Compiled by Paul Mason

# Reference 17

M M Y - 'Must be using better techniques than I am using.'
Questioner - 'Was he still using the long mantras and all of that?'
M M Y - 'It's very difficult for me to find out what he was using, 
because initiation is all in private..... 
And I was never interested who was given what mantra; I 
was interested in myself.....
Full of divine radiance. People don't have to do the mantra and 
meditation in his presence. Just, the transformation was in his air, 
so full of life.' 17
