--Richard, nitpicking the details won't change the overall conclusion. MMY has some chinks in his armor, and he's by no means "impeccable" in the Castaneda-ian sense. Who are some impeccable Gurus? 1. Guru Dev 2. Ramana Maharshi 3. Namkhai Chogyal Rinpoche 4. Sri Aurobindo 5. Possibly SSRS 6. Ammachi, and the various "Divine Mothers"; such as Karunamayi. I don't see anything wrong with counting the numbers of people Amma hugs. 7. Various Sages of the past: Ramakrishna, Sakyamuni Buddha and countless Sages of Tibet and India. 8. Jesus, definitely!.
We can construct a very lengthy list of impeccable Gurus, but I wouldn't put MMY on it. Nevertheless, the technique of TM is "ppppuuurrrrffffeeeecccctttt".! - In FairfieldLife@yahoogroups.com, "Richard J. Williams" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > > Richard J.
