Guest guest Posted July 15, 2002 Report Share Posted July 15, 2002 Not a few Western minds will inevitably consider that this life of Maharishi's is a wasted one. But perhaps it may be good for us to have a few men who sit apart from our world of unending activity and survey it for us from afar. The onlooker may see more of the game and sometimes he gets a truer perspective . It may also be that a jungle sage , with SELF lying conquered at his feet is not inferior to a worldly fool who is blown hither and thither by every circumstace. [ pg 299-300//A search in Secret India] Day after day brings its fresh indications of greatness of this man. Among strangely diversified company of human beings who pass through the hermitage, a pariah stumbles into the hall in some great agony of soul or circumstances and pours out his tribulation at the Maharishi's feet. The sage does not reply, for his silence and reserve are habitual ; one can easily count up the number of words he uses in a single day. Instead Maharishee gazes at the suffering man, whose cries gradually diminish until he leaves the hall two hours later a more serene and stronger man. I am learning to see that this is the Maharishi's way of helping others, this unobstructive, silent and steady outpouring of healing vibrations into troubled souls, this mysterious telepathic process for which the science will one day be required to account....... One can never be certain whether the sage will make a verbal response or not, For often He is eloquent enough without opening His lips.
