I seriously doubt that ANYONE who posts on this forum knows what being totatlly fried by Maharaji and Company is like. And Macgregor has been really fried.
I've had two separate and quite inconsequential dealings with Maharaji's lawyers and I've been CAC'd and threatened and my employer's address was posted with requests to tell them bad things about me, I've been accused of be a White Supremist and a whole lot more. And, you know what? When I do a GOOGLE on your real names (ha!) I sure don't come up with much. But I sure as hell do when I Google my name and it sucks. And I jump jobs quite often and I always fear the fallout of someone doing a little due diligence and Googling me. I'd say at least 99% of you don't have to worry about these annoying details at all. And yet here you are casting stones. Before you start casting stones how about using your real name here on this forum? Yeah, that's what I thought.
All you suckers, er, nice people in your freaking overstuffed (Lord, I'm trying. Oh, Lord, help me here. I'm hoping the MODs don't delete THIS post) armchairs know absolutely nothing about the consequences of being an outspoken critic of Maharaji and being hounded or being on the bad end of a legal stick that's giving you the knick-knack paddy whack as you enter middle age.
Sheesh. Live and let live.
And the irony about John Macgregor and the efforts by a lot of unnamed people on the Internet is that John will be only a footnote in passing. The real effort that has been the most effective has been the grassroots efforts by a lot of nameless nobodies, as it should be. And I wish to hell I was nameless.
P.S. I give this post a life of about 2 hours and it will be deleted.
