From: [email protected] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Mr. Magoo Sent: Thursday, March 08, 2007 9:31 AM To: [email protected] Subject: [FairfieldLife] A really silly comment......by none other than Mr. Knapp LSGM
"If you read the puja, however, what is actually happening is the initiator is bringing Guru Dev, the Maharishi's dead teacher, to "my awareness." To the Maharishi, Guru Dev was a still living presence in the Absolute. So I've often wondered if the Maharishi thought of the Puja as being a sort of possession of the initiator by Guru Dev's spirit?" Mr Knapp on TMBlog. I wonder where he got the idea that Maharishi thought Guru Dev was still a living presence IN the absolute? That does not even jive with Eastern metaphysics 101, the Guru Dev had reached 'Tat tvam asi' i.e. *Thou Art That*....it's too painful to go on it's so moronic, possessed?, gads! In the intro to Love and God, p. 11, with reference to Guru Dev, Maharishi says "We only pray Him to keep on guiding us," implying that he considers Guru Dev to still be playing a active role from wherever he is.
