  1. lisa - for someone who claims to like positivity and people, your title here related to maharishi comes across pretty low class (though the drawing is kinda nice) - he's done a heck of a lot for mankind

    checking out the rest of your blog, you are a good artist - you should definitely check out the school (100% organic vegetarian - a LOT vegan)

  2. It's a nice drawing, but, I agree with sister: What's up with this denigrating post? Maharishi was a great, amazing teacher of meditation. He stayed true to his purpose his whole life, speaking the simple message that the human mind contains an infinite potentiality that can be tapped through the effortless meditation technique that he revived, after the TM technique had been lost to society---East and West---for thousands of years. And he structured a worldwide non-profit organization to bring the benefits of meditation to people everywhere. He never personally kept a cent of the money that came in from TM course fess, because it all went to spread the word about meditation and help make the knowledge more available.

    What's wrong with that? I don't see how you could pick anything more positive than TM or Maharishi to be negative about.

    And BTW: here's a cool blog about Maharishi and the Beatles, telling the true story, and also giving the news about Paul McCartney and Ringo's upcoming benefit concert for TM, in Radio City music Hall in New York. Contrary to the smear publicity in the press all these years, the Beatles respected Maharishi highly, as this concert demonstrates. John even called Maharishi, back in the 80s, and apologized for "Sexy Sadie," a rash "error in judgment," John said. Maharishi just thanked him for the call and got on with his work of bringing enlightenment to the world.

    keep up that positivity, Lisa! !! ! !!!
