TM is totally secular, a purely mechanical technique. There are no religous beliefs in the practice of TM. Apparently the Maharishi got really mixed up and got many TM teachers all confused. You guys screwed up the tradition and got it banned from public schools. You need to shut up with all the religous metaphysics: it adds not single thing to the basic practice, except to confuse the people. The Maharishi should have retired to a cave back in 1964 and gone into silence. You didn't keep the teaching pure - you had to mess it up and try to make it into a religion. Now it's all a failure, the laughing stock of the entire planet. > > The practice of TM has always been secular. > > There are no "demons" mentioned in SBAL and > > no "gods" or "angels" have been mentioned by > > name or even described.
