Well praise Jesus and what a wonderful Savior He is! It took him awhile, but Christ has finally sent the dot-head cultist down to hellfire who was responsible for turning the hippies against Christianity. GLORY and thank you Lord! I know that THIS skinny little monkey is gargling scalding hot demonspunk right next to his satanic disciples John Lennin and George (hairy krishna) Harrison. Good riddance to bad rubbish!
Now see, that right there proves that this whole "TM" cult is not Christian. These foreigners who charge huge fees just to belong to their cult disgust me. Imagine demanding that kind of money from poor deluded followers! It reminds me of those mary worshipers charging for "indulgences."

Don't be stingy! Sell your car if need be. Glory!!
Guru Dies
Maharishi Mahesh Yogi, who introduced transcendental meditation to the West and gained fame in the 1960s as the spiritual guru to the Beatles, died Tuesday at his home and headquarters in Vlodrop, the Netherlands. He is believed to have been in his 90s. Steven Yellin, a spokesman for the Maharishi’s organization, confirmed the death but did not give a cause.
On Jan. 11, the Maharishi announced that his public work was finished and that he would use his remaining time to complete a long-running series of published commentaries on the Vedas, the oldest sacred Hindu texts.
The Maharishi was both an entrepreneur and a monk, a spiritual man who sought a world stage from which to espouse the joys of inner happiness. His critics called his organization a cult business enterprise. And in the press, in the 1960s and ’70s, he was often dismissed as a hippie mystic, the “Giggling Guru,” recognizable in the familiar image of him laughing, sitting cross-legged in a lotus position on a deerskin, wearing a white silk dhoti with a garland of flowers around his neck beneath an oily, scraggly beard.
In Hindi, “maha” means great, and “rishi” means seer.
“Maharishi” is a title traditionally bestowed on Brahmins. Critics of the yogi say he presented himself with the name, which he was ineligible for because he was from a lower caste.
The Maharishi originated the transcendental meditation movement in 1957 and brought it to the United States in 1959. Known as TM, a trademarked name, the technique consists of closing one’s eyes twice a day for 20 minutes while silently repeating a mantra to gain deep relaxation, eliminate stress, promote good health and attain clear thinking and inner fulfillment. Classes today cost $2,500 for a five-day session.
