Taos. A man tells the story about how he was told to seek initiation in a Hindu sect. He stopped at the Lama foundation and met Ram Dass. He asked about this advice. Ram Dass told him to go meet K.K. Shaw. He went to see Maharaj-ji. At first he thought Maharaj-ji was chewing gum, but he was saying "Ram". He felt this heat rush up his spine. Waves of light were coming out of his eyes. He felt compassion one day for everyone and Maharaj-ji took notice by throwing him bananas. This began the opening of his heart.
