Here's a question that came up first on another forum
of which I am a member.  The responses were interesting,
and members have since posted it on a number of other
forums -- Christian, Buddhist, Jewish, Muslim, Hindu,
atheist, Native American -- in which the responses were
equally interesting and even more varied.  

So I'm posting it here to see what the responses might
be on this primarily TM-centered forum.  I think we all
know what Maharishi's answer would be to the question;
he has made it clear many times in the past.  I'm just
curious to know what individual people here think.  The
original question, posed by a Tibetan Buddhist monk, was:

  "If you knew of a spiritual practice that you were
   *certain* produced beneficial effects to all who
   practice it, and produced equally beneficial effects
   for the world as a whole, and you had the ability to
   legislate the practice and force everyone to do it,
   would it be ethical to do so; that is, would such an 
   approach be in accord with the dharma?"
