Maharishi Mahesh Yogi

Past away tuesday. See my blog for pic.

Maharishi Mahesh Yogi was Guru of the Transcedental Meditation and lived in Vlodrop, the Netherlands. "All the rivers of the world gather in Vlodrop," he once said. The Flow and the Drop.

Namaste Maharishi.


Maybe chat a bit about him here?

I have never seen him in life allthough he lived nearby. As you know I was in the other camp, Osho's camp. Osho always made fun of him, but I think they where the same level. Maharishi has his special audience, highly intelectual people and they do very well... and Maharishi didn't get the mess Osho got with his followers... They where ONE ... I think they are on a beerbooze right now!!!

I was looking for some nice quotes these days of Maharishi but didn't find any. What he sais is right the same as Osho did, but Osho's words taste better for me. His teaching and website are a bit boring and highly intelectual as Osho was more fun and down to earth. Now comparing is not necesary (but I did) they taught the same: MEDITATE you dog!
And Maharishi seemt to giggle lovely with every question, I'm sorry I never seen him.
