You know what they found out? That the "Maharishi effect" doesn't exist and that all the claims were just propaganda with zero substance.

The facts are, Prabhupada's work is laughing stock in the expert circles, I have personally witnessed that. If I mentioned Prabhupada to some expert on Indian thought, he would ROTFL. The myth of Prabhupada's importance is ISKCON's local fairy-tale. -- Web (Kundalini-yoga): http://danijel.cjb.net |
