Fotunately, Maharishi gave us his "we are satisfied" answer in response to a question during a press conference several years ago in which the questioner asking him whether it was okay that he had learned TM from a non-TMO TM teacher. Maharishi's answer? "We are satisfied"...there was a wee bit more to it than that but that was the crux of it. Perhaps some enterprising TM teacher will multiply himself and offer an inexpensive TM taught in line with the purity of the teaching to millions across the world. I'll be satisfied if that would happen...will you?
