Spiritual Aid Is Easier To Obtain
</hdr><body>
<p>By David Ellis/Reported by Sidney Urquhart
</p>
<p> A few eyebrows were raised by an unusual private meeting
MIKHAIL GORBACHEV scheduled during the London economic summit.
The Soviet leader took time out from importuning Western leaders
for economic help to greet his friend SRI CHINMOY, the New Age
Indian guru. As French President Francois Mitterrand watched
from the side, Gorbachev accepted a book of praise from the
spiritual leader, who is based in Queens, N.Y. Gorbachev, who
has been known to sprinkle speeches with terminology about his
vision for a "new civilization" that obeys "new laws and logic,"
first met the guru last year on a state visit to Canada.
