Just for the record. I do TM. I love TM. I just wish people that
did research on TM would
take the time to design better research rather than an endless

don't have much meaning to people that understand research. This
type of research would
not even be accepted for a master's thesis. That's how poor the
design is. I wouldn't even
accept it for a research project at the community college where I
teach. I'd tell them to
change the method to include a control group. Not difficult to do at
all. As Vaj pointed out,
have a matched control group close their eyes for 20 minutes twice a
day.
Well, in the case of ADHD students, that might not be possible.
How convenient!
