Donovan is still around? Oh my god! I had no idea. I didnt know he 
was a meditator either. I loved Brother Sun Sister Moon.

There don't seem to be as many celebrities endorsing TM anymore like 
they did in the "old" days. Doug Henning was the resident celebrity 
when I was in FAirfield. Plus visits from Mike Love, Stephen 
Collins, etc.

You think raising the price to meditate was inspired? Do you think 
the movement needed those big donations? For what? I would rather 
see people learning to meditate. There are no TM centers anymore, so 
the local meditators really have no sense of community, and no one 
is learning to meditate either. We bought some land locally for a 
Peace Palace a few years ago, but there is no money to build 
anything on it. So nothing is happening. Another TM project dead in 
the water. Where did all that big money go to?
