The assumption here was that TMers were in many cases unable to discern the difference between the Real Deal and lesser and possibly harmful crap (ie Robin Carlson, etc). (Carlsen.) Wayback, since you are obviously not that familiar with Robin's deal, you probably shouldn't use him as an example. Without going into a long dissertation, possibly the most important thing to know in this context is that according to Peter Sutphen, Bevan said Maharishi had ordered him, Bevan, to leave Robin alone when Robin showed up at MIU with his group. Bevan ignored Maharishi's instruction, and a big public mess was the result. Robin and his followers were completely dedicated to Maharishi. Maharishi had kept his eye on Robin when he was teaching in Canada (at that point most of his group were TM initiators) but never interfered. Bottom line, Robin was an anomaly, not an example of the lesser and possibly harmful crap Maharishi wanted to protect TMers from. I disagree. I was around exactly when Robin was in full cry and while I never went to hear him (and would not have bothered to being at the time a fairly loyal Tm teacher) I heard from others I trusted how odd the whole thing was. Whatever we have heard that MMY supposedly told Bevan, there is more to the story. Well, when you find out what more there was, do let us know. I'm just telling you what Peter said here that Bevan told him, and Peter is pretty reliable. Perhaps you can straighten it out with him. And as I mentioned, there's also the fact that while Maharishi kept tabs on Robin and his group of TM initiators in Canada, Maharishi never interfered, so it appears Maharishi didn't think any protection was required. The fact that MMY did not interfere says nothing about whether he felt Robin's followers needed protecting. It was not benign from what I heard from friends at that very time. People OTP or even somewhat devoted to MMY did NOT go and see or follow Robin. (Whether it is good to be OTP is a whole other discussion). Robin and his group were not considered at all to be devoted to MMY. That may be, but those doing the considering were simply uninformed (or misinformed) on that point. Even after Maharishi had to disown Robin in the court case Bevan instigated, and Robin and his group had to leave town, Robin remained loyal to Maharishi for at least a couple of years (not sure of the exact time frame).

Indirectly: when they return, some announce that they've been reading posts but not replying for one reason or another; some announce that they've not been reading posts for one reason or another; some say nothing about this. The ethical issues in all this are that you accused Susan of doing something which you do not prove is happening because you do not prove that Robin is not around to defend himself.

Umm bring me up to speed on that - at the time the Domes were built, I was a starry eyed TM True Believer who wanted to be a TM teacher and was busy running the race to Inner Space by chasing the Citizen Sidha track.

As much as we enjoy seeing these TMO people as a bunch of power hungry bureaucrats, they are also responsible for how Maharishi's policies are to be be maintained, or modified. The TMO is anything but a charismatic organization, left to freewheel about the vague sayings of its founder. Maharishi was pretty specific about how TM and the TMSP are taught, and practiced. Obviously some are going to abuse their power, as in any organization, though I also recognize the significant responsibility those in the TMO feel, to uphold Maharishi's legacy.

If they care more about money than fulfilling Marshy's wishes then they will. Remember, their definition of heaven on earth is the establishment of a vedic civilisation (or what their idea of one is) and that will only happen with everyone on the programme. This is how they think. Well, not think, it's what they were trained to do. It's going to be the deepest thing in Bevans life. Not just his job but his whole raison d'etre.

Painting and Poetry are two different mediums of expression, so stick to only one? Poor analogy. If you were to try speaking English and Japanese at the same time you would encounter serious confusion.

Its a really odd thing, this addiction of yours, to something you haven't done for most of your life. You are unique in that way. Among anyone I have ever known, or met, or taught in class, or spoke with on a plane, or had a conversation with at a party, or at work, or written to, I have NEVER MET someone with an obsession like yours, who had nothing whatsoever to do with the object of their obsession. I have never seen this behavior before. As a result, I am really glad you live on a different continent, than I do. :-) This, the Turqs obsession with the TMO, has been pointed out again and again for years now. How can a person who left something, anything, more than 40 (!) years ago keep obsessing and still claim to be sane ? In my book it's simply not possible.

The Meissner effect is an expulsion of a magnetic field from a superconductor during its transition to the superconducting state. that don't have shit to do with a Hindu devotional practice done to receive the favor of various Goddesses which is what Ultra Hindu Fanatic Marshy the Con Artist gave to everyone under the guise of calling a simple, natural mental technique practiced 20 minutes twice a day. Of course if George Harrison had known it was a Hindu devotional practice, he would never have had to go over to the Hare Krishnas.

It seems that extremists on both sides are determined to maintain the state of hostility and hatred between the two positions, but logic says that there should be a change of direction in order to turn a new page in this unstable relationship and minimize the state of hostility and mistrust between the two positions. From what I recall, there were 4 reasons MMY forbid looking elsewhere: First, to protect people from getting sidetracked from the TM path and onto a flashier but less evolutionary method. The assumption here was that TMers were in many cases unable to discern the difference between the Real Deal and lesser and possibly harmful crap (ie Robin Carlson, etc). Second, there is value in sticking with a single path and not diluting it with other ways and creating a mishmash of approaches. Third, the TMO and MMY would suffer if the public noticed that TM'ers were still looking for help to solve their own issues or to find a better Master. Fourth, a belief that TM was the best way and pretty much the only way to enlightenment. Yes the [TM sufficiency articles] held by the tru-believers, except clearly the meditating movement does not believe or hold them as articles of faith like our TM-taliban does. We got a problem with a few ultra-preservationist meditators in the middle of everything holding the Meissner Effect [ME] and the Dome meditation hostage with their own faith about things. -Buck in the Dome Now, whatever of the above points might be true, or not, things are different in this day and age it is a fact that people will easily be able to look at other methods to meditate, calm themselves, or evolve. To assume that once a person learns TM they will never be curious about another program or teacher or saint is ludicrous. And so is the assumption that they should be excluded from the good graces of the TMO if they do widen their horizons.The TMO has to make a decision soon: to continue to strictly follow MMYs policy from about 1970, or to soften up and realize how different our world is now and how infantalizing the old policy is. How simple it would be to just scrap the whole department that deals with the blacklisting and gatekeeping. Just say the Domes are only for the practice of TM and TMSP, but all who agree to do this are welcome. Welcome back. Everyone around the Prime Minister is saying they are only waiting for the guy to die to resolve the conflict. However in mediation let us hope for a communal peace and reconciliation in a large group meditation before then. -Buck --- In FairfieldLife@yahoogroups.com, Michael Jackson mjackson74@ wrote: what you fail to take into consideration is that your Taliban-like leaders took their cue from Marshy himself and that YEARS of TM, TMSP, rounding, and being around Marshy has led them to this pass - draw - my suggestion is get out before you waste anymore time, effort, energy and money.

The answers are several; A - I have no idea B - 7thray is nearly as crazy as you and I don't generally pay attention to his stuff C - I might not have answered for the same reason you never answer the question of do you think Benjy Creme should be allowed to do presentations at the Domes?
