Well, after 20 years of day in and day out practice maybe you will have convinced yourself that it works. I know people well who have done TM for more than 30 years religiously and they are convinced it works too. But I look at them, listen to them, know them, and I am not so convinced. At the very least, I am convinced that it isn't one size fits all. Some of my long term meditator friends profess happiness, so OK, I won't mess with that. Some are not so happy. Only one is successful economically or with their marriages. None are terribly healthy for their age--all mid to late 50s. One has cancer that will end his life. You must know that people are here for varied reasons, yes? Do you believe that TM is good for everyone?
