 * Weak Delete. Does not seem to be enough here for establishing notability either per WP:ACADEMIC or per WP:BIO. Little in either googlescholar or googlebooks regarding either his computer science work or his meditation/spirituality book. For notability as a computer scientist I would want to see some serious evidence of citability of his Ada book, which does not seem to be there. No significant reviews of his The Maharishi Effect book either in literary magazines or regular press. The only substantive indicator in favor of notability that I see here is the prize by the Council for Wisconsin Writers. That is good, but in the absence of wider coverage not sufficient for establishing notability. Nsk92 (talk) 00:33, 10 October 2008 (UTC)
