- <p> GORBY, THE NEW AGE GURU? Fans of harmonic convergences and
- the like have been noting Mikhail Gorbachev's frequent use of
- phrases associated with the new age movement, that mystical,
- universalist philosophy that preaches, as the Soviet President
- does, of the need for "a new world order." As he said in
- California: "All mankind is entering a new age, and world
- trends are beginning to obey new laws and logic." More
- strikingly, he held a private meeting in Canada earlier in the
- week with one of the leading gurus of the new age movement,
- Sri Chinmoy, who read him a "spiritual song" and gave him a
- volume of admiring letters.
