| In India nobody bothers about Maharishi Mahesh Yogi because the people are so fast asleep, snoring. They don’t need it. But when a country becomes rich and people are not doing physical labor the sleep is disturbed. Then either you take tranquilizers or TM. And TM is of course better because it is not so chemical. But it is still a very, very deep hypnotic device... --Osho Yoga: The Alpha and the Omega, Vol. 1 ch. 5 |
