  Well your friend is clearly just unstressing and should
  stop spreading these negative rumors.
 
  Besides the scriptures state that one man attaining
  Brahman spreads enlighenment throughout his family,
  so clearly Maharishi's nephews are also enjoying a
  high degree of enlightenment which means their
  actions are spontaneously in tune with All the Laws
  of Nature, the Will of God, which means there's
  nothing wrong with their so-called wild parties.
  Are you enlightened Rick??  Who are you to judge them??
 
  They clearly need fancy mansions and cars in order
  to entertain Indian Gov't Dignitaries who are key to
  establishing large pundit groups who will bring on
  Sat Yuga for all mankind, so who cares about their
  apparent lavish lifestyles considering their larger
  purpose??
 
  Besides, you should stay focused on King Nadar Ram
  and the Rajas, not the nephews who have the real
  power, otherwise the CIA will get after them and
  ruin humanity's only hope for a problem free life.
 
  Is this irony or the usual true believer kidology?
  I can't tell anymore
 
  I noticed that, too.
 
  Perhaps I'm too subtle

No, Mark is subtle. His rap is such effective
parody *because* it could have been stated
*verbatim* by someone high up in the TM move-
ment. They would have said this same stuff,
and believed every word of it.

It's one of the very Laws Of Nature that they
like to talk about: Mindless fuckin' robots
can't tell that they're acting like mindless
fuckin' robots.




Yes it's very good, scary actually.

Another thing that's been scaring me more than ever is that I'm clearly 
expected to believe everything they do! Which has caused not a little 
astonishment and affront.

It used to be alright, I'm more than happy to accept that not everyone 
thinks like me. But it seems that to have heard the knowledge and have 
doubts makes them think there is something wrong with me!

Still, they are all very nice robots, some of the nicest I've met in fact.

  Interesting. Nice touch with the photo of himself where his 
head is
  positioned slightly above MMY's.
  
  
  
  I find it very unusual that he would deem to put a photo of 
himself -
  - same size -- right beside MMY's.
 
 That is odd. AFAIK, that's his office. Funny to have a big photo 
of oneself
 in one's office, Maharishi or no Maharishi.

Maybe he will be proclaimed as Maharishi when MMY has gone. And 
the Rajas and Morris and Hagelin,  will continue to be lackeys. (I 
have finally bought a Norwegian-English dictionary). The money will 
be administrated from India. And MMY will be proclaimed as an Avatar 
like Matraya, sending messages through the New Maharishi or someone 
else to the TB, to keep them in the fold. The Imagination has no 
limits.

Indeed.

Coming to think of all the possible scenarios and the powerstruggle
after his death, which MMY must be able to forsee I think, it would
explain, why he is so intent upon disolving the movement.

Sure, thats a contradiction, I admit. Yet I don't believe the movement
will stay like a unified whole. It will split up like a dying tree,
with lots of seeds for new smaller trees around - maybe a whole
forest. Some of these seed will contain the truth and some won't. The
buildings can still have a place in my scenario.

As Judy and I have both pointed out, the post-MMY breakup of the TM 
organization has already happened due to the odd clothing 
requirements and recertification requirements and so on.

The TMO is in an expansion phase currently, and MMY has set enough 
unobtainable goals for it to keep itself busy for the forseeable 
future.

 In India, if you have the right connections, Nothing can touch
  you.  It is very different from America.
  
 I think the power of the Nephews will diminish if Maharishi
  attains Samadhi [Dies].  They cannot be completely ridden off.  
  
 Probably, Bevan Morris and John Hagelin will be the two
  hot-shots controling the movement and it's finances.

   I think they've got each other by the balls. It could go like
 this:
   Nephews: We've got some dirt on you MMY. Keep sending money or
  we'll divulge it.MMY: Yeah, well you ain't exactly squeaky-clean
  yourselves. Do something demonstrable with at least some of that money
  or I won't be able to raise more to send you. And besides, I really do
  want to help the world.
   Nephews: Deal.
 
Maharishi also protects them from Tax-raids.  
   
 How does he do that? Who protects him?
 
Without Maharishi they would have lot of problems.
   
 Kindly explain what you think will happen when he dies. 
   
  
  Are you guys sure you didn't cross some wires during your last program
and confused spiritual leadership with the Sopranos?
 
 A couple yrs ago, a friend who knew alot about the Indian TMO said to
 me something to the effect:  imagine what will happen to the brains of
 the MUM crowd when the truth comes out and they realize the Indian TMO
 has as much in common with the mafia as an ashram.  
 

Two proposals..

(1) a big jump toward the Big E 
(2) an excuse to start worshipping the God of Cynicism

 In fact, now that I think of it, maybe Richs list is what saves the

Trusted source. And he said the Srivastava's reputation for this is
well-known.

Probably worse than most, better than some if we put it on a spectrum. Maybe
the more money there is, the worse the temptation, or the easier it is to
skim off large amounts.

Sigh.  
 After all these

Not sure he has the power to do that. My theory is that the nephews have

  No organization  connected with TM has ever done anything geared

  themselves. What makes you think this would be any different. 
It's
  always been business for profit. Any financial gain to anyone 
else has
  always been incidential to organiztional profit as far a I have 
ever
  seen.
  
  
  This may be the case, but they've always been upfront about it.
 
 You mean about the $millions$ that have been skimmed by 
Maharishi's nephews
 running the Indian TMO, to build their fancy mansions, buy their 
fancy cars,
 and finance their wild all-night parties?


What wild all-night parties?

Maharishi also protects them from Tax-raids. 

How does he do that? Who protects him?

Without Maharishi they would have lot of problems.

Kindly explain what you think will happen when he dies.

   Yes. I was reminded of this the other day by a friend who just

   from India.
 
 Well your friend is clearly just unstressing and should stop 
spreading
 these negative rumors.
 
 Besides the scriptures state that one man attaining Brahman 
spreads
 enlighenment throughout his family, so clearly Maharishi's 
nephews are
 also enjoying a high degree of enlightenment which means their 
actions
 are spontaneously in tune with All the Laws of Nature, the Will of
 God, which means there's nothing wrong with their so-called wild
 parties.  Are you enlightened Rick??  Who are you to judge them??
 
 They clearly need fancy mansions and cars in order to entertain 
Indian
 Gov't Dignitaries who are key to establishing large pundit groups 
who
 will bring on Sat Yuga for all mankind, so who cares about their
 apparent lavish lifestyles considering their larger purpose??
 
 Besides, you should stay focused on King Nadar Ram and the Rajas, 
not
 the nephews who have the real power, otherwise the CIA will get 
after
 them and ruin humanity's only hope for a problem free life.
 
 
 
 
 
 Is this irony or the usual true believer kidology? I can't tell 
anymore



I had the same thought...and that's what was frightening about 
Richard's post.  I couldn't tell (at least Andy Kaufman used to 
say take my wife, please so we had a hint he was kidding).

 Maharishi hasconsiderable influence politico-social sphere in India. He can pull strings and get things done. Besides the number of devotees willing to obey him and do anything for him is still high. In India, if you have the right connections, Nothing can touch you. It is very different from America. I think the power of the Nephews will diminish if Maharishi attains Samadhi [Dies]. They cannot be completely ridden off.

That said, are these Srivastava parties marked by

Most of the money is in India now and that's controlled by nephews. 
Even many of the US accounts have girish varma listed as the
treasurer.  I really doubt MMY will give financial reins to any
westerners.  He doesn't really trust westerners anymore does he??  B
and H may still be hotshots, but the money will go to whoever MMY
leaves it.

That's a Brigante theory. But these people he's referring to

  Well you didn't say anything, did you?
  
  I said it.
  
  And now I say this: just how did Ingegerd (and others) get from my

  was karma and ignorance that make them dangerous.
  
  Did someone assume I was talking about the current TMO leadership? 
  
  I could have been, but I wasn't. 
  
  In fact, now that I think of it, maybe Richs list is what saves the
  world, by ensuring that the Sal's and who else of this world 
 remains
  chained to their keyboards instead of making the streets unsafe.
 
 When MMY is marketing that HIS knowledge will lead to a perfect

 does not make sense,when you see how he and his followers behave in 
 the TMO. I call it incompetence.

   My initator told me that the TM-org was using pundits and meditators to bring in Gold into into india. There was a time when Gold inflow was under severe controls in India. Every TM-org person coming in, had maximun permissible amount of gold with him which was collected by the Indian TM-org as soon as they land in the Airport.! For 6 decades, the Indian Movie industry was not recognised as an industry by the Indian Government. This caused severe funding problems for Bollywood. This forced Producers to approach the Mafia who would give funding for their movies.markmeredith2002 [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote:  Date: Fri, 07 Apr 2006 20:03:21 -Subject: [FairfieldLife] Re: Declaration of Loyalty to Maharishi Mahesh Yogi A couple yrs ago, a friend who knew alot about the Indian TMO said to me something to the effect: imagine what will happen to the brains of the MUM crowd when the truth comes out and they realize the Indian TMO has as much in common with the mafia as an ashram.

 Are you guys sure you didn't cross some wires during your last program

 A couple yrs ago, a friend who knew alot about the Indian TMO said to
 me something to the effect:  imagine what will happen to the brains of
 the MUM crowd when the truth comes out and they realize the Indian TMO
 has as much in common with the mafia as an ashram.

Not only is $$ coming from overseas siphoned off, but the TMO steals from
itself:

One evening some years back Eberhard Doberstein was driving back to Noida
from TMO headquarters in New Delhi with the cash to pay the printing press
employees several weeks' salary. A car forced him off the road and guys in
masks brandishing guns forced him to give them the cash. It was an inside
job. No one else would have known he was carrying money.

   I think the power of the Nephews will diminish if Maharishi
attains Samadhi [Dies].  They cannot be completely ridden off.  

   Probably, Bevan Morris and John Hagelin will be the two

It depends on who controls the bank accounts. Bevan, John, and Tony

Yet...

Seriously, the goal is $10 trillion, but an investment of far less 
than 1% of that goal would provide long-term income for a lot of poor 
people if their analysis is correct.

Well you didn't say anything, did you?

I said it.

And now I say this: just how did Ingegerd (and others) get from my
statement to lack of competence? Where is the connection. The issue
was karma and ignorance that make them dangerous.

Did someone assume I was talking about the current TMO leadership? 

I could have been, but I wasn't. 

In fact, now that I think of it, maybe Richs list is what saves the
world, by ensuring that the Sal's and who else of this world remains
chained to their keyboards instead of making the streets unsafe.

No organization  connected with TM has ever done anything geared
toward improving the financial well being of anyone other than
themselves. What makes you think this would be any different. It's
always been business for profit. Any financial gain to anyone else has
always been incidential to organiztional profit as far a I have ever seen.

Maybe so, but you or I don't get to make up the rules.

Maybe not to paper, but it's all recited on a daily basis in the puja
to Guru Dev anyway. The TM puja contains an admonition to bow down
before your guru and pay homage. Bring fruit and flowers - these all
cost money. Most Indian spiritual traditions have an oath -
some are even secret oaths, such as those in the tantric tradition.
It's SOP for devotees.

I think I've been around for only maybe half of them. 

But I am still taken aback by the amount of bad will some people on

Entertaining feeling like that (unfounded or otherwise) is not good
for your health.

Isn't their anything that can be done to make them let go and start

I once heard this theory that one way MMY ensures world peace is by

do silly things in the TMO instead of letting them create havoc
outside the TMO sandbox.

..or you give it to those you believe have a serious interest in
return for a donation to cover operational costs - which takes us full

The hard fact of the matter is that the TMO is recognized as non-profit.

So, suck it up all ye nay-sayers out there..

I would agree; however, the agreement in question goes way, way 
beyond just trademarks. It talks about teaching meditation 
techniques very generally.  

I'm thinking here of that fellow in Florida who is teaching TM but 
calling it something different.  I don't think that case is a 
question of trademarks but rather whether he can teach TM.

I would think that MMY's we are satisfied quote would go a long 
way towards supporting the teacher's side...

   ...we are satisfied pretty much amends anything here, I would
   say.
   
  
  Perhaps, but its doubtful that that would stand up in a court 
case 
  concerning trademarks.
 
 If MMY is satisfied, why would there *be* a court case?


Because the TMO says there is to be one?

 I would agree; however, the agreement in question goes way, way 
 beyond just trademarks. It talks about teaching meditation 
 techniques very generally.  
 
 I'm thinking here of that fellow in Florida who is teaching TM but 
 calling it something different.  I don't think that case is a 
 question of trademarks but rather whether he can teach TM.
 
 I would think that MMY's we are satisfied quote would go a long 
 way towards supporting the teacher's side...
 

I thought the florida case was about someone who IS calling 
it Transcendental Meditation. Forokh Anklesaria changed the name, 
not the Florida guy.

Against MMY's wishes?  What are you talking about?

  Most all Holy Traditions in India accept money for 
  operational
  expenses. How do you think they build temples? I've seen 
  donor's
   names
  carved into the rock base of some temples. It's a common 
  practice in
  India to give money to your guru for instruction.
   
   They would go to hell.
  
  Maybe so, but you or I don't get to make up the rules.
  
   What Guru would ever put such a sacred bond to paper?
  
  Maybe not to paper, but it's all recited on a daily 
basis in 
  the
   puja
  to Guru Dev anyway. The TM puja contains an admonition 
to 
  bow down
  before your guru and pay homage. Bring fruit and 
flowers - 
  these all
  cost money. Most Indian spiritual traditions have an 
oath -
  some are even secret oaths, such as those in the tantric 
  tradition.
  It's SOP for devotees.
 
 If you have read the Bhagavata then you should know what 
it 
  says
   about one who sells 
this 
 secret knowledge.


Yes, it says they go to hell.
   
   
   Just how did this thread go from a remarkably simple and fair 
  contract
   regarding proprietary rights to Hell..?
   
   I think some of the folks on this list is in serious need for
   psychological attention.
  
  
  
  Of course!
  
  And it only took you 93,791 posted messages to figure that out?
 
 I think I've been around for only maybe half of them. 
 
 But I am still taken aback by the amount of bad will some people on
 this list nurture against TM and its founder.
 
 Entertaining feeling like that (unfounded or otherwise) is not good
 for your health.
 
 Isn't their anything that can be done to make them let go and start
 having a life..?
 
  
  World Peace could have been achieved 3 years ago with all the 
energy 
  that we all waste gossiping on this forum every day...
 
 
 I once heard this theory that one way MMY ensures world peace is by
 attract some of the most stressed people on the planet and have 
them
 do silly things in the TMO instead of letting them create havoc
 outside the TMO sandbox.

What a peculiar excuse for incompetence!
