[Buddha-l] As Swami goes, so goes the nation? (Dan Lusthaus and Richard P. Hayes)

That makes sense. Everyone needs a target group. A course in TM
typically costed a percentage of your income and the aidstest in
the Pune ashram costs several monthly wages of an Indian worker.
And we know that socalled 'spirituality' has as primary function
to aliviate feeligns of guilt of the rich and wealthy.

Are you guys talking about the same ashram? Erik's remarks would
apply to the Osho ashram, whereas Weng Fai mentioned it was a
Maharishi ashram. Why would the Maharishi ashram have an aids
test if sex wasn't part of the practice?
