Judith, I can't help but be amused by your rhetorical antics. Evidently, your acquaintances find you amusing as well. A real riot I suppose. Thank you very much for "trying to save me from myself." I'm sure in some misguided way you are sincere. However, you may want to be a bit more diligent in getting your own house in order before you presume to have the skill to fix mine. Of course, self reflection has never been a strong suit with religious zealots and I suppose you're no different. Okay, it is fairly evident that you don't have an original thought in your head. I welcomed you to express one and instead you stooped to childish name calling. You have indicated that I would be mortified... petrified... and probably psychedelicized if I read someone else's opinions from a few weeks ago. Rather than that, why don't you just sum up their thoughts and hit me with your best shot. Surely, if the opinions are that well stated, it will be easy for you to make spiritual mince-meat of me. Judging by your "true believer" sense of confidence that shouldn't be to difficult. I have stated some fairly inflammatory opinions based on my observations of Mr. Varma and his delusional organization over the past 40 years. I don't expect to change anyone's opinion. But, perhaps there is someone stuck in the TM Movement's sticky web who will recognize that my thoughts are not without merit. Perhaps not. Who knows? Who cares? Call me old fashioned, but I find all manifestations of tyranny, fascism, and religious oppression repugnant no matter what institutionalized form it takes. The cloak of spirituality is probably the most offensive because it preys on the sincerity of good people and betrays their trust. If Mr. Varma was not guilty of this... I am all ears. But please... spare me the I am " REEEEEEELY STOOPID" if I don't go along with you on blind faith speech. It embarrasses the forum members who may share your views and it makes you appear as a simpleton.
