Why should we know ? It works. Then also it would just confuse the rather simple minds of the western Governors. To study the shastras demands a rather mature nervous-system seldom to be found among western TM-teachers. Keep it simple was and is the more effective way. And how much time would it take to learn all those details ? Maharishi was and is in a hurry to bring the New Light, the Golden Age into this world, for which he will be remembered. There is no time for such studies when Maitreya and The Masters of Wisdom are "knocking at the door." Heaven wil walk on earth - in this generation." - Maharishi Who knows if this would have happened if we spent years studying the shastras instead of teaching.
