ghi,
The personal experience of listening and being with Maharaji is a positive one, as you know, for many people who continue to hear him speak in person. There is a certain energy and fulfillment being in Maharaji’s presence. If one decides to learn from him, then it makes sense to hear him speak and allow him to teach you.
From what I've read here and on EPO I personally can't listen to Maharaji any more. Please read the Jim Sander letters in the link below.
The essence of life is the magic behind stillness, music, symmetry, love, and growth aside - would you want to bring new people into "Maharaji's World?"
