You need to organize an art faire, including your speciality: horses. Question: 
are Unicorns the same species as horses? Or not. Let's see some of your horse 
pics (photos).

 Yes, I think it is lovely that the different Satsangs in town are honoring 
 Maharishi this way now.
 
 
  Please forward this to all satsangs... 
  Maharishi's Birthday Meditations.  
  In Fairfield.
  
  
  
   In particular I would like to suggest that we celebrate Maharishi in the 
   best possible way by having every Meditator in Fairfield at group 
   programs on both the morning and evening of January 12th.

-I think they're just rascals; although ymmv. What matters is the possible
element of antisocial behavior. Ramakrishna dressed up as a woman on a number
of occasions but was famous also for uplifting (in a pure Spiritual sense),
many prostitutes of Calcutta; so his bazarre behavior could be a form of
empathy or pure Rasa.
...
As for most of them however, just rascals.

And there is no Crazy Wisdom tradition - that was just made
up by some drunk, boozing womanizers.

Crazy wisdom, also known as holy madness, is a manifestation of certain
spiritual adepts where they behave in unconventional, outrageous, or
unexpected fashion. It is considered to be a manifestation of spiritual
accomplishment evident in such Dharmic Traditions as Sanatana Dharma, Tantra,
Vajrayana, Zen amongst other traditions such as Sufi, Bonpo, Taoism and
Russian Orthodoxy for example and is often evident in human cultural
spiritual universals such as shamanism. Crazy wisdom is also a modality of
communication, in which the adept employs esoteric and seemingly unspiritual
methods to awaken an aspirant's consciousness

The Holy Adi Shankracharya also described that an enlightened man may act
like a Jadvat (like a inert thing), a Balvat (like a child), an Unmat (like a
manic) or a Pissachvat (ghost).

bogus.)

Let me get this straight: the Ramayana is a type of global metaphor for 
physiological processes; all linked with approprite verses from the Vedas.
...
Only to portray one'self as an expert, we delete the (a) on Veda and 
Ramayana, getting The Ved, and The Ramayan.
...
Likewise, to be one of the cccooolll, upscale TMO members, we delete 
the middle i in Maharishi, getting Maharshi.
...
But otoh, the real nerds like Charlie Lutes said The Maharishi, so he was 
doubly out of the picture.
...
Now I can quote it with the best of them: The Ved, the Ved; the Ramayan.  
Neat. Or, Everything, Vedic. Everything Vedic, Everything Vedic (to be 
accompanied with the MMY Mudra - a movement with the riright hand mimicing the 
shopping of vegetables, but without the vegetables.

  Speaking the sweet truth is a behavioral rasayana. By following the 
  traditional values, of one's cultural heritage, Maharishi believed one's 
  path in life presented fewer roadblocks to well being, good health and 
  enlightenment. Behavioral rasyanas are universally fundamental to all human 
  beings in all cultures. The behavioral rasyana map of a well traveled road 
  describes the territory, not the consciousness of the traveler. 
  
  Behaviors and attitudes to maximize:
  
  Love
  Compassion
  Speech that uplifts people
  Cleanliness
  Charity and regular donation
  Religious observance
  Respect toward teachers and elders
  Being positive
  Moderation and self-control, especially with regard to alcohol and sex
  Simplicity
  
  Behaviors and attitudes to be avoided:
  
  Anger
  Violence
  Harsh or hurtful speech
  Conceit
  Speaking ill of others behind their backs
  Egotism * Dishonesty
  Coveting another's spouse or wealth
  
  http://www.mapi.com/ayurveda_health_care/newsletters/behavioral_rasayana.html
  
  Behavioral rasyanas describe the basic rules of how we treat each other as 
  human beings. A society devoid of such behaviors descends into chaos. 
  FFLife is a chaotic antimatter smashing machine of behavioral rasyanas, 
  cynically obliterating, ridiculing, any sacred cow daring to lift its head 
  from grazing in the pastures of social convention. Other than no porn, you 
  are free to be as abusive and as childish as you like on one day and a 
  warrior for truth, justice and sacred cows the next day. 
  
  I'm not holding myself up as a model of always treating everyone with 
  absolute fairness. I don't, nobody does. I prefer less chaos and more 
  fairness in how in how we treat each other on FFLife, I just don't expect 
  it. 
  
  IMO the folks who have a longer check list in the positive column of 
  behavioral rasyanas are more capable of speaking the sweet truth. They 
  consistently treat others fairly. Just as reliably, self-centered abusive 
  assholes with a long list of behaviors in the negative column don't give a 
  fuck about treating others respectfully and are incapable of speaking the 
  sweet truth. So sayeth raunchydog, not so sweetly.
