He had an intense antipathy toward the corrupt city life in Israel and regarded the abuses of the national leaders as sins against the covenants of God. Yet he was an optimist and said, "And many nations shall come, and say, Come, and let us go up to the mountains of the Lord, and to the house of the God of Jacob; and He will teach us of His ways, and we will walk in His paths; for the law shall go forth of Zion, and the word of the Lord from Jerusalem.

Record albums have appeared but no one is buying.

Transcendental meditation, even Beatle-supported, won't sell in the discount stores. I mean, how do you make it a bargain? Now we have the word that the holy man has Winged back to Japan or India, wherever holy men go these days. His tour collapsed when the auditorium ushers outnumbered the audience and the kids went home when the Beach Boys stopped playing. Religion is a tough act' anyway and spiritual entertainers have never held the crowds for very long. The maharishi has only himself to blame.

There he was-sitting on the couch in the Plaza, having this nice beauty parlor dialogue with the reporters and someone (an imsroiling newsman looking for facts) asked him why he didn't help the poor people in India. He fondled a. flower and softly replied, "Poor people are lazy. That is why they are poor and hungry." King Kong couldn't have put its more gently. The maharishi kept smiling.

They have money and what this world calls "resources." The top leaders in church circles have their summer homes, expense accounts and handsome retirement benefits. Some have worked diligently, and faithfully bte I doubt if you can name one that is ever short of cash or up tight for credit. And then think for another minute about Jesus.
