As MMY has said - We are only able to love ourselves - not others.

This could be a little misleading to those not familiar with what MMY 
said, which was all love is directed toward the self, meaning the 
cosmic self is the only possible target of love because it is all that 
exists, in a variety of forms. It does not mean that we cannot love 
others, but that there really are no others for one whose awareness is 
expanded: the world is my family -- there is no otherness.

 Maharishi often made it clear that he didn't like the hangers-on. 
 Trouble was, he needed someone to help; hard-working as he was, he 
 simply couldn't do it all. So the hangers-on eventually morphed into 
 his rather loony organization which tries to shape things in its own 
 warped image of how things should be.
 
 It must be very sad for Maharishi to have such vision and to have to 
 depend upon such blindness. 

But it was the hangers-on in the 60s and 70s who gave MMY the
practical help he needed to start and spread the mov't.  Not just the
practical common sense information needed to start an operation, but
eventually also the 7 steps method of teaching, the scientific
research, the competent local operation of so many centers in the 70s
which brought so many people and resources into the mov't.  I'm amazed
at the extent and quality of support MMY had, esp in the 70s.  

It was MMY who personally took the mov't into hard sell of supernormal
abilities, the innumerable failed businesses - sidhalands, drilling
for oil in texas, fashion dresses, crumbling hotels galore, etc etc
and then the hard sell of the various branches of vedas, which once
again went well as long as Chopra was around, but is going nowhere as
long as MMY's hand picked fanatics are in charge, and now everything
under the sun in India, including used cars and fake currency.

I agree with many other posts on this topic that MMY hit the jackpot
with effortless meditation using bij mantras, but most everything else
of value in the mov't over the years seems to me to have come from the
enormous support and talent he received from the west, and most of the
nuttiness and cultishness from him and his hand picked and cultivated
inner circle.

A lot of intelligent, well-educated Meditators inkl. TM-Teachers 
build up the Movement in the West in the 60th and 70ths successfully, 
for free, using a lot of spare-time and money. I know what they did, 
because I was there. It is very sad if MMY do not appreciate what 
they did.

Maybe it's time to move on, every day is a new day. It's nice that 
people worked hard at some point in there life to try and build 
something but at some point you just have to forget yesterday and 
resume living at the now mark. 

The real point in life is to cultivate awareness of the source of 
life not build up an impressive history that will look good on your 
obituary. It's all pretty meaningless really, your only as good as 
you are at any given moment.

Of course he loves you and all the hardworking, honest people who have 
contributed to his movement. It's difficult to se that now, with the 
peculiar situation in the movement, but it will be shown at some point 
of life.
