wallet and he gave me another puzzled glance and walked out of the room.
