Question from Will M Davis (09:39, 8 August 2024)

Hello, Please help me with... I attempted to edit the section "Sexual Misconduct" under Maharishi Mahesh Yogi (link: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Maharishi_Mahesh_Yogi), with quotes from a referenced author and journalist Tony Anthony who concludes Maharishi was a life celibate. I feel my edit is a published and referenced (with ISBN #) view point which objectively contradicts your posting of Judith Bourque's claim Maharishi had sex with her and 16 other women (reference 2010 documentary, David Wants to Fly). My post appears to conform with other contradictory posts, for example, George Harrison's view that Maharishi did not make sexual advances toward Mia Farrow. You quote Harrison, "We were very young" and "It's probably in the history books that Maharishi 'tried to attack Mia Farrow' – but it's bullshit, total bullshit." So I don't understand why you can not publish my comment below and add my reference to your footnotes, please?

In the book "A Joy-Filled Amazement My Eight-Year Spiritual Journey with Maharishi Mahesh Yogi," by Tony Anthony, copyright 2022, the author describes in his chapter, "The Celibate Life," how Maharishi "expected celibacy of the members of International Staff" at the Seelisberg Capital of the Age Enlightenment. "It was not a casual announcement- with Maharishi it never was- it was an absolute requirement...The first great monk of our [Maharishi's] tradition, Shankara, was often quoted. More than a thousand years before, he created the guidelines for the role of a Brahmachari, the Sanskrit term for celibate monk." Thus Tony Anthony, educated at Syracuse University, a distinguished Viet Nam War veteran, and a journalist who received an Atlantic Monthly writing award, concludes that Maharishi was a celibate monk and a "guru who shows you the way to God." Anthony, Tony (2022). A Joy-Filled Amazement My Eight Year Spiritual Journey with Maharishi Mahesh Yogi., Montgomery Wood Publishing, pp. 143, 146.

Fields of Mistria work

As someone with interests in (and mainly edit) video games and railway related content, I was literally planning to create that article sometime by end of August! (even if its a stub) I never thought it would be notable enough to be on Wikipedia, especially since its still in early access. I am also really impressed at it because it's at almost 20k bytes! I drafted it in [my userpage] planning it out and just started it. Looks like it's the new Stardew Valley (at 70k bytes). I will also send a barnstar shortly.

Anyway, thats a really amazing article!! Good work! JuniperChill (talk) 19:46, 16 August 2024 (UTC)

Luckily enough, the game has actually received coverage from reliable sources, and it will probably continue getting coverage in the coming period. You do not see 100,000 downloads in a week for an indie game every day. And yes, the game looks very cool, even though I haven't tried it yet. Vacant0 (talk • contribs) 20:15, 16 August 2024 (UTC)

Just like when I planned to create My Time at Sandrock, but that was created a month before I started editing. I did make substantial edits to that however and did like almost half the work.

I do play both Sandrock and Mistria, and until June/july this year, managed to improve Sandrock without playing that. But yeah, both games are really fun and cozy to play! I also can't believe there's an NPC with my name in Mistria. JuniperChill (talk) 20:40, 16 August 2024 (UTC)

@JuniperChill: If Fields of Mistria indeed gets AfD-ed you can remove the barnstar you gave me and I'll bring the article over to my userspace and hopefully return it to mainspace in the coming period. If you find any newer sources by any chance, feel free to add them (this also goes for other editors). Vacant0 (talk • contribs) 11:57, 17 August 2024 (UTC)
