Talk:Prudence Farrow

message: Prudence Farrow explained years later that she was just trying to take Transcendental Meditation seriously. She said in Mojo magazine, September 2008: "They were trying to be cheerful, but I wished they'd go away. I don't think they realized what the training was all about."

Someone could add this if they want.
:It was a different world. The Beatles weren't American; they didn't share Americans' distress over the War in Vietnam, the generation gap, the loss of faith in religious institutions, the fear of Russian ICBMs, the threat of the robber barons, the proliferation of guns. Eastern religions offered a new perspective on divinity and humanity. The promise of direct experience of God was surely enticing to Prudence and millions of Americans who flocked to India in search of escape from all the myriad ills of American nationalism and culture: racism, inequality, jingoism, masculinism, Americanism, capitalism. The Beatles were riding high; the Farrows were declining from theatrical glory into a morass of aimless, pointless, celebrity-ogling and Hollywood fandom.
:I went to India in November, 1972, seeking the mystical divine knowledge that might bring me into contact with an otherworldly realm of experience, following the promise of access to Jung's Universal Unconscious -- a new, cosmic consciousness -- the opening of the third eye which sees all.
:What I found was excellent free marijuana, growing wild and abundantly. I failed in my religious quest, and discovered that very few similar pilgrims could actually claim to have found the glorious, boundless bliss promised by Eastern gurus. Those who had, it seemed to me, had descended into an abyss of solitary withdrawal. They were as divorced from the world as dessicated frogs in dried-up mud flats. Conversation with them was impossibly drab.
:I had fallen in love with Prudence in 1967, when nobody knew her. She was incredibly beautiful and quiet. I was afraid to tell her I loved her. It would have broken a spell. Funfree (talk) 10:27, 31 May 2014 (UTC)

message: n sidebar summary on the right hand side there are two factual errors.My name is spelled Bruns not burns. My wife dated Robert Durst for about two weeks when he was separated from his wife and before she disappeared (contrary to what is stated in article) it is not accurate to list him as a partner.Newspaper reports are not always accurate.  — Preceding unsigned comment added by Albertbruns (talk • contribs) 14:28, 16 November 2012 (UTC)

message: The page for Robert Durst links to Farrow's page, and there has been media reporting on their relationship. However, Durst and the context of the relationship are both unsavory topics for a living person article, especially for a not-so-public figure, so I'm unsure if it's worth adding.
