NatrualLawDissonance MUMBLED December 24, 2017
There is a wall that you will hit in the \"movement\" that poses as a secular non-profit organization to bring heaven on earth. It will damage your third eye forever because you won't be able to tell what is reality and what is dissonance from the reality. This the experience of non-duality with a crack. And you are not part of the crack or th […]
Melbourne mamma MUMBLED November 2, 2015
My kid went to the Maharishi School in Melbourne, Australia. We chose the school because we wanted a gentle, nurturing environment with high academic standards and individualised teaching (it is a really small school). What we got is outdated, poor quality teaching and a lot of cultish behaviour from staff and management who unthinkingly do what senior manag […]

Joseph Weber’s Sensational Book

As Maharishi Mahesh Yogi took the West by storm in the ’70s, 2,000 followers set up a university in Fairfield, Iowa. The town hasn't been the same since.

Book Review: "TRANSCENDENTAL DECEPTION: Behind the TM curtain - bogus science, hidden agendas, and David Lynch’s campaign to push a million public school kids into Transcendental Meditation while falsely claiming it is not a religion" by Aryeh Siegel July 25, 2018
Published 2018 by JanReg Press222 pagesReviewed by LaurieThis book is different. This book is special. "...For our practice, we select only the suitable mantras of personal gods. Such mantras fetch to us the grace of personal gods and make us happier in every walk of life...." [quote by Maharishi]. (p. 86) I have read many fascinating memoirs b […]

"they need to... take out the guru crap" April 23, 2018
This was meant to be a followup comment, but the comment it was supposed to follow up on was deleted by its contributor while I was writing. Oh well. So I made a full post out of it instead..."they need to... take out the guru crap"A perennial suggestion I've heard, in some form, for literally decades. This will never happen, for at least two […]

Simon and Schuster misleadingly sells the latest TM promotional book March 4, 2018
It's that time again. Every few years, another book selling Transcendental Meditation, written by a nearly life-long TM teacher or satisfied customer, lands on the store shelves, with the backing of a major publisher. The latest is "Strength in Stillness," written by David Lynch Foundation executive director Bob Roth as part of the Foundation […]

religion and politics: two sides of the same coin of any given cult February 4, 2018
There was, or at least seemed to be, a time, before Mahesh went totally crackers with his narcissistic obsession for fame and fortune, that TM had a side that recognized the personal worth of those who got involved. Individual personal worth wasn't particularly marketable, however (or Mahesh couldn't bother to focus on that kind of thing) and so, i […]

An excerpt from "Meditation : A safety guide" December 11, 2017
Here's an excerpt from a book written by a "meditation mentor" in Singapore. My posting of this excerpt is not to endorse any system of meditation or any religious tradition. It does serve as a rather thorough exploration of the downsides of meditation, and why it may not be recommended for a lot of people.REAL DANGERS OF MEDITATION[Abridged f […]

the end of playing the game December 6, 2017
TM: religion, cult, science? Sure, why not! It's how you play the game, plain and simple. An old-time friend wanted to know why I, such a devoted, committed, true-believer (in the old days), quit TM. When I said I began to feel that I was living a lie, he declared a whiff of bovine excrement. He was right.It was so much more than that. But the words tha […]

Transcendental Meditation for Everyone, but at what cost July 9, 2017
This article appeared in the Wall Street Journal. Most of us might well see some less than rigorous search for facts. Following this article is a former TM teacher's response. ←↕→ Bob Roth, chief executive of the David Lynch Foundation, teaches transcendental meditation to a range of students, from elementary-school children to CEOs by Alexandra Wolfe h […]
