The timeline of events in the life of one of India's greatest saints
inthe 20th Century, Ma-ananda Mai (? other variations of her name
exist), explictly refers to Maharishi Mahesh Yogi visiting her,
not Yogi Mahesh.

And you can determine the state of consciousness of
the speaker by
how he pronounces Buddha. If he just says BUHDAH
-- as he would
BUTTER but with Ds instead of Ts and dropping
the R -- then he
is of low consciousness. If he says it with the
three syllables
distinctly enunciated -- BOO-DA-HAH -- then he is,
of course, very
highly evolved. Throw in an East-Asian accept and
say it very
quickly then you're probably an Avatar.
It's like in the TM Movement: if you say
MA-HA-Ri-SHI you are lowly
evolved and should just be cleaning the floors of
your local
center. But...if you pronounce it MA-HAR-SHI then
you are, of
course, a long-time TMer who is personally close to
and beloved of
MMY and you are highly evolved.
There are exceptions of course. Notably, Charlie
Lutes. Not only
did Charlie pronouce it MA-HA-RI-SHI, the
son-of-a-gun threw in the
article, to boot! Charlie always referred to him as
THE MA-HA-RI-
SHI which gave him a good-ole-boy rep who could
still go into any
board room in America and slap the back of any
stogie-totin' CEO
and, in the same breath, tell them he was now going
to go off and
close his eyes and silently repeat a mantra.
SSRS is in the lineage of Charlie. He calls MMY, the
Maha rishi
