We have our first commentator unpon
Maharishi. That was pretty good. However, it's also said that ligh and dark
cannot co-exist and so raising sattva destroys tamas. Moreover, it's said that
we are without the three gunas altogether in turiya, so how do these square
pegs fit the round holes you molded?

Hi Rick,
The benefit to the destructive tendencies
is a temporary one, only because all of life is supported by the practice
of TM. In times past, the destructive tendencies would not gain such a
foothold, but now, as the current Dalai Lama says in his book, In My Own
Words, when speaking about aggression and competitiveness, "...These
mental processes easily translate into actions, breeding belligerence.
Such processes have been going on in the human mind since time
immemorial, but their execution has become more effective under modern
conditions." This is what Maharishi is forestalling, the temporary lift
that negative tendencies enjoy in a lively environment. Just as sattva can
bind with rajas, so can tamas.
