After I'd done siddhi-s for a couple of weeks at home (1979) I one night woke 
up and noticed the skin of my arms smelled like, hmm...perhaps roses. 

According to one yoga-upaniSad (can't recall which one) accomplished yogis 
(paraphrasing) make women crazy of lust, or stuff. I guess that has lots to do 
with how they (the yogis) smell due to brahmacarya and stuff. 

[FairfieldLife] Bhoja-vRtti translation?

[cardemaister]

Has anybody got a translation of Bhoja-vRtti
(English, German, Swedish, Russian)?

Just noticed that Bhoja's comment for instance
on 'saMprajñaata-samaadhi' (YS I 17) is *way more* detailed
(16 rows in DN) than that of Vyaasa's (3 rows).

[FairfieldLife] Re: Book Banning

[Joe]

Well put Robert. So why is it OK for the TMO to bring in women shamans and 
seers that are non eastern-Indian for their "13 Indigenous Grandmother" 
conference but they boot out long time mediators, initiators, governors and 
siddhas for visiting Indian saints like Amma?

(A wise man here privately pointed out that the reason is obvious. The 13 
grandmothers represent no threat to TMO donations.)

I'm not sure what you have against Amma?

She seems like a good woman, who from what I understand is providing food for 
poor people in India.

She doesn't seem like the type of person who would be deceptive or secretive 
about anything in her work.

Just because the TM movement fears anyone or anything outside of it's many 
walls, doesn't mean we need to insult or confuse or confound the issue which is 
in play here.

It's called liberty, freedom of thought, authenticity.

Instead of splitting people apart, but bringing people together.

[FairfieldLife] Re: Tiger's Nest Monastery

[emptybill]

Either in Tigers nest or one that looks almost identical is a back wall
which is appears to be just the face of the mountain. However  it is
more subtle than that. Project through that apparent "wall" and you
appear in another area with a court-yard type of atrium having a Buddha
statue in the center.  Project out of the whole complex (it will appear
as if you are going through the mountain) and you will then appear in
one of the mandala sections of Shambhala.

FWIW - It doesn't matter what you believe. Just go in with innocent
attention  and a mind that is unattached to any results and if you have
just a modicum of subtle perception then you will start seeing that part
of the mandala. Explore and enjoy.

Of course for the veiled this is just psychophantic bovine 'scatology.
Doesn't matter. Have a nice day.   ~} :-) >

One of the most sensual woman I have ever been with, didn't shave her legs or 
her arm pits..
The relationship too place in Arizona, where it gets very hot...
She smelled very beautiful, used oils and perfumes, that were subtle...

Smell has a lot to do with sexual attraction...
They have done experiments with heterosexuals and homosexuals, that show that 
heterosexuals are attracted to the smell of the opposite sex, while homosexuals 
are attracted to the smell of the same sex...

I have heard that during the crusades, many women didn't bath for weeks or 
months at a time, because it turned on their men...

Suppose Maharishi was a virgin at the time, even though he was in his late 40's 
or early 50's...
Perhaps this woman was a virgin, or perhaps she had more sexual experience then 
him...

Perhaps they fell in love with each other...and there was a great expansion of 
heart in the relationship...
Romantic relationships involve more than just genitals...
It involves emotions, mind, heart and soul...

The problem is not that this happened...

The problem with the whole thing has more to do with the deception, and 
paranoia, which pervades the TMO...

[FairfieldLife] Re: Judith's book - I just read it

[yifuxero]

MMY's "Feet of Clay" didn't surprise me.  I already posted (a few years ago); 
the 2nd-hand account of MMY being seen in a sexual embrace through an open 
door; witnessed by the barber who worked at SIMSwho then told me around 
1972.
  Richard WillTex then asked me about the details - whether the door was 5, 10, 
etc. inches open; or some non-sensical gibberish about whether the wit had been 
to the Fiuggi course.
 How the f. do I know how many inches the door was open.  Apparently, wide 
enough to see what was going on inside the room!.  And no, I don't know what 
"position" the two were in.  Couldn't have been the Missionary since MMY is far 
from being a Missionary.

It's mentioned on page 125 - how did you
miss it? 

"Maharishi looks a little shy and
embarrassed. That could be be because
this is the first time he has seen me
in a short Western dress...my legs are
showing."

Were you thinking that the look on their 
faces was because of her shaved legs?

Or, because of her unshaved legs?

Maybe so, but at Poland Springs, 1971 
she wore a short Western dress. 

Everyone knows that Mahesh hates ladies 
to wear short skirts with their hairy 
legs showing. Apparently he was really
upset about this and so was Jerry.

It just doesn't make any sense.

Thanks for pointing out that it's in process, 
but she's had it for over a month, supposedly.
How long does it take for one book?

How many "published reviews" do you think there are
going to be on a self-published book, feste?

Exactly.  So I'm still not sure how you get that she
should wait for published reviews, when there are not
likely to be any.

They are not.  I believe, however, that a public library
in whichever community it is in is obligated to accept
any book in which members of that community might
be interested.  Otherwise what's the point of any public
library, if the only or main requirement for books to be
accepted is that they pass some arbitrary smell-test,
the rules of which are set up by the people who work
there?

> I think there is a strong case for placing it in the library, but I can also

You make some good points, feste~~but I personally doubt
there was much "professional caution" involved,
more likely cultist protectiveness of MMY's image.
And the librarian or anyone else is entitled to their
personal feelings~~they just aren't entitled to foist them
on the community in a facility owned by the community.
They have the good fortune to work in a public facility~~
using those positions as a way of enforcing morality
or any particular mind-set is a violation of their agreements.
Which is undoubtedly one of the main reasons the book
is now in processing.

You are both too kind since this culture clash is so pregnant on arrival that 
it writes itself.

On my re-read I have to deduct two points for missing a chance to refer to her 
scarf as a "Hermes" rather then the lamo "multi-colored" which I then use again 
for her dress.  Double lamo!

What should her dress be made of...silk is so obvious...oh not a dress at all 
but some skin tight, butter soft black doeskin leather pants with triangles of 
silver fabric (matching the jacket) sewn in, that was custom made for her by 
that amazing Moroccan seamstress who has that tiny shop on Rue Tisserand and 
whose waiting list is six months long for people who don't include a few 
American hundred dollar bills with their order, and which are never deducted 
from the final bill. 

Meanwhile, Tony is wearing something off the rack that makes his shoulders 
looks lightly lumpy and smells faintly of sesame oil, the same substance that 
makes his hair always look as dirty and matted as an undercover cop hooking up 
his first buy. 

Writing about those two is is like eating vinegar potato chips and chasing it 
with a swig of Czech Pilzner I tell ya!

It sure doesn't make sense, since the things you mention above were not in the 
book.  She wore saris in India, not miniskirts.  Altho miniskirts were what 
most young women wore in those days.  There was no talk of shaving legs at all, 
not sure where you got that image at all.  

Willy, it is clear that this topic  is  uncomfortable for you.  So, don't think 
about it anymore.  And don't read posts about it.  You have every right to 
ignore it, disbelieve it, hate it. I have no problem at all with people 
ignoring the book entirely or doubting the contents.  Some people believe it 
and can incorporate the shadows into their belief system. But for others, that 
does not work. They want and perhaps need a more black and white/good vs evil 
way of looking at their Guru. That is fine, I think different people thrive in 
different ways. The main thing is that each of us finds what works best for us. 
 For some it may mean moving to a different path. But  I assume you love 
Maharishi and all the knowledge you have received.  Good. I don't think he 
needs anyone to defend him.

[FairfieldLife] my letter to Ms Huggins at library in Fairfield

[wayback71]

Dear Ms. Huggins,
I am a long-time Governor of TM and still am devoted to the practice  of TM
and the Knowledge of Maharishi.  I just read the book, Robes of Silk, Feet
of Clay, and wrote about it on FairfieldLife.  

You should know that in the late 1970's I heard rumors that Maharishi had
been, for a period of time, involved with some women.  I heard these rumors
from several reliable sources.  I was shocked and upset, but somehow - over
the years- I integrated the possibility that it was very likely true.  So
reading Judith's book was not a shock to me.  I could focus on the the
positive things she had to say.  I recognize that Maharishi was a great
Master and put so many of us on a powerful spiritual path. But I also have
understood that he made some poor decisions, or mistakes, as well.  I love
him and his teaching anyway, although I also feel so sorry for the turmoil
and hurt that these young women went through.  As always in life, things are
not black and white, but mostly shades of gray.  This reality is not easy to
accept, especially given our background in an organization that talks about
the bliss we are entitled to.  Nevertheless, speaking the truth usually
results in healing and the open flow of knowledge,  emotion, and energy.  

Regarding whether the Fairfield Library will carry this book, I would not be
worried. Those who want to read it will find a way to do so even if you
refuse to put it on the shelves.  They are entitled to come to their own
conclusions about what it says. People don't need protection from a book
like this.  And wondering about the veracity of the book will only increase
ambivalence and anxiety, and prolong the whole uneasy process.  

My FairfieldLife post is as follows:

It's all there, Joe, when you read

Why would a gal at a yoga camp shave

Jerry and a celibate monk like Mahesh,

Maybe so, but it got all soiled up when Judith 
climbed in with her sweaty palms all over 
Mahesh's little body? 

Maybe Jemima Pittman had to wash the silk sheets
- I wonder what she said when she got a whiff 
of that semen and body odor. Yuck!

Jemima probably knew they weren't just checking
the tweets and the email, right?

But, the question is, why did all you shysters
keep it a secret for so long - apparently 
almost all the inner circle knew about it. That
makes you all frauds of the lowest sort, Rick.

At least you tried to sound the alarm. But you
don't have much to say about Amma's private sex
life, or lack thereof. Why is that?

Re: [FairfieldLife] Re: The theives that run America

Point is John they are being overcompensated.  It's not THAT hard of 
job.  It's basically and "old boys" club of fraternity brothers and 
closed to people like you and me.  At the company I worked for the CEO 
hired one of his college buddies who did next to nothing in his VP 
position yet got a lot of stock options and bonuses.

Anyone can fire somebody or lay off workers.  I've fired people.  Should 
I be making 10,000 times more money than you?

We are creating a "landed gentry".  Something that many of our ancestors 
came here to get away from.  Better that the entire economy collapse 
bringing down even these pigs than to live under the tyranny of a bunch 
of robber barons.  Then we can start over on an even playing field.

So, you're still angry for Judy waxing you the

The only thing that's frightening about Judith's
sad story is the part about doing it with a 
midget guru on the floor, rolling around on a 
tiger skin, under a picture of Guru Dev, with 
another boy in the same room. That's really 
weird!

But, I must admit that the thought of doing
it with a big sweaty girl, in a shack with no
bathroom, out in the middle of nowhere, on a 
hot dark night in India, in front of a gaggle 
of prudes waiting outside the door, would 
cause me to pause and think twice.

But Judith seems to actually brag about it,
like it's some kind of spiritual thing to
screw a midget guru in India. But it's very
consistent for someone who would pal around 
with Conny Larrsen.

But to actually write a book about it?

Maybe so, after she shaved her legs so she 
could prance around in front of Mahesh wearing
a mini-skirt. That probably really impressed
Jerry and Nandakishore! LOL!

But, it's even more stunning, if true, that 
you bought into the TMO and worked for fifteen 
years promoting the Mahesh's nefarious agenda.

I'll tell you what's frightening, Joe. That you

about someone's private sex life. Go figure.

[FairfieldLife] Re: Judith's book - I just read it

[Joe]

Exactly. Some people here have written me privately asking why I even bother to 
interact with Willy. I tell them its the written equivalent of thumb 
twiddling...something that I do on occasion to amuse myself by turning Willy's 
own phrases back on him. As usual with people like this, he loves to dish his 
drivel out but can't take it when it's turned back on him.

Regarding Judith, anyone who knew her (or just sees her photos in the book) 
knows that she was a very beautiful woman, just stunning. I think this may be 
what frightens Willy so much.

That's precisely the reasons why CEOs are hired--to make money for the 
corporations. If they can't make money, they are quickly fired by the board of 
directors.

But they do make tons of money for firing others.  As they say, the higher the 
risk, the higher the return.

Are you thinking Mahesh had a bed in living 
room?

If you had read the book instead of skimmed it, you would have read that he
had a bed. I've been in his bedroom in a few locations. He always had a nice
bed with silk sheets.

 

[FairfieldLife] Re: Too Fat to Fight

[John]

This is a good point you're making.  Also, the insurgents who are fighting the 
US military cannot win against superior technology.  As such, they have to 
fight through stealth and political methods.

But the American top brass know this.  That's why the US special forces are 
being deployed in Iraq, Afgahnistan and elsewhere.  These special forces are 
motivated, asymmetric in fighting style, and are lethal.

Hmmm...well, seeing as how she's been librarian

anything similar might have come up in the past,
I'm not quite so optimistic.  I'm betting the book

Wizzing by in a beige convertible perhaps?  All giving the side to side hand 
wave popular with the British Royals and beauty queen winners?  Fortunately I 
have the car bugged...

"Tony, Tony, Tony" rasped Mrs. Nader, her wavy chestnut hair and multicolored 
scarf trailing behind her in their beige Austin Martin convertible.  Two kids 
sit strapped into car seats riveted by the dancing prince and princess on the 
built-in DVD screen.  Maybe Ariel, maybe that other one.

"My little boy with his little crown playing dress up like one of the Parisian 
couture boys who used to fawn over me whenever I shopped on Rue Ampère.  Those 
days are long gone now that we are here in this dust bowl."  She brushes off 
the shoulder of her silver metallic lame jacket in disgust. "Merde" she hisses 
for the hundredth time today. "I am coated in the dust of pig shit and it will 
never come out of my D and G (which she pronounces Day and jay).

"What are you saying dear?" Tony realizes he has not been pretending to listen.

"Dolce and Gabbana you twit.  You haven't heard a word I've said have you."

Tony "Of course I have, something about missing your fag hag buddies in Paris 
right?"

"Don't even start with me.  What else was I supposed to do while you sit in 
your room with your eyes closed?  Meditating on what?  What is so wonderful 
behind your eye lids that you have to avoid your family for most of the day?" 
She readjusts her dress, smoothing out the multicolored fabric with perfectly 
manicured hands.  Her nails are modestly short, just beyond her finger tips, 
but the rich maroon color is flawless.  The thought floats through her mind 
that she will not be able to find anyone like her beloved Parisian nail girl 
Tai May here to keep them in this condition. In Iowa they probably only stock 
nail polish with sparkles, the kind little girls, strippers and pop stars on 
coke wear, with names like "Totally Awesome" instead of color shades.

Tony let's his smile drop a bit while he attempts to appease his wife.  After 
all, he has gotten his way against all odds.  He has brought his whole family 
to Iowa where he is the King.  This was not how he was viewed in Paris outside 
their somewhat dingy TM center that smelled of curry like a Pakistani take-out 
joint all the time.  In the past initiation days would break up the baked-in 
smell with sandalwood but it has been quite a while since they had those kinds 
of initiation numbers through the center.  Now roasted cumin seeds and 
asafoetida had won. Tony's wife had refused to go with him after she found out 
to her horror that the smell clung to her clothes and everything needed two 
trips to the dry cleaner to get what she called "that cab driver smell" out of 
her clothes. 

"Cheer up dear, this weekend we are going to a grand celebration for my return 
and you can dress up the way you like. Why don't you wear that gorgeous dress 
we bought just before leaving Paris?  You know the Orange one?"   Tony winced a 
bit as he remembered his shock at getting the bill for his bribe to smooth over 
his wife's displeasure at leaving for Iowa.  Little did he know that this was 
only the fist of four dresses that she had arranged to have shipped to her in 
Iowa.  The matching shoes alone equaled the price of that one dress.  She would 
not be bought off so cheaply!

The flamboyant shop owner Toulouse was more than happy to be her accomplice, 
holding her husband's credit card number for future purchases.  "Just a text or 
a tweet Daling and I will rush you a care package from your favorite 
designers" he cooed the last time he saw her.  It was not her ass that he 
followed with his eyes as the King and Queen of fantasy land walked out the 
door. Toulouse had heard rumors about them being some type of royalty but he 
had automatically assumed it was a reference to role reversal sex play.  His 
gaydar had gone off like a fire alarm when he met Tony and he secretly wondered 
if he might be invited to one of their parties someday.

Mrs. Nader's face takes on a hard edge. She moves her jaw so little while 
speaking that she resembles a ventriloquist as she says, "Yes I am sooo looking 
forward to having that beastly Bevan stare at my teets all night while 
slobbering in his food trough.  If you were really a King you would have had 
his head cut off for putting his hand on my ass during the last "celebration!"  
Doesn't he get enough from those pasty-faced m

Not the whole book, Joe, just the part about 
Judith having sex with a stinking, midget 
skin-boy in India.

So, I could be wrong about Judith's hairy legs,
but with no bathroom, it is probably true. 

That is, unless Judith went down to the Ganges 
and shaved her legs there in front of the local 
sadhus and then trucked back up the hill to see
Mahesh - not very likely. 

So, the story about her sneaking into Mahesh's 
house in the middle of the night to have sex on
the floor with him just doesn't ring true for 
me. That's the part that I think she made up.

Have you ever been to India?

Judith's book seems to make you extremely upset and afraid Willy-boy.

What are you afraid of? Are you afraid of women Willy? Maybe it would be
better if you spent some time in your cemetery to settle down a bit and
ponder what it is about women that disturbs you so.

Willy occasionally makes intelligent comments, so I know he's capable of it,
but then he reverts back to this idiotic nonsense, which blows his
credibility overall. Many people block all his posts.

Maybe so, but her account of her 'sex affair'
just doesn't ring true for me. Have you ever 
tried to have sex with a gal in India? Just 
walking in the middle of the night to another 
house you can break out in a big sweat. 

Can you imagine doing it on the floor, with a 
gal that has not bathed in weeks, who has 
really hairy legs, while a skin-boy listened 
in the same room, with a Jemima Pittman and a 
Nandakishore skulking around the front door?

Nobody is that horney!

If a guy could pull that off, after working a
sixteen-hour day, I'd be really impressed. 

If true, this guy Mahesh was awesome! 

So, it doesn't sound very romantic to me, even 
if they were alone inside a dark, dank cave 
doing it in front of a picture of Guru Dev 
with a candle light and Sandalwood incense. 

It's just preposterous on it's face (no pun
intended). I mean a gal that big on top of a
guy that small - she could have killed him!

Go figure.

[FairfieldLife] The Indivisible Unity

[steve.brennon]

The Indivisible Unity
 
Unity, as used here, means joining, merging with, becoming and being it.  
Indivisible means that it cannot be separated from or broken down any more into 
something else or less than; no more extraction from it can happen, for if it 
did then it could not exist. Thus it is the absolute basic that it can be. 
 
Ever since I discovered that Indivisible Unity and the knowing there many years 
ago then everything that I have ever done since that time, of no time movement, 
has been done for my SELF and the principle of BEING which it lives and knows 
there. That is to say that the personality lives for IT, my SELF, and what it 
IS, and not for the personality in space and time, and even though that has to 
be attended to, as does the physical body. It is the absolute principle of 
BEING and it becomes ones living philosophy for living life.
 
That very few people have any idea of what one is talking about when talking of 
it, in that Indivisible state of Being, then there is nothing which one can do 
about that. Either they know by having been there or they don't. So not much 
point talking about it. If they know it then they can talk about it and 
describe it; but if they don't know it then they cannot. And that is the way 
that it is. But knowing it, then nothing else is needed. And when nothing else 
is needed then  there comes the unity of all things, in Time and in Eternity; A 
Union of Essence, Principle and Form in the observer and the observed. And then 
it is done. Books and teachers are not a substitute and it cannot be given to 
another. They have to tap into it for themselves. All the talking in the world 
will not find it, and neither can all the talking in the world prove that it is 
there, and there to be found. But it is. I have only ever found four people who 
have known it. How many have you found? It must be very rare.

FFL Ledger hell...call the major TV networks.

But this is IMO a last-ditch strategy. As I said
in an earlier post, this poor woman is at this point
still caught in "startle" mode, and hasn't had time
to think things through. 

Once she has, if she then goes for Gotta Protect
Maharishi instead of intellectual freedom, *then*
take it public. Don't pull out the "big guns" until
you need them. After all, if you're honest, a few
years ago most of you would have reacted the exact
same way. Have some compassion for the person just
starting to think about issues you've thought 
about for some time now.

That's the way I'm thinking, although she's had the book for over a month
and apparently hasn't bothered to read it. She has 'till next Wednesday
morning to get it on the shelves or a letter goes to the Ledger.

A female doctor, stalking her ex, tries to break into
his house by sliding down his chimney and dies there.

I can't think of a more perfect example of the karma
of being a stalker than this. The stalker does it all
to themselves; the stalkee is not even involved, and
doesn't even notice the sad drama the stalker has 
put herself through until he notices the smell.

FFL Ledger hell...call the major TV networks.

But this is IMO a last-ditch strategy. As I said
in an earlier post, this poor woman is at this point
still caught in "startle" mode, and hasn't had time
to think things through. 

Once she has, if she then goes for Gotta Protect
Maharishi instead of intellectual freedom, *then*
take it public. Don't pull out the "big guns" until
you need them. After all, if you're honest, a few
years ago most of you would have reacted the exact
same way. Have some compassion for the person just
starting to think about issues you've thought 
about for some time now.

One of the reasons terrorism is winning in most 
locations on the planet where it is being employed
as a tactic is that it forces American troops into
a situation where war is fought hand-to-hand, not
with a joystick, a la Xbox. 

Most of the new, hyperspiffy weapons that the US
produces to help it win the "war on terror" are 
Xbox technology. Sound weapons that knock people
out or kill them at a distance, drones that fly
by remote control and hopefully kill the enemy
while the operator is safe behind some computer
console eating a peanut butter and jelly sandwich.

All that an "enemy" has to do to win in such a 
situation is to hide until they can provoke a 
hand-to-hand battle. In books aimed at training
samurai the same strategy is talked about -- "When
your enemy stops training every day for battle, 
you have already won the battle."

War is a sad situation. Pretending it's fought like
a computer game, and that those figures falling over
and screaming in your computer screen aren't human
beings but computer creatures akin to rabbits being
shot in a WII game makes it even sadder.

There was a kind of nobility in the samurai or
warrior ethic. There is none in fighting with 
a joystick.

Indeed, this situation brings up the issue of 
professional ethics vs. cult ethics.

One can assume that this librarian is smart and
capable, and a person who would be shocked and
affronted if someone thought her capable of 
"book banning." And yet she thought of it.

If nothing else, however it turns out this situation
provides an opportunity for the librarian in question
to learn a little something about indoctrination, 
and how *anyone* can be taught over the years to 
feel that they have to "protect" someone or some-
thing that doesn't need protecting, much less from
someone telling a different story than the person/
organization tells.

We see this reaction here on FFL on a regular basis.
And IMO it's almost always a "startle reflex," some-
one posting a quick, not-well-thought-out reaction
to some criticism of Maharishi or TM or the TMO. 
What causes the "startle reflex" is IMO two things:
First, they've been trained to react this way, 
although most have forgotten this or never noticed
the training as it was taking place. Second, the
people exhibiting the "startle reflex" *feel*
startled because many of them have lived in an 
artificial, controlled environment in which the
need *to* react to "protect" Maharishi, TM or the
TMO rarely if ever arise -- no one is allowed to
criticize Maharishi in their environment. Thus they 
are sometimes caught unawares by criticism, espec-
ially if they are new to FFL and thus new to the 
*lack* of "improper thought banning" here.

But for this woman, living as she does in the
heart of artificial, controlled environment,
Fairfield, Iowa, this may be one of the first
times she's actually *encountered* free thinking
and free speech with regard to Maharishi, in a 
way that affects her personally and her profession. 
So she is probably still in "startle" mode. I hope 
she reacts well to the well-thought-out reviews 
being sent to her and comes through it all having 
learned a little something -- about free speech, 
about the suppression of free speech, about herself, 
and about how to deal with opinions you may not like.

The Gotta Protect Maharishi Reflex is, after all,
not really *about* Maharishi. It's really a Gotta
Protect My Fantasies About Maharishi Reflex.

The man's daid. Nothing said about him is going 
to affect him; he's somewhere dealing with his own
karma as we speak, and what others say about that
karma isn't going to affect shit. But is *does*
affect those who have placed him and his memory 
on a kind of pedestal on which sit "the perfected
ones," "the enlightened," Those Who Are Beyond
Fucking Up.

That's a tough one for a lot of people to get past.
Having bought into the TMO enlightenment=perfection
meme, and *hoping for it to appear someday in their
own lives*, they can react strongly to anything that
suggests that the meme itself is faulty or wrong.
If presumed enlightenment didn't seem to make MMY
perfect, then it ain't gonna make *them* perfect,
either. Big shock to many. Inspiring of "Oh fuck,
did I waste my life following a lie" kinda thoughts.

IMO it's so much more simple to have never promoted 
the enlightenment=perfection meme in the first place.
Selling a lie (or selling false hope, based on
nothing but hearsay) is always a mistake, because
reality has a tendency to sneak up and bite you
on the ass, causing cognitive dissonance.

I guess what I'm suggesting is that FFLers not
rag overmuch on this poor librarian. If you are 
a veteran of FFL, you've gone through these bouts
of cognitive dissonance many times over the years.
Chances are she hasn't. She may need some time to
"figure things out" and decide which wins -- her
own sense of professional and personal ethics
with regard to censorship, or her "loyalty" to
Maharishi. I'm hoping for the former.
