Re: [FairfieldLife] Re: Phase to say when someone is dying
No, Judy, it was a stupid red herring--yet another-- you inserted in there, probably to deflect the discussion, as you so often do. Nobody had ever said MMY had run after children. And the 'awful' part is your own interpretation, once again.

So "children" didn't have anything to do with it, then, that was just something you invented to make MMY sound as awful as possible?

Try running after a child with a stick in your hand and, if noticed by another adult, get ready for a trip down to the local police station, at the very least.

I'm a pretty loyal fellow. And somewhat naïve. Although it may not seem like it here, I tend to see the best in people. Also, I had wonderful experiences around MMY, and great benefits from TM, so for a long time, those caused me to ignore increasingly obvious evidence that something was wrong.

If you do that at work you end up fired. If you do that at home you end up divorced. If you do that to your kids, they end up on drugs, etc., etc. Yahoo!

On my TTC during his week of silence he told us to "...be easy with the mantra for a week". Someone asked about asanas and he said, "No,no,no". Another asked about pranayama and he said, "No,no,no." Another asked for clarification, "So, Maharishi, we should meditate the whole week?" And he said yes. A week later when he came out of silence and was suprised to learn that we had all been maeditating the entire week he asked us who had told us to meditate like that. When we collectively said that he had, he said he had told us no such thing. Go figure. > > > > > > > > Yahoo!
