MMY's goal has always been larger than you or me!! Now we are seeing the real MMY and what his real goals are!! Institutional transformation to Vedic culture, that has most likely always been his goal! TM/lite was just a teaser Shemp, comeon!! MMY is not a personal Guru, for a good reason, that ain't his bag! It's still the finest Vedic/Hinduism has to offer, I suppose, although there may be even more to it...look at the advanced techniques, not only do you have to effortlessly repeat a whole host of syllables but in a certain area of the body as well, where is all of this leading? and like lots of other things MMY started, they were never finished!
