What motivation is that? I mean, MAPI, owned by a non-profit foundation, is the only herbal company that I know of that funds peer-reviewed research into its products. The other Maharishi organizations are known to have made bad investments over the years and have had to scramble to pay mortgages and so on. Which motivation is everyone going on about here that is so suspect? THe one where they sell organic honey from Brazil and, according to the original guidelines, use it to feed the poor fo Brazil?
