IF I made a mistake about your past involvement with the TM movement, then I did. No biggie. I've only got your current persona to bounce off of, not the one from decades ago, before you started believing that sitting on your butt doing your TM program made you better than people who have lives. But I think that we on this forum are well within our rights to "consider the source" when dealing with claims from you. You have stated often that you see no problem with you being admitted to any official TMO flying hall. As has been pointed out to you often, admittance requires a "screening" during which you will be asked whether you have been involved with or have seen spiritual teachers other than Maharishi. You have. That's a given. You don't think there would be any problem with being admitted to a TMO flying hall. That's also a given, stated by you many times. To me that says that you are willing to lie about your involvement with these other teachers to get into the flying halls. Right? Therefore, although I think that there is some *possibility* that what you claim about your experience teaching and doing the work that kept the TMO going for so many years until it learned that it could bring in even more money by badger- ing the TM faithful and scaring them into giving them money for nothing could be true, there is also an equal possibility that for you relating your "experience" of teaching might just be one more thing you have no qualms about lying about. But, as I said before, if you actually did put your butt on the line instead of just sitting on it, good for you.
