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 […]

OOPS! New York Times promotes cultic Transcendental Meditation February 19, 2019
On February 12, 2019, Marisa Meltzer, NYT's Wellness Columnist's article describing Transcendental Meditation could have been a purchased advertisement by the organization. She describes the meditation as a 20-minute exercise that could be performed anywhere (click here to read the article), but does not question anything about the method or organi […]

The Transcendental Meditation Teaching Agreement December 27, 2018
Here, for the first time online (as far as I know), is an agreement that prospective meditators were required to sign before receiving instruction in how to practice Transcendental Meditation.This particular document likely dates from the mid-1990's, though there is no date or number on the form to confirm that. I think it likely that this, or some very […]

Dead Men Can't Complain About What's Done in Their Name December 17, 2018
One of the questions I often ask, when looking over the present landscape of everything left behind in the wake of Maharishi’s arrival in the West, is: how did he successfully convince so many people - including me, at one point, many years ago - that what he was selling was worth paying real money for, spending time doing, endorsing, in some cases, throwing […]

What did you sign when you started TM? November 15, 2018
In the course of sorting through some contributed TM-related materials and doing a bit of research, I came across two interesting items that apparently date from the mid-1990's.The first of these are one page agreement forms, that prospective meditators had to sign before proceeding with TM instruction, and also another version that applied to instructi […]

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. "...'Will my practice of Transcendental Meditation conflict with my religion?' [TM spokesperson] Roth answers, 'No....' " (p. 79)"...For our practice, we select only the suitable mantras of personal gods. Such mantras f […]

"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 […]
