"In SIS transcendal meditation(TM) everybody will be given one separate mantra. You have to SINK SE mantra slowly. Don't worry about external disturbances. SINKING mantra, SAT itself will do good. SAT brings you FOOL consciousness. To get FOOL consciousness you should do TM twice daily. SOUGH external agents may cause some disturbance you need not worry about SAT.When somebody asked about SIS mantra, you should not tell about SIS mantra"

After that he performed pooja for his guru saying "guru brahma" and he did all those pooja related things. He offered NEIVEDYAM (some milk sweets) to his GURU. The worst part of it was, he did not distribute the NEIVEDYAM to us. He asked us to to close our eyes and do meditation for 20 min. That 20 min seemed 20 hrs for me. Anyhow I made my mind to do meditation, so that I can get that PRASADAM after the meditaion.When I opened my eyes after that 2....0 min I was shocked to find one milk sweet missing in that packet:-) To top that, he didn't distribute the remaining sweets after the meditation. The next 4 days he was giving some lecture about COSMIC consciousness and FOOL consciousness. Last Friday it got over. Just now I got a call from my Guru saying he'll come here next Tuesday to check our progress. I'm thinking of taking leave on that day.
Instead of Engineering, if I should've taken BA ( Bachelor of Acharyas) my life would've become better. Company is paying them Rs.2000 per employee( RS 4500/ for executives) + their expenditure for staying at HOTEL for 1 week) So everybody in my office calls himself/herself as employee, not as executives. Now I've got the "oli vattam" surrounding my head:-)
NB:Now only I realized that the Germans are pronouncing "TH" as "S". So do the needful change in his lecture. Every words in capital letters has to be converted to the below list
- SAT-that
- SINK/SINKING-think/thinking
- FOOL-full
- SIS-this
- SOUGHT-thought
After making these changes if you go through his lecture once again, we will get some sensible idea. If I knew about this before, I wouldn't have taken fun at him:-)

Have you heard of the Yogic Flying Demo done by these same TM guys. They said that they have achieved this capability & that there will be a demo of Yogic Levitation in KA (The Govt. one). So we all went there - I have seen the same performed by roadside Modi Masthan, but wanted to see how well they can disguise their trick. There were tons of poojas & TMs and we were anxiously waiting for the main event. Finally, the ultimate yogis who mastered levitation showed up.
About 5 or 6 of them sat on the centre, doing Padmasanam and it was absolute silence in anticipation. Everyone expected them to slowly lift from their seats. Instead what happened was there was a suddent burst of loud music (jalras, & band & stuff like that) and these guys started jumping around (still in sitting posture). It was exactly like some frogs hopping, but frogs could jump much higher than that. And that's the end of it. The road side Modi Masthan did a hell of a job & got his money only in5 & 10 paises whereas these guys were getting more than 40 Billion dollars(estimated at that time and Maharishi Mahesh Yogi himself was one of the richest man in the world trailing only Sultan of Brunei, Paul Getti, SamWalton & a few others, worth at least 4 Billion Dollars). There were reporters and they asked some doubts, like - Are you not just hopping and what's so special about this 1" flying? They were responded that you guys do jumping & this is actually levitation. You don't belive it & that's why you don't see the levitation. They are already mastered & in a few years they'll also master levitation directly to heaven (they are half way there already).
I never regretted for many of things in life I did or didn't do, but thereis one thing I still seriously regret - why I didn't become a Samiyarini. Hey, it's crowded, but still not too late.
