Returning to Goloka

Maharishi that day, he mentioned that some Purusha was working night and
day to do EEG research. My friend, thinking I was in trouble, rushed to tell
me that Maharishi was probably mad at me.
The next day, I was called to show Maharishi the brain mapping

us.
Maharishi had me sit across from him and asked me to show him the
presentation! I began to go through the presentation and in a few minutes I

making some comments about EEG research, this time not speaking in such
incomplete sentences, and I thought: “wow, here I am sitting with Maharishi
and he is asking me questions about brain mapping!” Then I thought about
