...week in the presence of "God Sir" can be had for well under $100, including a gourmet vegetarian diet. Typically the Poona seekers are in their late 20s, or older, searching frantically for spiritual answers. Ma Prem Ida, who dropped out after 15 years as a Las Vegas waitress, then tried est, says, "I want to get out of myself, have fun with myself, do what my feelings tell me." A 35-year-old psychotherapist named Tim who practices in the Midwest found his techniques running dry and is searching for what he calls "radical autonomy." America, he says...

Press conferences denouncing the FBI have given way to post-game interviews in the warm glow of a victorious team's dressing room. The strict vegetarian diet has been modified to include a Pacific salmon now and then. Walton has hardly become a conservative paragon of the Establishment; he still chomps bean sprouts and supports radical causes. But this year, for the first time in his N.B.A. career, he has been physically healthy...
