Maharishi Mahesh Yogi, one -time Guru to the Beatles died in Holland today [link] .The Maharishi parlayed knowledge of Hindu scripture into a multi-million dollar empire. He founded the Transcedental Meditation movement. In recent years, his followers have been ridiculed for claiming to have achieved “Yogic flight”.Demonstrations of these usually had a couple of folks, crossing their legs yogically and jumping on their knees. A brief controversy around Mia Farrow briefly clouded his image. That incident obliquely referred to by Farrow in her autobiography has been debunked by other followers like Deepak Chopra. The Maharishi had announced his retirement from normal activities on January 11th stating ” Invincibility is irreversibly established in the world. My work is done. My designated duty to Guru Dev is fulfilled.” [link]
