Hi SA,

That’s OK. I don’t guess you are old enough to remember all this from 
the 60s and 70s, and I believe it is still going on now. It was a 
period when everyone was questioning everything. This made it easy for 
the gurus to come to America and bilk folks out of their money. 
Transcendental meditation was the biggest thing going, and cult 
leaders were selling Zen Bhuddism. You could get all the enlightenment 
you could ever ask for by giving up your worldly possessions to the 
leaders of these cults. The Beatles popularized it, but they weren’t 
the only celebrities which fell in for this. The cult leaders made out 
like bandits, and I imagine they still are. Though I don’t keep up 
with celebrity gossip, I do remember hearing of celebrities recently, 
the most recent maybe being Britney Spears(?) who hire their own 
gurus.  

The 60s and 70s was a wild time, and I think this shows the dangers of 
Dynamic Quality just for the sake of looking for something in your 
life to make sense of the madness. Then again, Timothy Leery managed 
to screw up the heads of the youth giving the LSD away free. From what 
I remember, he really believed he was doing society a favor. 

I’ll stop and just say you’d had to have been there.
