Hey Joe,
I'm glad you acknoweldge the completion of the human experience that includes rationalization and feeling. We do know each other, and I do know how you feel from years go. Given that, you mention that the problem you have is Maharaji "adds a false belief system to a feeling".
That part I don't understand - I mean I get what you are trying to say, but really, the feeling, or thirst for feeling, and feeling grace, oneness, or however the language defines it --- there's no belief system. If you feel whole and centered, what's the point of attaching any statement of system to it? All i was trying to express was that in practicing Knowledge, seeing Maharaji, and enjoying involvement in his work, I do find fulfilllment. Perhaps I would feel the same way working for the Gates Foundation in Africa, or something. But this is not a social cause, or political cause. For me, I enjoy the grace, or energy that comes in this area. There's no belief. I think you keep approaching the whole subject on the level of belief of whether its true or not. If you don't find it true, then certianly there's no endorsement. If one does find this true then it is. How do you define 'finding it to be true' (or not) ; given logic is not the only tool?
