Maharishi Mahesh Yogi Tribute

In my hometown Stockholm, Sweden, I was 14, I was with the crowd waiting for you in the school's auditorium. Then you came down the aisle. I was surprised how short you were. That whole experience of seeing you walking down the aisle and hearing you talk... so easy for me then to know "this is it." I learned TM two months later. In Oslo, Norway, during vacation from MIU, Fairfield, some time in my 20's, I held up a rose, as you received it, you so gently touched my left hand - it was just like a gentle breeze. - My hand is blessed. And then there was the time at MIU. You came to us there. - Thank you..... ... What have I received from all these years of having a connection with you? - Many things. In this moment what strikes my mind is: I've met a person who so completely thinks for himself, i.e., someone whose Self is so alive in his actions and words. That's just one quality. But that one quality I've come to value so deeply in life; to live who we are deep within, in words and actions. It is to actualize,... to become,... to be enlightened. It is to transparently show who we are. This also makes for intimacy, connection with others. The two go hand in hand. Dear Maharishi, I am committed to actualizing, to enlighten. - Thank you for this gift. I do deeply miss you. Your passing away brought me tears and warmth. But foremost, it made me stop and it brought silence! I am 50 now. I'm at such peace with your passing away, and I think this is because you awakened this important value in me to actualize me. And as I do discover and live me, I find you there. Thank you for your eternal company. I hope I can be of good service to our world. You inspire me. - Henry Ahlstrom
