Peter, answer some points for a change instead of barging in like some fundamentalist in denial.
""The Sri Sri Ravi Shankar Vidya Mandir Trust and the Government of Orissa signed a Memorandum of Understanding on December 18, 2006 to establish a full-fledged multidisciplinary university near the state capital, Bhubaneswar within two or three years. The goal of the university would be to provide holistic education that is firmly embedded in Indian culture and ethos to the global leaders of tomorrow. Admission into the university will be based on merit alone, which will be assessed based on an entrance examination. Admission into the proposed varsity will be open to Indian as well as foreign nationals. It will be designed to cater to the needs of 1,500 faculty members, an equal number of non-academic staff members, and 15,000 students. The proposed university will impart postgraduate education in various disciplines to approximately 15,000 Indian and foreign students. These disciplines will include both traditional Indian as well as modern fields of study.""- wikipedia.org/wiki/Ravi_shankar_university And so Peter Sutphen is saying that : ""anyone who seriously believes that such a project by Sri Sri Ravi Shankar is possible has spent way too many years drinking the koolaid. That being said, if you approach your involvement in this as, on one hand, total absurdity, and on the other hand, as something your mind can do to break all boundaries, then fine. It will be your "controlled folly" to borrow a term from Carlos Castenada. But failure to recognize the absurdity of this and to delude yourself into thinking that it will actually occur without acknowleding the absurdity of it just makes your mind and intent very, very weak. Why let Sri Sri Ravi Shankar enslave you? Does he have to hammer nails into your palms to get you to wake-up to your own spiritual intent?"" --- In [email protected], Peter <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > > The whole thing is just absurd and anyone who > seriously believes that such a project is possible has > spent way too many years drinking the koolaid.
