There's a deep-seated prejudice in America against ritual trance-induction, unless its alcohol induced.

Seratonin is generated in the brain during TM practice, so there's no need to procure illegal chemicals. Maharishi has made a complete program available with hundreds of organic substances and potions available for self medication. He's got more potions that Carter had 'Little Liver Pills'! Among the brain's many jobs is to be your own chemist. The brain produces more than 50 identified active drugs. Some of these are associated with memory, others with intelligence, still others are sedatives. Endorphin is the brain's painkiller, and it is 3 times more potent than morphine. More than 100,000 chemical reactions go on in your brain every second! Read more: Subject: No, Im not on Soma!
