After MMY made that "stupid" crack about sinning the guy refused to sit down and told MMY that he would not accept that answer. He kept on pushing and MMY became more and more cavalier and dismissive. Then all the lights went out for a few minutes and MMY joked about stress release. The lights came back on the guy at the mic was crying, but would not budge. It was getting very, very uncomfortable for everybody. The discomfort reached some sort of a peak, like a fever breaking and then MMY completely shifted. His whole demeanor changed and he said, "All right" and turned and looked at the guy and then went on to give a beautiful talk about devotion, completely satisfying the guys question. When MMY had finished, the guy at the mic asked if the tape of MMY's answer could be played at every TTC. And MMY said, "No. When you dig for water and get oil, you will not appreciate it and just throw it away." A rather amazing night with Maharishi, the cosmic coyote kali yuga guru, on a cool evening in LaAntilla, Spain in early December 34 years ago. > __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!?
