[FairfieldLife] Re: Conversations withe Maharishi: The normality of Brahman
FW: Dear Friend, The two-volume set Conversations with Maharishi by Dr. Vernon Katz has been the most popular set of books published by Maharishi University of Management Press. The fascinating dialogues between Maharishi Mahesh Yogi and Dr. Katz not only provide the reader with profound insights into and analyses of the heights of human consciousness but also offer a rare glimpse into the flow of knowledge between Maharishi and a beloved student. Dr. Katz first began working with Maharishi in the early 1960s on Maharishi’s translation of commentary on the first six chapters of the Bhagavad-Gita. Maharishi appreciated Dr. Katz’s keen intellect and the penetrating questions that brought out wave upon wave of knowledge from Maharishi. The conversations in these books center around the Brahma Sutras, a key text of the timeless wisdom of Vedanta. Many of the insights elicited by the inquiries of Dr. Katz can be found only within the pages of these books. The chief editor of this two-volume series is Dr. Susan Brown, a faculty member of the college of Maharishi Vedic Science at Maharishi University of Management. Dr. Brown found the experience of working with Vernon on his manuscript exhilarating. “Vernon’s books of conversations allow us to listen in while Maharishi unfolds the supreme wisdom of life in the Brahm Sutra. The many hours spent in such conversations with Maharishi honed Vernon’s already refined heart and mind — which we now enjoy both in working with Vernon and in the precious fruits of his time with Maharishi, which he is so generous to share.” Maharishi University of Management Press is pleased to announce a special offer for those who purchase both volumes together. We will take 6 dollars off the price of each book...a 15 percent discount.* I am sure you will find these two volumes to be among your most treasured of books that have recorded the timeless wisdom of Maharishi.

His sweet and lovable nature was one thing-but his powerful and highly discriminating intellect and his repeated enquiries to Maharishi inspired Maharishi so much.

And Maharishi loved him for it.
