Journalist Dinesh Khare recalls:-
'The initiation took place in front of a picture of Guru Dev 
and I was told that I should consider neither my initiator 
nor Maharishi Mahesh Yogi as my spiritual teacher but the Guru Dev 
himself. It was a thrilling experience and the very first day my 
turbulent mind experienced such a serene calm that when I got up 
after practising TM for the first time, I bowed my head to the 
lotus feet of Guru Dev and since that day have regarded him as 
my spiritual teacher and guide.' 15
