Maharishiji has merged into the effulgent light, into the cosmos. Yes, there is much rejoicing in that. I know that he has not really left, death is an illusion. Yet, I also feel sad - no one has had more of an impact on my life that this beautiful soul, Maharishi Mahesh Yogi.
Without Maharishi I would never have survived the burden of despair and grief that I inherited, that the world inherited. He brought the sunshine.
The first time I ever saw him on Johnny Carson I sat up and took note - someone was teaching me something different, something more - life is bliss, so simple. But no one spoke like that in the 60's. Life was hard, hard work, people were literally rioting in the streets, bombs were being dropped and here was someone who had a completely contrary message - a message of peace, lightness, bliss, and hope. He spoke of using our full mental potential for the good of the world.
The night he passed I was watching Obama's speech after the primaries and had the thought, we would never have had an Obama without Maharishi's vision, without his teaching, without his message which has permeated the consciousness and the thinking of so many and has extended to transform the entire culture in the last 60 years.
With deep gratitude. Jai Guru Dev!
