Although most of the TM'ers on this group are pretty bright, I would have to say there are many TM'ers that 'are' ignorant when it comes to Yoga! You see, MMY never taught all the limbs of Yoga, nor did he teach TM in the context of Yoga, in spite of his comment it IS Yoga. He taught it in the context of Science, therefore there are actually TM'ers who think the OM vibration is somehow evil since MMY recommended against it (for householders). There are also TM'ers who think they don't need Religion though MMY himself says it's necessary in the SOB. As a result there are morally lazy meditators who don't practice any form of ethical development. I remember one tm'er on alt-tm who didn't think the chakras played a role in TM, again because MMY never *formally* taught that, (until a recent lecture surfaced with him discussing it), I could go on. Vaj has some good points, albeit, he's a little uppity.
