Hotel Milano is located in Brunate, over-looking Lake Como, Italy. The luxury hotel was built at the turn of the century, but when tourist habits changed, the hotel was sold to the Maharishi as a meditation retreat center in the 80's. It was used as such for 20 years, until the Maharishi put the ex-hotel back on the market. Albert, the sole remaining disciple and gate keeper, lived alone in the 100 room hotel for 5 years, until the Maharishi died. At that point, Albert went to India and the hotel remains empty and for sale.

the army is handing out $4million in grants to research the effects of alternative therapies on PTSD. therapies proposed for study run the gamut:
"Music, animal-facilitated therapy, art, dance/movement, massage therapy, EMDR [Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing] program evaluation, virtual reality, acupuncture, spiritual ministry, transcendental meditation, [and] yoga," might all be considered worth of the military's largess. So would "biologically-based treatments, botanicals, and nutritional supplements for enhancing cognitive function and mood in patients with trauma spectrum disorders, including TBI and/or PTSD, depression, anxiety, and/or substance dependence/abuse." Even proposals for wild-sounding "therapies using bioenergies such as Qi gong, Reiki, distant healing and acupuncture" would be accepted.
the popular theory is that the only reason these alternative means of healing have not already been further researched is because of the totalitarian grip of the medical/pharmaceutical industry on research $$, so it will be interesting to see what comes of this!

Famed Beatles guru and Transcendental Meditation movement founder, the Maharishi Mahesh Yogi, died earlier today at an estimated 91 years of age at his home in the Dutch town of Vlodrop. According to a TM spokesman, the Maharishi "died peacefully at about 7pm" local time as a result of "natural causes, his age."
Though he began teaching back in 1955, it was the discipleship of the fab four that catapulted the Maharishi, who was eventually to head a multi-million dollar empire, to his own kind of spiritual stardom. Non-Liverpudlian celebrity followers have included Deepak Chopra, the Rolling Stones and director David Lynch (Twin Peaks and Eraserhead). Definitely an innovative and creative thinker himself, the Maharishi founded a university in Fairfield, Iowa, and also sponsored group meditations intended to bring about world peace and an end to poverty.
We here at Daily Mantra salute the Maharishi for inspiring thousands and following up on many of his dreams for a better world. We also endorse some words of instruction he passed along during a 2006 interview. "Don't fight darkness. Bring the light, and darkness will disappear," he said. Though it is the habit of language to refer to those who have left their bodies as dead, we have little doubt that this one-time physics student from central India even now continues his surrender to the light.
