"Take Me for a Ride: coming of age in a destructive cult"

Money is the preoccupation of adults.
And Lakshmi is the goddess of money...
"So I think it's time everybody adopted a more professional
attitude about their lives. In other words, don't focus
so much on your relationships. Have fun with them. Or if you
don't have them, you don't want them, have fun with that.
But don't bother with what other people in the Centre do so much...
"Sexuality, I think, is a little different for me than it is for
most people in that there is almost no body awareness whatsoever.
It's just light...
"If you can't handle the fact that someday you might be enlightened,
and still fall in love with people and love them and be with them,
and if you can't deal with that, if you hate yourself so much and hate
your sexuality so much that you think it has no light in it...If
you think it makes a difference if I have ten thousand sports cars,
and ten million girlfriends, and lead a very flashy life, and eat
at only the most fashionable restaurants, which I don't, but if
that would make a difference in what we do, in other words, if you
can carry my lifestyle to the most absurd proportions in your mind,
and that would make a difference in the meditation process, then you
shouldn't work with me.
