MJF, Bevan to date has played the game better than anyone in the movement. Without blood relation, personal wealth, or superior intellect, Bevan has steadily become most important in the TMO - yet, concurrently, the TMO has become progressively irrelevant over the past three decades, especially since an All things Vedic theme , and a game of let's pretend we're Indians predominate in the TM culture now. Bevan may find himself the successor to MMY in terms of absolute authority, yet the degree of irrelevancy of the TMO will mean that his position of authority in the TMO won't count for much in the world at large.

RE: [FairfieldLife] Re: What's happening to the $3Billion empire?
I agree with the assessment of Bevan's intellect. Bevan is where he is because he happened to be what MMY was looking for when MMY needed sidhi administrators. MMY wanted Canadians and an Australian for a group of administrators because he wanted them to be both British Victorian in bearing and less likely to be CIA. Bevan had the bearing and the Oxford education, without being from the demon serpent England. Over time, Bevan proved he was one of the few top persons in the TMO who would never take the limelight away from MMY, and so he lasted. ...but mountain doesn't move! --- On Tue, 7/29/08, Rick Archer [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: From: Rick Archer [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: RE: [FairfieldLife] Re: What's happening to the $3Billion empire?

And sure, I've seen him read speeches well that others have written, but even George Bush can do that. For that matter, so can Francis the Talking Donkey, and probably a lot better than either one.

RE: [FairfieldLife] Re: What's happening to the $3Billion empire?
Oops, I remembered it as Oxford. Thanks for the correction, Rick. Here's what Wikipedia has to say about Cambridge: The University of Cambridge (often Cambridge University), located in Cambridge, England, is the second-oldest university in the English-speaking world. It is regarded as one of the world's leading academic institutions. Academically, Cambridge is consistently ranked in the world's top 5 universities.[6][7] It has traditionally been an academic institution of choice of the Royal Family (King Edward VII, King George VI, Prince Henry of Gloucester, Prince William of Gloucester and Edinburgh and Prince Charles were all undergraduates) and has produced 82 Nobel Laureates to date. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/University_of_Cambridge Bevan also came to the only slightly less distinguished TM Center of Cambridge, the one time home to Vedic Atom Rick Archer. Unlike most high-up visitors who were in town for a short trip, Bevan actually did his sidhis program with us.

MUM just had it's largest class in many years, a lot of it people from foreign countries looking for a way into the US or jobs here. Plus there's been a lot of proselytizing from Donovan and David Lynch. Lynch along with Dr. Howard Settle are having to fund the sidhi program in FF to even get people to show up. Oh, and I guess you heard, the pundits finally showed up and were immediately enclosed in barbwire-surrounded digs. I'm pretty sure it was Vedic barbwire, so I wouldn't worry. :-)

Knowing I was a student of TM (at the time), it was conveyed to me in very gentle and apologetic terms. Of course, what's bizarre is that the type of person who would kill their guru--or at least be complicit in the murder--would probably not think twice about taking the ring off the finger of their teachers dead body. It brings a new twist to the saying scraping the bottom. Yet another bizarre twist in this whole possibility was Mahesh's paranoia about being poisoned himself. What was that about? Guilty conscience? We'll never know so it is good that, for histories sake, we at least know from several sources, that M. would stoop as low as to steal the jewelry off his dead masters corpse. It speaks volumes.

King Tony Nader is the closest to a successor in terms of authority, though who knows who controls all the money. I doubt any individual inherited any money.

The big movt trusts are offshore British now, though they may just be conduits into Indian accounts. It is a mystery to anyone who thinks about it why mmy was obsessed with raising money till the end even though he had plenty, but most sidhas in the tmo don't think about it or actually believe the mov't was really broke. I checked the web-site for MUM to see if the school still exists. I see that it does still exist. The web-site is very professional, and the programs look good do they still have enrollment at 500? MUM exists by attracting Africans into their business and computer programs - they get loans and a degree that leads to a green card so it's popular. They used to get a fair amount of indians and chinese but they wised up as to the quality. Very few 20-something americans go to school there.

Yes but even ruthless dictators want to improve the world in their own way - the question is why did mmy run the mov't into the ground by turning it into a silly cult, turn a blind eye to the lack of progress among his followers and hoard all the money? Clearly, meditation was beneficial to hippies. Along with short hair and conservative attire. It's true that young people with drug and other major problems probably benefited from their association with tm and mmy. TM was generally good for me, but the sidhis and the mov't itself were the worst things I've ever done for my physical, emotional and mental health.

Not to get all horror movie on you or anything, but based on the bulk, there is some possibility he ended up inside Bevan. Funny, but that would have had to happen years after their time together at Cambridge. When Bevan visited my sidhis course in September 1977, he was as svelte-looking as the 60's Beatles. Whether the weight was from the sidhis program messing up his metabolism, or from the stress of his position (a common TB belief), we'll never know. ...but mountain doesn't move! --- On Tue, 7/29/08, TurquoiseB [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: From: TurquoiseB [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: [FairfieldLife] Re: What's happening to the $3Billion empire?

The Dalai Lama holding hands with Mr. McCain published worldwide ? The uprising among Buddhist monks in Burma ? The surge of Crop Circles ridiculed by the same, or more likely; a general rise in world consciousness ? Me thinks the latter. Please exspect even more desperate and coordinated attempts from well known Buddhists to try to sow dissention. Since more and more individuals are beginning to live the fruit of Maharishis knowledge, these kinds of simple attacks from simpeltons will naturally follow.

Vaj wrote: Are you aware he was also a leading suspect in the murder of Guru Dev? Vaj just can't seem to resist spreading malicious rumors about the Maharishi. I wonder why that is? Is there something fundamentally wrong with Vaj? I wonder what it was that the Maharishi did to Vaj to cause Vaj to be having so much hatred in him. Dr. Pete would probably be knowing something about this. It's just amazing the things Vaj has to say, it's almost a form of hate-speech. Go figure.

Michael wrote: Guru Dev never gave him the ring. The ring was left on Guru Dev's corpse when the casket was lowered into the Ganges. MMY dove into the river, almost immediately to open the casket and remove the diamond ring from Guru Dev's finger. Aparently, he figured that somebody would rob the grave eventually, it might as well be him. This is outrageous! If the Marshy wanted the ring he could have just lifted it off the body during the nine hour train ride back to Kashi. Why would Marshy want to wait and then dive into the Ganges in front of everyone and open the cement casket to get at the ring?

I heard that when MMY sent Bevan to Cambridge to get his MA, he became the top student. That says something. Sal wrote: Sure, and remember how we also heard that GWB got better grades in college than Al Gore? His mother said so, and she wouldn't...lie, would she? Bevan, Al, or George can't hold a candle to all your accomplishments, Sal. What year did you say you graduated in?

BillyG wrote: I believe Guru Dev was buried in concrete before being lowered into the Ganges anyway... Yes, Billy, Michael has posted one of the most outrageous posts I've read here in years: Marshy loaded the Guru Dev's body onto a flat car and then rode the rails all the way back to Kashi, with a diamond ring on the Guru Dev's finger all the way - a trip that took over nine hours. Then, the Marshy, in front of what, 10,000 people, dives into the Ganges and swims to the bottom, pries open the lid of a concrete coffin, rips the ring off the Guru Dev's finger, and then comes to the top with his hand outstretched, and tells the crowd that he's got the ring and now he will buy hisself a what, a bungalow in the Upper Kashi?
