| 2 | [on changing his name from Jack Rosenberg] Freudians would say this was a rejection of Jewishness and a seizure of strength. |
| 3 | I tried yoga, Dale Carnegie, Zen, Scientology, encounter groups, t-groups, psychoanalysis, reality therapy, Gestalt, love, nudity, you name it," he recalls. "But when it was over, that was not it. |
| 4 | Of all the disciplines that I studied, practiced, learned, Zen was the essential one. It was not so much an influence on me, rather it created space. It allowed those things that were there to be there. It gave some form to my experience. And it built up in me the critical mass from which was kindled the experience that produced est. |

| 1 | CBS acknowledged its 1991 60 Minutes program about Werner Erhard was inaccurate. The March 1991 segment and transcript of 60 Minutes was removed by CBS from public access. "The '60 Minutes' segment was filled with so many factual discrepancies that the transcript was made unavailable with this disclaimer: 'This segment has been deleted at the request of CBS News for legal or copyright reasons.'" [The Believer, Vol. 1, No. 2, May 2003, p.27] In March 1991, CBS aired a 60 Minutes segment on Werner Erhard with scurrilous accusations of Mr. Erhard's character. It was disclosed by the Los Angeles Times in December 1991 that Scientology orchestrated an attack on Werner Erhard by using private investigators to generate and feed false information to the media, including to 60 Minutes. By 1999, investigative journalists, including ABC, Time Magazine, The Times (London), and The Boston Globe finally were able to expose allegations aired on the 60 Minutes program as false, and CBS repudiated its 60 Minutes report and removed the program from public distribution because of these inaccuracies. CBS took this action at their own initiation as a matter of journalistic integrity because the accusations made during the program proved to be false, and not as a result of any legal pressure from Mr. Erhard as has been falsely reported. |
| 2 | CBS never said its 1991 60 Minutes program about Werner Erhard was inaccurate. The March 1991 segment and transcript of 60 Minutes was removed by CBS from public access for "legal or copyright reasons". |
| 3 | Before he founded est, Erhard worked as a Collier's Encyclopedia salesmen, and later, as Jack Frost, was a car salesman. |
| 4 | Married his second wife, June Bryde, on April 1, 1960. He signed the Maryland marriage license as "Curt Wilhelm VonSavage". June, whose name already alludes to being made up, signed her name as "Celeste Marie Radell." This subterfuge may be due in part to the fact that Erhard (Jack Rosenberg at the time) was still married to his first wife, Patricia Fry. |
| 5 | In 1988 the Gandhi Memorial International Foundation gave Werner Erhard, Joan Baez, Shirley Temple Black, and David Packard its "Mahatma Gandhi Humanitarian Award" However, CNN reported that Yogesh Gandhi used funds solicited for his Gandhi Memorial International Foundation, in order to pay off his own personal debts. |
