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 […]

New PTSD studies: TM as a "black box" - what's inside? March 27, 2021
Recent studies claiming that Transcendental Meditation is effective in treating PTSD, and that it provides other benefits, treat TM as a “black box.” As with many similar past studies, researchers fail to consider that this method of meditation instruction contains several hours of other information, which creates a context of expectation of life improvement […]

Demystifying the Puja, part 3: Misleading everyone for decades about this ritual’s true nature and purpose March 4, 2021
The Transcendental Meditation instruction ritual, the puja, should be viewed in the context of a half-century long attempt to deliberately mislead the public, institutional and governmental authorities, and prospective meditators about the nature and purpose of the TM program. This misrepresentation is evident in the organization’s own descriptions of the na […]

Demystifying the Puja, part 2: A religious transaction with the divine March 1, 2021
The Transcendental Meditation organization has consistently misrepresented the meaning and nature of the puja, TM's instruction ritual, for half a century. Recently, a new document has surfaced explaining, in detail, the puja's meaning in the context of the spiritual traditions of India. This ceremony is a religious transaction in which the prospec […]

Demystifying the Puja, part 1: Establishing authority and dominance over the meditator February 25, 2021
The Transcendental Meditation instruction ritual, the puja, is much more than just some “simple thank-you ceremony.” Its most important purpose is that it provides a certain unusual experience to the new meditator, of reverence and devotion, that they will remember. It’s intended to create an expectation for, and to reinforce the supposedly life-changing ben […]

Introduction: Demystifying the Puja, a 3 part series February 23, 2021
The Transcendental Meditation instruction ritual, the puja, establishes for new meditators the dominance and authority of TM’s founding tradition and organization, and satisfies a traditional religious belief that the benefits of TM will only come by way of a tangible offering made to the primary, supreme divine beings of Hinduism. In an effort to maintain a […]

You can't spell TM without SCI February 16, 2021
A formal reckoning with attempts by the David Lynch Foundation (DLF) to place Transcendental Meditation programs in public schools, defying the fact that a Federal court injunction prohibited TM instruction within them on Constitutional grounds, is long overdue. The flaws in the Malnak v. Yogi opinions, leaving unaddressed the possibility that TM could be co […]

Maharishi's many euphemisms for "God" September 29, 2020
The TM organization has for almost a half-century now denied the religious nature of its methods and doctrine, almost to the point of absurdity. The fact of the matter is that almost all of the TM promotional material - books, websites, the content of introductory lectures - is littered with various synonyms for, what people in much of the world call “God.” […]
